Not an issue.

Not sure why you assume this will be an issue.

Redef:
Hello everyone,
Please I hope there will be no issue if two siblings apply to the same school in uk for master’s using the parent’s statement for both admission and visa.
Or is it better they apply to different schools and use different bank statements?
The parent is the sponsor for both of them.
Thank you for responding.

You can apply 6 months to course start date. Whether you wanna use Standard, Priority or Super is up to you really

Another bank statement meeting the requirements is fine

nicerichard05:
So house, I will be applying for my visa next week. My start date is 24th May 2021, I am also planning on using PRIORITY, is it too early to use priority, would dat be a problem..

Also, should I print another bank statment for visa application as the one I used for cas was 1.2.2021 to 1.3.2021, since I would be applying on the 20.3.2021.

Thanks for your response

It will be a plus (no harm in uploading) but optional as financial evidence usually covers this.

Hello Gurus in the house, kindly help me out on this please.

Hello guys,

Pls is the answer to this question YES or NO. It’s kind confusing because I haven’t provided English evidence for a previous application. Though submitted WAEC alongside letter of English from my school

Yes it was never the case before Brexit. Transit visas are now required when stopping over in any EU country (unfortunately)

Please does a visitor from Nigeria need a transit visa when going through any of the EU countries? This wasn't the case before Brexit.

It's definite. They know it will be a loophole to long residence if given more than once. I will share the link once I find it


LagosismyHome:
This was the case previously......however some rules do change up and down. Is this definite that it the same for this PSW or this is an assumption based on the previous PSW

Tier 1 and tier 5 are possible options as well

The guidelines doesn't state such. You only get it once in a lifetime cheesy

If you wanna go thru the route you suggested by just reading book, just kúkú do bachelors, masters then PhD grin

If I recall, Bachelors/masters is 2 years while PhD is 3 years PSW

Then she stays longer and be questioned in the next application??

I always make my intention clear on application form and MIL sometimes spends 6 months on the dot. (maybe 2 or 3 days less cheesy )

Oggg:
pls dnt write 5 months stay in your invitation letter, worse still if it is the 1st time she is applying for a UK visit visa. U will ruin her chances. Put a lesser duration for the visa application. When u get the visa, u can change ur plans

You can apply 6 months to start date

"When you can travel to the UK
You can arrive in the UK before your course starts. This can be either:

up to 1 week before, if your course lasts 6 months or less
up to 1 month before, if your course lasts more than 6 months"

For 10 year long residence ILR, it does count.

HollyMadison:
The 2 years post-study doesn’t count towards ILR. Just try and get work/ Tier 2 visa, or this new global talent visa.
Travel › Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 5 by Bourne007(m): 4:01pm On Mar 07, 2021
I usually advise students go for 2 years for those interested. In the event that you do not get a placement, uni will then ask you to do your project early and you go still dey entitled to PSW anyways


wizzy2021:
Do you think the one year option is better? I was actually thinking of 2 years because of the money involved. I already have the real industry experience as I have been working in that field for 7 years now. But the 2 years is also as a result of pushing everything to 4 years and hopefully pushing towards 10y year's Long stay for ILR.

Getting a ban in Canada doesn't technically mean you are banned from trying UK.
I can't speak of the other countries listed as I do not know how they operate but as long as you are truthful on your UK student visa application about previous immigration history (that's if you intend to apply) and meet the requirements. Ee worse pass them go grill you with questions.

All the best


Krissy01:
Hi guys I need your honest opinion on this, like put yourself in my shoes and tell me what you would do. ok so I started this studying abroad journey back in 2019 I was fresh out of high school and didn't plan on schooling in Nigeria,

Canada has always been the only country on my mind. So I apply to one school in Canada, university of Manitoba, Winnipeg I was granted admission in November 2019 and applied for visa December of that same year, my decision envelope came and I was denied because of insufficient fund not because I didn't have the money the account I used wasn't funded.
so we funded the account and applied again and I forgot to add am not the only one going it's me and my sister, and when I mean wasn't funded the money there wasn't enough for two people. So we funded the account and applied again in February 2020 and yes we we're using an agent so I didn't get any response from the embassy till October when only passport was returned without it being stamped and a little note which says Decision making is still in progress, final decision not taken I found that weird but since they gave a reasons I kept on waiting, sending emails and webforms till February when I reached out to my agent and he said he got a mail from IRCC and he needed to see us privately and I was like wondering what went wrong so we met up with him only to tell me I've been banned from Canada for 5years for misrepresentation. Turns out IRCC already sent him an email since October to respond to clear their suspicion about misrepresentation and my agent didn't respond to them neither did he let us know about it until he was arrested, This was the same for my sister.
I posted that on nairaland asking for you guys help and so on, i was told to avoid these countries:US UK Australia and New Zealand because they share the same database with Canada. Now I've searched for countries and I've come to the decision that Germany was ok for both me and my sister I've even picked two schools already and yes I'm going for a Bachelors degree and I plan to study anything relating to business, it could be marketing, business admin.,management e.t.c.

So now I've spent 2yrs at home already and all my classmate are in school and I don't want to waste this year again on a country that would waste my time and money then not grant me visa and with what am seeing they said booking Appointment date with Germany is like asking the Nigerian government to pass a death sentence bill for (financial) corruption which is a first red flag for me like I don't have have another year to waste I want my application to move smoothly.
my question is do you have any know country that I could try I mean put yourself in my shoes and tell Me what you would do? At this point I'm confused and No schooling in Nigeria is not an option neither is schooling in Ukraine Cyprus or turkey so pls I need as much opinions as I can get. I also forgot to add that my mom is my only sponsor and I'm the only one running my application myself

Happy New Month

Can a family member that lives outside the country help a self Sponsored student to pay part payment of the tuition fee ? And hope they wont be any issue.

Will previous Visa denial affect the chances of getting Visa approval from the Embassy.

Well the guidelines say anyone refused before shouldn't use priority/super. They can but at their own risk

Not sure why you are confused as you stand zero chance of winning.

This is exactly the reason why build accounts are inadvisable as repeatedly said by justwise on this same thread.



Sherynna:
Ok.. These are the details.

He applied with his dependants.

He had more than the required balance in his account for about 36 days.

Did biometrics 18th January

Took out all the funds after 36days

But application was still with UKVI

Got interviewed on 24th Feb

Got a refusal mail because their investigation shows the funds have left the account.

Now someone is suggesting he goes for Admin review... We are confused now and don't know what to do...

This is your choice really. It's all about meeting up with the requirements and money needed. They only interview main applicants esp if application is not straightforward. Any refusal doesn't affect as long as it's declared.

Hello House, Am new here. We family of 3 are about to apply for UK student visa next week, our agent said we should apply together I want to know your advice if it's better to apply separately.. Also is there going to be an interview and if yes is it just the primary applicant or all of us that will attend the interview?
Lastly will an Australian refusal be na issue? My agen said it won't.
