For those of us who have taken fight already, which airline offers the best baggage allowance vis a vis comfort
Emirates quotes 30kg while Airfrance, Lufthansa and KLM quote 23kg*2 [all for Economy class]
Did any one make excess baggage allowance payment [I really see some crazy prices per excess kilogram]?

marcdeco: Hi all

I want to know what i have to do as there are more boxes for the sponsor license number than the license number of my sponsor?
Should i begin by some "0" or should i let some boxes empty at the end?

And at the beginning of page 5 of the appendix 8 do we have to fill questions 5.12 if we didn't school in UK as undergraduate (i schooled in my home country). i am intending to take a postgraduaten there...

Thanks for your prompt and clear answer

Seems you are numb to the fact that your sponsor's license number is unique?
Why do you want to add a zero therein?
A zero your sponsor didn't include

N/A= Not Applicable should do for your answer/response

Bus pass cost defer from city to city, wait until you get to Liverpool, register and get your student ID and student union card, with those two you will get loads of discounts from all sorts of travel tickets

Deolu_1993:
Hey guys i just wanted to clarify somn. so basically the part of the vaf 9 personal details form that asks you if you have travelled in the last 10yrs, what if you were given a 2yr visa and have travelled for holz in between, do you put the date( you were given the visa) and then 2yrs in the duration section or do you put the individual dates of all the times you travlled in btw plus their duration. eg say you travel in december for 3weeks and for summer (2months) do you make mention of these in the travel history. Btw does it make a diff if you make your visa app in abuja vs lagos. Thanks

anonymous26:

Yes you make mention of all of it. Make mention of all the times your visa was stamped let me put it like that regardless of it you were using the same visa or not! Because of the rush hour it is faster to make your application in Abuja for quicker result. If you have the opportunity make it in Abuja. If not do ikeja in Lagos. Lekki applications are sent to sheffield which takes longer time. But Abuja is your best bet!

anonymous26:

Around 12pm i checked it. It was still saying it was forwarded to BHC. Around 3 i checked it, it said "Your processed passport is in transit to your visa application centre" or something close. I just checked again and it says "your application is ready for collection: please visit the UK visa application centre where you submitted your visa application to collect the same". Sheffield replied my mail to say my visa was issued on friday tho. Thank God.

Yes 22 working days. exactly one month 16/08 to 16/09. Thank God!
