Thank you very much.
I have been trying paid mail since last week but payment keeps failing... Maybe I will try the call instead now

If you have someone in the UK, Ask them for help.
It's quite easy from the calls to go through from there

Nobody got visa today?


Is there anyone here who did biometrics in November like me who's still waiting for visa? Or am I the only one left?

Have you done paid calls or paid emails?

Dear.....


Regarding Visa Application:.....
For:

We are unable to make a decision on your application within published visa processing times. For up-to-date information on processing times, visit https://www.gov.uk/government/collections/visa-processing-times

Do not contact UK Visa and Immigration, we will contact you if we require more information.

Please be assured that we will continue to progress your application to make a decision as soon as possible.
Your visa application may take longer to process, if for example:

• the information in your application is not accurate or requires further consideration
• you need to provide further evidence, for example evidence of funds
• your supporting documents need to be verified
• you need to attend an interview
• further information is required on your personal circumstances (for example if you have a criminal conviction)
• UKVI is experiencing increased visa demand

Please what should I do?
I received this mail on 20 Jan, I did my biometric on 2 Jan.
So far I have only received a mail from VFS that my documents has been sent to UKVI and this now

This is exactly what you'll do.
Don't fold your arms and allow them to use you till your university withdraw CAS.
Have someone do paid calls & emails on your behalf twice next week.
Tell them to prioritize your application, that your university has resumed and that you have invested a lot into this.
You can even tell a lie and let them know that your study leave from work has been approved and someone else is resuming 1st week in February.
Appeal to their sentiment, so you'll know if they want to schedule you for an interview or request for further documents.

Hello house. I've gone through the recent posts on the thread and can't find a case peculiar to mine. So please can you advice on how to go about my application:

- I'm employed by an European country but I opted to become a contractor because Deel exchange rates were really low. I was losing like half of my salary because they were using bank rate then.
- To be signed as a contractor, I had to register a company which I did. But I haven't even done anything via the company. I have been to the Schengen region 3x (France, Denmark & Spain have issues me visa) and I have never used the company details I registered. My company always wrote a letter of introduction stating I am employed as a contractor. Do you suggest I stick to the company invite and select 'employed' when completing the form?
- My Company pays me in Euros and thr amount I get each month isn't consistent because of exchange rate. So I don't really know how to answer how much you earn monthly question.
- Still on salary, I'd normally exchange half of my salary to naira to cater for my monthly expenses and just send the rest to Rise ($ wallet), or Bamboo (stock investment) or Piggyvest (naira if I have excess spill over from exchange rate). How do I explain why I am not moving all my salary into that one account I use?
- I also try not to put too much money in my naira account so I don't spend any how. The amount I exchange is usually just the exact that covers my monthly expenses or maybe surplus by 500k. Won't the Visa officer think I don't have enough money to cover the trip?

Thank you as your share your thoughts

Firstly, indicate how much is on your offer letter and explain all these information on additional information box.

Secondly, since you have not used the CAC certificate for anything, I'll advise you stick to stick to company employment.

Lastly, I'll advise you attach the bank statement you usually move funds from to those investment accounts.
It would suffice to print the statement (if possible) from piggyvest & the stock sheet.

Good evening everyone .
Please I want to find out when do we start counting for the processing time . Is it from the day of biometrics or from the day we receive the email that it has arrived the DMC.
I did my biometrics on the 10th of January but didn’t get the email that it has reached the DMC till 15th of January. So I am confused as to when to start counting from .
Thank you so much .

Standard visa takes 15 working days.
You start counting from the following day you did capturing at VFS.
If after 15 working days, you did not get a visa, you can do a paid call

Hello everyone.. I just found this page and I hope I get the clarification I need for a visit visa

How can one proof they have a business in Nigeria what document do they need for a visit visa.

How can they show or proof they have children in Nigeria or should it just be stated on the letter

Thank you.

Hello, UKVI have started tracking if a business is active on CAC portal. Verify it before you submit it.
Also, have you got a business account (bank statement), if yes, print 4months and attach it with your savings account.
It can also serve as a proof of home ties.

To proof relationship with your children, attach their birth certificate & one family picture
