Hello

Same process as usual

Fill the application form, submit it ,go for an appointment/interview . The decision officer will let you know if you have been granted or refused on the spot

Just ensure you have enough evidence to show you are returning to complete your study.

Cheers

Hi please, I have this question how can one apply for visiting visa to US while on study visa in United kingdom ( note she has a citizen parent in US).
Thanks

Hello

Option 1: Upload a cover letter stating the error in his name and the correct name
Option 2: cancel the application and restart

Your choice

A bit of a learning for everyone here. Before moving to the payment page, double check each section of your visa application and correct any errors you spot. It's also fine if you have someone you trust (i.e family members not agents please) that can look at your application and spot errors you can't see before proceeding to pay

Cheers

I mispelt my son's second name on UK VISA Application and I have paid IHS fee. What can I do ? 🙏

Hello

1. Yes you can

2. Use your current location please, previous addresses will match the MAs when looked at.

3. He is in school, indicate so and use the correct/current address

Cheers

Good evening house, pls I'm trying to fill my son's application for visa as a dependant, he's less than 2 years of age.

Kindly help clarify some things, I will appreciate any help I can get.
1. About the email address, can I use my mail for him, same one I'm using for my application?
Because when they asked if he has a mail, I picked no, it belongs to someone else.

2. About our location, I used our former address in a different state to ensure it tallies with the address his father used as the main applicant during his application.
We have relocated to a different state pending when we will travel, I'd like to know if it's okay we use the old address, there is a section where they asked us to disclose previous adress in the last two years, how long he stayed and when we stopped staying there.

3. On his schooling, they asked if he's in school, the address, phone number and location... he stopped schooling at our former location in January, same location I'm using as our address in our application, he is now schooling in the new state we reside now, should I just say no and save myself the stress, and say he's not schooling or which of the school address do I put bearing in mind that I transferred his school fees to his schools account this month and that will reflect in my statement of account for POF

Hello

Preferably colored

Cheers

Goodevening house, Please can I scan my documents in color or it has to be grayscale or black and white?I'm doing self service

Hello

1. The request is usually for study gaps above 5 years but just incase do you have an employement, confirmation or promotion letter? Any of that will suffice

2. Submit the registry certificate

Cheers

Hello everybody pls I need advise on this issue
1, is it a must for me to get a recommendation letter from my place of work for visa? I have 5yrs study gap. Reason is I don’t what anyone in my place of work to know I’m traveling.
2, we have two marriage certificates- one from registry the other one from the church can my wife use both for the visa.

Thanks.

Hello

I'll answer the second question, No you don't have to wait another 28days

You can apply after getting your CAS

Cheers

Episte:

Can one travel to the UK with "Action bitters"?

Hello

Yes

The person will need your login details

Cheers

Welcomme:
Pls is it allowed if I ask someone to help me pay visa fee and ihs fee in UK?

Hello

It will still need to be tied to services and/or professional conduct not fully on visa decision

That was the point I made,if there's evidence that one of the above led to the visa decision then that could work, ,if there's none and its fully on the visa decision then Goodluck to the OP

Cheers

Oggg:
We’ve seen complaints lodged about how their visa decision was handled and the visa decisions overturned on this platform .. was common in d early parts of this thread… make d person look well inside the thread them go see ppl tht went through it.
Or do PAP like some person a few days ago on this thread..

Hello

Complaints are about the services offered and professional conduct not on decision made on your application

That is for an administrative review, if you don't have that option,you have to reapply

Cheers

ATPx:
Please how do I make a formal complaint as I believe my application was refused because the eco overlooked my documents and made a hasty decision.

Hello

Your child is joining his father as a dependant

So your husband's/ father's/MA's details


Cheers

midey93:
Please I'll be traveling and applying together with my child as dependents, main applicant is already in the UK.

While filling my child's application, How do I answer this question " who is the person you are applying with or joining? Will it be my details or my hubby's?

Hello

I don't know what 33% means

However bear in mind that you are allowed to work 20hrs per week term time . The minimum wage currently stands at £10.42 per hour.

Do the maths on the wage X number of hours and substract rent,bill, food,transport etc

You can judge by yourself if this is possible

Cheers

meetgaby:
Hello

Please I need advise.

Is it wise to take Plymouth university offer especially with their payment plan? Especially their 33% every two months payments. Will I be able to meet the timing working?

Hello

Not just at the point of decision making

The POF is for that person's study.

Upon entry border patrol can choose to ask for such documents

Most Uni's are now quickly reporting defaulters to UKVI stating that financial documents submitted at the point of visa application were false.

Your study permit can be revoked if investigations are made on this and found true/guilty.

Cheers

olola4:
The money should be in your account until a decision has been made on your application.

Hello

Your POF is for your study any other arrangement is deceit and will attract a 10year ban when caught

Also we don't post such here.

Cheers

Highlyfavoured3:
Since the UK Embassy verified the POF, what then happens if one has lesser amount that what was on the acct statement used for the application? I mean refunding money to source after printing statement of acct.

Hello

No concerns at all

Submit the TB Cert given

Cheers

Adave97:

Hello

Just to add to what @mimilyrics said

Most Uni's will expect you to do your masters immediately, any break you will have to return home to apply when ready


Cheers

Kelvinnosa:
Good day, please i want to ask the house, someone that is going for a top-up program for his master's, I want to know if after the top-up program, he will immediately start his master's or if they can (i.e the school) give the person some time like 6mnth to 1yr before he can apply for the program if the individual wants a break before the master's...

or it is compulsory for him to start immediately after the Top-up program ?

Hello

Within 10days after arriving the UK


Cheers

Yhemitz:
Please house, on the issue of getting BRP. Is it 10 days I received my visa I will count or 10days after arriving UK. O didn't want to waste transport fee to the post office.

Hello

You can use same or different email it is entire your decision

My advise will be same email for toddler and then your spouse's email for hers


Cheers

Adave97:
Good day every one ,

I've filled my visa application form but haven't submitted it nor paid for my IHS and visa yet, because my POF is still running. I wanna fill out for my dependants (2) .

Do I use my own personal email to fill/apply on their behalf ? Or should I create an email to do that for them as my toddler doesn't have an email but spouse has hers .

Please someone should explain to me ooo

Hello

Same reference letter if nothing has changed since your admission application

2. It should suffice if you were volunteering at your last place of work


Cheers

HenriFayol:
Hello, regarding the reference letter....is it the same reference letter used for school application or a different reference letter addressed to the embassy.

Also, my last place of employment was for 6months working as a volunteer. And this is what i ised to secure my admission. Will it suffice assuming the admission reference is what is needed.

Hello

If you haven't received a refusal email then congratulations in advance


Cheers

Hello Nairalanders,

We submitted our document at TLS Abuja last week Wednesday and got a mail today with the subject "Your UK visa application is ready for collection."

Does this mean positive feedback? I'm curious, we plan to go there tomorrow. Can someone share from their recent experience. This is a student visa.

Hello

What enrollment fee??

Monies paid at the point of enrolling is still part of the tuition (school fees). There's nothing like enrollment or even application fee

Cheers

infosoftlife:
@princeu001

Do you mind paying the enrollment fee after the first deposit for CAS?
Post all questions relating to your UK admission here.

Hello

1. The affidavit is fine

2. Declare it, if your Uni gave you an offer with a previous masters than generally UKVI will be happy with that


Cheers

lollyrekiat:
Hello, please on my NECO certificate my name was misspelled "YOMI instead of YEMI" I've been using Affidavit with it over the years, can it cause VISA denial?

Question 2: should I declare my 1st masters during VISA application? It was declared during school application.
I am planning to travel with student visa Sept 2023 (Masters), I 've unconditional offer already.

Hello

I mean one naira

If she is fully sponsored, you will declare it but it doesn't take out that section so put one naira when asked.

It will make more sense when you start

Cheers

PhilJames:
By N1, you mean 1 million naira?

Thank you so much for this. It will go a long way

Hello

I see you posted same on general visa thread .Keep an eye on it

As a retiree she should have her retirement/pension letter, and slips/bank statement showing that is still being paid

Her bank statement should be clear to show all she receives is her pension, if you send any upkeep highlight that on her account. If her account is messy, she should clean it up by ensuring only her pension is credited to her account going forward, you may have to wait for that to happen if this is the case (Minimum 3months of a clean bank account)

What other activities does she do at the moment as a retiree? These are the ties you are looking for

With kids/grandkids,cover letter and pictures will be useful, if she is engaged in church activities a letter from the church will useful

Since you are sponsoring the entire trip only put N1, in the section asking if she is contributing to the trip.

I'll stop here so others can add more

Cheers

PhilJames:
Thank you duchess90 for your response. She's a retired Civil Servant earning pension. She doesn't own a property. I will be the one to sponsor everything. I have my accommodation contract papers, payslip from my employer, and a bank statement of about £8k (hope it's enough).
There are grand kids and other kids back in Nigeria ( how do I prove this?).

Is her pension of less than N50k monthly sufficient?
She's basically coming to take care of my wife who will give birth in few weeks time.

Thank you.

Hello

Single please, in the relevant evidence section

Merge same documents with more than 1 page only i.e if your bank statement exceeds 1page

Cheers

Ugmama:
@mimilyrics @duchess90
During upload of documents visa application stage) , do we upload documents singly with description or merged documents e.g in study evidence and employment evidence

Hello MatrixReloaded

It has been a while now

Unfortunately I don't have any SOP or CV to share plus I don't have access to my emails and can't send either.

If you are comfortable to post what you submitted here for comments that will be great.Hopefully others can help with your request (free of charge)


Cheers

I have never worked with my cert but have a registered business till date.

I need a good SOP and C.V for MBA program.

Any support here will be highly appreciated

Send the copy to hcjsdxy@163.com

Hello

That will be a visit visa, the general visa thread will be useful to see how people put their application together

Back to your question,it depends on who is sponsoring the trip and to what degree. Is it you or them? Are you part or fully sponsoring?

The general documents will be a copy of you BRP, passport,student status letter, birth certificate,letter of invitation, if they are staying with you then evidence of accommodation,if you are sponsoring the entire trip then bank statement,payslips etc should be included.

Their own financial and home ties will still be considered by the ECO not just yours so you will need to submit same from their end. At 70 i assume they are retired and receiving pension, do they own properties? Is there family and other kids/grandkids in Nigeria? Are they involved in church activities that will need them home?. These sorts of information/documents will be useful to include.

Check the general visa thread

No TB is required

Cheers

PhilJames:
Hello all.

Good morning. Please a quick one, what are the documents required for a student to invite his/her parent of over 70 years to UK for a six months visit?
