tyrant25: To complain to the Home Office, you should send an email to [email protected]. Make sure to include your personal details, GWF reference number, a detailed description of the problem you are complaining about (I suggest you write this in paragraphs with sufficient details and points to counter the refusal reasons), and attach your ing documents. Hope it goes well. |

Good afternoon all. I am finding this trend very useful. A big thank you to all the contributors. I am ing my husband for a visiting visa application and I provided my bank statements. We intend to travel together. I already have my visa. I got a call from the bank today saying they want to confirm if I provided the statements in of his application as they have to confirm to the visa office. I thought it was a bit weird as I wasn’t aware this was a thing . That was all she asked and I answered in the affirmative. I just want to know if this is normal procedure as I haven’t heard about it before. Thank you.

Tailadivaaaa:It would be weird if you didn’t provide your documentation for his application and out of the blues, home office goes to your bank— you and him provided the information so they are checking what was provided to his application. Standard procedure. |
saint4belles: 12:07pm On May 09 |
Tailadivaaaa: banks hardly call customers to confirm if they drop statement for sponsor or not ,i guess this is a new development. |
saint4belles: 12:10pm On May 09 |
Abbebbay: Hopefully it would be goodnews cos i believe if they want to refused they would have done that already ,maybe there is a slight delay in processing and the good friday ,easter holiday and bank holiday also affected. 2 Likes |

saint4belles: Depends on the bank, as well as the customer's relationship with their officer. 1 Like |

giselle237: Okay then. I guess it’s a new one. Thank you for your response! |
Tailadivaaaa: 12:24pm On May 09 |
saint4belles: I thought it was weird too. I believe it’s a new one. |

Abbebbay: Biometrics on 17th April, Ikeja. Decision email yesterday 8th May. Collected today 9th May. It was successful. 2 yrs given I got 6 months, which I used once last year after 2 previous refusals. After my last year UK visit, I've also made 2 separate Euro trips. I applied with the usual documents, but didn't write cover letter this time around. Last year I wrote detailed cover letter addressing previous refusals. This time, I packaged my thoughts in the extra notes column at the last section of the form. Documents - hotel reservation - employment letter - promotion letter - letter from employer indicating I've been approved to go on leave and also that employer is sponsoring the vacation. - Employer statement - Employer CAC documents & tax clearance. - 4 months personal statement with 2m plus. - 6 months personal USD statement with $3,000 plus. - family documents -marriage and children birth certificates. - previous visas and stamps. - pictures taken during previous travel and also that of family. - monthly expense declaration of 1m. - budget for trip 3,500 pounds. -Personal amount committed towards trip 500 pounds. Did not put cover letter, ticket reservation, pension , personal tax clearance and landed property this time around eventhough I put all of them for my 1st UK visa last year. I saw space to educational qualifications, which I'm not sure I noticed and ed in time past. Anyways, I ed my BSc & MSc cert there. Thank you Nairaland folks for your free advice and tips from time to time. 🙏🏾 🙏🏾 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Good evening all, I wanted to ask if anyone here has ever sent a complaint letter to home office regarding their visa refusal and it got overturned. I also want to know how long the whole process took.

Hi guys, So i got a response from UKVI from the complaint i raised last week. They acknowledged that the Entry clearance manager has agreed that my application should be reconsidered. They also noted it does not mean the refusal will be overturned but a reconsideration is ongoing and even though they cannot give a timeframe for how long it would take, that i will be notified of their decision. Even if they come back with the same decision, they should give a concrete reason that can be addressed in the next application. I'll keep you guys updated when a decision is reached. Please can one apply for a visa renewal when the current visa has not expired? my twin's 6 months visa expires on the 21st of this month and he is looking at visiting by month end or latest first week of June. He wants to know if he can put in an application for renewal of the visa before it expires this month so he can get the updated visa and travel by month end. Thank you. Knowlegeseeking: 3 Likes |

She wants come along with my 2 nieces to spend the summer holiday. While i have 'managed' to package my mum's application to the best of my abilities. I am somewhat confused on how to do outline the finances part for my 12/14yr old nieces. I have attached the finance section. Kindly guide me on the best budget amount to put for minor. I read somewhere here that i should put £1/#1 in a section here. N.B their dad who resides in the U.S will be providing bank statement as sponsor. While i will be the accommodating them and providing payslips.
