I didn't submit any copies of my previous travel history and my visa was approved.

If you look closely at your passport, you'll see previous passport number, it's for a reason. Your previous travel history can be traced with your passport number. Personally, I don't think you need to upload it at all, since they trace or track your travel history.

AKB1ofLagos:
Oh yes, past travel details were filled in the form and my current passport which was uploaded has some of the visas and stamps on it so i did not submit copies. I am hoping for the best either way. Thank you for the response, you have been of great help to me this morning.
Have a great day.

You don't have to. Not necessary.

adenike09:
Can anyone help me with this please quote?

Thanks.


quote author=adenike09 post=93609332]Hello my people,

I like to know, should I make hotel reservation for the first 2weeks and upload it on the TLS page alongside my other documents?

Is it necessary or should I leave it out?

Thank you

I didn't book any temporary hotel or accommodation and my visa application was approved.
So you don't have to book temporary hotel or accommodation for visa purpose. You're not expected to do so. Just know where you'll be staying and the cost of the type of accommodation you'll need. You might be asked during your interview.

Best of luck

Mayfay20:
Good morning everyone.
Please for those that have received visas, did any one book a temporary hotel for the visa purpose to move into an accomodation later over there.
Please can any advise on what to do in this regard. I am thinking of booking a hotel for now with free cancellation. Is it okay to make payments here for an apartment i have not yet seen or agents not verified?
Thank you in advance fellow brothers and sisters

Same experience with me. But it doesn't matter. Maybe the questions were much because I was the first to be interviewed that day. My thoughts though.

liliberth:
Why is everyone getting just 4 questions but I got almost 20 questions. ������

I just got the good news. My visa has been approved.

Thanks everyone for everything.

You don't have to pay a penny. I used my dependant time and date and i didn't pay a dime. As long as there's an appointment for that day and time, you're not supposed to pay.

solarinde:


I am asking because, I don’t get a closer appointment. I got 24th September when my school resumes on 14th September. But for my dependants, I was able to get 19th August with prime time appointment which am planning to go in with them since I am the main applicant then pay 42k for flexi when I get in. Would have suggested you do same, but since you don’t have , keep trying. I am looking out to amend mine may be I can escape paying 42k. If dates pops up will alert you. Cheers

I was asked who contributed money towards my studies. That question was asked because i said I'm self sponsored.

Ibromoney:
Were you asked about your source of money?

I gave a direct answer: Yes they'll be traveling with me.

I wasn't asked what they'll be doing.

I paid with my dollar card.





[quote author=Sommylove5 post=92471255][/quote]

Yes we did.

hadidej:
@achi32... Did you and your family apply together?

He didn't say when the visa will be ready, I don't think they do.

I don't have relatives in the UK but I've friends. He went further to ask if the said friend is a student or if he's working.

About the quarantine, he didn't made mention of it. He just asked where I'll be staying, cost and type of apartment.

hadidej:
Did the interviewer hint when your visa would be out? Do you have relatives in the uk? Was the interviewer ok with you quarantined with family member?

Nah, i didn't. I paid the required deposit and CAS was issued. No statement of account or TB test result

umofiaeng:
I finally did my visa interview today. I'm happy it went well.

These are the questions i was asked:

Did you considered other schools before applying to University of Strathclyde?
Why did i choose University of Strathclyde?
Have i been to the UK before?
What's my future career plans?
Where will i be staying and the kind of apartment I'll be renting?
Why did i choose to study in Scotland?
What have i been doing after my undergraduate?
How much am i earning currently?

The interviewer was really nice and friendly. I'll advise those preparing for interview to be calm and truthful. It's just you having a conversation with another person.

Best of luck.



Did you submit your TB certificate and statement of account to the school before a CAS statement was issued?

Yes you can.

umofiaeng:
Hello,
I am also going to the University of Strathclyde.
Can I send a mail to you, pls?

Yes you can but you can as well ask the question here.

[quote author=Sommylove5 post=92456845][/quote]

Nah, it was a video interview in a cubicle.

Kingp91:
Was it an in person interview ? Or how was it conducted

Nah, he didn't. He was only interested in the area, the cost of the apartment and the type of apartment since I'll be going with my family.

Nah, they didn't ask for any other documents. The documents asked for was the documents stated in TLS email (print out of the appointment notification and your international passport). I did self upload though.

bayosegun:
Congratulations.

Pls when they ask of where you'll be staying, do they ask u for prove like accommodation receipt?

Do they request for hard copies credentials again, like bank statement after self upload.

Thanks

You're welcome.

Aprokodaughter:

Hopefully I'll give feedback after the interview.

Arhmiee:


All the best at your interview tomorrow.

Thanks a lot. God bless!

mimilyrics:
I'd suggest colour copies to make your scans look as close to the originals as possible but as long as they are clear and legible, you're good to go.

Please i need clarification with the colour of photocopied documents that will be submitted during visa interview. Should it be a coloured copy or in black and white?

Thanks.

Okay.

bayosegun:


Akchi pls response to ur mail

My dollars card was used for all the payments.

Bikaa27:


Please how were you able to make payment for both IHS and application fees? What bank card did you successfully use?

Not all schools. My school didn't ask for interview or bank statement. I paid my deposit and CAS was sent to me. It's different for every school.

eonwusah:
Please i want to ask something for anyone that have the idea to reply me. Must you show the school your 28 days statement of account after paying deposit before they issue CAS or do different schools have their own specific requirement for CAS.Waiting for response.Thank you

I kept trying by the hour. Just keeping checking their site.

garuskoko:


Pls what did you differently that made the dates appear? Pls help me. Pls can I send you an email?

I'm experiencing exactly the same thing. I've been on it for two days also. Please let's know if you've had similar challenge before and how it was resolved. Thanks.

garuskoko:
Can someone pls help me out with Booking an appointment. I have been on it for two days now, no dates are showing up when the UK.gov website redirects me.
For my dependants, they date are showing and I can actually book appointment.

I have changed device, changed browser, no dates.. checked all the way to December, no dates.
I want to book my appointment before my dependants but for some reason I just can't see any dates for anything.
Anyone having similar issues?
Someone Pls

I'm yet to book an appointment. Its seems as if TLS is yet to start accepting appointments. I've tried several times without success.

SegunWamiri:


Great. What date were you able to get?

garuskoko:


You will have to use a USD card. This is what I did.

Have you successfully booked an appointment?

Yes i have but I'm yet to book an appointment for biometrics.

Celomomo:

Lesley90:
