Pls guys am new here and I need your advice.

Am about submitting my application but I need a clarification: Am going with my dependent. Is it ok to use my school address for the Accomodation pending the visa approval or I need to sort for Accomodation and use the Accomodation address instead of the school address since am going with my dependent.

Thanks

Most school accommodation does not cater for students with dependents. Infact my school stated it out in the mail I received from the accommodation team.
For safety purpose especially during interview questions, your best bet is to secure private accommodation outside the campus.
The VO expects you to know that you can not stay in school accommodation with dependents.

Please can you put us through this paga payment? It'll be very valuable.
Thank you.

Select Paga Verve.
Enter your name, phone number and email.
NB: If you have registered on Paga with ur phone number, pls do not use that phone number. The phone number is linked to your Paga account and as such the system will try to pick the fund from the Paga account associated with your phone number, hence the transaction will fail except if you have money in that Paga account.
In summary, If you have registered on Paga with ur phone number before, just use another phone number instead.
Type the details of the card and it will work.

I paid for IHS with my First Bank Verve Card and Visa with my sister's Access Verve Card and it went smoothly.

Good morning to all,

Is there a way to speed up the TB test appointment date in Lagos cause the date i was given is 22nd of September, 2020 which is quite far.

Kindly help ouut.

Call them as much as you can. If you are lucky they may give you a nearer date or they refer you to Abuja. It's that simple.

You should mention him where the form asks for such information.

But if your wife has custody you cannot take him along as a dependant.
If you declare your marital status as "divorced" or single, you don't need to provide any proof as that as you are not attempting to take along a partner as a dependant and there is consequently no need to prove any relationship to anyone.
I have similar question on this issue.
I am not married yet but will do before leaving the country. I plan to file for my wife to come as soon as possible.
Do I need to indicate am married while filling forms now?
If no, how do I inform concerned authorities that my status has changed and I now have a dependent I want to bring in?
I will be married before leaving.. How can I update my information to capture this important part so my wife can come in?

For self service TB Certificate upload, if you are given a referral letter to see a doctor after your scan for an issue that has to do with the chest scan but not associated with TB, can you present the certificate showing you don't have TB alone or one have to submit all other documents gotten from IOM.
Docs such as the referral letter, the data capture page generated by the IOM office and the other white colored print out?

Ok. You've basically got it covered, you're awaiting CAS, made your TB appointment and gotten your documents together. You can start filling your application form and update it with your CAS details before submitting after your funds have been held for 28 days.

Thanks .

I should start with TLS or uk.gov?

You can't book an appointment without submitting a visa application and you shouldn't submit your visa application without having had the required funds in your account for at least 28 days before you submit your application.

Thanks for your response @mimilyrics.
I am aware of the above and I don't intend to do any of such.

My question is what can I start to do now pending the maturity of my 28 days?

I paid my deposit on Monday. Awaiting CAS.
My tb test is on Monday and my 28 days mature on the 20th of this month.
Which registration can I start now?
Can I book for appointment date without payment?
In summary which of the registrations can I start while I wait for my 28 days to mature?

Please house I need urgent help.
Want to pay for my deposit now but the rates are not helping. Went to Stanbic bank yesterday, the rate was 508. I felt its too high compared to CBN rate.
Went to first bank today, its now 509.
Is this the official CBN pounds to naira rate for today or its the bank trading rate?

I need suggestions on bank with official CBN rate for Form A.

Hello Gurus,
Does anyone have an idea if TransferWise works in Nigeria.
A client in the UK wants to pay for my translation services and said he asked if he can do that through TransferWise. I really don't know how that works.
Has anyone received any fund from UK via TransferWise? Your inputs will be greatly appreciated.

Hi there,



I hope you are well and staying safe.



I wanted to write to you to thank you for accepting your offer to the University of Sunderland. We know these are very uncertain times, so I wanted to tell you a little bit about what the University will be doing in September. We are planning to run our Autumn intake as planned; however we will be taking a Hybrid approach to learning. This means that some of your classes will be online and some of them will be in person. This means you will still be allowed to come to the UK to study.



I wanted to provide you with a comprehensive checklist of all the things you need to do in order to get your CAS – you have probably done at least a couple of these things, but it’s good to be sure so you can check them all off.

can you share the comprehensive checklist with us?

CAS is usually processed out from 3 months before resumption.
If you pay your deposit and get an unconditional offer less than 3 months to your school's resumption , you'll get your CAS processed immediately payment is confirmed. CAS takes about 2-3 days after that for most schools.

If you pay your deposit and get an unconditional offer more than 3 months before your course, the school will able to process your CAS when it's 3 months or less to your course start date. The CAS process usually takes about 2-3 days for most schools.


Let's assume I pay my initial tuition deposit.. Can I carry around £6k pounds in cash for tuition.. Does schools accept cash payments?

Just call the IOM tb test office now. Was told the test fee is 57800 naira.
You can book any day (I guess work days) from the 21st of June.
The lady asked for the age of the person doing the test. I guess that determines ao much one will pay...
Seriously that's much o...
Didn't think I will pay that much at all...

Hi Bleep,
As an applicant to one of our courses, we understand you want to know what the start of your first term at Birmingham City University will look like if you join us for your studies, including how you would be taught and what safety measures we'll have in place.

This is our pledge to our students:

The majority of your scheduled course teaching throughout the 2020/2021 academic year would take place face-to-face on campus. For most courses, this will begin on 21 September 2020. Exact dates for your course would be sent to you if you enrol as a BCU student.
We will offer a flexible arrival across the first four weeks of term for those who need it, with international students allowed to start at any point until the 8th week of term to allow for any quarantine period imposed by the British Government. Should you need to take advantage of this flexible arrival, we will make sure you do not fall behind in your learning by providing you with online teaching which you will need to access at home.
Our focus is on high-quality, small-group (groups averaging 15) teaching in person, with some digitally-enabled content to ensure no student misses any learning.
All on-campus activity will be delivered using all necessary safety measures to keep students and their academic tutors and advisors safe, including social distancing, and use of personal protective equipment, as appropriate.
You would still be able to take advantage of the academic and social opportunities which University life offers – with on-campus spaces made available to clubs, societies and volunteering run by our Students' Union.
You would also have access to a comprehensive programme of individual support provided by a range of student services including the Centre for Academic Success (study skills), Graduate Plus (employability skills), our careers service and our library and learning resources.
Our mental health and wellbeing team, including seconded NHS staff, are here to support you throughout your time with us to ensure you achieve your full potential.

Our amazing National Health Service (NHS) has taken care of people from around the world during this global pandemic and will continue to do so. In addition to support from the University, NHS services are available to both domestic and international students.

You may have heard about international travel measures being introduced by the UK Government. International students should not worry; Government has promised it will work with universities to ensure students are welcomed to the UK and are supported on arrival.



During this mixed study style of online and traditional face to face learning... What kind of limit will be on work hours per week ? Still 20 hours.. ?

2. Is it safe or wise to enrol for professional courses at the beginning of one's study in the UK... Am thinking it may be wise to make use of the online learning period to also enrol and prepare for professional certifications....

Do you appear in person for this "appointment" ?
Is it a kind of physical interview ?
