Hello guys, pls i need advice on UK student visa

Submitted application 20th July
Biometric; 3rd of Aug
On 23rd Aug additional information was requested
On 24th Aug i sent additional info to provided email from embassy
On 22 September, received am email saying "Application was refused, because i did not submit additional document as requested"
I submitted all requested document, what should I do, as am suppose to resume next week. This is an error on the part of the embassy, a review might take 3months, and dnt want to take that route!
Anyone had or heard of someone with a similar situation?
Please submit Administrative Review if you are not inna hurry. Else reapply. If you are going for administrative review, be specific with time and dates which you were sent a request and the moment you responded including the document you sent to them, they will check their database and see where there's a mistake. This could take up to 6months wait period. Else Reapply.

I am planning to go without getting the visa from the embassy and this will prevent from fingerprint , but the visa is not fake , I don't know how to go about the fingerprint it's the only problem i am having now , please any one with a way out ??
the immigration won't let you in without proper documentation from your home country which includes your purpose, data. Even if you navigate it enough to fly, you will be sent back. You can't bypass it as a Nigerian citizen.

My application was on 21st of June 2022 it is a standard uk visit visa and am traveling alone. I am thinking of sending a paid mail to them and also sending a letter written by my lawyer through DHL to the British embassy in Lagos. I will enclose my first passport in 2010 data page and the visa page and my recent application, my university in Nigeria certification that I graduated in 2009 .What do u think? What other option do u think I can employ. The lawyers I contacted in the uk are asking for huge some and I can’t afford it. Exploring local options please am open to suggestions
you have 3 months from the Refusal date to get it overturned or revisited (advisable). You were denied recently without a ban, then you need to check if it's not your new evidence that's linking you back to 2008. If you are sure it's mistake and fault from thier end, I won't advise you to relent or back out on the pursuit of true light using a uk based Immigration adviser or lawyer because everything is negotiable, complaint is not enough to get the decision revisited or overturned because, unless your complaint is been uphold, anything asides that, the decision will remain untouched. If they enforce a law on you, it's advisable to challenge it by law also. Please you have 3month to receive a headway on this, else you are going 10yrs wait period. Everyone opinion is good. I Just couldn't overlook your post.

only the Decision Making Department can request for your passport or send you the decision letter. those mail address above won't get to them, you can only get to them through paid mail or complaint and the issue will be escalated to them, while you wait for a response from the DMC.

Please still hoping to get advice on what to do on this situation above
try using it, but have it in mind that you are likely to be sent back to make a legal declaration about it missing. probably at the court or so.. just to avoid double collection at their own expense.

Thank you for the response. Is it possible to temporarily withdraw it without any implications?

Also, what’s the process of entering without an appointment?
you line up at the collection line and you show them collection slip at the entrance. You don't need to go deep with them at the entrance, then you proceed to the collection counter and explain your situation. No implications, if your application hasn't been decided after the urgent need of your passport, you must return the passport also if your application application has been decided without rejection letter, you must return the passport to receive the decision.

Good morning.
I need advice from someone in the house.

I have an interview at the US embassy on Thursday and my passport is still with UKVI. I have called and emailed severally but it’s still the same response. At this rate, I wouldn’t be able to get the passport before Thursday.
Has anyone been in this situation before?
Is it possible to show up at the US embassy without the passport and be given another date.

I cannot afford to reschedule as the dates available are now 2024!

Please help. Thank you
you can visit the TLS/VAC where you did the Biometrics on how to temporarily withdraw your passport for urgent use, and will return it back as soon as you are done with the urgent need of it. Kindly do that fast. Don't leave until they sort it out for you there. Be patient with them there with respect as you address the situation.
FamilyRe: Am I Responsible For The Pregnancy Or It Is A Setup? by dirolad(m): 8:04pm On Aug 19, 2022
studentofTruth:
Not true. It's an obvious setup, and here's why:

No matter the menstrual period, menses start coming 14 days after ovulation. And it's after the period is missed (doesn't start on the expected day) that a woman becomes concerned about pregnancy — many women won't even bother until several days later to give room for normal body variation.

So, even if she ovulated on that 30th July, she wasn't supposed to expect her menses until 13th and could only get concerned by 14th (the whole of 13th must pass because it could have been by night) if she's that sensitive. If she ovulated on the 29th, there's a chance the egg has died by 30th because eggs last 12 hours (at most 24hrs) but even at that, she would be expecting the period on 12th and would only panic and go for test by the next day, 13th (the whole of 12th must have to pass because it could flow at any moment) if she's that concerned.

A test done on 12th shows it was a trap, and he walked into it.

At Op, the chances of being the father is low. Nobody does a random pregnancy test 13 days after sex.

Ok na now u remember say you love ur wife to be.
No try tell her!!!
It will break her down emotionally.
After all the whole trust she gave u..
The girl wey carry belle for u,
Wetin make you no give her postinor 2?
You where supposed to be careful as your marriage is close.
But you let your illiterate dick to ruin your plans.
I wouldn't advice you to abort the baby
Cos it's illegal...
Devil don use u shine!!!!
So you no know say pre-cum fit pregnant a lady?
Baba the thing don enter...
U see wetin one nightstand don cause u...
My advice to u is to go and run a scan on the pregnant girl and read ur calendar well.
But before you read ur calendar, mind you sperm can thrive in the cervix of a woman up to 3days.
From the scan results, u will see the developmental stages of the foetus, how many weeks old it is...
Now u substrate it from the date u had sex wt the girl. If it tallies, Abobby na you get the belle.
If it does not Tally, just raise your hands and thank God, cos no be u get the belle.
Show her your findings, she will confess the truth.
Thank me later
ok

I need someone to put me through on appeal / judicial review . This is my second refusal and reapplying will make me look desperate but this is so unfair !
I Submitted
CAC document
Business account
Personal account
Landed document
Car receipt
World traveller insurance
Cover letter
Sponsor documents :uncle : British passport , pay slip s three month , P60 and invitation later
Travel history: Dubai (work and visits )
Georgia (Europe)
Seychelles
Kenya
Ghana
Republic of Benin
And while the application was going on with keep my passport option ( went to Rwanda)

My Question is :
Can’t my economic circumstances improve ? In 6 months a lot has happened - Inflation , dollar increase . My business is general trading , logistics . I can’t evaluate how much I will make in a year in its appropriate figures but the facts are presented in the account statement that is why it is requested
you did no bad by reapplying with new evidence because that's just what's expected, you could have provided enough document in support and explanation. It's as if your previous refusal should take a while before your circumstances could change enough to convince. I hope the complaint work in your favour. If it doesn't, try to prove your Source of Incomes are active and trading. And work on the Tax as advised.
TravelRe: I Want To Relocate To Kenya Nairobi And I Will Need Help by dirolad(m): 3:01am On Aug 07, 2022
Mindlog:
+Get your hotel reservation
-Apply online for e-visa
-Get your yellow card.
-Confirm if Kenya still requires covid test results.
-Within 3/4 days of staying in a hotel in Nairobi, you should get a cool bedsitter of between 10,000ksh-12,000ksh (would suggest somewhere in Rongai near Africa Nazarene University).

I will suggest you apply for a degree/Masters program in that University for September admission and opt for online classes only to show up on campus for end of the trimester exams.

Being a student, would give you the opportunity to regularize your stay there while you freelance as against being on tourist visa, renewing on the long run would be more expensive.

Your studentship would make the University apply for Pupil pass (student visa) on your behalf, the University would issue you cover letter to facilitate you opening a Kenyan bank account, getting a Tax Pin and your Alien ID.

Being a student who minds his business and keep it low, Kenyan police and immigration officers are less likely to look your way.

Got a refusal letter this morning, to me the is no reasonable reason for the refusal as all large deposit was stated in My cover letter with receipt of my land I sold mid February
You sold a land and it's reflecting on your statement. You could have declared it under Other income "investment". He or she didn't take his/her time to subtract on your behalf in the absence of it on your application form. Your Bank statement was just viewed as Self-Employment proceed overall. Assuming you differentiate on your application Self-employment from Other income, no choice than to add and minus. even if your bank statement credit is above your self-employment as stated it won't affect as it's already combination of Self-Employment and "Investment". Hope you get the difference? The ECO could have subtracted the investment proceed from the statement of account and you won't have been rejected on that ground.

Thank you for this tip. My husband went to submit his passport at the TLS Ikeja office today. He printed a copy of the response from the paid mail, and it was helpful. What i don't understand is why no mail was sent to him to bring his passport even after a decision has been made.

Please has anyone been in this situation or gone the route of keep my passport. Any idea how long it would take from when passport is submitted to collection.
within 3-5 working days, he should be contacted. Less than 10 working days at maximum as stated in the mail. If it's taking longer, you can follow up with UKVI through mail, but I don't think it will get to that.

Surprisingly, i applied together with my husband but no update at all on his. He also opted for keep my passport.
i sent a paid mail on his behalf and the response was that a decision has been taken. Not sure when they will request for his passport.
Has anyone experienced this before? We always apply together for our previous visas and received back on the same day. This renewal is quite different.
he should go and submit his passport to the VAC showing them the decision mail and explain to them he optioned for keep my passport. They will collect it and contact him back when it's ready for collection. Do that quickly tho

Guys in my previous visitor visa, the agent filled not married for me while I was married with kids.

Can I correct this in my application for renewal? Urgent advise pls
in as much we try to be in an understanding term with you, hiding the truth from you won't be of any help. First of all, to demonstrate marriage tie needs marriage certificate of which has to do with date you got married. Now your kids too has been in existence during your time of initial application of which you withheld declaring them even though they won't be joining you on that trip. This are facts that are important judging your circumstances. And dates gaps and differences really Matter when trying to see and spot changes. It depends on the ECO. If the ECO is not sure you made that deception intentionally it won't lead to ban. But if it's glaring and the ECO is sure you used deception, it might not be a favourable outcome. There are some tricks that if someone use for you yourself, you will be so vexed the person is taking you for a f0ol. How you choose to explain why those facts wasn't declared and you are now declaring is up to you.

In both application I stated that I graduated from Ukraine some years back I added my school certificate and letter from the school stating the same.
I also stated I am employed and showed my salary account and lettee from my employer in both applications.

I decided to sponsor myself this time since I realised my account balance was enough for my trip
You confused the ECOs about your circumstances, since you are not applying for student Visa, I don't think demonstrating your previous study was necessary but only your travel history to Ukraine. Your current tie is your employment. But since you have drawn Thier attention to it, you have to finish what you have started. It's not a bad thing for someone to sponsor you on your previous application and you decide to sponsor yourself now. But they are not sure you have graduated and you are already working. Your application was treated like a dependant. My Advise now is; the best new further evidence you can use to demonstrate you have finished your study in Ukraine is your "NYSC Dispatch Certificate" that should justify your previous Education and Entry to a Paid Employment in your home country. Since you are already Employed, please treat your application like an employed applicant. Your Leave Letter from your office is Important. And your monthly expenses should equate your outgoing funds from your salary account. All you needed was only the travel history from Ukraine but you have opened Long story. Add your NYSC certificate and address that if your Studentship in Ukraine wasn't completed yet it won't have been possible to engage in NYSC in your country. And your NYSC finishing time to when you were offered employment too shows your gradual progress. All this explanations wouldn't have been needed if you didn't include all your previous Education and all. But to get the Visa now, you have to address Thier doubt thoroughly.
