Does anyone know any flight that does not require covid 19. I'm suppose to travel on the 3rd of January through Turkish airline.
I can't imagine going through the stress of covid19 test.

Seems the test is for those that their main destination is turkey. Not applicable to people in transit. You can call Turkish Airlines to confirm.

Mikey89:

Congratulations. Please what were the questions he asked. I remember you said your visa is expiring soon. Please when is it going to expire?

Brightingsus:

WHAT HAVE YOU COME TO DO

WHO INVITED YOU

HOW LONG ARE YOU STAYING

SHOW ME YOUR RETURN TICKET

WHERE WILL YOU BE STAYING

YOU KNOW THERE'S LOCK DOWN THERE AND YOU HAVE TO ISOLATE FOR 10DAYS

WHERE'S YOUR PL FORM

HOW WILL YOU GET TO DAGENHAM/WHAT MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION

MERRY CHRISTMAS!

Thank you sir.

Brightingsus:
Family member arrived this afternoon (Dec 23) on a BA0082 flight from Abj to London Heathrow, on a visitor visa, heading to a tier 4 location. POE allowed.

Thanks for the update. Please what are the questions asked at the POE?

Nchabuomo:
That's not really what I meant. With regards to quarantine the last information am aware of is that the duration has been shortened to 10 days.

People can decide to quarantine for the whole trip. Since you are just travelling to see a friend and I'm guessing you will be staying with them then it should be fine for you to stay indoors in their house for the 7days (duration of stay).

Ok sir. Thank you. Will just book 7days then because I don't mind staying indoors. Will just go out to do covid test after 5days.

Brightingsus:
If you would be in tier 4, you are pretty much stuck at home even after 'Test to Release' after 5 days. If not in tier 4, that means you are prepared to do private Covid test twice in the UK. You need one which test date and result date fall within 120 hours (5 days) prior to your departure from the UK back to Nig. The one you plan to do after 5 days would expire by the date you plan to leave back to Nig.

Pls ignore this. For some reason in my head I thought u wanted to come for 10 days

Ok sir. Am going to Manchester and Manchester is not on Tier 4. Please what did you said I should ignore?

Brightingsus:
Staying for 7 days means isolating for the duration of your stay.

Ok sir. But I plan to do test to release after 5days so I can leave quarantine on time because I need to quickly come back to my place of work. Just want to use my visa before it expires in March.

iyatrustee:
4 and a half wks. 2 for quarantine, 2 and half for vacation.

Thanks. Please what can you say about staying for 7days on my own case.

iyatrustee:
Sunday the 13th Dec. A week today. The stress was from Abuja Airport until Air france confirmed visitor visa's were allowed. The locator form had my address so they didnt ask where i was going to.

@graceodini, they asked and i told them. The border officer then informed me that isolation days had been reduced to 10days.

Ok. So please how long did you tell them you are staying? Thanks.

iyatrustee:
Came in thru Heathrow. Asked why i came with 3kids, if i had filled the locator forms, asked to see the form to ensure i filled in the details for my kids. I was stamped in thereafter.

Ok. So they didn't ask how long you are staying?

iyatrustee:
The first part is so true. I flew Airfrance on Sunday and I know how they stressed and delayed me in the name of trying to confirm if visitor visa's are allowed into the U.K

Please what were the questions asked at the POE? Did you flew in thru London?

Nchabuomo:
Normally if you are flying economy you might have to pay the price difference. For business class most airlines offer free date change.

But you will have to contact specific airlines to ask and be sure. You can spend your whole trip in quarantine at your friends house.

Did you mean I should book for 7days only as I can do covid 19 test on 5th day after which I can leave quarantine and come back to Nigeria on the 7th day. Though I learnt the website to book for test to release is not working as such but I will go with cash so my host can pay with his card for me.

Sego12345:
Won't you isolate or has the rule been scraped ?

You can go and do covid 19 test after 5days to leave quarantine.

Jbab:
You can book for 7days visit but with current issue on lockdown I don't think it's advisable for now.

Did you mean I should book for 7days ticket? I am going to Manchester and Manchester is not on lockdown. Planning to go in January though. Thanks for your response.

Good evening house. Please I want to ask if i book a 2weeks flight to the UK can I call the airline when I get to the UK and reschedule my return date to 7days instead of 2weeks? I am only going to visit a friend in Manchester. And please can I get a airline that will do free date change for my return? Thanks.

Pieaa:
Yes I did. Granted 2 years, travelled to the UK twice though

Okay.

Pieaa:
2 weeks

Did you later apply for 2years or 6months?

Good evening all. Please how much does ielts cost now. I have a colleague that want to register. Thanks. Please note he needs it for canada skilled worker processing.

kunzzy4me:

LagosismyHome:

Good morning all. Please how can one book Tuberculosis Test Appointment for UK Tier 4 visa. I have a brother who sent them an email since yesterday at ION but he hasn't been replied till now.

akayd:
Thank you. I thought as much tho. My investment is actually a Fixed deposit. SO what I did In the image I attached is to calculate my net salary for a year and add the total accrued interest on the Fixed deposit as the total amount of money I made in a year.

You only need to write the total amount you get in a year from your investment. I believe you already written how much you get paid monthly before this yearly income section. So you only need to write the total amount you are making yearly from the investment apart from your salary.

nothing so serious at poe, I was asked if am coming to meet my wife and I said yes. that's all and the officer collected my locator filled form.

stamped my passport with that of my kids.

Ok.

lightest:

Also, buy drugs like anti-biotics, anti malaria and so on to avoid stories that touch the heart.

In all, we are doing great here.

thanks to all and wishing u guys safe trip

Thank God for journey mercy. Please share your POE experience.

Rheminix:
nothing really, I initially applied for an Euss family permit, so I didnt experience any problem at all , they will just ask for locator form and passport,then they stamp you in.

Please did Turkish airline ask for covid 19 test result before boarding from Nigeria?

Pompomriser:
Hello, old can I get guidelines on how to apply for a refund of my assisted service that I didn't make use of.
I had an appointment for the 29 of September and paid for assisted service. Fortunately I got another closer date on 21 of September and did self service.
How do I go about getting a refund for the assisted service not used. Thanks great minds.

I got a refund for the Assisted Service I paid for in February. After the lockdown when I was rescheduling my appointment I was asked to pay another N11, 700 again for assisted service. So after I had my biometrics in August I filled a form on their website. I forgot where I clicked but I got a place where it says REQUEST A REFUND so I filled that form and REBATE FORM was sent to me afterwards and I filled it as outlined. After 2weeks I reminded them and my account was credited. Go to CONTACT US you will see REQUEST A REFUND there.

giselle237:
Nice. But she didn't get her visa with hotel app. She mentioned that she is visiting a friend who is covering her accommodation and feeding. So she is looking for a means to tally up her intentions cus she really wants to travel for only 6 days.
This is the matter she has been trying to solve.

Exactly! Though am thinking of going again in January because the visa expires in March 2021. Thank you sir.

UhnNah:
My advice : This is specific for your situation because i think you just want to travel and use your visa! Flying to uk and back is already an experience regardless of what you’d do there! I get it!

Book a ticket and hotel/hostel for 17 days! IF you’re asked about your plans, Tell them you’re here to relax and vacay! The 14 days isolation is fine by you and you’ll use the extra 3 days for sightseeing after your isolation! This makes sense!

If you have someone you’re staying with,book 17 days ticket (Same story as above) you can leave anytime even before 14 days! Reschedule your ticket to an earlier date and return home!

Pls make sure you really isolate and follow the rules,you might get away with things,but it’ll ruin things for others!

Good luck!

Thanks. This idea also make sense but it means I will have to pay extra fees for date change if I want to come back earlier than scheduled. Though thinking now of going in January by God's grace.

Vasco1dagama:
oga, just take enough leaf from work that will cover 25 or 30 days .
the possibility of getting 6 days return flight is quite slim at the moment.
Am quite sure you can not get a return flight within that range of 6 days .
I leave further explanation and objections to the gurus in the building.
I no be expert ooo

Thanks so much for your input. My visa is going to expire by March 2021 but I am thinking of going in January now so I can have enough time.

Vasco1dagama:
for example
flight booking ( departure)2/ 10/ 20
return flight (22/10/20.

sometimes you may not get a return flight for 22 but any return flight you get from 22 - 30 is ok
I. e. departure 2/10/ 20
return 26/10/20
or 27/10/20
or. 28/10/20
or 29/10/20
or 30/10/20
you have time to flex oyibo chicks well we'll.

Okay. But I mean can I make just 6days flight booking just to use the visa and come back so I will self isolate for the 6days then return to Nigeria.
