Between 1999 - 2005, I lived in Nigeria but travelled in and out of the UK numerous times. In 2006 (iI was 21 years old), I overstayed my visa by a month and left voluntarily (was not deported or forced to do so).
In 2006 - When i, when I arrived in Nigeria, a Nigerian immigration official backdated my arrival date in Nigeria to appear as if iI did not overstay (Fraudfraud). When iI went to renew my visitorsvisitor visa at the UK Embassy in Nigeria embassy, iI was called for an interview, the. The official who interviewed me called the airline to confirm if iI had arrived back in Nigeria on the date stamped on my passport and thethey said I didn't, and the visa was refused.
In 2016 (10, 10 years later) i, I applied for a ukUK visitors visa to visit my brother who is a British citizen. On the section where it asked if i have ever been refuedrefused a ukUK visa, I was quite vague about the 2006 event. itIt was refused due to - previous travel history (they didn't elaborate) and, because iI used a private bank statement while self employed, and for lack of ties to home country.
Now, in 2018 -, I want to re apply-apply in order to visit my brother and his family, my. My circumstances have changed significantly,my. My business is now formal with company bank statement ofstatements for 2 years i, I am married with kidschildren, and I bought a property outright and have title deed onin my name (value 100000 british pounds£100,000). I also run a thriving business with a bank balance of +- 250more than £250,000 british pounds at any time and have travelled to a shengenSchengen country and came backreturned to my country. what
