Visa Alert!!!

Nobody but God and all good people here assisting with great response. Journey started oct with Oxford Brooke’s, denied me CAS after deposit because of my previous refusal.

Applied to Uni of Northampton, paid deposit in March via Black market and got CAS late April.

Biometric : May 11
NSF : June 7 requesting my Birth certificate because I used my mom Bank statement. Then one Uncle here that think he works with UKVI said I will be refused if I provide birth certificate that wasn’t signed by Deputy registrar or if I try to apply for new Birth certificate because I couldn't find the old one. I just ignored and stayed positive because it’s not every advise here you have to listen to. Well God never fails, I went to local government that my birth was registered and they gave me a new one. I guess UKVI have their way of verifying authenticity of documents wether it’s signed by deputy general or not.

Sent paid email June 17th
Decision made response
Transferred to VAC June 21
Collection mail June 22

For those waiting for Admission, Form A debit, CAS and Visa application decision. It will surely end with praise for y’all.

God bless you all.

Cheers.

Amen. We shall All testify on this thread by God's grace.

Congratulations!!!

but i heard dependant cannot go for biometrics before the main applicant... dont know how true sha

As long as the main applicant has a date regardless of how far away it is from the dependents, they can all go in together on the date of his dependents. I hear the Main Applicany May have to pay up to N42k though.

Davidandgo, I don't know how to reach you... I have been trying to book since yesterday but it's not going... I have been awake trying it even midnight no show.....

This was my case a few days ago. From what I gathered, they are deliberating limiting the appointment date for students hence the difficulty in getting a date. My advise is that you keep trying and be persistent. If you have dependents, book their first while you book yours for a later date.

Goodluck!

Guys when is the best time to search for appointment in tls ikeja. I can't get a date date my wife and I chose flexi.

Book the earliest date you can for her - try premium lounge and book the earliest date you can find for yourself. You can both go in at the same time ( most likely on the date you book for your wife as hers would probably be earlier than yours).

Greetings y'all.

Please I need suggestions on how to make visa & IHS payments for a family of 5.

I have downloaded and used the batter $ card but for small payments & a few folks here had shared the problems they had with them.

How reliable is it if I open a domiciliary account, get a card and use for this?

Can I get someone in the UK to help with the payment?

What other means can I use?

Thanks

Get a GTB Dom account, fund and pay with your card…

Justwise and co... Please I need Ur suggestions.

My school of choice , Croydon college is requesting for requesting for POF before a pre-assessment interview then make deposit payment before CAS.

Do I need to continue with the POF after sending them a copy or hold on till I get the CAS.

If the CAS is issued thesame month I stop the POF CAS I continue it even though there will be gap for future reference.

Please don’t do it. Leave the funds in your account till you get the visa.

I am facing a strange problem in the dependent application form when I go to pay the IHS fees, It asks for the main applicant visa expiry date. but as the main applicant also applying together-with, it's not possible to provide visa

Use the admission end date on your CAS as the visa expiry date.

Are you using VI, you should be able to do walk-in?
Just prepare the MA to do walk-in on the 30th, and if they do not allow, then wait for 20th of July

It’s TLS Ikeja.

We finally found a date! 20th of July for MA while ours is 30th of June… we only paid for Premium lounge for ours while we paid assisted service for the main applicant.

Question is, will they let him come in when I and the kids go for our biometrics?
Travel / Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Davidandgo: 9:37pm On Jun 20, 2022
I may be wrong but it seems this appointment date issues is for students. It appears they are deliberately making it difficult for students to book on the TLS website.

Does anyone know if this true and what is the workaround especially since the dependents have their appointment booking?

The earliest available date on the website is Juky 19th and it still wouldn’t let you book that date.

I’ve just logged in again, these are the options I have and Premium Lounge isn’t there.

One thing I’m however uncertain of is if I’d declined premium lounge for this applicant or not. If I have is there a way to add it back?

[quote author=duchess90 post=113985655]Hello

Premium lounge or Flexi appointment?

They are 2different services.

Have you tried to add the flex request after selecting either the assisted or self service?

Try and select a date and see if you can add flex appointment once you have done so

I have but the time slots aren’t opening. This website makes me feel uneducated yet I was able to book for 3 of us yesterday.

Let me switch to a different browser again

As a background, this is what I saw when I was able to book yesterday. It keeps preventing me from booking Premium Lounge for the MA because it’s not listed as a service offered on his profile.

I’m back again. This TLS is becoming much more of a hassle than I could have ever imagined. I’ve booked for I and the kids and yet to book for the MA. The time slots aren’t opening and I’m at my wits end at the moment.

Does anyone have a hack for TLS Ikeja? Do they accept Walk ins? Any information will be most appreciated.

This is all I see each time I attempt to book. The time slots aren’t showing for any of the dates

Thank you.

@Davidandgo please i'm stuck at this stage which platform can i get dollar card to pay for my Visa and IHS fee

Are you sure the end date on your CAS is 31st of October? In any case, it’s still 13 months or less so if you answered yes, you ought to pay $894.73. I paid for my daughter today and it was still $894.73

If you don’t have a GTB Dollar Card ( or Dom account from any Nigerian Bank), I suggest you reach out to your friends and family who do and are willing to let you pay the dollars into their account while they help you pay online.

It’s such a very tricky question! We have initially selected yes as well before the school appointed agent changed it to No. my advise is that you either cancel of you can or speak with your school agent. For your sake, I truly hope it’s not a make or mar question.

Ok. Thanks a lot for the advice. Do you know if Aston also faces issues with CAS issuance. Some of the schools that I have been offered admission take months to issue CAS. This is very discouraging for me. But Aston sent CAS shield the following day they sent the offer letter which makes me optimistic about it.

Because I went via the online route, I don’t know much about their CAS process. But you can speak with this admissions officer (Tina Banerjee) who was most helpful with my admission back in 2020.

No they did not request. I just wanted to be sure since the norm is for school's to request it. I will check the precas as you have suggested. I would love to go there but the funds is the major issue. Although I have a particular scholarship in mind but I'm not sure I will get it.

Please be open minded and go for the scholarship while you consider less expensive schools as your back up plan.
