Big lie. Read and understand the policy. I applied 10 days before maturity and I have my Visa, I know about 5 person with same. Demonstrate that you have held the funds for 28 consecutive days. The closing balance should not be 31 days old as at when u apply. The 28 days is usually counted backwards from ur closing date, and more importantly ur date of application becomes important because it is the oanda exchange rate for that date that will be used. I almost cancelled my application because of ur kind of advise. But I downloaded the policy note and was very sure I understood it. Pls note: do not submit your documents until you have printed your complete statement. In my case I uploaded my statement and submitted a day to my biometrics.[color=#990000][/color]

Grateful to the almighty God who knows the end of a thing before it even begins. The all-knowing and all-sufficient God!

Family of 5.
CAS Issued: 6th of August 2021
Visa Application: 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th of August 2021 (Applied till about 3 am in the morning)
Biometrics: 9th of August 2021 (Walk-in at TLS Ikeja). Got there with my Family by 4 am and left by about 11:30 am.
Main Applicant: Priority
Dependants: Standard.
Main Applicants Passport Collection email 2:23 pm 17th of August 2021, Passport collected 17th of August 2:50 pm.
Dependants Collection email 3:56 pm 1st of September 2021, Passport collected 10 am 2nd of September 2021pm.

Many of those who applied as a family with the main applicant as priority and dependants as standard all got their passports on the same date as the main applicant. However, this was not our case and it was a very long 17 working days. Made several phone calls to UKVI and One Paid email during this period. I suspect the TLS guy in Ikeja didn't do something right as during the biometric he mentioned something about linking our application together. O Well, that's all in the past now.

Also noticed that the main applicant's decision was in Pretoria while the dependants were done in Abu Dhabi.

No Non-Straight Forward email.
No Interview.

Advice
A small tip for those who will be making calls to UKVI based on my own experience. Use Skype for this and load about $10. Calls from Skype to UK numbers is about $0.075. While I noted that using this process, my Debit Card was never charged for any call.

Except your middle name is patience, please do PRIORITY!!!.

We thank God for helping us through this journey and thanks to all the positive contributors on this platform. For those awaiting a decision, your expectation will not be cut short in Jesus Name. Amen!

Futureukstudent:
before you argue further, this is a mail to someone from BCU. Yes BCU before CAS could be issued to the person. This isnt from an agent or what have you, it was straight from the admission team. This is a school rule before CAS can be released. School issues CAS, UKvi issues visa....two different things bro

Kenny4smart:
Please who have been able to pay for IHS and visa fee today using GTB dollar card. I have been stalked since morning. OTP not dropping.
I have tried and tried and tried.

Indeed this journey is not for the weak.

Boofrenzy:
So guys i feel you can avoid paying for walk in by starting your application early.

This is what I mean. Starting the visa application say 2 weeks before your POF matures .
Pay for IHS and Visa fee then select biometrics appointment date which will be 2weeks ahead.

In 2 weeks time when your statement matures. Print the statement and upload all documents

Then go for your normal appointment.

I'm not so sure how long the application is valid after creating the account but I think you will have about 2 weeks to complete that. So it should work.

By the way, You are free to criticize this. Let me hear what you think

Ogheneakpors:


You are absolutely correct. No visa application is complete until it has been transferred to UKVI.
No transfer until you have done biometrics.
To do your Biometrics, you need to have uploaded your documents.
Completing the questionnaire on the gov.uk website is just a part of the process.....

I had to reprint my POF a day before my biometrics and I have my VISA....the date I got for standard after completing my application was more than 31days after paying my VISA fees thus rendering my intial statement useless.

annamaria333:
Many thanks for your response! And for the luck

But even weekdays in October, November and December are blank and don't allow me to click on them. (screenshot attached)

pimpc007:
keep calling those numbers in the email, sometime during the day they put it on, once you get it speak with the person to schedule u.. beg if u can for early date, and why.. u know the rest. best of luck

Autophys1:


Call them with the numbers on their website depending on your location, Lagos or Abuja.
They will book you with a date and a time.
On the date you are given, don't wait for the time, be at he gate by 8a.m. so you can finish on time.

Kenny4smart:


Anybody please. I'm tired.

Vecharry:
I guess this settles issues around day 2 and 8 tests.

vivvica:
Hello guys

I just printed my POF and I printed from 3 of august till date . And I plan on doing my biometrics tomorrow. I hope my statement is good to go

koloyewo:
I sent you a mail, please have you gotten an appointment date or you want to do walk in, cos I learnt walk in is being ruled out at ikeja.

pimpc007:
when you start filling the form for the UK Visa, can you save and continue later? can you also edit what was previously saved?

Redditor:


My good man, the only one among those three requirements that UKVI is concerned with is the 28 day rule.

The second and third rules are not necessary. UKVI stated on their website that a downloaded bank statement without stamp is okay nor did they specify that the account must show multiple transactions as proof of "activity"

I quite understand that those rules must be met before those schools issue CAS but seriously, the overreach of the compliance teams of those schools is getting quite much.

They're probably trying to be on the safer side and ensure that all their students get visa sha.

NB: My school has a CAS shield too so I know what their issues can be like.
