UKVI will accept money that is frozen in a certificate of deposit. However the certificate of deposit must prove that the money has already been held for 28 days.

@Dumebi213 @Bourne007 @scobyy2007 @AAO7 and other gurus in the house my TB test appointment is on Thursday but I was unable to book for my wife because her passport was not ready when I booked mine, now what are the chances of her getting her test done on same day or I just do manual booking for her if i go ahead and make payment on her behalf?

Secondly I'm being sponsored by my mother and she has enough funds to cover for both if us but it is in a fixed deposit account. Will that suffice for POF?

Thirdly I'm going to Ulster University Birmingham campus as I've been waiting for UCB to get back and I intend to pay deposit to Ulster this Friday, how's their pre CAS interview like and how long before they issue CAS.

Thanks all

It doesn't matter

Preshyi:
Please does it matter if I do the NCDC test in Lagos and travel from Abuja?

(I think) He means NCDC approved test centers. Don't mix 'approved' with 'recognised' test centers. About 3 months ago, airport officials did not allow a lady board BA flight because she did not use one of the approved centers.

Whether that's changed, I don't know

elleven45:
Which one is NCDC test again kwanu, is it different from the normal covid test? If it’s normal covid test then it doesn’t matter where you take it so far it’s at a recognized center

If you look few pages back, a similar question was asked. You can apply in Dubai with your naija account as long as you meet all the requirements and can show you have the right to reside there.

marvelife:
I'm living in dubai currently, and I don't use dubai account I save my money directly to Nigeria account,
Because of this, do I need to exit the country for interview when it's time or do you think I can still use my 9ja statement of account in UK embassy here....

I'm sponsoring myself
A dude told me recently he doubt if UK allowed self sponsorship
But I want to affirm such notion here I know I'm in the right place with people full of ideas

Although, have made some searches but yet first hand info. Here is better sometimes than Google
Please what are your suggested schools where its easy for one to get side job too as a student

Thanks for your response in advance

If University declines your application, school rep no fit 'manipulate' anything o. Best you apply for January or look for another school

The number of applications this September na die

Glowing1:
Hertfordshire university just declines my application this morning, after waiting for 3weeks, they said they've received too many applications n can't offer me a place. Please if anyone here has a school rep I can contact personally, that would hasten d process for sept intake 2021 pls kindly email me. I would appreciate

PBS visa is completely different to tourist/visitors visa. Whether you use your papa or your own o, it wouldn't make any difference as long as you meet up with the requirements.

Netbrina:
Please @justwise or anyone who can should advice me how I can explain the 2 tourist visa refusal to UK (these are the only refusal I have 4 years ago) in my student visa application? Should I use my father's account as POF because of this?
Reasons were mainly that I don't have sufficient fund for the travel and that my salary does not corrolate with the fund I have in my account and that they are not sure I will return.

Some people self

scobyy2007:
oga people have different reasons why they want this sorted asap. if they have the resources why? you might have the time but some people have private reasons why they dont want to delay.

It's standard for all PBS Dependant visas

ayas123456789:
It's is stated in the Vignette (visa sticker) for a dependent partner( dependant restricted work, no sportsperson and no public funds) is these anything to worry about? If yes how do we go about it. Thanks guys

Self is fine as I recently did one. Supervised may mean you have to then go to the site

Preshyi:
Thanks but do I choose self or supervised swab?

You will find the rates in here https://www.find-travel-test-provider.service.gov.uk/test-type/amber

Preshyi:
Please guys, what's the best and most affordable option for the Day 2 and Day 8 covid test?

TB test should be fine. It's visa process you need min 6 months

Petite22:
Good afternoon people, my International passport is less than six months valid so I applied for renewal last month but it's not out yet.
Can I use the old passport to book for TB Test? Since it's still valid , hope it won't lose a problem during the visa application stage? Or I should wait for the new one to book? Thank you

And this advise is meant to apply to everyone?

Domistic:
I have not been to Uk but from what I can gather from people who are there, it is better for the main applicant to go first. Thereafter after getting your BRP and settling down, the other family members can join. If not, no matter the kind of money you take to Uk, it will finish within a week and you will be stranded. Let the main person go first, settle down, get a good accommodation first. This is my best advice.

Student visa is point based and as long as you meet up with the requirements, you are good. Landed properties are unnecessary (No harm in submitting o if you want to but not needed). As for family pictures, it's more of showing that you're in a genuine and subsisting relationship (nothing to do with home ties).

Justice2700:
Good day @justwise and other gurus in the house, Biko I hope I get a response.
My husband and I have had previous visa denials, which we declared and on my part as the main applicant (my husband is the dependant) the reason for my denial to the US (student visa) and schegen zone(tourist) was lack of documentation to show ties to my country. So for this Uk student visa I have decided to add documentation eg landed properties and family pictures to show ties to home. I just want to be sure it’s the right thing to do and won’t cause me more harm in my application. Please anyone that understands the situation can respond to me. Thank you

Unless you are using your parents accounts, international passport is enough. I don't think you have to submit birth certificate.

If you a specifically asked to submit, affidavit should be okay

theeladee:
Hi guy, please I have a question.

There’s was a mistake in my name on my certificate, instead of Oluwatobiloba the imprinted Oluwatobilola, just a letter difference and every other thins right. Should I get an affidavit to support it or just submit my certificate like that?

I have no idea o. Hearing these for the first time self. Please explore the 2 for us na and feedback so we can plan

fatima04:
Lol, thanks. I checked this out and the recurrent is Pontis and Haven parks..any idea which is better. Or just all the same

Sure.. As long as you have a permit to reside in the UK with usually min 3 months but worth checking their website

Baztardmods:
Hello, Please can I apply for Canada study visa from UK as a student

It can help narrow down where you want to vida loca to
https://www.dayoutwiththekids.co.uk/

fatima04:
Right now we are still la vida loca , not graduated to international yet. Noted for future sha

Na to check and avoid them. The question was mainly about transit visa so even when they turn green, it wouldn't be required

Dumebi213:
yh, but best be safe though, the cheap African countries like Egypt and Kenya air are on the red list

God will provide for us

There is absolutely no issue using maiden name. Explanation not required except to show the necessary ID docs for verification

K4daniel:
Wife maiden name bawooo, how? i believe the best is to put the money in the account which bears her full name same as her international passport. It makes things easy without much explanation. (My opinion though)

The more I explore these apps, the more I get impressed. Yesterday I found Starling E-certifies their statements with a verifiable digital stamp. Saves a trip down those traditional banks.

Lexusgs430:
This fintech banks have features, this grandpa erico2k2 banks, are only just dreaming about........

- Virtual cards (what a brilliant idea)
- No useless building on the high street
- Call the bank with your registered number, if that call goes unanswered, they would send you a feedback message
- Pots organisation structure
- Ability to buy shares, cryptos, commodities, within fintechs exchange
- Higher interest rates payments (if you are risk aversed).......
- Too many to mention, make erico2k2 no go vex........

I'm afraid 'sister' doesn't fall under the category of Dependants

Joyishbae:
@ justwise or anybody please respond.
I know something like this must av bn answered in d past but scanning Tru almost 590 pages is exhausting... Please

@bolded is unnecessary. Meeting up with POF with at least 28 days is enough

Melahou:
Gurus in the house please I need your candid advice.
We are a family of 4 while my wife is the Applicant.
I have already transfered all the required funds from my account to my wife’s account while we await for the 28day POF to clock.

But my Agent is requesting that I prepare a Sponsorship Letter stating that I am sponsoring my wife simply because I moved the funds from my account to hers.

Please what is the implication for this?

@scobyy2007
@justwise

So true .. . But this applies to stopping over in EU countries as UK don Brexit

This shouldn't apply to African or Middle Eastearn countries

naijatisumi:
Guys are true is this ?


Dear guys..

If you're coming in to uk this month or next month, don't board any other flight except BA or VIRGIN ATLANTIC.

That is the only option for students.

You'll not be allow to enter uk if you board a different flight except you have a transit visa.

#copied

Just curious... What system do you think he's beating?

jtech17:
Badt guy... hmmm I'm really learning oo... cos man gat to learn how to beat d system else one will just toil toilfully like toilet roll ... e no go saveup ANYFIN .. in British accent

Hahaha .. You are now freakying your account in the modern way

Lexusgs430:
Nope...... I don't have any traditional UK bank account .......

You can either request info from UKVI (https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/requests-for-personal-data-uk-visas-and-immigration/request-personal-information-held-by-uk-visas-and-immigration) or give consent to the uni to obtain the info they need.

If refusal no be biggie, ask uni you are happy to give consent. If you however prefer to have a copy, go for the former

cdieli:
Good Morning,
UWS is asking me for a copy of my UK visa refusal in 2012 before they can send me my CAS. Its so unfortunate that I can't lay my hands on the document any longer. Who has experienced this before and what should be my reply.

The latter... Just the first year as stated on CAS

Demmy2021:
Hello House,

Please I need clarification:

If my course is two years program, do I need to have POF for the two years? Or just for the first year as stated on my CAS

Also for maintenance fee, do I need for two years or just the first year?

Thank you.

This is a clearer info. You surely can use any bank from anywhere in the world

Rhitar19:
I think the last part of your statement is wrong. You CAN’T apply with ANY valid bank account from anywhere in the world. Check the Uk government website concerning this. You can’t use a bank account from another country that is NOT REGULATED by the financial regulatory body in the country you are applying from

23kg each is standard practice

rabola1:
When packing, abeg must d bags be 23kg each or one bag for 46kg is okay, thanks

I am confused myself as to why you are confused. And you never even start assignments of 2000/5000 words LOL.

I personally have used naira account when I applied from another EU country.

The rules are there for everyone to read and they are straightforward and simple as you can see clearly you are exempted if you decide to apply in naija. The attach is one of my applicants who returned to apply without doing TB and there was no issues whatsoever.

Un-confuse yourself and decide on what to do. All the best

Oma500:
Please has anyone here used bank statement from another country to apply in another for a UK visa.. just hearing no available dates for TB in Nigeria omg I AM CONFUSED ��‍♂️. Do I really need to do the TB test since I will be coming back just to applying.. I will not even stay up to 6months according to the site.. please if anyone have experience on this area please please help me out here

Sure you can extend your student visa or switch to a different category as long as you meet the requirements

boblabob:
Please can someone extend stay in the uk after m.sc in the uk?

As long as it's regulated by the CBN and UKVI can verify your details with the bank.

akinezzy:
Thanks,I am skeptical because there is just one physical branch in VI.
