Hello All,
I am planning to travel with my wife and child for studies in the Uk, while filling the vias application form for my son, at the document section we were requested to provide a letter of consent for the child. Since I am travelling with my wife and we have the birth certificate of the child do we still need to provide a consent letter?
Thanks in advance for you answers.

You’re welcome. My TB certificate expired on the 27th but I emailed the Coronavirus immigration helpdesk to get clarification and that’s what I was told : if a valid TB certificate is provided with an application, it will be accepted[b] so long as the expiry date is less than 6 months in the past as at the time a decision is made on the application[/b]

I honestly don't understand the bold part please. I don't know if you can further explain.

My TB would expire on the 24th of September, and my interview date is 8th of September. This is my own case. Please I need an advice on what to do ASAP please. If there's anyone I'm to mail, please help me with their email address or should I go for a new test? Thanks as I await responses.

Please my course start date is 07/09/2020 and my latest resumption date is 01/02/2021.. I'm about applying for a visa, is it advisable to choose a later date as when I plan to arrived in the Uk.. thinking of November or December
0r should I stick to a date before the course start date..

For those whom have received their Visa please how month vignette sticker was written on it?

bodyco:
Your opinion is needed.
I have three names on my bank account statement, two names on my passport and then two names likely on my CAS which is yet to come, my TB cert also has two names.
Although I have been advised to get an affidavit, I'm worried if it will suffice. However, I have the opportunity of renewing my passport which expires in less than 6months and get the name reconciled. But the challenge also would be to amend my TB cert. What should I do. Anyone with such experience before

Hello,

You are allowed to arrive the UK 3,months before the start of your course.To avoid high cost of living people opt for a month to a few weeks before their course start date.

This decision is entirely up to you.

Your reference date shouldn't be your latest resumption date please. That is you already walking on thin egg shells.

Vignette for now is 90days but that could also change so make sure you stay informed.

Cheers

Not Required for applicants from Nigeria.

Fwaz:
Thanks duchess90... My main concern is that my course will be starting 7 September, even if I said I will arrive UK by 5th or 6th September, the chances of getting a visa before those dates is only when I opt for priority or super priority.. I read somewhere that UKVI will be considerate due to pandemic. I will be starting the course online so I thought maybe I can choose a date after the course start date and go with standard visa. Do you think the ECO will have any doubt?
Please do you suggest I stick to a date before the course start date?
What if I indicate that I'm starting the course online and I choose to arrive UK after a month?

NOTE: getting a biometric date is another thing on its own.maybe that's why the latest resumption date was extended till February.i read here that walk in isn't available in some Visa centers

LagosismyHome:


Yes ...it always your choice on which dependent you choose to add or remove . Just fulfil the financial requirements

Zeecos:

Some unis require it fir healthcare courses. So it might be needed during the visa process.

LaaJiblik:


Consent letter not required - in this case.

Zeecos;
You mean some universities will require me, to write a consent letter, consenting for my son to travel with me and my wife? Even with a valid birt certificate?

I think you might be mistaken.

duchess90:
Hello,

With the dates you have mentioned your TB certificate is still valid and you won't need to have another.

After a while in the UK , you'll receive a letter for another TB test within the UK to check for Latent TB(not active TB)in your system.I recall this is usually blood

Others can add

Cheers

I was referring to a police report not consent letter for a child

liliberth:



Its not needed for interview. Only to be presented in school.

TheGuyFromHR:


Not some universities, the UKVI.
We've discussed this up above; that's the requirement, however strange it seems.

Good afternoon. My friend want to use her dad's statement of account to apply for visa.The money is in treasury bills, it will mature first week in October and that's when her school will resume. The printed statement of account is reflecting the money needed but it it advisable for her to use it to apply for visa because I haven't heard of anyone using it. Thanks.

duchess90:
Hello,

Check the airlines you intend to fly with and their requirements in addition to Nigeria and the UK borders.
For example :Emirates requires COViD test within 96hrs from when the sample was taken ,they also have a list of hospital/lab for it.

Cheers

For those waiting for their bank statements to meet the 28-day requirement, don’t forget to monitor the exchange rate on Oanda especially if you didn’t make extra provision to hedge against sudden spikes in exchange rate.

It’s N518 as of today.

mattfeuter:


Oanda has really been wilding

It was N510 on Friday and N515 yesterday
