Funnyguy83:
plz answer my above query.

henrooik:


Yes it is a study visa I applied for with certificate of solvency issued to me by my school after I transferred the money which they blocked for me. I sent my application ref no. And the embassy email address to my school via email and I requested for my admission letter to be sent directly to the embassy informing them of my resumption date which they did and every other thing fall in place

JerryDM1:
please how much exactly did they require you to transfer? Thanks and congrats

henrooik:

The amount of money required to be transferred should be based on the university, some universities charge administrative fees while my university did not charge me an addtional fee apart from the required amount for my one year living expenses.
But you need to apply for the prove of solvency certificate through the right channel and if approved they will tell you how much you will transfer and give account number where you will make the transfer in one deposit.

nice thread guys, quite unfortunate I didn't know about this in time.
I'm in a sort of limbo, I did the processes of school admission and visa all by myself (no past experience guide).. still awaiting a decision on my visa app at this very moment and I applied since more than 3months now.
I made a terrible mistake and only got to know how important this is in this very commendable thread. as earlier stated, I applied for the Belgian study visa with no guide whatsoever, so definitely every step was horribly horrible for me, very very.. to shorten the talk, I got the study visa requirements and was not clear about the annex 32, so I mailed the embassy what the sponsorship form meant, I didn't mention annex 32 but sponsorship form instead because I saw it was meant to be legalized, so I asked if I am to legalize the sponsors form too, their response was very misleading because the reply was no (I really wish I found this thread earlier).. so I ignored the annex 32 and continued with other requirements including other sponsorship docs and all..
yeh I applied without the annex 32, don't even know what's blocked acct, I found out what it meant here.
so the reality my brothers is that I'm waiting for a visa that annex 32 or blocked acct was not included, how pathetic
I was even trying to find out if applicants can add documents even after submission but I don't think it's possible. so this is the situation I'm in now and I pledge to direct prospective students here and help also in the little way I can so peeps won't have to make terrible mistake like myself.
I apologise really for this short novel, my first contribution and I'm relief I've let this out.
I haven't mastered the names yet but I must commend some old buddies, they've been excellent from the previous comments I saw.
cheers guys

Certified True Copy is acceptable but it has to be legalized by the Belgian Embassy in Nigeria

henrooik:


Yes it is a study visa I applied for with certificate of solvency issued to me by my school after I transferred the money which they blocked for me. I sent my application ref no. And the embassy email address to my school via email and I requested for my admission letter to be sent directly to the embassy informing them of my resumption date which they did and every other thing fall in place

princewalay:
Hello everyone! Please i need your advise. I applied for a program in Ghent University Belgium. My application was approved but i was told to provide a legalized copy of my degree certificate before an admission letter can be issued to me. My question is this: Can i legalize my document here in Lagos using a Rotary Public or Will i have to travel to abuja for the legalization at MOE, MOFA and Belgian Embassy?. Below is an extract from the email that was sent to me (pls read the last line):
- A legalised copy of the basic diploma (i.e. the diploma on which the admission would be based) and its transcript of records (report card / results of each academic year of your higher studies).

Please note that if your basic diploma is a Master diploma following a Bachelor diploma, you are required to provide all transcript of records for each academic year of both Bachelor and Master.

www.ugent.be/legalisation: These should bear the original seals and stamps from the Belgian Embassy.

WinaMofi:



Hello Henrooik!
Pls was the Certificate of Solvency in hard copy?
Did you have to legalise it?
Please respond, Newbie here!

brunosucre:




Hey! Anyone going to or already studying in Ghent. Please PM me let's talk.

Achobandu:
Also, does the sponsor have to take the Annex 32 for legalization personally, or can the student do that himself?

Uyiii:


I applied through vfs, lagos precisely. I remember when I applied, the first submission process, the staff asked for the receipt of payment to home office, then after my documents before asking for my sponsors docs which I gave to her.
so she didn't ask for the annex 32 specifically, then I would have known something's wrong cus I don't have it.
no interview, no nothing.. 3months and counting
