Yes

wrong course level

So you mean the CAS covers this and the ECO would understand that it was an error?
duchess90:
Hello

Do you mean wrong course level?

There is no harm in providing a cover letter but then again it is already captured in your CAS and the ECO has access to it

Cheers
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 8 by Happyfellow147: 11:35am On Aug 08, 2022
@duchess

I picked the wrong course while filling my visa application.
I want to write a cover letter to draw the attention of the ECO to it as I haven't uploaded my documents.

What do you suggest?
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 8 by Happyfellow147: 11:33am On Aug 08, 2022
Abuja dates available from the 18th right now
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Happyfellow147: 6:11pm On Aug 05, 2022
@duchess

I read your response to a lady who said she only mentioned her husband in the spousal information section and didn't include him as a financial dependant since he doesn't depend on her financially and isn't also travelling with her just yet.

I filled my application today in the same vein and I hope this doesn't affect anything when I eventually want to apply for hubby
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Happyfellow147: 5:38pm On Aug 04, 2022
Hello people,

in my visa application form, I filled a separate correspondence address from my main address, does it affect anything?
I also used Nigeria as my issuing authority for national ID.
Is this correct?

Please I need assurance and clarification from you people o

On the other hand, because I no wan hear say dem count the days e no complete, I'm considering waiting till 8th Aug to print and apply.

I'm just caught between fast tracking my application and printing on friday or just wait till monday
My worry is the unavailability of dates for biometrics

Go with Zenith Bank.
You can save better
You have the opportunity of being converted
It's close to your home
You may meet customers who you can talk to about your job search

The permanent job would pay you less
You save less
Jump buses with the attendant risks and stress
Finally, there's no guarantee you won't be sacked whether permanent or contract

Short story
I have been in Ireland since 4 years on study and post study visa. My last visa renewal took so long but I was kind of depressed without my family so I just came back home to process student visa for us all. Today visa granted while Ireland also will be sending my resident permit in few days.
I choose uk over Ireland not anymore will I go back Ireland cos they don't have family package like uk for master students

Why is the IOM website not working?

Tried several times now yet nothing.

Can I just send a mail?

Test is for my dependant
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Happyfellow147: 5:36pm On Jul 19, 2022
For Form A, I applied with Stanbic Ibtc Olu Obasanjo branch PH.

Application was reviewed same day, moved to disbursement the next day.

I kept calling head office (customer service) and was debited after about 20 days or so ( can't remember now)

I don't know anybody in the bank.


However, I feel the pressure is much now on the different banks plus shortage of Fx
The number of Nigerians leaving now is alarming and so the fx queue would naturally be long.

If you can bear it, buy from black market

Please what can I do about dates? My school sent an email that the Lithuanian embassy in Turkey does not have available slots for Nigerian students.

They are suggesting I get a tourist visa into any schengen country, come into lithuania and process residence permit

What do you guys think?

I feel this is a complex arrangement whose outcome is not guaranteed

Thank you very much dear duchess

Others can contribute too
duchess90:
Hello

It is the same process/requirements on POFs for MAs and Dependants

1. POFs are submitted at the same time (either same account or different for MA and dependant)

2. POFs are submitted but the MAs POF or evidence of expenditure should be available incase it is requested,this is to ensure funds are not recycled

3.The above applies here

I hope it answers,others can add please

Cheers
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Happyfellow147: 5:45pm On Jul 12, 2022
@duchess, I saw a response you gave above to someone who wants to apply for dependants after four months.

I do not quite understand what is required as POF if
1. MA and dependant are applying together ( say the same day)

2. MA and dependant are applying weeks apart (with MA still in Nigeria or MA's application still undergoing processing

3. MA applying for dependants after arriving UK.

Can you please help?
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Happyfellow147: 2:49pm On Jul 08, 2022
Truth is, some people who got offers for this September applied in January.

Depending on availability of slots in your program, you may still get a place

Good evening good people.
I just discovered that my usable balance is lower than my book balance. For those that have gone through this process, how long does it usually take before they actually debit me?

Also discovered that they used 498.0444 Naira to 1 GBP

Yes
CBN rate applies
haywhy80:
I have done that. Now, I need to do the following:

Complete my bank transfer outside of Flywire’s platform via online banking, telephone transfer or by visiting your local bank branch in person.

Does CBN rate apply here?

TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Happyfellow147: 6:50pm On Jun 24, 2022
All I did was call customer service after my form got to disbursement stage.

First, I wrote them stating my deadline and the urgency of processing my payment.
They gave me a call back and introduced the I&E option asking if I was interested.
Seeing that the rate is almost same with CBN rate, I asked that they go ahead.
Then I continued following them up with calls.
That's all I did
Mannymanny:
How do I use the I&E Fx option pls? Mind if I mail you?

Don't choose Naira option

Choose the currency of your school

I don't understand again. This flywire rate is same as black market.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Happyfellow147: 3:55pm On Jun 24, 2022
Please check your school payment page
There should be guide on how to use Flywire from Nigeria
My school has that
Alternatively, google Flywire payment from Nigeria
You'd find useful information

How to navigate flywire deadline

Option 1: Call the customer support for extension
Option 2: Generate a new reference and replace the lapsed one on your tradeportal
Option 3: Do nothing. The customer support staff I spoke to said it doesn't really matter that once your payment goes through, you can contact them and they'd internally update the reference for you
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Happyfellow147: 3:44pm On Jun 24, 2022
Keep calling customer service

I was practically calling them every two days

Use the I &E Fx option
Mannymanny:
