I thought I was the only one who notice this. I stopped replying his quote when I saw he wasn't prepared with the whole application with the way he keeps answering same old questions again.

Study permit application is not rocket science, many people here that got the permit didn't ask many questions before applying. I'm so surprised someone going for postgrad could be asking & taking basic issues this way.

I hope he's not scammed with the way he send PMs, he will only have himself to blame anyways.

Nadratan:
I can tell that you are vulnerable from the way you ask questions. And if care is not taken, you are going to screw your application up or get scammed. Answers have been provided to all the questions you asked and you kept asking the same questions all over and spamming the TL. Why not carefully go through this thread and get the information you seek. I believe the answers to your questions are already here. And if you are to ask again, just type all your questions in a single post and take your time to digest the answers that will be provided to you. I did my visa application myself and I got all the information on this forum, so I can tell you that it is possible for you to do it too...

The issue of flight reservation is the simplest in this process and I have answered you that if you are applying in February, there is no need making reservations now in December. Its going to be the last thing that you are going to do. You can even make the booking on the day of submission.

Also, you need to ask people maybe you need a return ticket for student visa, if not, then you only need to book one way.

I wish you the best of luck.

P.S: Stop hiting people up in Private, you might get scammed.

abdullahi45:
Thanks (please reply your pm).

OK. I will do it a day ahead. Thanks
How do i do that? I doubt my debit card can do that because of transaction limit.
You can help me get tickets? How do you mean boss? Am i not supposed to get it and pay directly to them?

Processor01:
Honestly, it will be difficult to get an off-campus accommodation before you arrive because, in SA, the lease agreement is a big deal.
My advice is, get the hotel accommodation for at least 2 days to boot.

Hopefully, someone from Free State axis may be able to offer better support.

Processor01:
Honestly, it's faster to reach me here than email.
You can pay for your hotel reservation using your regular naira card.

Regarding hotels, I sincerely cannot make any recommendations since I reside in the Waterfront area of Cape Town.
Best bet is to use google maps - that is exactly how I did my booking last year.

abdullahi45:
Good evening Gurus.

I have questions regarding this flight reservation matter.

I tried booking few minutes ago, my program is starting by Feb 05 so i choose Date of departure: Feb 01, 2018 and my program is supposed to end by December 2018 but the Day of Return/Arrival according to the airline calendar didn't pass November 12. So what can i do? Can i book from that same Feb 01 till Nov 12? I hope there's nothing bad in it?

Or what do you advise. Please advise me accordingly.

Thecassanova:
1. Yes you can apply immediately

2. Are u sponsoring yourself? If NO, why didn't you put letter of sponsorship from the sponsor (parent,Uncle etc) stating they gonna be sponsoring you with their ID attached? That's why we strongly advice people here to read through all the pages before asking Q's or applying.

3. Submit with photocopies of all documents its fine.

4. On the SOP state the reason for your denial and how you've amended it by getting new statement of account from bank letter with ID of sponsor, letter of sponsor, signed & attached.

5. Contact your HOD, and if possibly your potential supervisor.

I advice you bother more on getting the visa than meeting up with the semester.

despam:
There's nothing anybody can do about it. Airlines cancel flights reservation after 48 or 72 hours.

You can book the day before submission or on the day of submission.

despam:
I booked my flight reservations the day before submission and there was no issue. The embassy is aware that flight reservations get cancelled after 72 hours. There's nothing to worry about.

After securing visa, you will pay for tickets in Naira. I can help you get tickets. Nothing to worry about.

abdullahi45:
I hope there's no problem booking a day ahead?

Also the south Africa Airlines, i can see payment here in Dollars, how do i finally pay for the flight, let assume i got the visa and want to fly?

Processor01:
Hotel duration - 2days is okay.
Medical cover - pay for your momentum from Nigerian card.

TimoBriggs:
@Femiaction and the experts ...

Please what duration of hotel should i book as verifiable confirmed hotel booking for a critical skills visa : 10days , 20days or 30days ??

despam:
I booked mine the day before the two times I applied and it still served the purpose. If you can book same day, it is still good. I used South African Airways but you can use any other airline.

imoniyi:
SAA is after 3 days oo. Or 2 sef

imoniyi:
Booking doesn't take time and they won't deduct ur money

Nadratan:
Travelstart is not an airline... Example of airlines are South Africa Airways (flysaa), Kenya airways, Rwanda Airways, Ethiopia Airways etc... like I advised, use flysaa...and the process of reservation is very easy. You have to make the booking on the day you want to go and submit your application. its very fast, you should be done under 10mins.

And while filling, please ignore the VAT INVOICE option.... You don't need it.

abdullahi45:
Gurus should please respond to this. Thanks

I started counting 28 days immediately the money reflected. The day it reflected was day 1. he had under 10K in his personal account before then and he just transferred 5M (this was in 2016) which was the maintenance money at that time from his business account. I gave it 2 more days after the 28 days before he went to the bank to ask for statement.

I came here to Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge and my confirmation of Award and Transcript for a Masters Degree in ICT is waiting for me at home at the moment.

Book directly from the airline. You can use South Africa Airways. Even though the reservation is going to be cancelled after 5 days, its still going to serve its purpose. just make sure you book directly from the airline. Its not going to cost you anything. But I'd advise you use South African Airways.

My dad dumped the money into his account at once and it didn't cause any problems for me. He transferred it from his business account tho so i don't know if that was the reason why i didnt have a problem
