Yes u can . But note u must finish uploading ur docs and have a date before you can opt for walk in .

@Bambe081
Thanks for your response.

So is it possible that TLSconnect would make available appointment date once visa payment and health insurance fee has been paid on their own accord or I have to keep checking myself and pick a preferable date?

then how can you write a word and a figure together without seperating them ?

even if you type it in ms word, I'm sure it's going to seperate them.

If you have an iPhone make use of your note app, type the 2 words 3weeks and 3 weeks.

I think the 2 words is correct; because i use 3weeks on my letter drafting, but am concerned if that isn’t an error or it error.

Good Evening All,

I submitted my application in March got a survey questionnaire in April (but was skeptical in answering the questions) lockdown took over, after lockdown no response from Tls as to status update.
I went today for collection of passport, Visa approved after 10 years UK ban.

I have benefitted from nairaland alot, since 2014 especially in the US section.

My candid advice is to read from scratch, take notes, learn from others,do the right thing and pray.

Hardwork pays off.

Thank you JESUS � nara ekene mo �





pls, whag type od visa did u applay for? wirh ur claims TLS did not mail or called u.

we did applied the same date and am still expecting my visa.

thanks for the update eagerly awaiting ur reply
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by moskito36(m): 9:56am On Aug 12, 2020
Congratulations.

Please if I may ask, how did you know that your passport was ready since TLS did not update your tracking.

Also, how were you able to enter for collection when you didn't have proof that your passport was ready for collection.

My understanding of the above is that the programme of the main applicant has ended. If that is not the case,you need a letter from the main applicant's school to endorse that the program is still in progress. It could be the details you gave did not convince the ECO that the main applicant is still studying.Some other persons may give better explanation.

This can be distressing. Probably a misunderstanding on the part of the ECO. Things like this sometimes happen. You will need to get more documents from the main applicant to convince them that the program is till 2022. Probably a recent letter from the school.

Good day everyone...i have asking of how to book appointment, I got a lot of response, thanks everyone for d response , I decided to go to Tls contact at Ikeja to find out what is going on, d response is that dates are not available for now until October, even walk in is not sure, there were about a hundred people yesterday for walk in but they were declined, asked to come today, they came today, only 14 people were taken in, from there explanation, they ain't sure when next to accept walk in, so appointment is a very serious issue now at Ikeja centre, someone suggested that I should go to Abuja, my advice is if u have not chosen Ikeja yet, better choose another centre..as I was leaving, some guys there were asking me to allow them book appointment for me 4 a fee, I asked them How, they said it's an insider thing..i think there is a big issue there, meanwhile they now open on Tuesdays and Thursdays.. I hope this is helpful to someone...

Thanks for the update. Even Abuja centre has many people at the queue. Took me up to 3 hrs standing on queue before it got to my turn.
TLS warn against those boys outside. They will promise to do anything for you including giving you visa. They are mostly fraudsters.

What is the essence of asking people to submit applications when appointment dates won't be available? If care is not taken, one won't be able to get appointment date if one is not connected or heavily loaded. These things are happening because we are too gentle in this part of the world. Ordinarily, getting appointment date shouldn't be an issue. But now, people are having sleepless nights because of it.
