Hello house. This is my first post here. Your answers have been really helpful.

My school is resuming 14th September. I am submitting my online application tomorrow and I'll be using the Abuja center. I am told I can only get an appointment day 2 days after online payment. I am a bit worried as time is against me. Your thoughts please. Thank you

Abeg, there's no point going to the collection centre if you haven't got the email inviting you to come collect. I was at the V.I collection centre today, sat in a long queue and then queued again upstairs. I had gotten the decision email since Saturday (but not the collection one). The guy at the counter simply tracked my application and said "it's not ready". That was all.

If I had got the email, I could have at least argued that I was told to come, but I just wasted my time going there today. I guess I was just really curious to know the outcome because time is very vital in situations like these.

From my experience I can tell you that GTB aren't telling you the solely truth. I have been trying to pay my tuition for the past 3 weeks via form A too in access bank but the manager keep telling me there is scarcity of international currency to bid. After persistent calling, telling them I'll take the money back and opt for online transfer from another bank and a lot of prayers they did it yesterday.
I'll advise you keep disturbing them every hour so they know it's no joke.

I want to believe this is for a visit. The questions would be different but the person has to come with the necessary documents and also know about what and where the husband is studying or living.

It's been 10 working days since I submitted my application at the VI VAC, and am so eager to get this email saying a decision has been made. I am really anxious. I can't wait to pay for my flight and bus ticket to school.

Hello, I just need to ask about the PTA. Is it really compulsory? All I have being doing is informing my bank so they can activate my card for international transfer. It's also easy opening a UK bank account. All you need to do is go to the bank with a letter from you school, a letter of occupancy and your passport. It's very simple.
Note: Be specific about the kind of account you want to open.

I returned from the UK after my graduation in June. I still have a valid student visa up till October. I have now gained admission to study Law in another university in the UK. I want to obtain my visa here before leaving. My mother has an investment with kakawa Discount House which she has operated for over 3 years. It is a monthly investment that she rolls over which runs into millions. Kakawa has also given us a letter to that effect and we have printed copies of the monthly letter they always issue to her. We printed each month for the past 12 months. The question is: Does the British embassy accepts Kakawa Discount House. It is a financial house and First Bank has the highest shares. It has also been given approval to operate as a merchant bank. Please I need advice. Has anyone tendered a letter from Kakawa in the past? What was your experience?

I tried severally with GTB without success. Can I fund my paga wallet or am I likely to have same issue?

djfrancis:


Who said that? There is actually no specific date as you will be given a range of dates to choose for your appointment.

First of all I will like to appreciate the vital information this forum has provided and the relentless effort of everyone here so as to make sure we all make it to UK. You guys are awesome

Back to the matter:

Abeg oo make u na help me see to this issue ooo. I went for my interview on the 13th of this month (at the I keja centre) and my application was transfered to the UK immigration people on the 18th and up till now, no decision has been made with respect to my application. Am not actually so comfortable with the mental stress this gives me. Am thinking of sending the UK immigration people a mail directly as I feel the TLC's in nigeria are beginning to drive towards the incompetence lane in these deadline hours. I will appreciate if I can get the UKIV email I can send a tracking request to so I can know my faith.

This suspense why this people dey give person no be here. [color=#000099][/color] Abeg make Usa advice me before I go go complicate matter.

Thanks

There's no actual email address, you can drop them a message at https://www.gov.uk/contact-ukvi-outside-uk

They usually reply within 24 hours, sometimes faster. 18th is just 5 working days ago, there's no need to have mental stress regarding this. Give them time. Lol
