Hello Guys, Please I need your help.... So My Family and I are about to apply for Uk visa to go for my older sister's wedding in London. My parents and Older sister(The bride) are the sponsors, while me and my younger brother are dependents. My younger brother is still in secondary school so I think he is pretty much covered, As For me; I am a 24 years old and am a corper but am rounding up next week, I am also working but my income is not large enough to sponsor myself. Do you guys think I should apply as a corper considering the fact am rounding up soon and they might say I have no reason for me to return since I will have nothing to return to? OR should I apply as someone with a Job, the only issue I have with that is I do not earn enough and so my account statement is not great, so I do not want to show my account statement. I can only provide payslip. Another reason I am hesitant is I dont know if there will be an issue of a gainfully employed individual applying as a dependent. Thank you in anticipation |

Hello justwise, ekpotec and the Otha gurus in the house. I want to apply for my daughter and I to visit the UK for Xmas vacation and also a friend has invited my daughter and I for his daughter's birthday party coming up same December. He is not sponsoring us, i am sponsoring the whole trip and also booking a hotel. He's only sending an invite for the birthday. My question is, since he won't be sponsoring anything at all, what document is he to send to us to take to d embassy? We are spending just 7days. I'll await your responses. Thank you . |

stefanimay: 1. Not true. You don't need to notarise a sponsorship letter. 2. Reprint on coloured A4 paper. |

Juliansamuel: An invitation for a birthday party carries no weight at all. You're better off doing without it and applying for a holiday for tourism purposes on your own since you're ready and able to sponsor yourself. 2 Likes |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Cyberknight: 6:31am On Oct 06, 2018 |
AnonymousAAA: Given that the UK's visa policy is expressly based on applicants being considered to be potential immigrants until otherwise demonstrated, you know that as a 24 year old in your circumstances lacking most of the generally required ties to home you have a huge burden of proof to provide to show that you have sufficient reason to return home. Again, they don't consider 24 year olds to fall within the age bracket of dependents who can be sponsored for tourism/holiday purposes, so before you make any application consider if your own circumstances and not those of your parents would be sufficient for you to get a visa. |

bogolobango: The ECO simply does not trust your sources of income and finances as presented. I would suggest that you chilled for sometime. Straighten your finances. If you are self employed, you do not need to pay yourself a salary when your runing a one-man business. The ECO can easily see through this deceit. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 8:28am On Oct 06, 2018 |
kaysce: 1. If the saving can be traced as inflow from your salary account - Good 2. Will count as you return back as expected 3. Depends on your intention. Are you visiting someone and plans to stay with them? If not, you do not need any invite. 4. Explain this in your cover letter and pray that the ECO can understand it. Me I dont understand how can your company employ you when you owned it. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 8:33am On Oct 06, 2018 |
Fekonzy: Noone can tell. If you think that the refusal was unjustified. The best thing to do is to reapply immediately and add your recent communication with alumni president and the MP. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 8:39am On Oct 06, 2018 |
trooppper: 1. Yes 2. Yes and Yes 3. Make copies of all pages of the passport you are submitting both current and expired 4. None, expect UKVI may not keep to their stated timeline. Your previous visa and UK travel history will count unless you are careless about your application. |

DrAwo: There are many people on this forum applying for UK visa to write PLAB examination. Read back and your will find what they did. Some got the visa, others did not. The most important thing convincing the ECO that you will leave the UK after your visit. |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ekpotek: 9:01am On Oct 06, 2018 |
AnonymousAAA: At 24 and working you cannot claimed to be a dependent. So you will need to submit your own account and payslips even though your parent will sponsor the trip. This demonstrates your ties to Nigeria and your application will be assessed base you own circumstances and not your parents. |

So he'll have to do all that even when it is on the statement that the money left the a/c almost 90 days ago and was returned with interest. Thanks for the advice ���. You've been really helpful ekpotek: |

@ekpotek, @justwise. My daughters got their first 6 month UK visas early August 2018. We were meant to travel in September as a family but duty calls at my place of work and we couldn't make the trip as earlier planned. Now am planning we travel for Christmas this year, I hope there won't be any issue with my daughters at the airport here in ikeja and at the transit port as to why they have not use their visas since August. I have been to the uk thrice and still have a valid visa. Thanks for your response |

yispa: No problem. Enjoy your trip. |
