Hello

1. Yes

2. Yes

3. Not required if you have lived in the UAE for the past 6months and will be applying from there, you must present an evidence of a valid permit to live in the UAE to justify this exemption

If you don't have the evidence please get a TB test done


Cheers

Hello everyone,

I am a resident here in Dubai, UAE. I plan to submit my UK student visa application from here but after my research, I have only gotten more confused. So here are some questions I have. Don't know if these questions have been answered in a previous post, please be kind to answer if you have the information (It would be very helpful)

1. Do I need to apply for a biometrics submission appointment if I have done so with a previous visit visa application back in 2017
2. Can I use my Nigerian Bank Account Statement in my application
3. I would not need the TB test if I apply from here, is this correct?


Thanks in advance!

Hello

Wait till it's ready

Cheers

Hello guys, my pof will mature on the 24th of April, should I go on and pay for ihs and visa fees and then complete the application or I should wait till my pof matured, thanks

Hello

Cheers

LizzieBrace:
No he doesn’t... his actually sponsoring my masters

Hello

Don't worry about it

Pay your IHS and your dependants will pay theirs during their application.


Cheers

LizzieBrace:
Please help, while filling the form I was asked to fill my dependent’s details and all which I did.
I just proceeded to the payment stage and now this pops up saying I do not have a dependent

Hello

If you have other employment letters you can add it even if they were contracts

If you don't have them then your NYSC and current employment letter should be fine


Cheers

Hello @dduchess and all…. I finished degree in 2017 tho have been working since I finished my nysc in 2019 but they are all contract jobs, I only got a full time job in 2022. Can I just submit the new companies reference letter and employment letter even though it was just Feb 2022 I joined them for my visa application or I need to add the previous company employment letters too. Thanks will await your response.

Hello

It depends on the ECO

Thanks!!

Please do Ukvi run checks on the tax status of the business?

Or they only check cac to see if the business is active?

Hello

The question is independent of POF

Does he rely on you for other financial demands? Then select appropriately

Cheers

LizzieBrace:
Do I please click yes or no?
My husband’s POF is also in my account

Hello

1. Confirm from your UnI if they will assist in finding a placement for you- this should part of your deal breaker, simply because you may not get a profitable internship if you are left without support

2. POF is only for 9months regardless of your length of study,however iHS will increase and cover the entire duration of your study

3. No idea plus I may be biased..A quick review will help, check if each Uni has Nigerian student association and contact them directly.

Cheers

Priceless25:
Please house.. I need help on making a decision on which school to proceed with, I got offers from Northampton and Salford both on MSc project management.

Northampton has a placement component to it (deposit £7000).

Salford (deposit £5500).

1. Is this placement route profitable? (Getting internships, paid or unpaid), hoping to get UK experience.

2. Because the placement is for an extra year, will I need to double the POF? And double IHS fees?

3. Which of the schools is better in terms of education?

@duchess@doyinluv@justwise

Hello

Wrong advice

He doesn't need to correct the address

Cheers

Kenny4smart:
No sir, wait till you decide on which school you’re going for. Alternatively, you can use an address of any of the schools but you will have to come back later for correction which will cost you time and money.

Hello

UKVI will not send an NSF because the address on your TB isn't same as your Uni, they are interested in the result not address

Come on, they have better things to do with their time and investigation

Cheers

Kenny4smart:
I don’t totally agree with you. To avoid non straight forward email, it is in your own interest to use your sponsor’s (school) address for the TB test.

Hello

Ensure you have your business registration documents and it is active on CAC

Cheers

can2na:
@duchess and the pros,

During visa application, if one is to use his business name as working experience, what do I need to do please?

Hello

Chase your Uni for refunds


Cheers

Wakando:
Good evening everyone. I paid my tuition at the University of Dundee but was unsuccessful in the CASE interview. I have filled a refund form since last month , but I haven't received it yet.

Hello

With Airfrance you need transit visa

2. BA might be easier but more expensive


Cheers

Oyetboy:
What's the best and cheapest flight from Newcastle or London to Nigeria? And also do you need a transit visa for Air France?

Hello

Have you checked either of them to confirm direct flights because you may not have direct flights and will need to get to Heathrow first

Cheers

slimanyd:
Morning bosses here. Which is the best airline to take among the two.

British Airways or Virgin Atlantic

Destination is Birmingham.

Hello

As long as the person joins before applying for graduate visa if that is the next plan then that should be fine


If the person is switching to skilled workers visa then the dependant can join anytime

Cheers

wonderfulperson:
Please, what happens if the dependent is not able to join MA till he finishes the masters, can they still join after masters. Thank you

Hello

Your partner can join 6months to the end of your current visa but best advise is before the end of your study

Simply because your Uni will advise UKVI that you have completed your study, ideally you would want your dependant with you before that notification is sent.


Cheers .

22teddybear:
Good day good people!

Please for MA that is already in UK on tier 4 visa, when is the latest time the dependant(either child or partner) can join in order to tag along with Post study visa? Is it 6 months to the end of the study or 6 months to the end of the current visa?

Thank you.

Hello

Are you on a study or skilled workers visa?

2. You also need to work in an eligible company, please go through the link and look at the companies listed in Appendix A

Hairybelly01:
Please for those who got refund of IHS for working in the healthcare sector, does working with an healthcare agency that gives you shifts in different carehomes also qualify you for refund?

Hello

Unfortunately No

Cheers

Adebimpefolake:
Pls am offered an unconditional offer in a university for B. A (top up) can I go with dependant.

Hello

Don't use a random address please.

You can use either Uni's it doesn't matter if you don't end up in that school, the result of the TB is what UKVI is after

Cheers

Loko40:
Good afternoon all,

Please, kindly help me out on this situation.

I did my TB test last year in order to complete my Visa application then. Unfortunately, I was diagnosed with Pulmonary Tuberculosi which I was placed on six months medications. January was my last treatment month and I was declared clean after the fifth and sixth month sputum test and the end of treatment x-ray though the sixth month sputum test is yet to be ready.

The point now is that I want to do another one for fresh application. My initial school is Staffordshire but I have requested for deposit refund because they have changed their payment plan which will be little stressful for me to meet up.

Now, I have gotten two offers Derby and Salford uni. I am still expecting more so that I will take my time to choose the one I can afford.

My worry is, I want to do another TB test now,
So that I will enough time in case there is complain about the Test outcome.

The question is can I use any other UK address apart from school address on the TB test since I have not chosen a particular school?.

Thanks.

Hello

You are correct

I read it the other

@Op.. yes your dependant will need to

Cheers

Bourne007:
I think s/he's referring to NI Number and not NIN (National Identification Number)

Hello

The delay is from your end

You may still be considered for September intake, wait and see the outcome


Cheers

CamelCase:
Yes thank you so much, I was suppose to click on REQUEST REFEREE before he’ll get the mail.
He has gotten it and I’ve submitted application.

though many schools deadline for September intake is 25 January, do you think I can still get a consideration?

How likely is it

I applied for computer science related courses on all my 5 school.

Hello

Correcting my response


Yes your dependant will need to apply for NI number

Cheers

Opiso101:
Good morning house.

Does a dependent need to apply for National Insurance Number(NI Number) or not.
Please help

Hello

Cheers

CamelCase:

But I don’t think they sent any mail to my referee.

Or na because 25 January don pass dem no wan proceed with applications?

Hello

Your POF evidence can be requested at any point, during and after visa application

Your POF is for your study in the UK

Cheers

fizcoo20:
@dduchess90, his it a must to extend POF more than a month before d visa comes out. or d 28days is ok.

thanks in anticapation.

Hello

The question should be how soon does he intend to apply for her visa after getting married, as long as it is done before his current visa expires, I would further advice before his study end date Jan 2024,simply because he may wish to apply for a graduate visa before May 2024 and he needs to ensure his dependant arrives before doing so. If this is put into consideration then that should be fine

2. The onus is to ensure there is enough evidence to show that the marriage/relationship is real

Cheers

Realshima88:
Good morning great minds on here, a friend on a study Visa In the UK wants to come to Nigeria in september this year to marry his girlfriend and then she applies for a dependant VISA. His post graduate programme ends January 2024 and his Study VISA expires MAY 2024. I want to ask about their chances of getting this done successfully based on the time left on his programme and Study VISA. Please help shed more light on this guys.

Hello

I am sure you know this is not allowed here

You are promoting fake marriage and dependants for study visa and you have seen people being told off on this thread


I have asked @Justwise to look into this and hope you get banned

Take this deceit elsewhere, remember when you get caught the consequence is massive

Cheers

sandra50:
Hello..is .

Hello @Sandra50

Can you please stop what you are doing here,

@Justwise can you help look into this and ban please

Cheers

Hello

If you have been operating your Nigerian account and have your evidence of tuition and maintenance funds there then that should be fine


Cheers

OluwaseunOMG:
URGENT!!!
Please house is it possible to use POF from Nigeria for a UK study visa application abroad? I plan to submit in Moscow.

Hello

You can submit your work reference letter

Cheers

Fynwalex:
Thank you... Can i submit my employment letter just that they are contract jobs and my salary is boldly stated in it, which will eventually show i'm well underpaid to amass that kind of money for POF... And for employment reference can i get the reference of where i currently work, even though i joined them in 2022.

Hello

From 2017-2023 is about 7years if you include 2017

So yes,in addition to your NYSC,you may need to submit more evidence for study gap

Cheers

Fynwalex:
2017 is what is on certificate...

Hello

No, fully working


Cheers

HabbyY:
