Hello

With the current exchange rate N5m is approximately £5000

That doesn't even cover your maintenance funds

There's no Uni with fees of £5000

It might be worth saving more or perhaps checking other affordable countries.

Cheers

so what is your advice sir

Good day to everybody in the house. We're currently in UK myself as M.A and my wife as a dependent for over a month now, we want to start POF for our 2kids aged 12 and 8yrs respectively next week so that we will be able to apply for them towards August ending.

However, I need advice on the following questions;

(1). How much should I put for there maintenance for outside London?

(2). About the issues of my tution ballance of £7,200, should I include it in the new POF?

(3). About the issue of Accomodation/ proof of Address, which for now we're currently living in a sheared 2bedroom apartment and the landlord had agreed that we should use the address as proof of address for their application and later get our own 2 bedroom after the approval of their visas since our NI and UK bank statements carry the same address. My question now is, can we use the address or we should get a new 2bedroom before applying for them? Seriously waiting for response. Thanks and God bless.

Thanks bro.

We are hopeful

Isiterere:

Why are you panicking? Your dependants application is still within 15 working days, just because you got yours earlier does not mean they will get theirs. Application on an individual basis.
Calm down, be hopeful, and continue further preparation.

Chrisomila:
I have HND in Mechanical Engineering Upper Credit and I have #5m I need advice on which cheap schools to apply to and will the 5m be enough for me as a self sponsor to UK or any other countries. No dependant .

That money would be enough for Poland.

I can help you get at admission this October intake.

If you are ready with your transcript and waec.

Then you need to authenticate it at ministry of foreign affairs and education in Abuja. This won't take upto 1 week to be done if you use GIG logistics.

Or you travel by yourself.

Any student heading to Surrey, Guildford here?

Hello house

How I respond to this? I don't have Ecctis

Hello @duchess90 and other gurus in the house.

Please I have few questions to ask;
1. Is it the same reference letter used to apply for school admission we are to use for student route visa application as well?

2. For someone who had a visa refusal earlier this year, am I to declare it with evidence (the refusal email from UKVI) during my application or it’s okay to just declare it without uploading the refusal email from UKVI?

3. Hope I wouldn’t need any employment letter/reference as I graduated 2019, started NYSC 2021 and finished 2022 (couldn’t go 2020 due to the coronavirus outbreak).. I hope my NYSC certificate can suffice?

Please to gurus who there interview is rescheduled for one or two reason..it takes how long to be rescheduled for the 2nd interview..my BP is rising on daily basis

Please my promotion letter is not ready yet as I just got promoted last month neither have I been given my confirmation letter. Will appointment letter only suffice or I need to add something else? My appointment letter is dated 2020 and my BSc is 2014 @duchess pls help

AdeolaFoods:

Am also a federal civil servant, I am only dropping my appointment and promotion letter

quote author=sovicangel post=124571393]Gurus in the house please is reference compulsory for civil servants? I thought employment letter and payslip is enough

Thank you. Will leave the payslip out

fematcommand:
Payslip is not needed don't include that to sabotage your effort.

Good evening all,

Please I am finding it difficult to start my Visa application process on GOV.UK. If I click on NO on the second question which says DO I HAVE EU PASSPORT, the app will re-send me back to the first question WHERE I WANT TO LIVE. This has been the case since yesterday so I don't think it's network issue. Though I used the link sometimes November 2022 but I didn't complete the process since I didn't later applied for the Visa.

Could it be because of that because I read that access may be difficult if one didn't revisit the process after 10 weeks?

If yes, then what can I do please?

Thanks

When did you do your biometrics?

9th of June

Knowledgeispowe:
Please I need your advice, my school is asking to add additional 20% to my POF before they issued CAS due to naira flautication. Ordo I have more than the required amount before now the school required an additional 20% before they can issue CAS. I don't have money to pay for school fee topup which would have been the best idea, can I use my fixed deposit or pension savings kindly advise

What school? That was what my school said

I asked the officer in charge that if I need to give money he should let me know but he said it's not about money... I am confused



Na Money dem won collect. It happened to me too you need sure link in collection room pay him and he will helph. I spent almost 500k for 10 years passport out of which 150k was for bribing when they said it jumped quality control add it will be done in abujq[/quote]

Oladepo812:
No.

If I may ask also, did it(employment letter) show your monthly pay or it doesn't contain your financial package at all?

Otokitifunmi:
Please help,

My husband is the MA, we did our TB test on Wednesday at IOM, mine was ok but they said they would have to conduct another test on him (sputum test) because they saw something in his chest. Note: he has never had any symptom of TB. They said the result will be out in 10weeks.

He tried to book appointment with other centers and the closest date he got for St. Nicholas was August 24th, meanwhile the deadline for his school (Ulster) is 18th August. What is the way out?

Should he gate crash the hospital maybe he can get another test done before that date?
Who has a contact at St. Nicholas that can help?
I'm just worried because this Sept is the deadline for bringing dependents.

Thanks in anticipation for your response.

1) I will advise you to wait for the test to come out. He should email the school and let them know about his situation. His health is more important than anything. The school’s enrollment deadline is around October, so hopefully the result will be negative. And then you can use super priority.
2) Try another hospital

Goodevening all,
