Please how much will I pay for IHS. Trying to register for it and calculations read £600. Is it correct?

Lamakinde:


Pls I need help on this!

Realgeo:


I don't think that it's a problem cause most of people that travelled with their own was not even asked to present it but it's advisable to travel with it though to avoid the story that touches. Again, I will suggest that he scan and send it to your phone so that u can have it at hand should incase.

Good afternoon everyone, I just came across this site last week! Just want to share my experience and to encourage everyone waiting for their visa to hang on the faith! I went to UK in 2010 on student visa and due to some issues from home office. I couldn't renew my visa and overstayed! I met my husband 2014 thinking to get married and applied for spouse visa but was not possible instead home office sent me a letter to come and be signing, I complied and was signing till our solicitor ask us to go home and apply I came to naija last December to get married and applied in May. To God be the glory my visa came out today. God favoured me despite overstaying but God proved himself worthy. Pls to everyone still waiting don't loose hope if God can do mine he will sure do for everyone. I received the not straight forward email on 1st of August and my visa was approved on that same 1st of August. What a might God we serve.

They have never requested to see your TB results at the airport cause they know you definitely submitted it with your application or else your visa won't be granted but to be on a safe side let him scan to your device and be it bring it to the airport in case the village People no one free you.Pls don't use Turkish Airlines.Thank me later

subomi2:
congratulations!!!!

My advice(s) justifiable you felt was harsh, but you thankfully remembered my final point.
I said the visa would still be granted, I stated your time would be wasted, but eventually you guys would come out trumps........

One point you have to understand is, when people seek advice, clarifications or directions. And people sugar-coat the advice they give, the requester might not have a clear direction.

But telling you what you might not like to hear, but that aspect been the truth is the best approach......

The level of advice you might have received, albeit been a combination of negative and positive, spurred you in a positive direction and the desired outcome was achieved......

Congratulations in advance.... In life, we learn everyday. No one person is an island of information. That is the simple reason people find this thread a positive approach to their individual spousal visa application process.....

Glad you came back to issue a feedback on our dealings.

Wow, congrats Alexlady! Your story is so inspiring. I've also been refused under 320 (11). Please read a summary of my case below. I sent my appeal about a month ago. I'll be really grateful if you can advice me on what to expect.


I applied for an entry clearance as a partner of a British citizen. My application was refused on 320 (11). The two main points made by the ECO are: overstaying the 6months stay limit on my multiple entry visit visa and breaching the conditions attached to my leave by undertaking studies (University degrees). Both of these conditions result in 'contriving in a significant way to frustrate immigration laws', BUT there was no mention of 'aggravating circumstances' in my refusal letter.

I moved to britain as a child, with my family, and stayed there for 12 years (I was granted a 10 year visit visa). The decision to settle down in the country was taken by my parent. I met my wife in 2014, a year before the 10 year visit visa expired. The the 10 year visa expired the year after (2015), and I moved out of UK in February 2017, at my own expense, without the home office having any knowledge of me overstaying, detaining me or forcefully sending me out. I married my wife in Nigeria, then we filed the app in April. My wife has lived in Britain all her life.

During the 10 year period, I undertook studies and gained two university degrees at a time when my visa didn't allow me to do so. However, I paid for the degrees with my money, and never used student loan or any sort of benefit. I was able to enrol with utility cards and bank card, as I didn't have any other form of ID (driver's licence, residence card etc). Although I've met all the other requirements for the spouse visa, my application has been refused for 'contriving in a significant way to frustrate the immigration rules', without any mention of the aggravating circumstances attached to 320 (11), and I've been told that studying is not an aggravating circumstance. Also, the phrase 'aggravating circumstances' was not used in the refusal letter, although 320 (11) was used.


It may be important to state here that I have neither been involved in any criminal activity, nor benefitted from public benefits, during my stay in Britain. I also did not sought or partake in any form of employment during my stay in Britain.

I sent an appeal about a month ago, with the help of a lawyer, and also got my MP involved, who has sent a letter to UKVI. What are my chances in this case? Can the decision be overturned before hearing? I'll really like to hear from you.

Congrats again.

@Lexusgs430, well spoken. The truth told that hurts but spours one to positive action is better than lies that will sweet the ear and lead to destruction. We should try not to in any means breach immigration rules. These rules has been made and we must keep them if we want to enjoy the benefits. Mistakes is for us to learn not our destruction.

Do you want to cross the i's & dot the t's ?

Alexlady:
Thank you for the feedback and congratulations........all I am saying is that let us give advice based on facts, not jump into conclusions and find a way forward and not emphasise on something that cannot be changed. I don't want sugar coated advice. I understand my story was quite unique as most people's refusals are usually due to missing documentation etc. My hope is that my experience would encourage those that unfortunately find themselves in our similar situation....

Lamakinde:
House please I need your advice urgently, I have just submitted online yesterday waiting to do biometrics on Thursday but discovered I answered wrongly somewhere on 32 asking if I have been refused visa to which I have always been saying yes with proof of it and for past visas even in April this year until this last one. What can I do to remedy this as I cannot edit the form once submitted.
Should I write a letter signed stating the mistake and putting the date of refusal?

justwise:
[/b]

You need to do that else you are likely to be refused

Lamakinde:

Thanks for the response, I will write one, get it signed and take it along to the biometric centre. Also intend to scan it to my wife to include in the supporting documents already with her to be sent to Sheffield.
