You need to compress the PDF size of your bank statement or else it might not upload as it exceeds 5mb, they are free software online to do that

YModulosGodSon:
Good day everyone. I need a little clarification pls. I applied for a UK visit visa and just completed the payment process. Among other documents to upload on VFS is the Proof of Application document but I don’t know which exactly it is…

1. So, which document is the proof of application document please?

2. My bank statements also happen to be 6mb each in size, the guideline says each doc shouldn’t exceed 5mb….is there a way to reduce quality of a pdf doc or can I simply upload like that pls?

Thank you

I had to send someone to their office in Ikeja to get a tracking number because there was none in the courier receipt

They used GIG logistics, we didn’t wait for them to call, immediately it delivered to GIG Benin office via tracking my mum went there to collect herself

Oghosagracely:
Sis please what courier brought your mum'spassport?

Did you contactVFS before it got to your mum?

From your writeup, it seem only 3 days between collection mail and actually courier delivery, mine is 7 days already with no means of tracking passport. Did they call her or text her before the courier got to her house?

They didn’t collect the checklist from my mum as well, just the courier payment receipt was given to her so it’s fine

dubaiprince:
Please may I check with those that have attended appointments at VFS. Did they collect your signed checklist? The checklist says it should not be signed till you get to the appointment. My sister went for her appointment yesterday and she is worried vfs did not collect it from her. Though we uploaded the checklist but it was the unfilled and unsigned version. Also, she was expecting to get a slip to be presented for passport collection like we normally get with TLS but got nothing.

With TLS, the application most times get transferred to UKVI on the date of appointment but VFS application tracker has shown no movement.

I know I have said a lot here but just want to be sure our experience is in line with others and we have not left out any process at the appointment.

After we got the tracking number and it arrived their office in my mum state of residence she went there to pick it up herself but you can wait for their call, they will definitely call you

momomufasa:


So did you had to call GIG Logistics or they later called?

41,400

giselle237:
wait??
They are using GIG logistics now? How much did you pay pls?

It was very frustrating, there was no tracking number on the receipt and I didn’t know their courier partner, I had to send someone to their center to find out what was happening, that’s when they wrote out the tracking number and said they use GIG logistics. It took four days to get the passport

momomufasa:

In this same situation, how did the courier get in touch?

Adekanyin39:
Has anyone experienced this before, or currently? I have been unable to make an appointment with on vfs, Error message every single time we get to the payment part, it has been 4 days of trying and nothing has changed. Any help would greatly be appreciated. Those anyone rendered appointments service, at this point we have used all the computers at home and it’s still same prompt

Tosinnnn:

It’s actually my mum’s visa, I stated she will be travelling for 2 months and my husband and I will be sponsoring her

b31164707:
Congratulations! How long are you visiting and what amount did you put on the application as your total budget (including flights and accommodation)? Would you also mind sharing a range for your disposable income? I believe this will help guide prospective applicants. Thanks.

Thank you. November 21st

cashmyles:

Good day all,

I am planning to use my rental contract as part of the supporting documents for my mum’s visit visa application. However, I have a concern regarding the validity of the contract. The tenancy agreement technically expired last year in October, but I have continued residing in the same property under the same terms without a formal contract renewal from my landlord.

Will the expiry date on the contract be an issue or is there any additional documentation I should provide to confirm my ongoing tenancy? I look forward to your responses 🙏

deeplow:
Thanks. Not me actually, my mum-in-law. I am already in the uk

Please what documents did you submit for her application?

Hi everyone,
Please I need some advice regarding the visa application process for my mum, which I plan to submit in November. The visa will be fully sponsored by me and my spouse. Currently, she is not working and is financially supported by us.

As of two days ago, her account had a balance of ₦590,000 from her savings, but one of my siblings accidentally transferred out ₦400,000.
Given this situation, I have a few questions: Should I start building her account balance again for the next three months (although December will be a bit far as I would have prefer her to be here closer to my delivery) or would a bank statement covering two months (September-November) suffice? or can I include an explanation for the transfer in her cover letter?

I really look forward to your responses. Thanks in anticipation.

Thank you so much for your response 🙏

Good day everyone
Please i plan to invite my mum over very soon and I wanted to please ask a few questions

- if myself and hubby plan to be the sole sponsor do we need to include her bank statement in the application?

- If we are to include her bank statement, please what’s the range of amount you think should be there as she is not trading or working at the moment, the money that goes into her account it’s her monthly allowance from me and hubby (100k-150k)

- what can I use as home ties as she currently does not have any property or been employed but my younger one is still in Uni

Please I very much look forward to your responses 🙏🙏 thanks in advance

Good afternoon everyone, please can I pick up my passport myself even if I had paid for courier during biometrics, I await your responses, it’s quite urgent as am nervous, didn’t get BRP Mail

Good day all, am the Main Applicant, I want to know if it’s compulsory to declare my spouse previous visa refusal on our visa application?

dduchess90:
Hello

Yes they do if you had to take out time to attend presentations, study and pass any exams for the accreditation

Cheers

Thanks for your response, I appreciate

Please people, wanted to find out if CIPM and NIM Certificates counts for covering study gap for visa application

Look forward to response �

Good evening all, am considering to ask for a refund of cost of living sent to the university I gained admission in Norway due to some reasons, those any know how long this might take?

uchechukwu007:


So it is safe to say that if stavenger doesn’t issue you your admission at the second week of May...one can go ahead with other plans in other countries

I received my admission notice yesterday from University of Stavanger - Business Administration (Strategy and Leadership)

CuteTj:

I guess you are the one that mailed me. I have replied. In addition to what I said, student visa fee is like 280k while your spouse will be almost 640k depending on exchange rate fluctuations.

Good day Sir, trust you are doing great? We like to know if there is a possibility of moving same time with my family upon securing admission as a student. How did your’s go? Did you wait after one year for family migration or you moved same time with your spouse?

BA! BA! BA!

Jesus has done it!

My Princess arrived this evening

Bye team November
