    Hi IMGs! In this video I discuss how I wrote a cover letter for my standard visitor visa application to the UK. In my opinion, cover letters are critical for UK visit visa applications made for PLAB 2. So here's my step by step approach.

    02:10 Overview
    03:47 Living situation
    04:27 Itinerary
    05:21 UK accommodation
    06:34 Reason for academy
    07:13 Financial sponsor
    09:04 Travel history
    09:41 Summary

    Thanks for the detailed video Dr Wajih. Hope you are doing fine there. Is it necessary to attach our bank statement along with our sponsor's statement? Because, if our sponsor is ready to pay completely to our trip, their account statement would suffice , right?

    • @drwajih32
      @drwajih32  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      To be honest. I can only speak for what I did. I personally attached both.
      But what I've read online is that if you mention you are employed then you should attach your bank statement. If you mention you are unemployed then you won't need to.

      Hi thanks for your kind words. So this is the question for the ages and I don't have a clear answer for this. Even gov.uk was vague about this. So as a just in case measure everyone books the accommodation before applying for the visa. You can try exploring for further details on gov.uk and roadtouk.com

    Hi I applied for standard visitor visa for study purpose but was refused is it okay if I reapply and clarify the points for refusal the same week? Or will I most likely get refused but I think they misunderstood because they mentioned I haven’t traveled for 10 years when I clearly attached my residence card and visas I have residence in Japan and travelled to many other countries

    • @drwajih32

      So based off your comments its my understanding that you currently live in a rented property closer to were you work. However your permanent address is with your family in Punjab. The way I would tackle this situation would be to clarify your circumstances in your cover letter. Provide documents for both places.

      @drwajih32  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      The short answer is no. Ticket you don't have to book or pay for at all. However you do need some sort of evidence for accommodation. Unfortunately most places will only give you a booking confirmation after taking the payment. However not all places are like that.

      Hi.
      There is no fixed number. The general rule of thumb that most IMGs use is to have more than 3 times the amount you intend to spend in the UK. So for example if you plan to spend 2000 GBP on your PLAB 2 trip then you should show at least 6000 GBP in your account. But there really is no magic number.
