This thread is a wonderful place to source for ideas..
all thanks to the gurus.

I’m really trying so hard to decide on which city to stay for job availability and conducive environment to bring up kids. We’re family if 4 and already gotten our visas. I’m to study at SHU (Sheffield) but classes are two times a week and online for now. I’m seriously considering staying with my family in a city where we can find good jobs and good houses to raise our little kids.

Please help. The gurus in the house. Everybody. Kindly help me .

Please am using my dad's account, but I had to replace my birth certificate because the old one had my first name spelt wrongly.
Will it suffice?

Good afternoon house.....Please I need advise on address in Uk to use for my TB test....Will it be fine to state UWE address even though I plan to live somewhere outside the University? I am yet to get an accommodation and the one from school is quite expensive

I suppose to have dropped my visa testimony by my phone was faulty.
God finally did it for me after the whole struggle and worry, I got my study visa last month June to the glory of God.
@justwise and every other gurus helping out in this group, I say thank you and God bless you richly.

All thanks to God who showed himself merciful and made all my fears groundless.
He literally made everything seamless and my fears about Oanda rising inordinately did not come to pass.

Kai! I was checking Oanda like 10 times per day. Instead of rising, the rate in Naira even decreased during the 28 days.

After 3 years of Canada waka, on 445 till the crs go up and refuse to go down lol. Ielts sef will expire next month. I don learn French sef, na to write Tef remain.
Several master applications to 4 universities in Canada ( and dey chop my application fee lol) no admission. Finally as the last school said No in April, my eye clear lol, I decided to face UK.
And UK don land.

Thank you to everyone on this space, some of who I emailed with one or two questions, everyone who supports us here one way or the other, everyone who posts and answers questions, I appreciate all of you .
We will all celebrate. For everyone waiting, I can't wait to celebrate with you all too.

Application date June 2nd (Standard)
Biometrics June 4th

On the 15th working day, i got a mail that my application wasn't straight forward so they needed more time to make a decision

July 2nd, Application Transferred to VAC
July 2nd, Travel Documents ready for collection.

Collected the passport today with my VISA intact.

1 US visa refusal (tourist)
1 SA visa refusal (tourist)

It wasn't an easy journey especially after getting the non-straight forward mail. I read so many articles about non straight forward mails and how it takes 8 - 12 weeks to get a response from the UKVI.I prayed asked God for a quick response, and i got my collection mail just after 5 working days.

To all those waiting for unconditional offer, CAS, TB Test, Biometrics and VISA, I pray everything will work out for your good in Jesus name.

Melahou:


Okay thank you.
But can I pay for IHS now and start the visa application process even though it's not up to 28days for my POF elapse.

cousin85:
Please where you able to switch from TLS Ikeja to TLS V.I?

Melahou:

Josh121:

wolewole200:
