Vicjustice:

I don't think anybody ever said that "salary without tax is unverifiable", what i know about is a business that doesn't comply with tax regulation can not be evaluated.
A person can apply for a visa without payslips provided that his bank statement of account displays regular incomes which are verifiable. Therefore, as an employee, it is not necessary for Visa Officer to investigate your tax record, and investigation is only possible if they have your payslips

Hi Vicjustice/justwise and all,
I want to apply for a UK tourist Visa but before I do I want to ask a few questions.
I'm self employed, I have 12 workers, I'm single, and 29 years. This are the documents I intend to submit.

C of O
Company Certificate & Memorandum,
Personal Statement of Account & Corporate Account,
TIN letter from FIRS,
Receipts for goods imported,
Pictures,
Local Government Levy,
Invoice & receipts,
Job orders
Company Vehicle particulars ,
Hotel Reservation.

Kindly advise if I need to add some additional documents . How important is it for me to submit tax clearance certificate as I don't currently have one. I tend to use my personal account more often. Should I submit both or just my personal account. Thanks so much for your much anticipated response.

Regards

Hi, spyder880,
I have been a ghost member and I have been following your works for sometime. I have recently been giving a ridiculous quotation for the construction of a 2 bed room BQ on a DRY land. I will like you to please help me check and balance. Below is the quotation i got. Please take note that labour isn't included.

[b]Greetings to tzetzefly and all other contributors to this great thread.
I intend to visit the US in Jan 2015 for a deserved vacation. I'm a Custom Clothier. I have been in business since 2006. I have been in this particular business since 2009. I'm in my late 20's single never married, no baby Momma so obviously no kid. I run a personal and corporate account. I have receipts for levies i have paid to various government agencies since i started operation i.e. trade payment, local govt levy, signage levy etc. I tend to use my personal account more often. I have a 3 landed property but only one of them has a C of O. I run 2 shops. My monthly turn over combined is between 600-900k. I have 10 workers in all. I have some other incomes from my other business that usually comes in lump sum every once in a while. I have only traveled to Ghana for a day and Cotonou for also a day but I may be visiting Dubai later this year. I don't have much of travel experience or free time due to the nature of my business I have to work all year round . All my staffs go on 2 weeks break every first 2 weeks of the year so I intend to join them this time around. I will like to Visit NY, Hawaii and Washington during our next break which is Jan 2015. I intend to sponsor myself. Please what are my chances of getting a VISA ? Should I apply as a tourist or have a family or friend invite me? I personally will prefer to apply as a tourist. Kindly advise me also on when to apply and what I need to do before then . I like to plan ahead. Thanks for your much anticipated response.[/b]
