I think you’re fine. You’ll get your visa as long as you haven’t violated any term of your past visas
Ok thanks a lot. This is reassuring

Is self service difficult? How do I upload files myself for visiting visa. Any guide
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by Brenda37(f): 11:35pm On Nov 25, 2021
Self service is the best option you can use. Just scan all your documents with your phone or wit a scanner and save either on your phone or laptop depending on what you want to use to upload your docs. Then you can also get a soft copy of your Bank Statement and save on your phone or laptop as well. Then you create folders for each documents you have so that it will be easy for you to identify them when uploading. It's as easy as that

Hello, please how can I submit application using priority service. I can only see standard visa submission only.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by dzee1: 4:53am On Nov 26, 2021
Priority can be paid for at the vls center when you go for biometrics

It takes 48hrs to get the passport from the time you request for withdrawal. This request is done at the vls office.
Unfortunately I work remotely and can't go to their office. Hence why I choose for the passport to be DHL back to me. The plan was, I leave work on Sunday, then travel Tuesday.

If you can get to their office, try and do it.
However, you should also ask for the option of retrieving your passport while your application is still being processed. This option is available on their site, so I'm sure they offer that too. See below.


I am still waiting for my visa decision and I need my passport for an urgent matter. How can I get it back?

If you need your passport back urgently, please contact us via our online form.



Please carry me along with what option you choose, and also, try and get a contact when you get there so I could get to talk to someone from here.

All the best

But I use priority service to upload my documents. The only thing is that, those documents that's not in a A4 you have to photocopy it on A4 paper

Am at Ibadan but the way I need the passport I think I will go to the office Monday so I can request for the passport so by Wednesday I can have it.

If they allow the option of getting back your passport while your application is still processing will go for that and if not I will cancel my application and get back my passport

Thank you so much for the info.

Because when I try to message them that I need my passport urgently they never respond so instead of wating for their response it’s better I go there and get things sorted that one will be more faster than waiting for them to reply.


Do you get the info from their staff or from their website?

What happened to the black friday ticket sales for flights to the UK? No movement on ticket sales, in fact they went up lol. BA and Virgin didn't try at all for Nigerians. It was all catered to US. Just sucks and I was looking forward to their sales.

Wow. I'm also in Ibadan. What if a decision has been made on the passport? Will you also be able to request for your passport and get it within two days.

Is there a fee for this? And if a decision has been made on the passport, can you still collect it within that 48hrs
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by Debbieeeeeee: 8:35am On Nov 26, 2021
When I asked them during the call if I could withdraw my passport they said 15 working days and everything will be canceled.
From recent timelines it’s obvious they dispatch passports after issuing visas almost immediately, if you collect your passport back, it may mean application fees being forfeited because there’s a high likelihood visa hasn’t been stamped on the passport being requested for.
Just my opinion!
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by Debbieeeeeee: 8:37am On Nov 26, 2021
Jxool you’re not being clear enough , are you seeking to get your passport for Medicals request ? Or did you get a passport request for visa stamping from the Canadian people?
If it’s medical request you can do with a copy of the biodata page for the Medicals oo .

I went to IOM already and I was told I can do the medical with copy if my passport and the Copy given to me when I submitted my application at TLScontact.

But my concern is after I do my medical any moment Ircc might send me passport request so I don’t want any delay when they request for my passport

And apart from that I need to travel, so everything is in tight corner that’s why I just want to have my passport ready

You don’t have to pay anything as long as you vaccinated. Take your vaccination certificate with you that’s all you need

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by cutebear: 9:45am On Nov 26, 2021
Don’t worry, after your medicals, you won’t get passport request from IRCC immediately. It doesn’t make sense to withdraw your application when you are already at the finish line. Withdrawal process is 15 working days so that will be counter productive.
