A LinkedIn member send a private message to my LinkedIn page...asking if I need a job and o said yes......she send an email that I should forward my CV and cover letter to the mail after 2days i received the above email and two document starting the type of Job's available and the contract form to sign and scan back within 7days..


But my question is I was asked to get UK labour Certificate....how can I go about it


Obviously its a scam.

Labour certificate is like admission letter, the company has to be apply for that if they can satisfy the authority that there is no UK or EU citizen who can do that job.

Don’t worry, after three or four days, you will receive another mail informing you of how they can get you someone to help you with the so called document. The person is their so called agent in Nigeria and you have to pay the person. It was good your sought help anyway. Big Scam

Okay sir. Please what can I do? Though my friend wish to support me with £200 while I spend £600 from my salary. But I was advised not to involve my friend in supporting my trip. I also made 810k which was paid into my account by my Estate Agent from my 2-flat property.

@Justwise please respond to this sir. Thanks.

Good morning great people. Last week I asked some questions about the possibility of getting Visa for our 2 staffs who are attending a free tech show in April. After careful consideration of your advice we have searched for a paid tech show coming up in June.

The company will be paying the staffs admission to the event, flight, accommodation and feeding. Each of them earn between 300-350k/monthly.


So my questions;

1) What are the documents to be supplied by the firm. We usually pay staffs salaries into their accounts without payslips or tax deduction.

2) What are the documents to be supplied by the applicants themselves?.

3) is it a must for us to get them a taxpayer I'd with tax clearance?

4) Is it better to transfer the cost of their travelling, hotel,feeding and so on directly to their accounts and let them handle the visa themselves, if so what are the documents for them to apply with?

If you did standard, I think you'll just have to chill. I submitted on the 2nd Dec and I've not heard anything yet. Called twice and a decision hasn't been made. I'd advise not to waste money calling them honestly.

I'm going through the same, please how do I contact them. I would appreciate the contact number

I've collected my passport already with Visa granted. I collected it last Friday. You can call UKVI on +442034811736. The TLScontact number seems suspicious, I wont advice calling, unless you can confirm. You can walk in to check if a decision has been made already.

Can you extend that to 2wks holiday rather than 6days?

Okay sir. Thanks for your response. So is £700 okay to be stated as my cost for the trip for the 2 weeks sir without telling them my friend would be contributing or can i say £650 so they won't say £700 is almost 2× of my disposable income of N168k? Because my friend plan to give me £200 to support my trip. Also please are they going to consider my income of 810k I got paid on January 2 for year 2020 rent ( January - December) from my 2-flat property?

Since your friend will be accommodating you £650 should take care of ticket which the only thing you will be spending money on.

Submit documents to support that 810K because it will help your application as an additional income.

It really makes no sense.
Was it recently he joined the firm?
Are there unexplained gaps or periods in the bank statement suggesting lack of monthly payment at a particular time?
Did he declare how much he intends to spend on the trip?

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by Skrskr: 8:05am On Jan 14, 2020
Thanks a lot, chief. Really appreciate your input.

With regards to 1. The salary reduction was because I no longer pay for my accommodation, the company does now.
2. With regards to spending 2 months instead of one. What actually happened was that I planned to spend 1 month for my mom's graduation which was in October. However, my visa was refused due to erratic judgement from the ECO claiming I did not have enough funds. I contested this refusal and by the time they overturned the decision, it was already past the graduation time and the period specified in the visa. So technically, I never lied about spending 1 month then spend 2. That was not the case. But I do understand what you are saying.

3. Thanks. No, I can't lie and don't intend to. Moreover, the form asks for date of entry and period spent in the UK which I correctly input the 2 months (I am yet to pay or submit until I am back in Nigeria).

4. Point fully noted. Can I just say I'm coming for another 2 months then? Please note that I am not planning to come here until April when my current visa would have almost been over.

5. Point fully noted. Thanks, boss

@Skrskr
This is painful. It’s like you want to get a denial...
1) your salary has drastically reduced so it’s obvious your circumstances have changed and can affect the outcome of your visa. You keep downplaying this part meanwhile herein lies the key to you getting your new visa renewed. Every visa application is assessed on the grounds of your application at that time.
If you are found not to be eligible for a visa, whether you have come to the UK before or not... you will not be given another visa on grounds that you don’t qualify at that time.

2. ‘You also said you didn’t violate your visa as you came to the UK for just two months out of the 6’... pls my dear when u filled the application that got you the visa did you tell them in that same application that you would be staying for 2 months? If no.. this also questions your ties to Nigeria and your credibility and you will need to explain it very well inorder to have a successful renewal. Again, don’t joke as you might have shot your ties to Nigeria slightly in the leg by this act.

3)They have your data of when you left the UK because they have access to the flight details of how you left... please don’t lie in your new application about this as you will be required to fill this part.
Simply explain to them in your new cover letter why you stayed for 2 months... they will overlook it if they feel you didn’t violate anything.

4. What is a 2 years visa? A 2 years visa still doesn’t imply that you can stay for 6 months at a stretch or 3 months at a stretch?
If this happens, that means your ties to Nigeria are weak and that to UK are strong, meaning you are a potential immigrant... what do you think will be the outcome of the application?? refusal!

5. Booking a one way ticket? ahh my friend! This is where you finally kill yourself as it shows that you dont have any plans of coming back, I would be surprised if you pass the border.

Pls re-orientate your mind, don’t allow them to lose trust in you so soon. Approach this application with same dexterity and carefulness as you did the 6 months own and if well done ofcourse you can get a 2 yrs visa ryt now. This is only my opinion as I am not an ECO.

1. Are you suggesting that your employees does not pay tax?

2. Employment letter, salary account and letter from the company detailing the trip

3. No

4. They need to draw budget for the trip then you transfer the money into their accounts but that needs to be explained in the letter.

Have your company ever sent any of your worker outside Nigeria before?

Okay sir. I have the land sale agreement, survey and plan. I also have the copies of power of attorney given to my Estate Agent and Tenancy Agreement . The money was transferred to me from his corporate account. I will extend the trip to 2weeks as advised. Thanks.
