You can book now. The official rule for F1-visa applicants on ER application is 3- months prior to your resumption, and what apply to f1 also apply to f2.

● Form-I20 is all an F1-visa applicant needed to upload on ER application , so same also applies to you as f2. You may however merge your work-leave letter to it. 👍

Thank you for your guidance. The expedition has been approved

When you are in need of an urgent response and no one is forthcoming the best thing for you to do is to go back to the beginning or middle of this thread and you would have seen where this particular topic is treated successfully.

The normal thing to do in order to introduce yourself to the embassy as an incoming interviewee is to pick any date you see first. After this you will have five times (5x) of grace to reschedule the fist pick in order to match with your intended date. If that did not work eventually , then you can use the last option of applying for Emergency Appointment.

Without you picking a date first you won't be able to see any of those options, you will be as good as someone who have not even purchase visa fee.

Thank you for your help.
One more question please 🙏🏽

How close to intended date of arrival before one can book the emergency appointment? Also considering that I’m F2, is the proof of leave of absence from place of work enough to show why I neeed to book the emergency appointment?

Hello everyone, trying to book visa date and I’m seeing August 2026 for Lagos. Do I book it first while I wait for a nearer date? Or just hold on. I want 2025 date for me and my daughter

I need an answer please

So I had my interview in Abuja and my God! the rejection was crazy (I thought it would be different from Lagos)

I had been denied visa before twice in Lagos

What changed now that I can say for myself is I had funding but you know I was still scared definitely because of the previous experiences.

Can anyone please Help me with Wes processing time?

olabanji88:
how do you know if transcript was received

your account dashboard on WES platform will change to “we are processing a new document “

Mizjemie25:
Please does this mean Wes has seen my documents?

My school sent my transcript via etx.ng to Wes. Got an email from etx that my transcript has been sent.. didn’t get any email from Wes confirming receipt of it.. should I be worried? It’s been two weeks now.. when are supposed to send for verification?

How long did it take for your account status to change from “ We are processing a new package or document for your application” to this current status you’re in?

ECA takes about 35 business days

Davsidoo:
Thank you for the response. So this means I don’t need to call them to know when the next stage would be.

Can I please reach you on whatsap?

anamo:
Lemme share my timeline with you— however when I did it, I was in the United States that time and I could actually call them directly to know how far..

Paid and submitted on June 8th, and it was delivered to my address on July 10 — that’s around 1 month

Thank you for the response. So this means I don’t need to call them to know when the next stage would be.

Hi Guys,

For those that have done WES evaluation, how long does it take to pass this stage?

I have gained admission to the department in the school. However, I need to get my Wes evaluation done for the Graduate school to admit me before I can get my i20

Hello house, how long does this status last before it moves to the next stage?

Also, is it at the stage the 7 business days processing start? Or after

University of Derby whatsapp group please?

De play just de play, when you get here and wait for months to get the surviving job your eyes go clear.

Are you in uk?

dduchess90:
Hello

Please whatever you do, don't involve yourself in what people are doing by getting a Dependant and lieing that they are married.

Your dependant should be your spouse genuinely married and not for the purpose of obtaining a visa.

UK will always be there, take your time and save/request family support etc.

You don't want to run helter skelter for an issue that could be avoided with proper planning

Cheers

Thanks man.

Women 😂😂😂😂

I perfectly understand everyone’s point..

What I take home is that I should be able to afford my tuition fee without totally depending on part time job cos the hustle no easy.

Thank you so much

sandra50:
Are you going alone?don't you have a dependant?no you wouldn't meet up..getting a job alone as student will be very difficult.if you have a wife,she is the one that would have found a job easily without any stress and helped you.my cousin that went since December hasn't found a job yet.go with a dependant that can help you.lets say you don't get a job for 5 months how then will you cope?it's your dependant that would be working because as a student employers don't like to employ people that still study..take my advice so you don't get stranded there.im also applying but I'm going to do that with a dependant.

Thank you so much for this but I’m single man 😂😂

Me myself and I bro

Mehn, i know I’ll feel it but I know I can survive it man. I’m still trying to raise more money here before I eventually leave.

At least If tuition no be problem again, survival for one year go definitely dey easier right?

Flamezcadio:
-Hi, a friend of my currently schools there and from our discussions, the payment schedule is not as strict as you have on the website. They have more flexible plans you can explore when you join in.

P.S: Let other core students give you their own opinion on this to be super sure.

Thank you so much

Hello guys,

The tuition fee in Derby is 14,900

The first deposit is 3000

I have 6m, it is going to be enough to take me from here to Derby with accommodation based on my calculations.

But my fear now is resumption is September

50% of the remaining tuition must be paid by OCT 1, 2023 and the rest 50% must be paid by January 1, 2024

My question now is, can I raise this funds over there with part time jobs based on these deadlines?

Getting 4950 by oct and another 4950 by January is really no joke

I don't want to get to the UK and get stranded and yet, I am so convinced that I need to go to the uk.

My course is DS btw so I believe getting a good paid job after school would not be an issue.

Please give me your advise Nairalanders

Thank you so much

Now we are currently in $100 profit for the week. At the end of today, the total profits will be shared into two. 50/50.

I’ll let you know when I withdraw

Have a lovely sleep guys.
Pls if you have any question. You can ask here for others to read or reach me on WhatsApp (0 8 0 3 8 8 5 9 5 0 5)

It does not cost me a thing to keep you guys updated on how it is going and I will keep doing that.

I just thought someone can be out there as well with some amounts of money and just confused on how to grow the money.

Business is good but Business takes time but with this, once you start earning weekly, it’s easy to venture to other kind of physical business

WHAT ARE THE RISKS INVOLVED?

Nothing is 100% assured but SINCE I STARTED, THERE HAS BEEN NO REGRETS AND I KEEP THANKING GOD FOR THE INFORMATION AND OPPORTUNITY. That’s all I can say.
