Mannymanny:
I’m for Stanbic too… how lomg did it take pls?

Got debited yesterday
519 @Stanbic IBTC

Abeg what's the next step from here?

@duchess?

Please say what you know

Opening and closing balances as required by the eco don't appear in statements generated from mobile app.

I have experienced it with Zenith bank so YOU DELETE WHAT YOU WROTE AND STOP MISLEADING PEOPLE!

DuBooVay:
DELETE THIS AND STOP MISLEADING PEOPLE

Stanbic IBTC has another option apart from the CBN forex allocation.
They call it I&E.

Has anyone used this?
Got this information when I contacted their customer service

You are right

Statement generated from mobile app or online banking platforms usually don't have those opening and closing summaries.

Better to walk into the bank

Ayowolebami:
The email states that your statement does not have a closing balance clearly stated on your statement. That might be an issue cause ordinarily, a statement should have an opening and closing balance clearly stated.

Is your statement mobile app generated one or you walked into the branch to request for a stamped statement? I’d advise you request your statement from your branch. That way, it has the required details and crystal clear for an ECO to easily understand.

I think you can just generate a new payment slip and upload

You have to do so before it expires

Skin90:
Anyone here who his payment timeline from flywire has expired before payment?

What steps did you take after it expired?

Thanks

@duchess please explain this to me.

I'm building my proof of funds and it will mature by June 28

When should I apply for Visa?
quote author=duchess90 post=113643650]Hello,

I know it can be quite confusing but I agree with others have said. All documents including POFs should be ready (altleast 28days) before application is made.

Here is a screenshot from Gov.UK website on this anology, it explains better.

Please I want to ask, where does reference letter and appointment letter for study gap apply?
During visa application and processing or during CAS issuance from school?

@duchess @Gloriyah @justwise

SPARKAMANI:
But this is wickedness from ukvi , after waiting for 5 weeks and 3 days for june intake , applied for biometrics since april, i got an email from Sheffield 2 days ago to provide additional documents for study gap . I immediately sent them my employment letter and even a reference letter from my current place of work. My question now is will i have to wait for another 6 weeks ?? as they did not state in the mail it will take more time, they only just requested for additional document. If so why wait until the 5th week to mail me for additional documents. I hope they honor the 6 weeks , because my school resumed monday. I am so tired . � . Any idea how long this wait will take?

Some of them are really slow

Just got my offer from Northampton today.
Application that I did since January

Just spread your net and apply to more schools
Also timing is a factor.
Most people for September started applying in January.

omoobaijebuife:
Can anyone recommend a university that attend to September admission application faster? I am tired of waiting for the universities I applied for to do masters. Each time I send a reminder letter they will replied they will they back to me they have backlog of application. Please help me. I will appreciate any advice or if we have agents of UK university in Nigeria that can help.

I find UWE September intakes tire for this thread, I no see.

One school I'd have really loved to be in.
They have brought their payment deadline forward.
My bank never still debit me

Make we de look first

larrysax:
While I was able to get information about the travel process from this thread, I still struggled to network or get real-time updates for people in my school (UWE, Bristol) as there were barely any. I however intend to change that and hope that it would help anyone in a similar dilemma. I have convinced the NSS (Nigerian Students' Society) at UWE to open a Nairaland page to help students coming to UWE with this. The page references this thread for all vital and general information and further welcomes questions specific to UWE. You can simply look up UWE Bristol or NSSUWE on Nairaland, I am sure it will come up.

Once again, all the best to everyone!

If you guys want an early date for TB test, try the Abuja IOM center.

Before I booked mine, they had plenty available dates

Adazeal:
Please, which branch did you use? My sis has been waiting for more than 3 weeks now with Stanbic IBTC

Do you mean one has to still submit hardcopy documents to the bank they're using for Form A?

Imnaknus:
My application was approved within 24hours. It's been 4 weeks of waiting to be debited. Just be sure to submit your documents to the branch you selected on the portal. After that you can join us on the queue.

Submitted Form A yesterday

Today, it is at ADB Reviewer stage

Stanbic IBTC

Sorry, I meant ADB Disbursement Reviewer stage
I think they are fast

Thank you very much

Thank you

Gloriyah:
Using fly wire’s details for form A doesn’t mean the process would be fast, the number of days stated on fly wire is the normal duration an international payment should go through.

You’re using the authorization document as invoice and you will include the reference while filing your name or include it in your authorization letter to your bank.

Please what did you submit as invoice using flywire?
Is it that letter of authorisation from them ( that's the first page)?
Also, using flywire, did your payment go through within the days flywire prescribed to receive your fees?

Was there anywhere you quoted that reference number they remarked as being important on your form A application?

alongetayo:
Pls any help on this? Can we pay through flywire?

Have they started giving admission?
Called them two weeks ago and they said they just finished with May batch

akankemi1:
Any university of Northampton student here? Is CAS out for September batch?

@homesinabuja
@justwise

Please help.

University of Lincoln didn't send any invoice.
Would the offer letter suffice for it for my form A application?

University of Lincoln
3000 deposit
Nine monthly installments

Ibodlauren01:
Hello everyone.
Please I really need help from everyone here about studying in UK.
I need a help on any institution within England that accept a deposit fee of 1000 and at most 2000 and also have means of spreading the rest of the payment to atleast 6 times.
Thanks

UWE my UWE!

Got an Unconditional offer here
Was already planning to go ahead with them when they started sending mails on fee deadline being 31st of May
Plus telling me to show POF before CAS.
So they are still giving admission after telling me they cannot guarantee a place for me if my payment arrives after May 31st.

Las las, all man de hustle
They want to use fear of missing out to collect my money

Congratulations Madam
I'm sure you'd have a great time studying there

sniperaz:
Lets not bicker back and forth on this. The point is that, its possible to make genuine mistakes on these official documents.

My school didn't send an invoice

I only have an email from them with an Unconditional offer stating my fees

I don't know if I can attach that email as invoice.
Have written to them but no response

Afmaag123:
Use it alongside your school invoice

Exactly

Raise the flywire advice by selecting the currency you want to pay in.
In this case, select pounds
Then proceed to tradesystem portal

But I also want to ask, is the flywire advice the same as invoice as requested by tradesystem portal?

Afmaag123:
You are supposed to raise a flywire advice then fill the E form A on the portal. Attach your docs and go submit the AF number in the bank.
But Flywire is predominantly used in Canada. Supposed u r using flywire.

How can I search for info on a particular thread on nairaland?
Once I type search, it searches the entire nairaland website

Adejumoke00:
Congratulations � � �.. This will sure be my testimony very soon �


First time posting! It would have been a disservice if after all I have learnt here, I don't give back.
So firstly God never fails!
We picked our our visas today
Family of 5 ( oldest kid 15 and youngest 3)
Started the process September last year and was originally planning for January but school deferred admission to June it has been a very long journey.
Biometrics done 8th of April at ikeja
Documents submitted for main applicant was CAS, waec certificate, university certificate,c.v
Tb test, marriage certificate, pictures of family and of cos POF.
I have 20 year study gap, though I have taken several short courses including 2 short course done in the UK a few years ago.
No Nsf mail received.
Lessons I learnt is no short cut with this thing, be ready to read and research, I spent a lot of time searching for information both here and on Google and of the UKVI site ( information there is very robust). For nairaland, I would use keywords to search for whatever I needed and got quite a lot of answers without having to ask questions. I really must thank the moderators.
God bless grant us all our heart desires. (Amen)

No known deadline for school fees

Even with flywire, you can still do Form A.
That's the option I'm exploring

onerandomchick:
Heyyy, are you going to University of Lincoln

Please let me know how you go about this Flywire ish, is there also a deadline to when school fees needs to be paid

Please when booking for TB test with IOM, what Nigerian physical address should I fill?

It's requesting for the address on my passport and I can't remember what I used

2. What UK address applies?
Want to fill my school address

3. I'm applying for Form A and don't have any invoice from my school
Just my offer letter which is an email and not downloadable showing my fees.
What should I upload at the invoice area?
Though I have filled a form with flywire showing how much I want to pay.
Would this serve as invoice?

Try another browser

Had issues with chrome yesterday too

elyte89:
Please house..I tried registering on d tradesystem site using a chrome browser, however when I input my bvn and I click continue, waiting for d otp to be sent,it keeps rolling wout any result.please what can I do?

Please what did you fill as beneficiary country?

On the tradesystem portal, contry list stops at Bermuda meanwhile I want United kingdom

It wouldn't allow me type it either and would generate lists beyond Bermudas

DwayneChuks:
Applied 4 days ago with UBA. Nothing yet o

Coming from UBA just now and was informed that the queue for Form A is now very long

Don't know if the guy is saying it to obtain me or what but has anybody used UBA recently?

What's your experience?

Please forgive my ignorance o

Now we may not travel together but he'd definitely join me may be one or two months after depending on when his Visa is issued.

With this application I'm making, does it mean both of us have to take the test on the appointment date?

fatee2000:
Yes, it matters. The TB test lasts 6 months, so if he’s not traveling with you and it expires before he applies for visa, then it’s a waste of time and money.

Please how did you pay for IHS and Visa considering the spending limit on dollar cards?

OmichaelO:
1. $904~ for IHS and $465 for visa
2. Didn't use form A
3. Card transaction limit for Dom card ? I don't know. But for naira card, yes! $20 a month
4. I used UBA

@homesinabuja,

Do you know if university of Lincoln requires POF before CAS?
