Hello house, I want to find out from those that got their ielts result how they got it and how long. Again, I want to know the documents that are being collected by TLS contact when going for biometrics to enable me know what to go their with. Thanks all for your response.

Realgeo:

tayeby78:

For biometrics they collect only your current passport, The first page of your application form and evidence of payments for application and nhs. They also scan all your previous passport containing visas and stamps. Remember to make a copy of all your previous passport page containing visas and stamps.

Isommex:
@tosine what about English test and tuberculosis test is it the sponsor that summit that or applicants on biometric day.

EvaMD:

and everyone else..... it has been a horrible long wait trying to fulfill requirements guys. i wont lie.

for those who don't remember my history, i'll gladly summarize. - Hubby is british. we were living together in Nigeria for 5years with our kids who are also british until october last year when he decided to relocate. i am here in Nigeria with kids.
Got 3 months renewable contract NHS admin job in february, just on borderline of 19kpounds before tax. We have about two months payslips that reads 1500pounds+ each month and others before nhs job that read less than 1500pounds. we are planning to wait to have one or two months payslips more to add and then apply. I am tired o. please must it be 6months, please? does it mean no one ever sent less than 6months payslips and got the visa? we have NHS employment letter that doesn't say end of contract....

He is also about to pick up another side job next week just to patch up.

for accommodation, his uncle lives in a 5bedroom apartment with his wife(both use one room), a son in one room and three rooms vacant as two other kids are in uni. He says we can use his house as proof of accommodation? is this true? if true how?? what document will we need to prove that there is space for me and two kids? hubbys name is already on this address as he has been living there since he left nigeria.

Please help or we should just go and get the 2 bedroom flat or house as we planned before? how long should he have lived there before i apply? can we get a 1bedroom house for starters just for this application? we have 5yr old son and 4yr old daughter.

can he pay for my application from over there with his card online and ill just give him log in details? all this gtbank intl limit and co wont let me pay that huge amount online? pls kindly confirm and enlighten me

this nhs thing, hubby says i dont have to pay the surcharge but i know i have to pay, abeg how do i make him understand that i have to. He says he went to gov.uk and there is no option for if your partner is british only applicable to those going to meet people who are on some kinda visas.

me i am even tired of being alone and raising kids alone...him toocant wait. wants kids to start school in september....

please just advise, help, tips, all..wisdom all are very much welcome....please guys

tayeby78:
Could you please send me the links or something to these posts. I've been following this page religiously ......maybe I missed it.

Lexusgs430:


Does it mean we can use the house?? if they inspect, what will they be looking for??

6 months payslips we have, just not all shows he earned atleast 1500pounds per month to multiply by 12 to make 18600. can we use all like that or they must state minimum 1600 earned each month.

IHS... i know i have to pay, i just need something to show him where he can read same.


- Not submitting 6 months pay slip, as requested(its a prerequisites for settlement visa application). Is an instant rejection...........
- Since sponsor resides in a multiple occupancy house, a property inspection is required......
- How do you intend to proceed with your application online, without inserting the IHS payment ?

If you reference back to all the advice offered in the past, all the advice that was offered all still remains valid.....

NB: You can take a risk and submit what you got. But You, I & others can already tell you the outcome of a risky application......

Lexusgs430:


- Weigh cost of new accommodation vs present accommodation vs property inspection report
And then decide if present accommodation is more cost effective or new accommodation is better.....

richdopeboi:
Thanks a lot waiting period is long can my sponsor mp do anything @ lexusgs430?

sync12:

Hello Richdopeboi,
Any news from them? I just got the " the application not straightforward" email from them. On googling the outcomes after such email; mixed outcomes....argghhh!
House, please any insight? I am 34 weeks pregnant and planned to travel and deliver in UK. God please oh

Lexusgs430:


Normal application or priority application? Not straightforward simply means, give us more time. Does not point into any direction, either positive or negative response...............

sync12:


Hello Lexusgs430,
It is Non-priority, biometrics done on the 16th of February.Thanks

Lexusgs430:


You simply have to wait and keep your fingers crossed. Have a Plan B (just incase). And if you give birth in Nigeria, the dimensions of your application changes. Whew.....................
We emphasise the importance of priority applications, for such sensitive deadlines....
Hopefully it would be issued in good time and the airline would be willing to transport you.....
NB: Well, not unless you have a private jet.......

sync12:


Biko ohhh, please how will having a child in Nigeria change the dimension of my application? I couldnt do priority because of transit visa refusal by Germany 5 years ago

Did you apply as an individual or with the unborn child? Assuming you solely applied, visa gets issued and you give birth in Nigeria. Do you intend leaving baby behind?
You now see my dimensions?
NB: People have applied for settlement visas on the back of visa refusals to the USA & UK.......

Hello my good people. Please i need your assistance on the followings questios on the visa application form.

1.) Have you ever used, or been known by, any other names? This includes a married name, maiden name, name at birth, professional name.
if yes based on the fact am married...should the surname and given names/forenames to input be my husbands surname or maiden?

2.) To be double sure is there anywhere in the form that needs maiden name to be inserted. Need to be sure am on track.

Thanks in advance...

sync12:

I applied as an individual though i included my Pregnancy US report as part of evidence of genuine relationship. If i give birth in Nigeria(hopeful get the visa), i will wait for baby's British passport (hubby is british)to come out before relocating. I meant that i wasnt eligible to use the priority service because of previous refusal as per the priority service eligibility criteria.

justwise:


1.Write the name you are known by before marriage, that is exactly what the question is referring to.

2. All application forms has a space for maiden name
