Thank you for your response. I filled £1150 for each of us as expenses,I hope it is not too much,though my can cater for that.
Also since I am into buying and selling in a shop,most payment is in cash which I will later deposit into my personal , all these income and expenses not easy for me to calculate. Can you assist? I have sent a mail to your moniker

Add a paragraph in your cover letter to fully explain why you run your business with mostly cash. They know Nigeria is a cash driven Country so a simple explaination will make sense.

I have an interview on the 24th and I have booked my IELTS for 2nd of July, can I go on with the interview or I withdraw my interview based on I have not written IELTS.

Best you attend the interview after your IELTS. By the way, what do you need the IELTS for?

Candybright:

My first time in UK, I flew in into Manchester, I didn't even spend up to 1min with immigration. I guess it depends on who you meet

Manchester is a smaller airport and usually calmer than Heathrow. It really depends on the immigration officer - not the airport.

Cashmadam:


Good morning. The mention is adequate. Museum, London Eye, Buckingham Palace etc... No need for reservation.

Thank you @Cashmadam

Hi ,

Please all the gurus and experienced travelers kindly help answer this .

I have always traveled to UK through Edinburgh airport cos my family were based in Scotland and i schooled there too . I'm planning to use Heathrow airport for the first time, don't have any families in the UK anymore they moved to Canada.

I'm travelling to UK as a tourist with 2 kids and we will spend 4 weeks but in our visa application form i stated 7 days, will this affect us at Heathrow airport ? i never had issues at Edinburgh airport was never even asked how long i plan to stay .

I have heard a lot about London Heathrow and want to go prepared . I also made arrangements for a short term vacation rental for 4 weeks cos i will need to cook and be more comfortable as i have minors, so this means I'm not going to the address stated on visa application and i even had to change travel date as the cost on British airways was very expensive for the date i filled on visa application, i moved travel date to a less expensive date in July and our return date is in August.

1. will it be an issue that we changed the length of stay in London form 7 days to 4 weeks?
2. will change of address also be an issue ?
3. must we have prove of accommodation printed? the flat we will be staying belongs to my husband's child hood friend , we can provide address but no booking evidence cos we will pay him directly ? what will you suggest we do?

Guys, for someone that recently graduated from medical school and started house job.

Kindly advise when to write ielts, plab 1 and plab 2 to be able to get slot.

Goal is to write plab 2 Nov 2023 in uk.

@leef2022 @giselle237 and other gurus please assist

You can go for the IELTs asap u ready, so you could book a seat for plab 1 for March or May in November 2022 when seats for plab 1 for 2023 are released. Getting seats for plab 2 is not much of hassle but plab 1.

Hello guru, In the house,
I having a serious issue and need your help.
I applied for a visit visa to UK , I wanted to attend my younger brother graduation ceremony but the visa was refuse on a ground of credibility. This is the decision.

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 because
 You state you intend to travel to the UK for 3 days for the purpose of attending your
brother’s graduation ceremony.
 You state you are employed with Nestlé Nigeria PLC with a monthly income of
250000 NGN (£480, in an exchange rate of £1 = 519.69NGN, oanda.com). You have
provided a letter of employment and payslips in of your application. You have
also provided a bank statement under your name with a closing balance of
2,407,398.31 NGN (£4,622.20). However, I note there are no salary deposits in this
. I also note there are several large deposits in this which do not
correlate with your stated income and therefore the origins of the funds are no clear.
Therefore I am not satisfied you have provided satisfactory information in regards to
your personal and financial circumstances in Nigeria.
 In light of all of the above I am not satisfied as to your intentions in wishing to travel
to the UK now. I am not satisfied that you are genuinely seeking entry for a purpose
that is permitted by the visitor routes, not satisfied that you will leave the UK at the
end of the visit. Your application is refused under Appendix V4.2 (a) and (c) of the
Immigration Rules.

I did not include my salary statement but I have it , meanwhile I don't keep many in it , I only keep money in my saving .

I also have several issions from university in UK to resume by September but now all of them are denying me CAS due to the refusal.

Pls, I have plan to reapply this week for a visit and add my salary .
The former decision those not give me right to appeal or istrative review.


Pls help on what is necessary to do.

Thank you all

PBT academy IELTS. How you prepare and material you use depends on your English abilities. You can search YouTube for ielts tutors and videos for prep.

1. will it be an issue that we changed the length of stay in London form 7 days to 4 weeks? NO, if the question comes up at POE- you should say the truth because if things go left and you say something else at the border and your return ticket is requested and 4 wks is seen then you are onto something else
2. will change of address also be an issue ? No, as long as there is a valid and confirmed new address
3. must we have prove of accommodation printed? the flat we will be staying belongs to my husband's child hood friend , we can provide address but no booking evidence cos we will pay him directly ? what will you suggest we do?
Whatever you do, if you are held down by border agents about your accommodation there should be proof that it is sorted for the whole of your trip + you should have the friend’s readily available incase they decide to ask + total funds and more handy
Truth is that POE experiences are so different and there can never be a way to predict which way things will go. Keep it simple, honest, have all the funds you quoted on your application if possible in cash and all you said on your forms.
