Why share a link from 2017/2018 to address this. Not fair information.
- Rules have changed - A higher % of applications from Nigeria are scrutinized.
If it worked for you or someone you know does not mean it will for someone else. There are probably people here that did it, got denied and are not open about it.
Requester has stated that funding will not be a problem for him/her. Pay priority or super priority and keep funds until a decision is made.
No one holy pass. Bend rules, don't break them.

Hi, Typically, if you are an unregistered business owner, you are operating in the INFORMAL segment (business area). You should search for programs under entrepreneurship. That will be more relatable. - It may help to add a compact business proposal/idea (A brief) and possibly how you intend funding it when you return. - If you use an app for your sales over the years, you may attach a screenshot. Note this does not take away the need to meet the student visa criteria - CAS, POF and SELT. With google, type your enquiry as you would say it, weird but it works. See one I did below from your enquiry. best uk master's degree for business ownersOne of the links: https://www.mastersportal.com/study-options/268927062/entrepreneurship-united-kingdom.htmlAnother link gives better insights: https://www.topuniversities.com/student-info/careers-advice/do-you-need-masters-degree-become-entrepreneur, These are just suggestions.

Hi, Think you should stick with documents already submitted. As much as I do not think the school sends any admission documents, just the CAS, its best to err on the side of caution (and truth) Thanks for the kind words. Great week ahead. Proppie: Whenever you say things, I take a pen and jot down... I'm glad you're here, honestly...
Please, do you think it is OK if the CV you're attaching is slightly edited, with little additions and subtractions, compared to the one you submitted to the school for conditional offer?... Also, Will the school be sending the documents you used to support your application for admission to UKVi? |

Dumebi213: Thanks for this, I don't have much study gap as I graduated in 2019 and I am yet to be called for an interview (tomorrow will be the 2nd working day after my biometrics, I'm hoping not to be called for one though) but I'll take all this under consideration especially the part about knowing your school's area |

I still think its how one presents their application really and the ECO reviewing the application (key factor). I have a 21 year formal study gap; my visa was issued 2nd day after biometrics, no interview. I made a 360 from my 21 year career too, returning to my BSC field. A study gap is not necessarily idle years, but one is not 28 or 30 either. - Detach the mentality of 'its a point based system' - Do more (useful more) - Attach a detailed CV - Make a short explanation under additional information - I attached a letter of recommendation from the body I have volunteered with over the years (my program is in health and social care) My friend was interviewed because it was his second Masters program (first one was in Nigeria). Another colleague was asked the address of her university and address of her main site of study?? She told the interviewer she did not memorize both addresses but had it printed out and would map her journey a least a week before arrival. She is done with her program now. There is nothing to an interview, just confidence, data and google. Go back to your SOP like someone stated earlier today. There are numerous resources on youtube on how to beat these questions. The trick is, from the moment you receive your CAS, start preparing for a UKVI interview. The requester will be fine. Dumebi213: From what I've read, the reason you could get called for an interview is if the caseworker has not been convinced that you are a genuine student through your application, one of which could be the gap between your application and previous studies, they need to know why you are choosing to go back to school after such a long time and what you have been doing since then, basically career progression. 16 years is a lot of time. |

Hi, Interviews are discretionary at best. Gap years are not a major issue for the UK as I learn it is for Canada and some others. What I will advise though, your program should be linked to either your BSC or current job/career. Fabulux: Hello everyone, Is there any one that had their first degree in 2005 that has gotten visa without any interview from UKVI? Hope study gap won't be an issue. Cos I had my BSC in 2005.

4,000 USD or 2,880 GBP (that’s it’s equivalent). Babababy: For context, you cant get PTA for your travel if you buy a one way ticket.You and your partner can access 8000 pounds at CBN rate, that being said you also have justification to buy one way if you choose to, you program allows you work for two years after study and technically you cant get any return ticket for that duration(3 years). ponder on your options |

TheGuyFromHR: This has been thrashed out before. To repeat, the word "dependant" used in the UK visa context, does not mean someone who is financially dependent on the primary visa applicant. It means someone whose visa application is connected to/associated with that of the primary applicant.
In other words, your husband is your dependant for the purposes of this visa application, and it has nothing to do with who is funding who. |

This is okay as long as the balance was sufficient even after the debit transaction was made. Transactions are allowed, just don't fall short with 'ANY DEBIT' ........... not day. duolu2021: Some incites please!!!!
I submitted my application in the morning and printed my statement in the afternoon of the same day (28th of July) for assisted service/ upload at TLS.
Statement was for a period of 29 days (29th June to 28th July) with the first transaction been a debit on the 30th of June with a last transaction also a debit on the 28th of July.
Should I be worried that I have a statement which closing balance reads on the same day of my application submission?
Or should I present same statement used to obtain CAS which was for 28days (28th June to 26th July) with first transaction on the 30th of June and last transaction on the 26th of July, both debits.
Kindly note that account is a Nigerian Dorm in GBP |

For # 1, Its a non- issue. Same happened with mine. Details will be update. When you get there, complete the initial online registration with new passport details. # 2. Someone here will help. My school did not request for POF for CAS. Malwem: Hello, thank you for all your contributions. Please I have 2 questions;
1. I did my TB test with IOM in June with my old passport (which will expire in August), but I have a new passport now with a different number (obviously) which still states my previous passport number. Do I need to apply for a re-issue of my TB Test Certificate with the new passport number?
2. My school requires POF before they can issue CAS, I have my 28 days Proof of fund to cover my living expenses, plus my tuition balance (I'm paying 75% of my tuition as deposit) but the total sum in this account doesn't cover my dependant's living expenses, only mine. Can I use a different POF to apply for CAS and use a different one when I'm applying for Visa?
Your response would be appreciated. Thank You |

Agreed. I work with a bank. Dollar sale for Visa fee, IHS and PTA with no return ticket not included. Until CBN advises these items by means of a circular, no bank will do it. Embassies and airlines are the major targets for this recent change. Emefiele added that there was evidence of prevailing ownership of several BDCs by the same promoters to procure multiple FX from the apex bank.
https://www.thisdaylive.com/index.php/2021/07/28/cbn-releases-200m-to-banks-to-quell-fx-speculation/
He said, “Several international organisations, embassies, patronise BDC through illegal forex dealers to fund their institutions. We will deal ruthlessly with Nigerian banks that deal with illegal BDCs and we will report foreign organisations patronising them.”hustla: And there's 'amongst others' clearly written on the CBN document |
