I've followed this thread for a while and have realized that a lot of people here were being denied visa.
please pardon my English but I have a suggestion.

why don't our people think of alternatives.(just my one cent. please don't criticize me o)
many people applying for visas on here have got at least 1m to 2m.

why not some of you come together and think of a very good business investment.
Two is better than one they say.

Draft good investment or business idea. put this money together and invest back home or alternatively invest in countries like UAE(Dubai) where you can easily get a 10 years residence permit as an investor and you can actually get your business license with as little as 3 to 5M within 1month at max and that give you 10 years residence permit. run the business for a while and then use your company documents to easily secure a visit visa from any other part of the world.
that s killing 2 birds with one stone, now you guys have a business making you money while you travel.
WORD IS CHEAP(DO YOUR RESEARCH BEFORE INVESTING IN ANY BUSINESS)

Thanks but no thanks. NOt Everyone that wants to travel wants to run away. There is a thread for business.

Hello, okay am an agric full time 5th year (finals) student, planning on visiting the UK for 2 weeks for my project research write up in some libraries in the uk and to visit some farms too as an agric student (i have letter from libraries and farms giving me permission to come) I also will visit cousins. Also have Supervisor and HOD letter, other school doc., job offer letter after graduation.

But I want to know, one of my cousin is sponsoring the entire trip and he has a company in the UK. as he runs his own company, surely payslip is out of the picture. I would like to know what he has to provide from his end thankx.

Keep disturbing them with emails and calls else you have to wait until you hear from them, though this is not uncommon.

He has to provide his bank , the details of his company, his tax details,his personal and business and indicate he is using his personal to sponsor u , bc he can not use his biz to sponsor y trip. He should provide his citizen port or permanent resident card and write a letter to eco that he is sponsoring u and will take charge or all expenses including feeding, accommodation and flight ticket.

Like how much is the expenses, I don't want to involve my parents until I can get enough so they can assist.

please i need help, i have posted this before but didn't get the response needed. I was denied UK visitor visa in 2013 under 320 7a because of a family photograph(parents and siblings) with a different background and it was seen as altered and deception was implored which was not the case because i had no idea that such a photograph will raise any dust. I was single then. Moving forward 6 years later am married to a Doctor and i have a son who is a U.S citizen. my wife is about to apply for Tier 2 to work as a Doctor in the UK and my son and i are her dependents. I was told that my previous visa denial under 320 7a will or might jeopardize the application Because denials under 320 7a is automatic ground for ban under 320 7b since it involves deception. I don't know how true this is, i was not given a ban, i was single then. As a family man whose circumstances has greatly improved with a wife and son and she is the principal applicant, i would like an expert opinion about this so we don't make any mistakes. we are almost there. Somebody please help !!!!

Yr parent can only assist you if they are working and have a healthy statement of , if they are not working or doing good biz how can they assist u? They can not assist u by giving them money when u av enof. Why not relax and finish y skool, do nysc , get a good job then u can apply by y self The money involved should be atleast 1M if you really want a UK visa. U av to make sure that y personal and financial circumstances satisfies the ECO.

Total expenses for 2weeks vacation should be 600k (£1200) since u are booking hotel the buget goes up but if someone will accommodate u the buget is less like 500k Note: depending on the salary u earn in a month, u can only dispose two months salary to meet y buget. Y buget should not be more than y two monthly salary.

Flight fare: estimated from 260 -280
Accommodation (hostel) 90k for 14nights
Living expenses and tickets for sightseeing , extra cash and shopping. All these will cover 600k. Then assuming u av 1M in y , 600k av gone for your buget to travel, while the remaining 400k will be what u will hold bk when u return to Nigeria. U can not show a closing balance of 600k and give a buget of 600k, u must always av a tangible amount left. I hope this help

Did u post the refusal letter on the forum? If no why not post so that experts can assist u. Meanwhile be positive and re-apply again by explaining details of the refusal. I am sure by God's grace u will get it.

He can not sponsor u with his company's , only his personal that he can sponsor u. He will let the eco know he has a company and provide all the necessary details of his company and present his personal too, it is with his personal he will use to sponsor y trip not the money made by his company. He should have his personal saving to sponsor u. I hope this help. Other mates can also contribute .

Hello everyone,
We are planning to apply for a visit visa for a wedding in UK for ending of next month. My dad is my sponsorer and the person that invited us to UK has also sent her bank statement and other documents. She is in charge of feeding, accommodation etc.
My dad has a closing blance of abt 15million and my mum has her own business.
Now the issue is I have once been denied a study visa for usa and I included it in the application tho I deffered the till August this year which I intend pursuing. I graduated last year april in a school in South Africa and I got a job as a graduate trainee from last year June till Feb, I was paid stipends and now I became a permanent staff in March dis year with a salary of 80k monthly.
What is my chance of getting the visa? Tho I might consider UK universities for my masters programme in september coz I have abt 6 issions already.
Does my bank statement really matter?
