I did priority, was worried why it took more than stipulated 5 day but God was faithful, though the waiting was not easy. All visas release at once, am so grateful.

3 paid call.
1st Escalation call - Wednesday 12/10/ 22 but I never knew the agent that attended to me made so many mistake.

2nd Escalation call - Friend 15/10/22. Though it was someone who did it and then informed me. I wouldn't have done it because I got a CAS used mail that same evening. But since he has done the paid call, he check the last escalation and discovered the agent made mistakes so the new agent took time to correct the error and re-escalate.

A special thanks to @DDuchess90, there was a time I asked an urgent question around 1am and before 1:30am she replied. I even mailed you and your response was swift. Thank you, May God bless and increase you. Thanks to all contributors in the house, am grateful.

When I was to start sometimes in July 2022, it got to a point I wanted to drop my dependants and do mine only because of the fund, but we later summon courage and God had His way. Don't be discourage, God will come through for you.


Thanks

Hello

You can self upload your certificate if you choose self service


Or print a coloured version for TLS to upload if you go for assisted

No hardcopies of your documents are collected except your passport


Cheers

Hairybelly01:
Thanks so much for the response.

Yes it was the same scanned copy I used for my admission process.

My concern is during my biometrics and the document I'll be presenting. I really don't know how it works. I don't know if I'll be submitting the original certificate alongside my passport.

Hello

He can contact the UKVI office on this if it is past 3months

Here is a link to do so

Hello house, asking on behalf of a friend that submitted his tier 2 visa for the past 3 months now, and people submitted after him have gotten their visas approved. No response on mail sent, no response on call as well. Kindly advise on what he can do. Is there any office he can go to inquire about the status of his application? Is there any contact pls.
Thank you

You will still need POF

dduchess90:
Hello

Yes it is possible but you must justify your progression and the reason you want to do another masters

You won't need a TB test and POF

Just visa and IHS payment which you know where to find when it's time to apply


Cheers

Good evening, observed that the lump sum in my POF was debited yesterday, contacted the bank and I was told it was system error, it was later returned…having “reversal” as it’s narration within the space of two hours. Please is it possible I still continue reading the POF from the initial date the Lump sum entered(10days ago) or from today?

P.S: POF is for CAS

Since you have the complete money before the lump sum was mistakenly deposited then you have no prob, the money deposited did not add to the nitial amount or reduce it.

Though you need to explain this during your visa application, don't allow the ECO to figure it out.

Okay so once the uni is okay with it and sees the progression, there won't be any need to justify that to the UKVI office? Also, do I need to submit my Nysc certificate? And do I also need to submit employer reference even though it's only been 3 years since I finished school?

dduchess90:
Hello

No, you will need to justify that with the Uni you apply to

Cheers

Debited not deposited.

Hello

If it was debited and it's for CAS not visa stage

You are still on time to correct this please restart your count

Better an extra 10days wait than issues (CAS and possibly visa refusal in future)

Cheers

That was what I told him.

Hello

Yes and that is the hard but to crack because most Uni's know the rules and have to justify that you have met that progression

No need for NYSC and employer reference,there are no gaps to cover

Oh ok! but still he doesn't need to restart counting, but he needs a letter from the bank acknowledging the mistake and that letter will be attached to visa application.

I graduated 3years ago. Are you sure there are no gaps to cover?

He only counted 10days so he can start counting afresh. Better to wait an extra 10days than to start explaining.

Oh ok! but still he doesn't need to restart counting, but he needs a letter from the back acknowledging the mistake and that letter will be attached to visa application.

Hello

That letter will need to come from the bank stating the IT issues with evidence

My thoughts are there is still time to correct this and the OP should try to do so since it is still at CAS stage

I know someone had almost same issues but at visa stage and towards the end or so, I think she was still successful but it's a big risk to take


If the OP wants to take that risk, well he can

Please use the IHS calculator and input your start and end date to give you an accurate figure.Here is the link:https://www.gov.uk/healthcare-immigration-application/how-much-pay

Your POF will still be 9months

Hello

No gaps for less than 5years

So it's optional to add it

I also thought you had just finished your first and going for a second, I think someone asked almost same question


Cheers

Please does anyone knows about egyptair? Do they require covid 19 test before boarding?

Yes, I was the one who asked the question. I'm going for a second masters in the UK. I did my first masters immediately after my first degree and I finished in 2019. So now I'm going for a second masters. I thought maybe I would need to write a letter to UKVI explaining why I need a second masters and also submit employment reference.

10days is a lot of time if you have no time to start afresh. The money was removed and returned the same day, so a letter from the bank explaining that mistake will do.

Yes, i just corrected my post where i wrote back instead of bank.

Its not a big deal if the bank gives a letter explaining the issue and the money was returned the same day, not days or weeks.

Unless the school gave him a deadline to submit POF before CAS then there is time. Because even if he doesn't start afresh, he will still wait till November.

Good morning nairaland Fam
I’m having one issue at the moment and I don’t know how to address it
I applied to UEL university for mechanical engineering and I’ve been giving admission
I applied for just bachelor degree and I got my offer LAST WEEK but the issue I have now is that when applying I added my university transcript because I used it to explain my gap because my 0level is 2015 so I added it in order to explain fill the 7 years gap
So when I received the offer the school said I have to upload my bachelor degree certificate to make the admission unconditional and I don’t have the bachelor degree yet
It’s going to be tilll next year before my bachelor degree certificate will be available

And I’ve called them they said I should send mail
I’ve sent mail since last Thursday I haven’t received any feedback


Please what do you think I can do
Should I upload my university official transcript instead of the bachelor degree certificate ?

Huddersfield January intake here

olufemi26:
Did you apply for January intake?

If you’ve sent the transcript along with your application and they still requested for your degree certificate, uploading the transcript again won’t change it. Patiently wait for their response.

Good morning please I did one upfront medical in IOM in July for Canada but my Canada application is taking long (18months) so I want to try UK out so please can I use the same medical report for UK? Since TB and co is there.

onyiokoye:
Pls I graduated 3years ago. Are you sure there are no gaps to cover?

If you want to, go ahead but it’s not necessary since it’s not above 5years. If you intend to submit a document to cover your study gap, make sure it’s legit.

Hello

IOM expires in 6months
Also IOM address will carry Canada as a location not UK, so that might be a concern

If you can amend the details and use it before it expires then that's fine, if not then you will need a new one

Cheers

Unfortunately, you will have to begin counting after the day of the error.
Send a worded letter to the bank concerning this.
