Hello

Not sure how you got the figure but it will be £1023*9*2 if your Uni is outside London.

If they are applying the same time with you then it will be POF for all your dependants if not then just yours

The POF can be in their father's account, I assume he is also applying as your partner dependant

Cheers
koonleh:
Thank u so much
Pls still on POF , will I calculate based on just the 2 of them( £15,209)or with me,
secondly, can their father be their sponsor showing the said amount only

I really appreciate u.

Hello

Are you using this for study gap?
If yes, you need to get this duly corrected from NYSC( also important if needed in future)

2. If No, you may wish to skip submitting this for your visa application

Please do not type or manually edit this certificate as it renders it invalid. Any corrections will be at NYSC

Cheers

Sorry to hear this.

When did you apply

Do you have an evidence to say a decision has been made

Can you raise a complaint to both UKVi and TLS

Please attach
1. Your application details
2. A response saying decision has been made

3. Email from your Uni to defer due to visa delays

4. Email these evidence to complaints@homeoffice.gov.uk

Here are the links https://www.gov.uk/government/organisations/uk-visas-and-immigration/about/complaints-procedure

Please keep us informed

Uhn....

After much calls and mails sent to ukvi and yet my passport wasn't moved to the VAC, I went to the VAC last Friday to try my luck, I was told that my passport is not with them.
I left there with heavy heart cuz of the disappointment, on my way going back to my home state, my school mailed me that I need to defer my admission to January embarassed embarassed which means I have to request for another CAS.
But up till now, UKVI has not released my passport and I'll soon need it for documentation (though I have the scanned copy of it to apply for CAS)
What should I do?
I'm in a dilemma

Hello

Yes you can apply without them,please state them in your application where applicable and they can apply for their visa when you are ready

2. They can join you as soon as possible, you have to ensure your dependants are with you prior to the end of your studies and before you apply for your post study visa (PSW)

3. Same rules will apply for POFs,IHS, and visa fees. You will have to calculate the figure yourself when you are ready to make the application as this could will be based on when you make it

Cheers
koonleh:
Pls I need an advice

I have 2 kids as dependent, is it advisable to apply without them but stating it in the application that I have them, so as to reduce the POF, and if so, how soon can they join me. And Aw will the POF be calculated if they joining me later

babey543:
If you also check my previous posts, you should know that I only advocate marriage for dependant visa.

Also, some marriages are arranged some cultures and tradition like India and Pakistan. Arranged does not mean sham. If you need more clarification, go to google.

Some marriages does not involve courtship because of some religious beliefs to prevent fornication. Some involve marrying cousins like in most Asian countries.

UKVI are aware of all this multicultural and religious legislations.

Stop thinking you must do courtship for an efficient and genuine marriage. That is the scope most guys use to have free sex and no wonder why most guys use and dump so many ladies and becoming baby mamas with no value and self-worth.

The emphasis on dependant visa is ensuring your marriage or relationship is still subsisting.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 8 by dduchess90(f): 9:59am On Oct 03, 2022
Hello

I assume you applied for study visa

Have you had a look at your email for your BRP letter?

If not please chase up with UKVI and or send an email to this link https://www.gov.uk/biometric-residence-permits

If you are behind resumption I will advise you take a screenshot of the evidence in chasing this up

People on this forum have travelled without it, you should be fine

Hello

I will ask one question and leave it at that

The OP that posted the question is she married??

I don't think you understood the question and my response to it

You can also see @Giselle237 and @Gloriyah response to the same question

I actually do take offense @the bolded but I will let it slide

Take your time, go back to the questions raised and read to understand


I also didn't put a figure on married couples but I know evidence submitted will not be months, if it is that easy and simple it will mean people can conduct sham marriages and submit to UKVI knowing each other for months,weeks, days and hours according to your advice

People may have and can get away with it doesn't mean we should encourage it

The OP said the relationship is for 3months and you speak about marriage, are you encouraging sham marriages too?

Your response has nothing to do with the Ops question, everything you said here I know and people know so please don't start an argument that isn't necessary.

It's not difficult to read and understand sha

Cheers
babey543:
The 2 years criteria is not applicable for married couples.

Stop the argument and dont mislead people. You have even posted the evidence yourself clearly

For married couples, submit your marriage cert, pre and post wedding pictures, whatsapp and facebook communication evidence and other proofs to show that your relationship is subsisting.

The 2 years rule only applies to the unmarried ones.

Hello

Here's a screenshot of possible documents to provide to proof your relationship

You don't have to get married to your partner since your relationship is over 2years it qualifies as partner dependant

TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 8 by dduchess90(f): 10:46pm On Oct 02, 2022
Hello


Did you read the OPs question??

Even with married couples the evidence provided will span years not months.

It's important we truly understand the question asked before responding


Cheers
babey543:
The 2 years is only applicable if the partner are not married.
The 2 years evidence is also applicable if u are in the UK and desire to apply for leave to remain.

For married couples, you only need evidence your marriage is subsisting and marriage certificate. There is no timeframe as some religions do not permit courtship.

With only marriage certificate, pictures before and after wedding pictures, evidence of honeymoon, Whatsapp and Facebook picture and communication evidence, hotel staying address e.t.c . The dependant will surely get successful visa application as demonstrated in this forum and others.

Hello

I remember you

Congratulations on your kids visa, is yours out??

Yes you can use your BnB address but confirm with your host if you need that to receive documents or letters

Well, an idea of your MAs school, course, how long they have been there etc, basic questions you should be able to answer as a dependant. I have seen border patrol officers ask the kids to confirm who they travelled with and most importantly your POF evidence

Travel safe

Multiple documents of those examples, so it will be more than one evidence

Besides can you provide tenancy agreement showing both names in the rent contract that you have lived together for 2years for a relationship of 3months??

Cheers

BeatriceM1:
Will only tenancy agreement suffice?
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 8 by dduchess90(f): 9:48am On Oct 02, 2022
Hello

Unfortunately your relationship is too young to qualify as Dependant partner

It has to be a relationship of minimum 2years

You will need to provide certain evidence to show you have been together randomly selected for over 2years

So it could be bills, bank statement, investments, tenancy agreement etc

UKVI will verify what needs verification and they know how to do so


Here's a screenshot of an example of what could be provided

Cheers

Hello @cutebear

I am interested in some issues raised here,is it possible to provide more details on this if asked??

Cheers
cutebear:
Everyone, please be very vigilant especially if you have gotten a decision but it's taking longer than usual to get your passport back. I know they will tell you to wait 10 working days after getting decision before you will get your passport but THAT IS NOT NORMAL! We all know it doesn't take that long to get your passport back. People that get a decision on the 13th working day usually get collection mail on the 15th working day.

Today made it 10 working days after decision/brp letter and I hadn't gotten my passport. I called British High Commission Abuja customer care and the staff that took my details called my mobile line later that night and was demanding 50k before he could track my passport for me. I did my bio since the first week of August so, the past 8 weeks have been from one battle to another. Luckily, my friend told me yesterday that she had a family friend in BHC so I quickly gave her my details. The feedback I got was that my passport had basically been abandoned! UKVI didn't even bother to inform BHC to print my visa. It was my friend's family friend that sent an email to UKVI and they finally approved it that same yesterday. My visa was printed and was dispatched by DHL today!!! Due to their negligence, I have already missed a lot in school and I will still miss classes of next week and a bit of upper week because one-way flight tickets for this coming week are showing 2M and above.

All I'm saying is that be vigilant! It's not normal for our passports to just be sitting in BHC office collecting dust. Infact, if it's taking longer than 3 days after decision, start sending emails and blasting them with calls. BHC o, UKVI o, all of them are incompetent!!!

Hello BeatriceM1

You have asked lots of questions on the thread is it possible to slow down and digest the information so you don't get overwhelmed?

Back to your question, would this be for your partner (someone you are in a relationship with)? How long have you both been together??

Let's start from that point.

I also see you have questions about Uni's, I will advise you get that all sorted before tackling this

You can change a few notes via bank to get you sorted upon arrival , hold the rest of your bank statement for the balance if requested at POE

Another thing is to request your bank to allow you have access to your debit or credit card in the UK
