Hello

You don't need to include the decision documents, declaring it is sufficient

I won't be too concerned

Cheers

Please house, anyone September intake for the University of Stirling that has gotten CAS?
Is there any submission of PoF besides fees deposit?
And how long does it take to get the CAS. �

I could not get CAS majorly due to delay in POF submission

Thank you. Noted

Hello

@bigtt76 responded

Can I also say that time between Friday to Tuesday is not too much considering you can't do anything during the weekend.

I personally would print it on a Tuesday

Cheers

bigtt76:
Your POF must be in the account for 28 days. You can print on the 29th or 30th day before your application.

Hello

Please address to Lagos High Commission

one of my references was addressed to Abuja and I’m not sure I will be able to get another one because it was from my previous employer

So in my case are you saying I might need a legal document since my husband is not applying with us?

The consent letter from both of us and his documents should be okay right?
He can’t apply due to the nature of his job( offshore)
Please kindly let me know if I might need additional documents so I gather them now. We are still married.

duchess90:
Hello

Exactly so if it isn't the case, what @bourne007 said earlier has to stand unless compelling reasons which is what has brought us back to the discussion

My point was responsibility is not just an affidavit, or a letter of consent when it comes to a minor especially when the second parent can't apply.

Thinking about it, I know someone who has sole responsibility because the other parent has some mental health issues and can't take decisions for the child. They had to prove and provide evidence for that sha

Anyway..enjoy your Sunday

Cheers

jum33:

Sure .

when did you apply pls

Hello

Nope the consent letter is not enough.

Is his work a compelling reason why he is not applying at the same time with you? It's up to you to prove that otherwise I fear a possible refusal .

Here's a screenshot that explains the sentence easier, you can do more research on this

PS there is something called parent child abduction

Hello

@ the bolded have you tried?
It's always good to keep your application straightforward and clean without mix and matches but if you can't then use it as it is, there's nothing you can do.

Cheers

slutky:
Dear All,

Please I am trying to fill an application for my children. Can I use same email I used for my application or I need to open I separate email for my children application

Please use your email. I assume your kids are minors and it’s expected that they won’t be able to monitor the progress of their application by themselves.

It is also easy for you to track their applications using your email address because each child/dependent is expected to have different passwords anyways.

A lot of people did this and they were able to track their children’s application.

Sorry if I appear like I'm doubting so many respected gurus here, but this study gap idea I read here ,where did it come from?
I can't find job reference as a requirement on ukvi site and I know a colleague with 10 years study gap who did not submit job reference and was granted.
I will still err on the side of caution though. But we need to clarify if it's a myth we've all come to accept as norm.
Thanks

@ duchess90

Hello

Please what is the cheaper payment channel for IHS and visa?

Alexminimie3:

If your certificate is less than 5 years, you only need letter from your school to show that you were taught in English.
If not, you need IELTS test

I think this depends on the school’s requirements. Loads of people with gap years of 17 years and above here only submitted their WAEC and no IELTS results.

Hello,

The email I had advised was hers not the kids

But if the bolded is possible and the applicant doesn't mix things up then this would be a better option

Cheers

Hello

This was a consideration at the credibility interview during Biometrics which is currently not as popular and will only be requested on a case by case basis.

Because the credibility interview is not taking place as often as it should ,case workers now rely solely on evidence of anything worth considering including study gaps.

That is the reason why NSF mails have been sent to request that sort of additional document and now applicants are proactive in submitting such to avoid NSFs

Looks like we are on the same page then.

I am meant to do my masters and return to Nigeria right? That is the ideal way. Not everyone believes in the abroad dream especially if they are doing well in Nigeria
He is offshore sometimes for 3 months so where should the child be at that time if I don’t go with her?

I can’t lie that we are separated when we are not. Applying with us will mean more POF and he is not ready for all that and I don’t have more than enough for his POF.
I have seen people get visa without their husbands.

Good afternoon house,

@Justwise @Duchess90

Please, if remove like #300,000 from my pof account, will it be of any effect?

My pof will still be at the required amount needed for my visa application after removing the #300,000

Thanks

Good day guys, I'm new here ,
Here's my story briefly, I have Bsc Agriculture
(Soil science Dept) not so proud of it, I worked with ATM company for 2years 2017-2018, then got federal job In one of the Teaching Hospitals as Admin staff 2018, I started ICAN exam to become a chattered Accountant, passed all the papers just one to go SFM, but was cut short as I left my job and relocated to Lagos February to work with my uncle for a while who wants to sponsor me to UK

I tot Nigeria will get better never had any intention of traveling out, but here we are.
I've done some research and I've seen ICAN cert is recognized only in west Africa so there's no need to completing the remaining 1 paper, funds and time wasted,

I have intrest in IT, I intend to travel through student Visa, MSC in CYBER SECURITY, I've already enrolled in some online courses (Cyber Security)

so guys here my challenge, can I switch to IT related course MSC considering my BSC in Soil science
And I also need guidelines on the UK study visa process

It is strongly advised that you apply with your hubby. Once the visa is granted, he can travel to Nigeria and Bisit the UK as often as possible.

I have two friends who did this. Their husbands have great jobs in Nigeria so they visit the family in UK since they already have their BRP.

Hope this helps.

@duchess please, if the employment letter contains the salary details, is it in anyway used in making financial decisions as part of the visa process?

perrol:
Please I need a direction on how to be checking available date for biometric at ikeja on there site, A friend help my wife to fill her form,I don't want to be disturbing him as such. How can I check it because he said there's no available date. Thanks

You will be checking and refreshing the site regularly especially in the midnight from 12am.

You can pick a farther date first and amend it later to closer date.

If you still don't get it, let me know.

Your child will not… i say again… will not be grnated visa unless there is an explanation for/from dad
It’s either one parent is dead, separated, divorced or not in child’s life and then you must get documents to back this up…
For anything else there must be strong compelling reasons why the other party will not be travelling.
They can not grant the child or children visa without this.
Follow guidelines.. the simplest way… all of you apply together… when the visa comes out… your husband is left to do what he so pleases with his visa.
You say you know ppl tht applied without their husbands yess.. pls reach out to them.. no visa will be granted to the child if UKVI can not establish father’s own application or extenuating circumstances around your situation.
Even here in the UK, I helped a relation with her renewal application for her child within the UK… child and father submitted same time but somehow UKVI did not see father’s application..
The child’s visa was put on hold and nsf was sent for same reason… there has to be an explanation…
