Don Oms:
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!

Thanks Don oms,I have the deadline on my CAS already, but should I still go ahead writing d letter notifying d 2weeks extension deadline or ECO will see it on the CAS.

morr1tz: My bother submitted his visa application at Abuja just two days ago and this morning received this email from ukba;;

Your application has been approved and the visa has been issued. We aim to return passports to the VAC within 2 working days. You can check the location of your passport at www.ukvac-ng.com.

I thought the process takes up to two weeks. When I applied last year mine took about 8 working days and I thought they don't state whether the visa approval status normally.

U are wrong. That website and msg is genuine.

Hmmm dts really strange. Dt website is real of course, but I hv never heard of ukba telling result of ur application...even the 2 days is quite surprising but it is not impossible.
Ur bro shd just thread with caution, use the application tracking link n know wats really up with his passport.
Don't forget to keep us in d loop

hmmm

I don't like arguments, especially on my field of work.

Pls, whatever you do on that site, you do on your own peril.
However it affects you, that's ur business.

That link might be real, but the server behind it serves pages from www.vfs.org.in

For the most basic, download google chrome and visit that link.

A simple call to vfs centre will confirm or otherwise.
That link is 110% real. Period!

Can I use correction fluid on my form? The hand-written one not the type written?

The letter is nt necessary then. But if you like, you can still write it; that will mean you're telling the ECO to do his job well by opening his eyes...lol.

royalsweetness: Can I use correction fluid on my form? The hand-written one not the type written?

Of course, you can; especially if it is just a few letters. if it's up to me, I'll just reprint that page and fill it again anyway.

VFS is an indian company and their backbone servers are indian links. Not only is the site real, the issue shouldn't be an argument. Let the said brother just track it. After all, the message didn't say he should come to a particular place for collection or that he should send further details or money.

Pls after submitting my application I am seriouly in need of cash can I withdraw from my maintenance fees

xteeeee: Pls after submitting my application I am seriouly in need of cash can I withdraw from my maintenance fees

It is not advisable, because if it will bring the balance below the stipulated amount by UKBA, it will disrupt your 28days counting and you might have to start counting all over again and maybe fall below the stipulated sum. I'll advise that you source for alternative funds and when your visa come out, you can draw any money from that account.

Please advice, I own an enterprise and applied for a uk visa two weeks ago and still

Little money to purchase goods for my shop and have not been able to pay in money

What is the most advisable thing to do concerning accommodation?
Should I go ahead and make arrangement for the whole 52 weeks or I should just settle for the minimum contract available pending my arrival then I can make an informed decision concerning my accommodation?
I intend staying in an ensuite accommodation and can't seem to find any available in my school hostel.
I am asking you this question coz am guessing we are both heading for Salford.
Kindly advise as far as accommodation is concern.
I need a nice accommodation and won't mind if it is private but must not be above the schools price range.

My hair is covering one of my ears in the passport photograph I want to submit, hope there's nothing wrong with that
