Hello, please how can one get this document "Home office consent form (page 1 & 3 I filled and signed for him ".

Hello

If the bank is regulated by the CBN it should be fine

Remember your POF is for your study in the UK

Cheers

Dogo147:
Pls house, is Globus bank good for POF?

Hello

Your bank statement is valid for 31days so you must attend your biometrics before the 31st day of printing it


Where that falls between doing it same month or the next month doesn't matter and that decision is entirely yours

Best advice is to submit your documents as close enough to your biometrics day

Cheers

governorudeh:
Good morning All.

Please I need an advice.

As a Self Service Applicant, can I upload and submit my bank statement and other documents onlin by June and attend the biometric on July, or should I submit my documents on June and attend my biometric the month?

Please, which one is better?

Hello

Done

Cheers

yhtsm:
Abeg make pesin answer me naaa. I just need a little explanation here. Thank you.

Hello

You only need to submit your reference/employment/confirmation/promotion letter if you need to show evidence of study gap

Study gaps refers to gaps of more than 5years since your last degree


Cheers

yhtsm:
In what scenario would someone need to upload this reference/employment/confirmation/promotion letter? I'm asking to learn. Thanks.

Hello

At the moment

1. Yes as long as the dependant has her COS

2. Yes

Rules are changing in Jan 2024 regarding MA switching before end of studies, it targets switching to skilled workers visa but may also affect switching to other visa category

Cheers

Lordjones:
Hello house,
Please can a dependent of a student in the uk switch to a skilled work visa even when the student has not yet completed his studies?

Also can the student also switch to be a dependent of a skilled work visa holder before studies completion? Thanks.

Hello

Can you do a bit of research on this


Here's a link to check and calculate it
https://www.gov.uk/student-visa/family-members

And then use Oanda conversion to check the naira value
https://www.oanda.com/currency-converter/en/?from=GBP&to=GBP&amount=1

Once done please let us know and we can double check your figures

Unless someone already did so and can provide an answer for you

I prefer if you attempt it yourself. You can always defend your figures without needing to refer to a Nairalander answer

Cheers

Pls @ duchess no attend to my question since yesterday; Questions Answered Part 8 by danzolla32: 5:53pm On Jun 14
Please expert, how much do I need to show in my spouse POF account with a child who want to come over? Please 🙏

Hello

Can you screenshot the page you are looking at??

You don't need to upload the checklist, that is for you to sign at TLS


Cheers

Shaffy001:
Please to gurus in the building
Am about uploading all my documents in tls as self service.
Nysc certificate falls under which category, TB test and checklist....is it right to put them under category of "others"

Hello

Yes that will be lump sum plus it doesn't meet the criteria of having the required funds for minimum 28days, it will mean the required funds were only met in a day.

Your POF maturing doesn't mean you have to submit your application same day

Wait and sort out the difference, pay an extra fee deposit and request an updated CAS

Or pay for your accommodation and provide the evidence of that plus cover letter to explain the difference

A 4days to 1week wait is better than a refusal

Cheers

Fraih:
I'm co-asking, No I don't think it has been answered 1-2 pages back.
Fine, duchess90 advised paying part of school fees and asking for updated CAS statement from school which is quite on point.
Now, imolemiimole is asking a peculiar case where POF matures tomorrow (same with me), paying some part to school at this point may not be an option cos we know even with BM rate, before the school confirms and acknowledges and all (with them not easily accessible now), one will expect that to be all confirmed from the school minimum 4 working days.

The question again is, is it possible to deposit about 200 to 300k into the account, and then probably writing in a cover letter to explain the deposit (a day to the end of 28days cycle) if it is going to be termed "lump sum"

Pls guys what do you think? Duchess, justwise, mimilyrics

Hello

Just to reiterate what was said on the study thread because I see you reposted same question here


If caught you will get a 10year ban

Your brother's wife and child are NOT your dependants


Cheers

nubiod99:
Good day all,
Pls I need an advise house I enroll for a school in UK have made the first payment 5000pounds and done other documents pending TB test where am having issues now is that my dependant is my brother wife and one of his kid pls is it advisable to go along with her and will there not be any issue if they collect our passport for submission won't they detect any error or what's your stake in it

Hello

It's 586.65 as at today

Here's a link to check

https://www.oanda.com/currency-converter/en/?from=GBP&to=NGN&amount=1

Cheers

atesun:
New bank rate is not showing on Oando. Please where can I get updated pounds/Naira rate?

Hello

The Oanda rate used will be the day you submit your application (pay your IHS and visa fees).That is your application date

If there are concerns about exchange rates, you might want to consider paying more deposit to your Uni to balance out the difference


Cheers

Superex:
duchess90 mimilyrics I want to ask, with this exchange rate dropping daily, if I submit my POF, when is it checked and verified with the Oanda rate? Is it during submission of my visa application or during my biometrics? Because e fit short on its own ooo later on due to the rate.

Hello

You should be able to proceed with it

A cover letter to highlight this will be useful.

Option 2 will be to amend it at the TB centre. I think you will have to pay for it

Cheers

TARAANDPETS:
After undergoing my TB test, my new passport was issued, resulting in a different passport number. However, the TB test record still shows my old passport number. Can I proceed with my visa application using the TB test result despite this discrepancy?

Hello

Increase the deposit paid to your Uni and request for an updated CAS

That will balance out the difference.

Oanda rate will always apply on the day you submit your application (pay your IHS and visa fees)

Cheers

BNLHealthcare:
Hi Gurus in the house. Please, I need your advice.
My sister has received her CAS and is on the verge of applying for vIsa. But the problem is her POF is due and the money is enough till yesterday when the exchange rate went up. So the money in her account might not be enough due to changes in exchange rate. We have applied for a visa but have not paid for IHS nor submitted the Visa application. What is the best way to handle this?

Hello

If the POF is in the MAs account then Yes

If it is in the dependant 's account then No

Cheers

aiadewale:
Please is it compulsory for the dependant to submit consent to use POF?

Hello

I responded

Cheers

Abiolamary:
@duchess90

Anyone, please?

Hello

I believe this is your question

If you haven't received a refusal mail by now (check your spam/junk emails)


Then it's okay to say congratulations

Let us know once you receive your passport

Cheers [quote author=Abiolamary post=123788617][/quote]

Hello

Since the offers are for september you should be fine, your previous post didn't clarify that


The TB certificate has to be valid by the date of application,If it is September that's fine , if it is January then you will need to redo your TB test

Cheers

mrsglo:
I have an unconditional offer for September 2023 intake from Leeds Beckett University for now only. The other offers are conditional offers from Uni of Sunderland and NTU.

Please what exactly do you mean by the bolded above? Does this mean it is bad to get a TB certificate that expires in 6 months? Since I will be traveling by September at the most, does it matter if the TB certificate expires in 6 months?

Sorry for all these questions. I just don’t want to make a mistake.

Thanks @duchess90

Hello

Are the offers you have conditional or unconditional?

I would advise that you narrow down your choice of Uni asap so you don't get a TB certificate that will expire in 6months.

Regarding the Uni address, you can use either. The result of the TB is what matters

Cheers

mrsglo:
I am in a bit of a jam and need advice from experienced people here.

I currently hold offers from 2 Universities, but I am still hesitating because of the considerable tuition fee. I am still expecting response from other Universities with better payment plan.

The issue is that I want to book my TB appointment and they are requesting for UK address. I understand I should use the university address but I may end up not going to any of the universities I currently hold an offer to, if I get a better offer.

If I use any of the addresses to book the TB appointment and decide to take up another offer from an entirely different University, will there be an issue?

Hello

Not being cheeky but honest

I'll also ignore the comment about being oversabi, I assume that isn't for me

Cheers

rittyben:
Lol! No point being cheeky you know?

Hello

Yes, as long as it is regulated by the CBN

Cheers

LarbieNesky:
Please can I use my micro finance bank account to print my POF statement for Visa application? Is it acceptable by UKVI?

Hello

Both if you want

The decision is entirely yours

Cheers

Boscojugunu:

My question is which one of the should d she use for her letter of reference

Hello


From a few weeks to months

It depends on who is reviewing and how complicated your case might be


Cheers

iretiolu92:
How many months does it take administrative review to make decision

Hello

I am unsure of what the form A
process is.

Hopefully someone can help

Cheers

Toryekokwu:
Hi, good evening please kindly assist.

Please does any one know how long it takes for gtb to debit their charges and how long it would take for school to confirm payment. Please 🙏🏼. Deadline is June 20th.


@duchess90 please I need your help 🙏🏼

Hello

Can you send an email to
SheffieldStudentTeamAmendments@homeoffice.gov.uk

Hopefully you get some response from them

Cheers

stephenobuks:
@duchess90

I got collection text from tls Thur 8 and collected passport/visa from dhl today. But there hasn’t been decision mail/brp mail for Ma. Meanwhile two dependant got their brp mail already. Any need to be worried? How important is the brp mail?

Hello

I am sure you can do a bit of research seeing you are currently studying..

Check the first page and do the maths

Cheers

rittyben:
Is 2M enough for POF for a child dependant to join his parents who came in in September on student Visa

Hello

Your question is confusing


The criteria for your child visa is to have the evidence of maintenance for 9months in the UK. It doesn't change regardless of how much time the MA has spent.


Cheers

Ginnypal69:
Hello house.
I have been in the UK with my spouse since January and we want to apply for our children visa in August. I want to know if we have to show their maintenance fees of 9 months in the POF or we subtract the number of months we already spent. Note that we have finished paying the first school fees.
Thanks

Hello

It shouldn't be an issue

Send the updated version to your Uni so they have that on their record.

Keeping quiet doesn't help, do the right thing


Cheers

Veefid:
Please house is it a bad idea to tell a school that you have an unconditional offer from that your CV you submitted was outdated and you only realised your mistake now? Or is it better you keep quiet?
Also, Can using a job role different from the one you got admission with for your visa application cause you issues?
Thank you please. I’m really confused on what to do.

Hello

Yes

The consent letter should be clear on what account covers what aspects for instance your parent account could be for your fees whilst you take care of your maintenance whilst studying


Cheers

koolangel1:
Hello guys,
