harrrry: The vaccine is free, i do know it landed in Abuja, not sure if they have started giving shots in lagos. You best bet would be to visit any vaccination center, they would surely know where it’s available |

solalal36: Dear Sir, knowledge in modern day travel is invaluable. If you know your onions properly, you dont have to pay anyone. Most immigration officers at the airport always prey on naivety. You have your permit to travel(visa), you are not carrying contarabands, you paid your full tickets then why are you worried? A lot of people dont even know what items they are allowed to travel with, and thats where your problems would start. Because they would exploit your ignorance, Nigeria is Nigeria and everyone is hungry and trying to hustle, if you allow them to extort you, they would extort you to the fullest. Ignorance is expensive, you cant afford it. If you equip yourself well with the right info, you would travel without paying one Naira. The Airline you are using is already charging you passenger service fee, you just have to show up and travel. Dont let anyone exploit you. I will try and do a travel checklist soon enough, hopefully I have the time . 19 Likes 1 Share |

JahMan1: If you got vaccinated in Nigeria, you would have been issued a Vaccine card with biometric strip on it, usually located at the bottom right of the card. If you have a smart phone, open your camera and attempt to take a pic of that biometric strip, it would automatically give you a link ,click on that link and it would redirect you to your details and vaccination history. That history contains your full name, your vaccination ID,how many doses you took, the date you took it, the type of vaccine, the batch No,and your date of birth . It is authenticated and accepted as Proof. There is nothing to beat, it is accepted for travel,just equip yourself with the right information. 8 Likes 2 Shares |

paddedbabe: Your child should be able to travel with her US passport but there are underlying issues that might pose a hindrance. For one DHL won’t carry international passport across border. The dependant visa would usually be valid for the specified time limit on the visa on it, assuming it’s 3 months then within that period the child has to cross the border with it . What if she is not able to do it within three months? If your ask me, if you are really pressed to travel , I would suggest the dad stays with her and wait for the passport while you travel with the others, then they can join later. You should also check with DHL, I tried to send a passport sometime in 2009 and that’s when I was told they don’t carry international passport across borders. They would only carry within any country My opinion |

Newwoman: The rules have changed a bit, New set of rules would start tomorrow . Your kids below 14 would not be required to take a pre departure test from Tomorrow and would only have to pay for day 2 test, with no quarantine mandate as well. For the Parents, you would need to have been fully vaccinated with your second shot taken at least 14 days before your travel date to be qualify for same . https://www.gov.uk/guidance/travel-to-england-from-another-country-during-coronavirus-covid-19

Patnuel2015: You again, lol. I asked you you post your reference yesterday but you couldn’t. I am certain you actually understand the mandate but you one of those that find it difficult to admit errors. What Qatar posted on their site is for the four categories of vaccination class the Uk recognizes for now, 1. NHS {UK} 2.CDC {US} 3. EU digital certificates {EU} 4. The listed countries vaccine certificates Nigeria doesn’t get on that list till Monday. The new updates that includes Nigeria takes effect from Monday 11th of October. If your stubbornness propels you enough then travel to uk before monday and don’t do a test or book day 2 and 8. Travelers leaving today are still required to do same till monday. Go to the Uk government website for genuine info Sir. Please stop dissipating wrong info, you will eventually mislead someone traveling between now and monday and make them miss their flight. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Kj40: Affordable is relative, there is no set price and on that list you would find test kit of £600 and also as low £15. some are expensive because its provider supervised at your home, meaning they come to your place to take the test.(I see absolutely no reason for this option), while Some low end kits are swabs taking on site. Now you cant literally choose that because you should be isolating, but if you find a provider very close to your isolation site, then perhaps you can and I mean walking distance. A couple of people have chosen that option . Unfortunately the Nigerian bank cards are becoming absolutely useless, but if you choose a kit below £50, you can try the card, otherwise a Dom assisted card might be your best option. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Kj40: There are a number of test providers sprawled across the UK, once you know where you would be isolation ,its best to pick a provider close to your geographic location to facilitate ease of delivery on time. Follow the link attached, select the self swab at home option and fill in your geographic location, you should get different hits and then select which ever tickles your fancy. https://www.find-travel-test-provider.service.gov.uk/test-type/amber 3 Likes 1 Share |

Patnuel2015: The process is quite simple you say?I am not sure you read the attached link properly, Nigeria is not on the list and travellers from Nigeria have to follow rules for people who do not qualify as fully vaccinated. Please go an read and digest again They only recognise 1. NHS COVID Pass .(UK) 2. EU Digital Covid certificate (EU) 3.Center for Disease Control and Prevention vaccination Card (US) 4. Vaccine Certificates of countries listed on the site. Again Nigeria is not listed ,and its quite simple to understand. 4 Likes

Adesquare6666: We all need to careful where you source information from, always make sure you use available tools and double check info even if it’s coming from people you might consider learned, exposed or in Nairaland terms “ guru” always do your due deligence. Fact checking would save your money The dependent visa is set up so students can bring their families over to the UK legally, so if they expect you to bring your family then they obviously know the implications. In the early stages of this platform, we have had situations where a student applied alone without her dependant husband and was refused because she didn’t have a valid reason for why her husband wasn’t traveling with her. In the same vein some have applied without spouse and got the visa, there is absolutely no secret to it, if your intentions are straight forward and you have all your funds then apply with all your family, it is not illegal and if you ask me, your chances are higher applying together. Regarding POF, go read page one with a pen and paper or a calculator, all your answers are in there and well tabled out by the facilitator of the thread. The knowledge in there is invaluable. Back to due diligence, if you open your web browser and type in “ how much do I need for a family of five for ukvi student and dependent visa “ you would be overwhelmed with information, and part of the hits you would get would also redirect you to same Nairaland. And then, the ultimate resource is the ukvi website, every single information regarding this process is in there. Even when you get info you don’t need at the moment, you can still learn and help someone with the same info in future. This venture is very expensive, and some only have one chance at it, you can’t afford to be swallowing second hand information. 10 Likes 1 Share |

Thats what I did, you dont have to pay for it, just make sure to cancel the bookings before the dates, i think usually they would charge within the week of arrival . Some people used the school address as well. You also have the option of your current location. |

whyteLayorn1: All dependants visa have a restriction on it, what was on your wife's vignette is " Restricted work No Sportperson No Public funds",which means the nature of the restriction is No Sportsperson related work and cant use public funds...No restriction on time, she can work full time. What you are focusing on is the first two words "Restricted work", but its a full sentence and you must read together. 5 Likes |

whyteLayorn1: Airlines have different policies for travel, be sure to check the specific policy of travel of the particular Airline you may want to choose.Below is Virgin Atlantic travel policy . Above all and regardless of the Airline you choose, you must get a FIT TO FLY from her doctor, the FTF must state how far gone she is and her estimated due date. As long as you haven’t experienced any complications during your pregnancy, you can fly until your 28th week without needing to tell us. Beyond the 28th week, you’ll need to take note of the guidelines below. Single pregnancy If you're expecting one baby and want to travel between your 28th and 36th weeks, we’ll need you to travel with a certificate from your doctor. The certificate should state that you have had no complications and your estimated delivery date. We don’t need to see this in advance, but it might be asked for at the airport or onboard. Travel may be delayed or denied if you do not have this if asked. It's important to remember to include your return travel within these dates. After your 36th week, you mustn't fly unless there are mitigating circumstances - which you can find listed below. Multiple pregnancy If you're expecting more than one baby and want to travel between your 28th and 32nd weeks, again you'll need to travel with a doctor's certificate stating you've had no complications and your estimated delivery date. Travel may be delayed or denied if you don't have your certificate available if asked. You mustn't fly after the end of your 32nd week. Please do remember to include your return travel date in this time frame.

A while back in June, if my memory serves me correctly! quite a number of individuals came here asking questions about single ladies who are applying alone for student visa. One guy in particular was asking the single ladies to contact him privately for further details ,my guess back then was marriage arrangement for visa purposes. Fast forward, and suddenly alot of individuals are having trouble with proving their marriage status to ukvi ,seems like people that are not genuinely married have been sending in application hence the scrutiny to marriage applications. The flip side of this, is that both genuine and fake marriages would be giving the same treatment thus making it frustrating for the genuine applicants. I honestly hope people dont mess up this process through bad behaviour, ukvi would be forced to change some rules if people persist with this type of bad behaviour. 17 Likes 1 Share |
