The bottom is this. . .you could be asked at the airport to show the avaliability of the fund you claimed you have during the visa application but this is rare, however, your school have the right to request for ALL the fees to be paid at once, now if you have an agreetment with your school for installment payment then u got nothing to worry about, basically, you could be asked to show that money at any point in time if they want to. Just don't triger it by. .e.g defualting in your payment , not turning up for lectures or working more than 20hrs a week and get caught.

@ all, Pls all nairalanders, there  is a new twist to this application tin.i just got a call from my bank that the embassy wants to verify my account n make sure all funds are still intact, thank God every fund  is still intact, wat i now get to know now  is that. 1, the application period  is now 20working day and the reason  for dis  is to make sure all funds are in your account after you apply,  2.they now cross check every document you supply so pls don't supply fake documents cos they will detect, wish all of us still waitin best of lucks,

when i applied it took 14 working days to get mine.but i applied early enough in June so am sure that's why it was faster cos they wouldn't have had much applications to handle at that time.you don't need to panic i understand if you are cos i felt the same way.anxiety and all lol!.They have a lot of applications at this time and it takes a bit longer now and it shows they are working bruv so dont be worried.its not going to take longer than uve waited just a lil bit of patience ok!!!

hello nairalands am new here, i have an issue i need you to help me look into my case,
i applied for a family visitors visa in june 2009, i applied to go see my brother so he sent me his document and all that , but i said i was going to sponsor myself becos i work in bank, i have the finances and all my employement records, my visa was refused, the ECO said he i didnt show enough evidences i was really related to my brother, that i should ave put pictures and all that and that my brother account is constantly overdrawn in the Uk, but he was not sponsoring me so i dont know why he put that point, i was giving a right to appeal but i didnt want to, so i forgot the appeal, so i pushed my leave to august of 2009 and i told my brother to send me more document so i could re apply and deal with all the issues the ECO  raised but my brother said he will be on vacation out of UK, and i really wanted to go on vacation soi applied for a  toursit visa with my bank statement and all that, the part where i they asked if you have a family in the UK i put No there since my brother said he wont be around. i was also refused again on the basis that my funds in my account are insufficient. that was the only reason for the second refusal.

i was really upset about the whole thing and i forgot about the UK for a while. now i want to go for my masters degree in the Uk this september i have gotten my cas letter i have my maintance funds in my account i have all the requirement for this point based system, but i am scared now, that hope my two previous refusals wont have any effect on my student visa.
on the notice refusal there was nothing like deception or false document or false representation am just scared because of my past visa refusal records, please i need the experts in the house to contribute.

Dear Nairalanders I want to share my testimony with you o!
Armed robbers came to my house around 3am last week and robbed about 7 streets.Trust Nigerian Police with their inefficiency.We called them but they did not show up.Anyway to continue my torey.The robbers finally got into my flat after breaking their way in.As they came in with their guns and knives they kept asking for money,laptops and all.It was all like a film to me and I was so shocked.One of them got hold of my International passport that has 2years UK visa on it.Apparently the robber didn't know and even if he did,its useless to him anyway,but i was really wondering why he took it even after they had collected gold,wrist watches,money and handsets from me.Anyway I had to beg this young robber who had a gun and knife to please return my passport.U know what? He flung it on my bed after mocking me,he said "so you want to travel abi?".I thank GOD because I only got the visa about a week before the incident.I have finally moved every valuable from my house ever since and also making plans to leave the area.

Since you can only come to the UK as a student one month b4 the start of your course, the BHC may hold to that rule OR they may consider the fact that u are a returning student and issue you the visa sooner, so u got nothing to worry about really cos u have done all you can do.

Okay, I think we should cross our finger and expect the ECO to read every line of the form - something (from experience) appears they barely do.

JIC, in future applications, include a letter, note, etc explaining to the ECO and make clear the position of the immigration rules as it favours you. So sad that yet again and agai , the speed at which the BHC updates thier information data base about applicant immigration history is as slow as a snail trail! Hence the need to assist them with the most recent information by adding a covering letter, note to your application.

I wish you success in your application.

I hope you stated in your form under the "Additional Information" section that you applied last year and that you were refused student visas. Hope you also alerted the ECO that you were wrongly refused visas under 320(7b) and that it was upturned in your AR request by the ECM. BHC have this administrative laziness and weakness in updating thier information records on applicants.
