Lol dnt mind me jare, dy'll fix ur passport themselves.yes, print out ur online filled vaf9 and also the appendix which u'll then hand fill.

OK THANKS

bunburized:
When you say photocopies of all docs I assume u are referring to Vaf9, Appendix 8, Passport data page, bank statement and in my case Bsc degree certificate(this is d only doc stated in my cas).
What about the passport photograph? Should I affix it myself b4 heading to the vfs centre or I should wait until I get there?
How many passport photographs do I need?

No need to duplicate d forms n d statement, only 1 passport needed.

keji11: Someone help.Please i deposited money in current account on december 1 , if am to print bank statement for 28days must it reflect the day i deposited it.from dec 1-28 or 2-29. Need ur advice.Thanks

Please, Print Your Statement From November 30th to December 29th/30th. Ensure that you have a transaction on the first day of counting your 28 days, else the ECO might not be very clear and assume you have not had the money since the time you claim to have had it.

kellyemms: yup d required money i.e maintainance and outstanding tuition

Pay your money anytime you like. Start counting 28days from the next day after payment and ensure you have at least 20 days for visa processing before your school resumes.

If its tier 4 visa, the visa fee is 80, 460, you would see it while filling your application and even in the site.

Reference to the letters in bold: See me see yawa o. When did I say that? Please, always try to patiently read posts and understand them so as to avoid misinformation. I have always noticed people misquoting (or misunderstanding) others on NL and I think it's only simply because we do not pay attention to details but rush through everything in a new fast-paced world we have created for ourselves.
Anyway, to answer your question. The 28-day rule DOESN'T SAY it is working week. So your first day of counting is the Saturday i.e. DAY1 of 28 is Saturday.
And NO, you do not have to make any transactions the next day. What I had earlier advised is this: When you make complete-money deposit on the 1st of December, don't tell the bank to print a statement from 02 Dec - 29 Dec, because the implication is that the deposit of the 1st Dec will not reflect and the ECO may not be sure your money was there on the 1st Dec if your next transaction on the statement is not the 2nd of Dec. I know that may look confusing but we have had people lose visa application fees because of it.
So in essence, when you print your statement, let the 1st day on it be that same day you made full payment or a day before it. And try to deposit a little amount a day before the day you print your statement.
NO, DO NOT include any loan letters. It is not the ECO's business where you got money from.....We have said that times without number here.
I hope your comment on misquoting me hasn't made this post rather verbose.

Happy to hear the "appointment letter" wasn't a problem at the end of the day. But seriously, we didn't need to mention that, sis. Once you book an appointment, there is an instruction at the end of the booking that you must print your appointment letter and bring it with you to the Visa Application Centre. I think the print dialogue box even comes up immediately without any stories. Also, it has always been mentioned on this thread in recent times. Wait a minute! Did you use your mobile phone to book the appointment?

I understand your situation and it is not uncommon with us Nigerians. The implication is this: It is risky. God forbid, (1) but if you have delay in your visa processing, it might lead to refusal; (2) or if refused visa, there will be no time to either re-apply or submit an Admin Review Notice.
While that is said, and in the hope that the above will not happen, this is what you should do. ENSURE you let your school indicate the deadline of resumption on your CAS. And if not, let them write an additional note along with your CAS to UKBA. And if not, let them send you an email telling you of the extension and then you print it out and add it to your application. Also, you may need to write a short formal introduction letter you will address to the UKBA and note there that there is a two-week extension on your resumption date.
If this is done, you will reduce the risk of refusal due to late application. But ensure you have every other thing correct and in order because you must be given the visa, else you will be forced to wait till another admission entry. Good Luck!
