Hello House, I need help in accessing my application, My biometric was on Saturday 8th September, I got a DMC mail on Monday, and there has not been update nor information since then. I tried to track my application but I only got the information below. Please is there anything I can do to view my status. I want to see DMC, NSF, VAC etc, but its only taking me back to the status I was before I submitted. Is there any further direction or directives to proceed further. I thank you all for your help. God bless us all. My resumption is 18th

Click on resume, login and go to provide biometrics. It will take you to tls website and you can just click on track…by the way, you would not want to see nsf oh lol. It wld mean that your application is not straight forward

Sanctus1:
POE experience at Birmingham international airport.

When you land the airport , You will see two directions. One for British citizens, America, Canada, Australia and some countries wey make sense.

The other direction is for Nigeria, India and other upcoming countries. I took that one and got to the immigration officer and thus this.

Officer: Where are you coming from?
Me: Nigeria
Officer: Where did you stop over
Me: Doha, Qatar
Officer: what’s your purpose in the uk?
Me: I am here for studies
Officer: What’s your Course of study and school ?
Me: MPH/ University of derby
Officer: How much have you paid?
Me: 14,900 £
Officer: Do you have your maintenance funds?
Me: Yes I do
Officer: How much is it in pounds?
Me: 9,207£
didn’t asked me to show him sha, he then stamped my passport.

I also ask my own question
Me: How cold is the Uk ?
Officer: It can get very cold so get your jackets ready soon.
Me: Like how soon will that be?
Officer: around October/November
Me : Thank you so much
Officer: welcome to the Uk with a smile

NB: most students are granted access because your information will pop up once they scan your passport. Question are asked for verification.

Boss I just sent you a mail

Tuition for one year

Karishma:
Good morning, I need some advice.

I got masters admission for 2 year course. I have paid deposit and I am in the process of gathering my funds for student visa. In showing proof of fund, do I need to have the full school fees or is showing proof of 1 year school fees enough?
Anyone has experience with 2 year courses?

Thanks

Print 30 days statement and make sure the balance for the 30 days is up to the amount stated on the email. You can run petty transactions like deposit 500 naira, recharge 200 naira. Ensure the balance doesn't go below the amount stated on the email for one day.

tushantuna:
I applied on August 21, and the POF is available in my bank account till now. What is the date bracket to print on bank statement to answer the request of ukvi? Thank you

I join in your prayers and say a very big amen.

@dduchess90 and all gurus in the building, u guys are amazing.. I really wanna say a big thanks to this great group for all the help. After much months of praying, at a stage it looked like my japa won't work again especially the OANDA madness time which affected my POF badly.. In all God came through.. Las Las I entered UK 🇬🇧 successfully.. Na UK I from dey drop this post now Middlesbrough to be precise.. To all thats still waiting for cas or visa, same almighty God that did it for me when it seems all hope was lost will do it for u too in Jesus name amen.

Big congratulations and best of luck in your studies! I am immediately drawn to anyone with a biometric date of 10th August. Could you shed more light on how you responded to paid mail. You sounded as if you waited for a response from your paid mail before you went ahead and state your case. Why did not you just state your case upfront when you were sending the paid mail.

Thank you to everyone for the help. God bless you!

I stated my case AGAIN. I had already stated my case when I made the paid calls mentioning that the processing time of 3 weeks had elapsed and emphasising that my school was resuming soon. Then it was escalated.

When I sent the first paid mail I just wanted to know the status of the application. After I received an "awaiting decision" response, I then went ahead and stated my case AGAIN.

Good day, please I want to know that if an HND graduate dependant gets sponsorship . Will he need IETLS for proof of English ?
Thanks

Hello

This is not a requirement for study visa so why do you say so and how is this a new update?

Not everyone will end up in the healthcare sector or working in sensitive offices with vulnerable people as part timers

Also they must finish their studies before switching which is typically in a year some even more.Police clearance certificate is usually valid for 3-6months so a waste of resources

Why are you advising people to get this document when it isn’t needed?

Cheers

Nanorest:
New update! Get your police report before travelling.

My wife's application has been decided for over 10days (decision has been made) but tracker is still at DMC, any idea what could be the reason. We have requested for it to be escalated after 15working days

It's required if you want to get a job faster. This is from people who travelled recently without one. I am not saying it's required to travel but if you want to work as a student, you might need it.

100% lie

Please any university of Greenwich group for September intake? I would like to join

Resurgent2016:


Yes

Thank you. Someone was saying the home office stopped it.

myhero:
100% lie

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 I just hate it when people bring beer parlour discussions here to confuse people.

1000% lie!!

Hello

So it isn’t required for study visa

It might be if you want a part time job in certain sectors I.e as a care worker I wouldn’t expect admin roles or warehouse to ask for PCC

Getting a PCC doesn’t mean you will get a job faster, you need to apply and pass any interview required. It may slow down your start date as PCC may be asked. Even if you had a PCC and it was required upfront , if you fail the interview you still won’t get a job fast

There’s also an option of DBS within the country which most healthcare sector may do on your behalf

Point is, it’s okay to get it but not the end of the world

I personally don’t see the need for one unless you target jobs in security / healthcare /teaching minors or vulnerable then yes , again DBS is an alternative

The way the message was posted will get people worried so I wanted to make sure it was absolutely clear that it isn’t compulsory and not an update

Cheers

Please is a transit visa needed for this flight?
