ab4m: Spending £100 on food once in a while is in order but doing that daily is abnormal only if you are a premier league footballer. If you eat that much daily then you have problem with food. One shouldn't put that in visa application as part of budget breakdown. 4 Likes |

Hello house, Justwise, please my dad want to renew his 5yrs UK visa but my question now is what document will he submit now that he has retired (self-employed; contractor). |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by justwise(m): 2:10pm On Jan 25, 2019 |
Tintas: That makes no sense visa while, why would you pay yourself salary as a single business owner? How will you convince the ECO that you worth salary of 325K as a business owner? This is like interviewing yourself for a job and determining how much to pay yourself. My initial question was..how much do you make in a month? |

I wrote a letter that I don’t earn salaries rather I pay myself monthly allowances and the letter was drafted my company lawyer. Tintas: |

Tintas: I give up as you are not willing to answer that question. Somebody else can try. Good luck. |

Bros this your spending on feeding is just out of place and cannot fly for a visa application. Pls tell us the hotel or restaurant you eat...and is it African dishes or continental? Thinking the restaurant/meals are meant for celebs. ab4m: |

Hello, I plan to visit UK in April about easter period (For 7 days) to see my girlfriend although i plan to use hotel booking when applying. I am looking at applying last day in February (About A month away). I earn about 300,000 monthly (about 5 million per annum including other benefits). I have about 900,000 as account balance now (Salary account) and should have about 1.3m by end of february. Do you think the account balance is sufficient and also not sort of lodgement? NB:I have been to the UK 3 times between 2011 and 2014 for both studies and visiting @justwise, @FrontPageLawyer, @OGreene, @ekpotek, @ty01 |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by ab4m: 4:47pm On Jan 25, 2019 |
tasho105: Let me clarify that the question is how much will all cost to travel to and from UK. The answer is not for visa processing as am not an expert in that area. As for your question, the amount is not for food only including ijekukuje (lol). I stay in the north wella and our mouth no dey stay one place, so we eat anything mouth see. No insult � to anyone ooo I beg. |

justwise: “Classy” but this alone I think can even be his/her undoing, a budget that will sound fictitious to the ECO.... |

Tintas: That is it. Paying yourself salary as a sole proprietorship. Even me sef I won't accept that as a VO. How old is your business? Do you have a business account? How long do u start paying yourself? |

The expiry date on my CoS is 11 October. I came into UK in September, can I still use it for my dependants application? I have requested for maintenance letter fron my employer but they said they have not been giving maintenance letters to others who have been bringing in their dependants, that they've been using only CoS since it's already written on the CoS that they would provide maintenance. 1 Like 1 Share |

[quote author=oluayebenz post=75116035] That is it. Paying yourself salary as a sole proprietorship. 1.I pay myself monthly allowance for my expenses. Even me sef I won't accept that as a VO. How old is your business? 2. My business is 4 years now. Company papers n taxes in tact. Do you have a business account? 3. Yes I do have 2 business accounts but I didn’t attach any. I thought since my monthly allowance transfers showed credits from my business account it’s ok. How long do u start paying yourself? 4. For 3 years now[quote] |

justwise: Thanks for your help sir. When I read those paragraphs I was thinking it was only applicable to those applying for Tier 2 Extension/Leave to remain. I don't know it's also applicable to those reapplying for entry clearance after the 12month cooling - off period. Thanks and God bless you sir. |

Hello, Please what's the cost of prime time appointment at TLS Ikeja if you are paying with card at the VAC. I know it says £78 online if you are paying online. But I know it's a different fee if you are paying with card at the centre. Please anyone help me with the current price. Thanks. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by nomad26: 2:55pm On Jan 26, 2019 |
I'll answer the first part of your question: the expiry date on your CoS doesn't matter for your dependants' application. The CoS is just proof of your sponsorship. As for the second part, I think it should be ok since it is stated on your CoS, but maybe try to verify from your colleagues who have gone through similar process. Heritagee: |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Mamatukwas: 9:08pm On Jan 26, 2019 |
nomad26: Sir are you sure about this please? The COS is only valid for 3 months from date of issue after which if appying for dependents you can’t use the number of an expired COS and you will be like asked. @Heritagee what I believe most people who do not apply at the same time for their dependents do is they save up the money requirement and apply using that. Else you get a valid COS and that might cost you. Cheers. |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by nomad26: 10:45pm On Jan 26, 2019 |
Yes I am very sure, I was speaking from experience. My partner joined me many months after my CoS had arrived and we submitted it like that. The CoS is issued for the sponsored person NOT for the dependants so it doesn't have to be valid for the dependant's application. Mamatukwas: |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by oluayebenz: 10:51pm On Jan 26, 2019 |
[quote author=Tintas post=75122287][/quote] You should have submitted your business account that shows all income and expenditures of the company |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by Mamatukwas: 10:52pm On Jan 26, 2019 |
nomad26: Thanks for clarifying. Just to be clear, you also didn’t have to show any proof of funds for your partner? Just the confirmation of maintenance for dependents on the COS sufficed? |
