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

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.

Phina1009:


Thanks.
Yea, I sent an email to the school this afternoon as well.
I will just wait and hope for the best.

I am going to University of Roehampton.

A lot of the flight tickets with multi-stops I’m seeing are self-transfer. Meaning I’ll need to re-check in by myself at these stops, is it advisable to take such tickets?

pruby:


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

I just applied last week and I also submitted a reference letter from FirstBank and I have been calling them everyday to check if a mail was sent to them from UKVI.
Did they acknowledge that UKVI sent them a mail but they didn’t respond in time?

If you can reach the airlines directly, you can get a cheaper available flight. I was able to book a direct flight with British airways at a rate of 799 naira per $

On their website that date wasn't even available and the cost was cheaper than Ethiopian and Qatar airways prices for same time gap (4 days before)

Hello Everyone,

Please what could be the reason why I've not received a collection mail or decision letter for my application by mail, although from the tracking website, decision has been made and application has been received by VAC, I was to receive my passport from DHL yesterday but a mistake was made with the shipment and I should be expecting it tomorrow.

Am I not suppose to receive this mail before I get my passport and is there any reason for me to be worried?

Ayire:
If your stopover in Frankfurt a technical landing you don’t need a transit visa.
Ethiopia airline has series of flights with technical landing in European countries and it doesn’t require a transit visa.

Escalation - 7th September
Paid Mail( since I was advised not to call...lol) - 12th September (still awaiting decision as at 6pm)

THEN I DECIDED TO TAKE IT UP IN PRAYER. At this point I needed a miracle as my flight had already been booked for the 17th September.

I responded to the paid mail around 12AM clearly stating my case again.

More prayer. That the passport be returned to Nigeria before Friday.

ALL GLORY TO GOD! It's still like a dream to me, I indeed experienced a miracle.

I was strengthened with 2kings7:1-20. Where the people of Israel experienced an unusual overnight victory.

I pray for those still waiting that you experience an unusual speed in Jesus Name, Amen!


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

Also, if the tracker says transfer to VAC what does it mean? Is it that the decision taken is positive or we don't know yet?

ANYONE PLS??

Hello

Standard checks on decision timeline

Did you apply for standard visa or priority?

Is it past the average decision wait time

You could fill it up. It has nothing to do with the decision on your application though

Hi
Have you gotten your visa

Cheers
