SAT1: AlhamduliLLAH, got ma Visa today after exactly 10 working days. Thumbs up to Justice, Dammy and all other wise men in and ouside the forum.

Congrats, anoda fast 1. It shall b well wit us still waitin

Hello every1 am relatively new here but I'v been followin the thread.. Pls is there any1 who applied @ the VFS office @lekki since 5th of this month? I applied 4 my tier 4 visa and I ve not heard from them and my application still reads that it has been dispatched to the British Deputy High Commission on 05/08/2013 for processing..holla @ me any1 with same situation or any1 who knws better! Thanks!

wolske: Hi Justwise and other nairalanders. Please, can one withdraw some money from one's account after visa has been granted? I need to book my flight, but i'm confused as to whether i can withdraw from that account to book my flight even after obtaining one's visa. Somebody told me that the UKBA continues to monitor the account till you get to the uk. How true is this? Justwise, please your advice?

In addition, wjhat are the documents that would be asked for at the point of entry? Is it true that a yellow fever immunization is a requirement for entry?

Sure you can withdraw some money for your flight, they don't monitor your account until you get to the UK, the 7200 pounds is your money to use in the UK, whatever you do with it is your business

You don't need any yellow fever, if at all you need one it will be carried out at the POE, i doubt UKBA will trust any yellow fever paper you brought from Nigeria since we are good at forging anything.

Hold your CAS letter, bank statement (the one you submitted during visa application) in case you are asked.

Its 10 working days bro(weekend days not inclusive). I applied on 15th, and on checking my application status yesterday(29th) it read "documents ready to be collected"

JideVince:
Should be 19th August, I guess, if it's exactly 10working days today.

@Jidevince. While counting the number of days, should the submission date not be included? 15th to 29th is 11 working days if the submission date is included.

Yeah Abuja was the only available centre when I submitted ma online app

holyboy.com:
My mom has 2 accounts with a closing balance of 2.5million. Bt one is 10k USD and the other in Naira. Can i use the statement since i need to show my maintenace fee only. 7200. I dont knw if d accounts must have been without withdraw for 28days cos she recently gave my twin 10k from her domicilary leaving her wit 10kUSD.

The account statement(s) may have wihdrawals BUT at no time during the 28-day period should the available balance go below the equivalence of £7200.

Anxiety won't make you get the VISA but I know peace of mind and prayer will keep you in a better state of mind. Just remain positive and hopeful.

@don oms,
Tnx...do u know ow long it cud take to hear from dem?

Thanks so much Justwise for your comments. But my bank statement was not returned to me when i collected my visa o. Is this the case with every other person? Will it be okay if i print out a new bank statement as long as the figure does not go below the required amount?

You don't need to show any document to UKBA provided ur LG is paying the money( sch fee+maintenance) into ur account, all u need do is wait till after 28days of the payment b4 u apply.

Contact your school to know if your CAS has been updated after the payment, if they replied and say yes then print-out the email and attach it to your application
