For Air France, Klm, Lufthansa you need a transit visa. Qatar Airlines you don't need one

Thank you

Sarmiz24:

See how u are arguing about what u don't know. He is very right oga, y not make ur research?

Good morning all,
Pls for those that av traveled to the UK via Qatar or air France, is it true that u will need a transit visa because of the stopovers?
Thanks

BolaT53:
Yes. But their stopover is at Paris and you’d need a transit visa.

Pls are u sure about this? What about Qatar?

cutelekush01:
My friend used Qatar last week, he is fully vaccinated and he didn’t do pre departure test.
However if you are less than 30, you can register on there site for students membership card and you will be given additional 23kg extra.

This is a story from a group chat narrated by a member of the group about her experience at Manchester Airport

Got to Manchester airport on 12th,and at the point of entry it was fireeeeee with questions from the IO....
Immigration officer:Good Morning
Me:Good Morning
Immigration officer:welcome to Manchester
Me:Thank you
Immigration officer:What are you here for??
Me:To study
Immigration officer:What school??
Me:University of Salford
Immigration officer :Do you have your balance with you??
Me:Yes I do
Immigration officer :Can I take a look at it
Me:I gave her my Bank statement I printed out before leaving Nigeria,mind I didn’t make transactions on the account the whole of December I only made transactions on the account in Nov which I think affected the whole situation and made her question me more,so I’d advice everyone to keep making transactions on his/her till you travel or when you still have your pof in your account..
Immigration officer:Are you sure you still have money in this account
Me:Yes I do....whereas you all know how we run the pof paro
Immigration officer:You only printed for Nov,I need to see for Dec and Jan
Me:in my head I said aha my fathers family finally followed me again ��I started shaking, I sha told her to check the date written on the print out which was 1st of Nov to 28th of dec.
Immigration officer ;said again I’m only seeing for Nov
Me:I just told myself I have to face this,I got more confident in myself and told her I didn’t make transactions in my account the whole of dec but the statement she has with her is from Nov to dec.
Immigration officer:Can you show me on your Bank App
Me:Told her I didn’t register for it
Immigration officer:Can I see your Atm card
Me:I told her I didn’t also register for it that the only proof I have is the bank statement with her
Immigration officer :How do you intend to balance your fee since you can’t access your account??
Me:Told her my mom is also a signatory to my account
Immigration officer :Where will you be staying here in Manchester
Me:With a friend
Immigration officer :How much do you have on you
Me:told her 200pounds
Immigration officer:How would you live on 200pounds since you can’t access your Account
Me:Told her my mom can always send money to me using my friends account
Immigration officer:Asked about my friend,if she working or school,her course etc I can’t remember some
Me:I lied at some points tho
Immigration officer:ask about my course told her
Immigration officer :Asked about the course modules told her
Immigration officer:how much is left to be paid told her
Immigration officer:which of the modules are you doing first told her (thank God I learnt about my modules very well before traveling)
Immigration officer:Will you be writing exams or dissertation??
Me:dissertation
Immigration officer:how many words
Me:I started thinking again that what kind of question is this one again,I just said any rubbish that came out of my mouth broke her 3000words��and smiled at her....na rubbish I talk for here o �����
Immigration officer:when is your first exam
Me:and I’m like wait they sent this woman to me cause wtf are these questions
(I told her ma honestly I can’t answer that cause I haven’t checked my timetable)
Immigration officer:did you send a message to the school telling them you got your visa and you would be coming to Salford
Me:Yes
Immigration officer:can I see the content
Me:I sent via my email
Immigration officer:can I see it
Me:opened my phone,scroll to my email and showed her
Immigration officer:went to check some of my other messages on the mail
Me:was just praying she doesn’t scroll to my bank app cause my own don finish na straight back to Nigeria,while she was checking a call came in she gave me the phone,I declined it and she collected it back,the call came in again she went to put my phone on flight mode and I was like wth,who sent this woman to me??my village people ?
Immigration officer:Take back your phone
Me:Thank you
Immigration officer:collected my file from me
Me:and I was ����

Immigration officer:went through all my documents in the file and saw where I worked with pandora and she asked are you sure you worked with pandora or it’s fake??
Me:I boldly told her yes I worked with them as so so so and so
Immigration officer:wow that’s nice
Immigration officer:saw the deposit payment I made and asked is this the deposit you paid
Me:yes
Immigration officer:how much was the discount given??
Me :3500
She was busy checking all my files and I was just praying to God at this point
Immigration officer:where is your laptop??
Me:Brought it out
And she checked and checked cause I spent more than 30mins with her.....trust me it was like 2hours I got exhausted at some points
She asked questions that I can’t even remember but these are just few of the ones I could remember....so guys be prepared for anything let your yes be yes and let your no be no,don’t contradict yourself when answering them o.....
Immigration officer:She finally stamped me and welcomed me again
Me:but me in my mind after killing me with questions I sha told her thank you and left.

This is my own personal experience and it’s fucking real... @Esther
Is a witness cause she was scared on my behalf and wondered what could have gone wrong.

What an experience! Thank God it eventually turned out fine.. It is well

Visa Alert!!!

Applied for Admission (with depression) - 24th November after Middlesex denied me CAS. That's a story for another day.

Admission granted - 30th November.

Applied for CAS - 11th December.

CAS issued - 16th December.

Applied for Visa - 17th December.

Biometrics - 17th December, Abuja TLS (Walk-in).

Paid Mail - 1st January... replied the next day, no decision made.

Paid Mail - 5th January... replied the next day, no decision made.

Paid Mail - 10th January... replied the next day, decision has been made. I became more nervous. Hehehe.

Collection Mail - 12th January... shipped with DHL that same. DHL literally crawled to Asaba from Abuja.

DHL Delivery - 14th January, 11:30 GMT+1. Visa granted.

Documents submitted - Transcript, Degree Certificate, POF, TB Test Certificate, NECO, CAS, Work Reference, HSE Certificates, Passport.

No NSF Mail.

Two refusals declared - Canada visit and Poland study.

Here is what I'd tell you all. If you don't have time to read every page on this thread, then this process isn't important to you. I don't want to hear your reason, if it is important, you'd make time for it. I came here when it was 508 pages and I read every of the pages (made screenshots) to the current page. I got everything I needed from here. People now pay me to even fill their visa applications and do admission processes for them because I seem like an expert. Just by reading thoroughly. Read o! Read! Stop looking for who'd spoon-feed you. Read! Search for schools, send them emails, call them to make enquiries, they're always happy to help from my experience.

I applied to 19 schools. 17 gave me admission, 2 are yet to make a decision (good luck to them), some conditional (IELTs), others unconditional. I left others and chose Middlesex before they tried to kill me by denying me CAS after 2 interviews - failed the 1st, passed the 2nd but they said my 2nd responses conflicted with the 1st. This happened on the 24th of November, same day I applied to Manchester Met - 5 days to Manchester Met's closing date for admission.

Your Personal Statement has to be very convincing. That was my selling point, I think! My inbox is filled with emails from different schools because I like to get the information directly from them.

For those that are yet to apply, include your work reference(s) and a detailed CV to your application. A CV cannot stand in for work reference(s). It is not mandatory but it will save you a lot of stress and/or time. Appointment letter is not really needed in my opinion. A letter of introduction from your employer covers that. If you need a format of such letter, just send me a message. You don't lose anything by including those in your application. However, you have everything to gain.

I don't believe in any god so for me, this is about doing the right thing, and not by praying to anyone.
Thank you to everyone that has shared his/her experience(s) here! They're invaluable!

Manchester, incominggggggg!

Nice one... I admire ur courage
Congratulations
