Is it a must to put an address on the locator form?

That’s why it’s called passenger locator. Your address and phone number is complusory

Babababy:
From 24 October fully vaccinated passengers and most under 18s arriving in England from countries not on the red list can take a cheaper lateral flow test, instead of a PCR test, on or before Day 2 of their arrival into the UK. These can be booked from 22 October
Change will come into effect for those returning from half term breaks with lateral flow tests available to book through private providers listed on gov.uk
Passengers must upload a photo of their test to verify results as soon as possible, with free confirmatory NHS PCRs for any positive cases
Eligible fully vaccinated passengers arriving in England from countries not on the red list can take a lateral flow test on or before day 2 of their arrival from October 24, rather than PCR tests – cutting the cost of tests in time for travellers returning from half term breaks. These can be booked from 22 October.

Eligible travellers will be able to order cheaper lateral flow tests from private testing providers as an alternative to a PCR, offering faster results. The list of approved private providers will go live on GOV.UK on the 22nd October.

I am traveling tomorrow do I need to book day 2 test for my 3 kids aged under 18?

Exoticmm:


I see your point but this would only make the thread too hard to read and unnecessarily long.
No matter how much people state their payment plans, people would still ask. Very counterproductive.

The thread is mainly for Visa application issues not for making a school choice. What you are requesting for will derail the objectives of the thread.

DrKhalifa276:
Hello, good morning

Please can anyone help, is there a provision to change the UK address on the TB Test certificate. A wrong address was filled and it was printed on the certificate?

Please help!
Thank you

You don’t need the address eventually. I would say didn’t waste money

Jaylo79:


Not really, the crowd has reduced drastically at TLS. So it’s very possible for them to respond in time now.

Very Urgent please

Very urgent please. Please how can I get to Transcorp Hilton
in from Berger in Abuja.
Transcorp Hilton, No.1 Aguiyi Ironsi St

Which one would have been faster Google map directions or Nairaland?

Kj40:

... yes... u can at least to be on the saver side. Check your date very well to avoid story

Be careful about doing this because what is meant as date of application is different from your biometric capture date.

Naturallyme:
we are in the same situation. Please send paid mail. i got a response from them yesterday. I am sure you did yours at TLS VI. I did mine as well 27th August. Still no show till date. I went to TSL VI lagos as well. They noted down my GWF number for follow up. today makes it the 6th week.

Same shoe August 26th One family member passport still hanging at DMC even though we have received decision mail since 23rd September

Royalsmaryam:


I am having this same issue. Up to 4 times now, I have entered my card details and debited up to 2,000 even without speaking to any agent. no agent is picking up. I can’t call them from Mtn line, it will say call failed. I hav spent up to 5k airtime on Glo, it says please wait after debiting me until they cut the call by themselves. Please how did you later speak to them? I have sent you a private mail also. I’m getting depressed�

Use skype

Cynosure95:

Good afternoon house... Please has anyone paid tuition fees above 12k pounds with Form A.. please how did you do it.. The bank i went to said they can only process for 15k dollars and fees i would like to pay for is about 20k dollars... Please i need your advice

Break the payment into 2.

IAMSYLVIA:


Please what bank

The scholarship was supposed to be a Nigerian funded scholarship but if the bank officer misinterpreted that it’s all well and good. Don’t expect that everywhere though

Adesquare6666:
Please house I need to pay my deposit but I don’t want to use the form A of a thing to avoid any delay in processing if cas so I plan to send NAIRA to my brother to pay for me…. He said he’s paying with credit card pleas does it work that way thanks

Already this semester is gone if you are still looking at getting CAS now. In my humble opinion do your form A get an unconditional offer and then defer to January intake. That gives you a lot of time to plan things out without stress

ndidibabe:
Thanks. Didn't expect that from access. I can print my GTB and Sterling Bank stamped account statement online. It's sad that I have already counted my 28 days with my access account...

No issues naaaa just print from the start date till date and get it stamped

Oyesquare10:


Do not pass me by please. This is second time I am quoting this

It depends on your pocket. But the best is to apply for everyone at the same time

justwise:


“ Essentially” you get caught and book thrown at up.

“ Essentially” that online business you think it’s hidden from the authority get you in hot water in no time.

Sometimes I read posts from people here trying to act smart I laughed .

Please @justwise and @sniperaz we mnes more enlightenment about this 20hrs work limits and the implications.
You guys should help us to get it clearly,
For example if one gets a job 6pm to 1am permanent night shift and it Pays around 12£ PEr hour.
What are the risks?

sniperaz:
Then declare your tax and pay accordingly. The question is for who was asking what the possibilities are. And my response is, the possibilities are endless.

Please I need that £40 per hour jobs. Please

ukapplicant:
Hello good people, on what number can one make a paid call to ukvi? Or

What procedures should be followed to make a paid call to ukvi?

Thanks

Use Skype to make the call to save some money

Menab:
Hello house, Anyone here who has experienced this,

Applied with my kids and I got my visa since last week.

Today, one out of the two kids was moved to VAC as today is 15 working day.

This after I got a non straight forward mail for my second child from pretoria

What could be happening?

I already buy tickets for everyone for Thursday evening.

Can I do a paid call or not necessary?

I am devastated right now

We have similar experience
We did biometric on the 26th of August. Priority for me as main applicant. the rest on standard
Got a NSF mail on the 1st of September
I didn’t get any Decision mail even while the decision was taken on the 21st.
I got collection mail on the 24th late friday.
We got decision mails for the rest 4 of the family on the 26th a Sunday.
On getting to TLS on the 27th only my passport was ready for collection.
Waiting continues till we got collection mails for the 3 kids very late on the 30th of September unfortunately the next day was a public holiday we have to wait till Monday October 4 to pick them.
We have been waiting but No collection mail for their mom.
We have all received the brp mail. You can imagine the harrowing frustrations.

fasmok:
Please house, I need assistance on how pay advance fees at the University of Bradford. I saw the payment method which is through flywire but the exchange rate is very high. Please how did you treat this. Kindly assist. Thank you.

Get the school account and pay with form A

Jaylo79:


This is a confirmation that they send refusal emails?

Can you snapshot the email? Because I know more that 20 people that used MFB and they have been granted there visas. As much as the Bank is listed on a the cbn site and you are sure they are aware of your transaction. Most times UKVI will contact the MFB by calling them.
Can you shed more light on this story

ocpaschal:
I don't have, and sadly I don't know anyone abroad that could assist with a pounds/dollar ATM card. Even here in naija, I don't know anyone. I have to search for someone with dollar ATM card in order to pay the UK student Visa because i just got the CAS on Thursday.

This is not rocket science my bro go to the bank and get one. You don’t need all these searching for someone here And there it’s your perogative. Go to the nearest bank any one of them can give you a dollar card

mohtunrahyor:

I give God all the glory
Thanks to everyone making impact on this platform, I really learnt alot which saved me from unnecessary spending/mistakes

Congratulations!

ritzzybaron:
Ha! That means the information I got is wrong.

I saw on Google that standard Visa is £348GBP.
So if Priority Visa is £220, then how much is the standard?

Thank you for your response.

Lol….. the priority is an added service. You will add the £220 to the standard visa fee

ocpaschal:
Is it possible for a parent (mother) of over 55yrs above in age to bring her children (20-30 age bracket) over to UK as dependents?

Dependent has to be below 18

ocpaschal:
Pls which of the banks in Nigeria with domiciliary/dollar accounts can give bank customers a DOLLAR ATM CARD?

Gtbank, FCMB, UBA

ocpaschal:
Pls o.... Is It true that there are some staff in UK embassy at Abuja that helps people to pay their student visa fees with either the staff's domiciliary pounds/dollar acct ATM card or foreign pounds/dollar account?

Why can’t you get the dollar ATM card yourself?

sniperaz:
No, you cannot and you should not.

FD's are not funds available to you. As the name suggests, its a FIXED deposit.

You are wrong here. I used fixed deposit and they have given me the visa.

Chpelu:
Anyone who did biometric on 21st september priority vi that got collection mail or application moved to VAC. I got delayed brp mail yesterday but my dependent partner and child did recieve brp mail. i put a call through ukvi and i was told that a decision has been made on my application but decision is yet to be made for my two dependent. Am so annoyed because i paid for priority for all family member and we applied together , i wonder why theirs where ommited. All application when tracked is showing with dmc. Pls did anyone who applied as dependent got the delayed brp email. or its just the student applicant

Same here I got my passport and visa . Still waiting for my dependents. Meanwhile we’ve all gotten the brp mail.
