Good day house. I've finally paid the IHS fees! Whew! Please when can I select priority service? Is it after my visa payment?

The priority or superpriority is a “Value Added Service”
You can buy it anytime BEFORE your biometrics on the TLS WEBSITE.

Congratulations!
You can check directly with airlines for best ticket deals that suit your pocket and your time preference.
You can also check travelStart for ticket deals too.
You can also join your school's social media pages for info which relates to your school.
Check flatshare and studenttenant for off-campus accommodation if you'll be living off-campus.

Good day Everyone. I just collected my passport and my visa was successful. I will be going for M.s.c @ University of Greenwich and I am also new here on this Platform. I am still so shocked too that i do not know the next step on how to make travel plans. I am supposed to leave the country by 11th of September. I need a Kind person to direct me. Please help a Brother.
Thanks and God Bless in advance

solarinde:
Please house, is it better to apply for visa from the ukvisa web (GOV.Uk) or the TLScontact. Thanks

You CANNOT apply via the TLS website.

TLS is only a visa application submission centre. They are middlemen in the application process. A simple Google search will reveal that.
To apply, go to www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/

you are just kidding right?

Issokay....


But in case you are not kidding, I would advice that you use the remaining days you have in Nigeria to live up to the expectations of someone who has completed a first degree, and is proceeding to Greenwich for a PG degree.

I am dancing skelewu to baba God. A good news of approval.

That's good to know. Thanks kindly.

If you are in or around Lagos, go to Oyingbo.
If you are in or around Abuja, go to Jabi or Utako.

Go to Ifesinachi or The Young Shall Grow or God Bless Ezenwata or Ekeson or Peace Mass Transit, or Cross Country or New Nyanya Transport.

Buy a ticket from the park, to Greenwich.
If you wish, you could buy the night journey own (it’s a cheaper option, really). Then travel to Greenich.

Hope that helps.

You're just incorrigible lolzzz

As in, most of the French people I know had to make alternate plans last summer and same thing happened in spring too.
I truly hope that they can put an end to the disappointments travellers have been facing with them in the past year.

Joyeeeee:
Airfrance can be very annoying. They cancelled my flight and resheduled it after for 4 days. Made me almost overstay in the UK.

Congratulations. I'm glad that your worries were put to nought.
Go forth and succeed in your course.

Please how much did you pay for priority in Naira? Also, did you make the payment online or at TLS office?

Please reply.

davide470:
So, i did my biometrics today. Paid for Priority application. No interview.

My program is taking place in London and Paris to which i have a French Visa already, so i hope UK won't give me any issues.

Fingers crossed!

Fomskie:
Hello @justwise my school starts Sept 10th. Do I need to apply for super priority or just priority will do?

That is the only option you have right now

UyoBoy4Real:

Please reply.

The payment was done online, on the TLS website. You can't pay at their office.

£212 = N99,709 from my GTBank Card.. A friend that paid a day before me was debited N109k (Another bank)

Thank you for this. God bless you

Guys what is the average wait period after the Sheffield mail?
For Tier 4 General and for school under the new pilot scheme?

Usually about 5-6 days for standard applications but then each application is different and the wait time may be less or more.

Many thanks. I submitted by 22nd Aug. So surprised to get 'transferred', 'received' and 'the Sheffield' mail all before 25th and it's non-priority.

You're welcome. It might be that the volume of applications have reduced or that they are trying to treat applications faster.
On another hand, it could just be your luck

Hi guys I submitted on the 1 of Aug biometrics and interview.. I got a not straight forward mail on 18th then a 2nd interview on 23rd..am yet to here from them till now what could be the problem..gurus in the house..the 2nd interview was not funny I was interrogated like one criminal..am a self sponsored student and I converted my money to pounds..

Thanks a lot Mimilyrics. You've been really helpful
Please anything wrong with having another huge amount entering my bank account within the 28-day period? A huge sum was transferred to my account and also left my account the next day. However, the school money is still there. Dunno if it'll be a problem. Or should I just count from when the money left? Problem is I will be late. School starts on the 24th of September and I dont know if applying for a visa on that 24th will reduce my chances

mimilyrics:
Print on the 29th day.
Day 1 is the day after the deposit is made because the opening balance on the day the deposit is made does not reflect the amount you require.
The opening balance of the day after a deposit is made is what shows the deposit of the previous day.

Good day house. I noticed something strange with my IHS payment. After I paid my IHS yesterday, and was given a Ref number via email, I noticed this morning that the amount has reversed back to my account. But there's has been no message from UKVI. I called my bank and was told that the payment was declined, yet I was given an IHS ref number. What do I do? Hope this will not impact on my application.

Pls I need some clarification. After paying all my msc tuition(£12,500) my CAS has my maintenance requirement at about £11k + which is around 5.3m naira. My confusion now is that my current soa I intend using for visa application has 5m at 28 days and though as at last week the acc has more than 6mil. I am confused if I need to wait for the 6mil to complete 28days before submitting or use the 5m. Or should I contact school to reduce the maintenance requirements on my CAS to match my 5m SOA as I have a free accommodation for four months on arrival? Sch starts 8 oct and I am running out of time.

Note: had my undergraduate in same sch

They are most likely verifying the information on your application. 3rd party information can take a while at times. There was probably information that wasn't clear enough to them.
No one here can say exactly what the issue might be so just keep your fingers crossed and hope for the best.

As long as the money in your account didn't go below what you require before and after the transfers to and from your account, It shouldn't be an issue and shouldn't interrupt your 28 day count.

Before @Justwise and @Laajiblik get here, here are my 2 cents.

From the sum you stated, I take it that your school is in London
You said you need 5.3 million Naira for your maintenance but you have had 5 million Naira in your account for 28 days. Right?
If that's so, then the 28 day count was pointless because you needed to have had 5.3 million Naira in your account even before you started counting.
Wait for the 6 million Naira to hit 28 days in your account before submitting your application online to avoid getting a refusal.

NOTE: Your school cannot reduce the maintenance funds that you need to show for any reason because they aren't the UKVI. The UKVI provided the application guidance for a reason.
Whether you have free accommodation or not, you need to show the full maintenance funds that you're required to show.
