Good afternoon house. Please i need your advice. I want to book self service at the TLS ikeja but can I change to assisted service on the day of appointment. This is because when I chose assisted service I couldn't get the free time for July 9 which is the date am going to be free but when I chose self service I saw alot of free time there. Thanks.

Hello everyone,
I got back my passport today stamp with 6months visit visa
Biometrics date - 11/06/2021

Purpose of traveling - to write a professional examination (NCKEX-RN)
Travel date - 10-17th July,2021. Exam date is july 16. I explained that I am well aware of the 10days quarantine rule but will opt for test to release on the 5th day
Estimated amount to be spent on trip - 550,000
Amount in my bank account - 1,159,045
My salary after tax - about 82,000
The total amount I get in a year- 120,000
Amount I spent every.month - 9,000
NB- my mum do give me 10k monthly which amount to the 120,000 I get in a year, I explained that I just got a job in May,2021 and hasn't been paid my first salary,so, I didn't add my monthly salary to the amount I get in a year

Documents submitted
My 6month bank account statement
Employment letter
Letter from employer stating that I am newly employed and has not received my first salary,thus, no payslip and also days have been granted leave from work

Documents from sponsor
NB-My sponsor is my biological sister working and living in the USA
My sponsor's salary 6month bank account
My sponsor's saving 4month bank account
My sponsor's 6month payslip
My sponsor's work ID
My sponsor's ID (Driver's License)
3 pictures of my sponsor and I
Letter of sponsorship stating how we are related and why she is sponsoring me and the day she sent money(1 million) to my account
I & My sponsor's birth certificate
Her marriage certificate and change of name

Others
Consent letter from mother, also stating that she sent 200k to me in support of the visa application
Pictures of I and my Mother
Confirmation of scheduled examination
Payment receipt for the examination
Hotel booking from booking.com
Nursing license and notification

I explained that although I am opting for test to release on the 5th full day in the UK, my travel date is flexible enough to be adjusted to accommodate the 10days quarantine if necessary.
N.B- I do not have savings at all and even used part of the 200k my mum sent to me to pay for the application fee making my closing balance not up to 1.2M but I duely explained that in my cover letter

What worked for me
I made sure i have double of the amount i want to spend on the trip in your bank account (I had to reduce my estimated travel cost from 700k to 550k)
I thorouh explained everything in your application that may cause confusion,
Why I choose UK as the exam center as it can be written in other countries


NOTE- This is first visa on my passport,no travel experience whatsoever. No agent used
Thanks to the information I gathered here and people who always take time to reply and questions here Tutu82, Giselle237 and others

Good day .:

An appreciation for a bit of clarity I got on here.

5 year visa granted.

No matter how experienced a person with visa applications, we always run back here when it’s time to apply again. LOL

Thank you @Tutu82

Biometrics 9th June
Collection mail: 29th June.

A few things to note in my application. I stated I was opting for the test to release scheme on day 5 after arrival. I didn’t want my holiday duration to run more than 2 weeks.

Some airlines have specific labs that they accept covid test from. If you've booked the flight, then you should check with the airline first.

I know a friend that applied for fiancé visa, she came bk from UK three months and she quickly applied for fiancé visa without the tuberculosis test.

But just to be at a safer side, do the TB.

Only what you need to do is to keep calling them, send mail and tell them how urgent it is, they will respond and give you a date immediately.
Thanks a lot. I got them on phone and explained my situation. They asked me to justify my need with proofs, through email and they were kind enough to give me an earlier date afterwards.
