Honestly.... There is an element of luck/grace involved because they come up with all sorts of different reasons for refusal. It is well

Thank you very much ma'am...most obliged!

Cashmadam:


Your daughter is a minor (I believe) and she's not expected to have savings. So, just indicate that she doesn't have any savings.

For her, simply include your statement of to show where the funds will come from. It's pretty simple for minors.

Don't mind them, they have seen my purpose travel date have elapse before they start processing my application. they just look for one excuse
Imagine biometric done on 21st April, travelling on 26th May, return on 31st May and they made their decision on 3rd June as per refusal letter date what do i except.

Please when making a paid call for inquiries, is the payment via phone airtime or what channel?

Kindly provide guidance

HRprof:
Refusal latter drop this morning I know that will be the outcome because my plan visit date for event has past already because of their delay in visa processing. Biometric 21 April

Refusal Reason here for others to learn.
The decision
I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of paragraph(s) V4.2 of Appendix V: Immigration Rules for visitors because:
You state that you intend to come to the UK for 5 days as a business visitor.
You have indicated that you are self-employed and receive an additional income of 1200000.00 NGN (£2,304 @ oanda.com) from other sources per year. In of your application, you have submitted ing documents including your personal bank statements and certificate of registration from the Corporate Affairs Commission. However, the ing information does not demonstrated you pay tax on your income earned with a recent income tax clearance certificate for me to be satisfied of your personal circumstances. In addition, the documents presented are not evidence that your business has current assets or profitably, there is no evidence of the trading activity of your company, its liabilities. The ing information provided does not clearly establish your personal circumstances for me to be satisfied of your intentions of entering the UK. This damages the credibility of your application and raises concerns about your intentions to travel to the UK at this time.
In determining your application, I have to consider whether you intend to leave the UK at the end of your visit. After an overall assessment of your visa application, am not satisfied if you granted leave to enter as a visitor, that you will comply with all of the conditions attached to any such leave or that you will leave the UK on completion of the proposed visit.
In the light of above, I am not satisfied that your personal and financial circumstances are as stated by you. I am therefore not satisfied that you intend to leave the UK at the end of your visit and that you are genuinely seeking entry as a visitor. Your application is therefore refused under Paragraph V4.2 (a) and (c) of Appendix V of the Immigration Rules.

So their excuse is Tax payment but not specific if is personal tax or business

If you have applied for a business visa, Did u submit your companys bank statement? , did you submit company receipts , invoices etc to show that the business is running perfectly? If NO... Dont bother sending any reconsideration ... Yourannual earning is too small sef. 1.2m in a year? That's 100k a month. it wont work .

na wa oo

i apply for conference and i submitted company bank statement including company bank reference letter, introduction letter from my ant and the transfer payment receipt from my company bank to my personal because i indicated that my company is paying for the trip since is a business trip which is also reflected on my personal . i don't need to submit invoice or company receipt i am not into buying and selling lol my business is ACTIVE on CAC that's enough.
Again read the refusal letter well, the 1.2m they are talking about is additional source of income because i stated i have other source of income which is my farmland and i include my farmland documents as evidence. Meanwhile they did not mention my main income on the refusal letter.
However, i am not seeking for any consideration this is just for others to learn from. I am not a UK kind of person i have travelled to other part of Europe.

Hello All,

Please what's the best way for paying for UK visa fees at the present as fees are quoted in USD?
Do I need to use my USD card or can I still use my normal Naira debit card?

My last UK visa application was in 2012.

Thank for the response.

No i did not submit any payslip, i am self employed as well receive monthly pay from my business to my personal as salary which also reflected on my personal bank statement i submitted. They are looking for Tax clearance certificate which i did not include because i though the annual return filling will be enough since people were complaining about ACTIVE and INACTIVE on CAC website so i concentrated on that one and forget Tax Clearance which i dont know if is for personal Tax or business Tax .

I have been blocked out of commentaries on the news pages. What could be wrong?

My comments have never targeted any tribal people or business opponents.

Kindly check and restore my full status ASAP

I am not a political warrior or tribally inclinated.

Cashmadam:

Hello all,

Thank you for your response. Please do you have any idea how long this wait can be for?

I'm prettry sure you will get the port this week. We experienced a similar situation earlier in the year. The outstanding port arrived about two weeks later so I'm surprised your son's port is not out yet. Don't worry, you will get it this week by God's grace. Keep praying. I can imagine how anxious you are but you can only pray.

I've just received a refusal mail. Unfortunately the reasons given are not accurate. I've requested for istrative review immediately.

The decision

I have refused your application for a visit visa because I am not satisfied that you meet the requirements of paragraph(s) V 4.2 – 4.10 of Appendix V because:

You state that you plan to visit the UK for 10 days tourism visit.

I note that you were previously issued a visa but each application is assessed on its own merits and any information submitted.

You state that you are self-employed, you earn 6000000.00 NGN (£11,400 on Oanda.com current exchange rates) per month with no additional income stated. You have monthly living costs of 135000.00 NGN (£256.50) and propose to spend 700000.00 NGN (£1,330) on this visit.

You have provided information regarding your employment and your financial circumstances with a business and personal bank information. I note the transaction history in your personal bank statement from Providus Bank ( number ending 3239), shows credits. However the ing information does not demonstrate how these credits / deposits are linked to your declared source of income. This means that I am not able to the activity in your personal bank statement as income derived from your self-employment. The information provided therefore does not satisfactorily demonstrate the source of these funds.

From the information on your application form and the documents you have submitted, I am not satisfied that you intend to leave the United Kingdom or that you are genuinely seeking entry as a visitor. Your application is therefore refused under paragraphs 4.2 (a) and (c) of Appendix V of Immigration Rules for Visitors
