You don't need to pay. You can follow up with your contact, if you have one, in the office, or go to records office and speak with them

Chances of upgrade of your Listening from 6.0 to the preferred 8.0 is next to 0. I would suggest you study harder and register for the exam. Best of luck

From tls

Brightingsus:
Dear Sir/Madam,

Sheffield does not really send a decision email. TLS mostly does. To know if Sheffield has made a decision on your application, you would have to use your GWF no and track it on their website. Tracking shows decision made before TLS sends out the decision email. So expect no decision mail from Sheffield anymore. Once TLS sends you collection email, which is usually within/after 24 hours of decision mail, go with your credentials.. Finish.

Jarus:
I'm sure you didn't tell them over the phone that it is priority. Otherwise they woul have told you it will be within 2/3 days. The 10 days is the standard answer, for standard service.

They said same to me but when I reminded them it was priority they said within 2/3 days.

Jarus:
If I hear from them on Friday, challenge is if I will be able to pick it same day. Although my office is 10 minutes walk from the visa office in VI.

My flight is Sunday night.

Jarus:
Applied Friday the upper week(i.e September 29). Gatecrashed submission same day (paid for walk-in).

Got receipt acknowledgement email on Monday, the Independence public holiday.

Jarus:
I called them now. Told they had made a decision, but can't say whether they had dispatched my passport to Lagos.

Told priority takes 2/3 days.

Jarus:
Yay, now getting worried o.

After acknowledgement email that my application has been received at Sheffield on Monday last week, no "decision email" yet.

This is the 7th working day after acknowlegement of receipt o.

I did priority service.

My travel date is this week Sunday (15th), meaning I have just 3 working days.

Now getting worried o.

Hoping I wont regret not following justwise's advice that I should do super priority.

ekpotek:
If there is an inflow and outflow of N400 - N700 consistently from both your acccounts, its okay. You can submit both accounts and explain the inflow that is not salary related with documentation. As this is your second visa application, your past visit will also count.

Brightingsus:
I am getting confused with the terminology. You mean, you borrowed money from someone or you lent money to someone

ekpotek:
You definitely have a hard time convincing the ECO that this is not money lodgement. Unless there is an outflow showing the N700K leaving your account and coming back within the 6 month bank statement.

ekpotek:
If you have a closing balance of over 1M. I will advice that you remove the 700K to another account. Otherwise you will need to explain the lodgement with documents to ECO

justwise:

Yes if you are going for AR then they don't have to reissue the CoS, its only necessary for reapplication, you can mention that in your letter to ECM, having a copy of whatever they added would have helped you argue your point against the refusal.

ekpotek:
Write a cover letter to point out the mistake and submit it with other documents for scanning during your appointment.

I'm a witness to the much emphasis on the giving. And also wen pastors have to say one should saw seed with whatever they have that might lead away from God or they're no more making use of. They're collected and sold on auction. I witness that.
I don't have a problem with giving. Giving should be by faith. Not through a kinda continuous reminder that everything is tied to giving. I'm waiting for the day pastors will say NO MORE OFFERINGS AND TITHES, GIVE THEM TO THE POOR, HOMELESS AND ORPHANAGES AND YOUR REWARD BE IN HEAVEN. believe me most pastors will open orphanage homes.
It's not only by giving we receive God's blessing. We can by little gestures like assistance, respect for elders, love of God, community service etc.

About fornication and adultery by pastors, you can't just judge dem. We are humans like us prone to temptations but the lack of conscientizing themselves by trying to refrain its what i dont suppose is cool. That's why members should always pray for there spiritual leaders. It's not easy.

Church is now an avenue for money making. No more restrictions to the kinda things people put on to churches these days because another church might accept it and they'd lose such member which translates to a lot of money as banks loose money through on public holidays and also through bad customer care rep.
The best church is in ur heart. Dont be a die-hard fan to pastors but a son of God.

I don't want to comment about your first and second paragraph but your last. Becos the arguments will result in futility. We know what we know abt CE and let it stay like that

Peter and Paul are chapters in the bible shld Pastor Chris msg be equate to these chapters in the bible?

Marchman:
3. Pastor Chris is the orthodoxy
In CE, Pst Chris is the standard; he is the orthodoxy of the word of God. He is in fact treated like God. His words are law. He could cancel engagements, delay marriages and, in my mother’s language, can do and undo!
Everything revolves around him. He has limitless powers and not inhibited by anything.

And what do they say about absolute power corrupts absolutely?

Exactly what you have in the church. No one dares challenge him. In a godly environment, there should have been some enquiry in to the crisis of his marriage with the objective to mend the issues. But no one dares even raise such issues. People like Joe Agbaje are prepared to lie for him. I recall a time when the issue of PST Chris living separately from his wife came up here, Joe Agbaje defended him, claiming that the couple see often and even go on romantic get-away. It was not true. To all intents and purpose, the man abandoned his wife and family in London while gallivanting around the world with his concubines. This was wrong, but who could challenge the KING? The man had also warned members never to discuss pastors and that they should run away where such matters are being discussed. What you have is a situation where people are so afraid to even consider the allegations against him, so as not to be consumed by fire! SMH!!!

With such a context, the man can get away with anything, including polygamy. He can rewrite the bible, claiming that some portions or verses were not clearly written. He can do ANYTHING, and the staunch members and the pastors would defend him. I mean ANYTHING.

They deify him, call him the ‘Jesus in white suit,’ ‘the Jesus of our time’ and such heresies.
Two personal experiences really got me worried.

A. I was in church one day when a leader in a talk show said, “Pst Chris is not only in Ikeja or Lagos. His spirit is even here right now’’. I was shocked by the comments and obvious deification of a mere mortal. But when the pastor came up, he did not rebuke the speaker or said anything about it. I left for home, thinking hard: What has happened to these people?
B. Th other one was during prayer. The person leading the prayer asked us to pray so that the message of PST Chris will take over the world. Message of Pst Chris? I asked myself. I thought we came there because of the gospel/message of Christ? Does Pst Chris have a different message? Of course, I didn’t participate in that prayer but I was shocked that no one saw anything wrong in this, which validated my growing belief that the church was veering out of the Christian lane into something else.

I will stop here for now. But if challenged by the minions of the church, I have more arsenals. Good day and God bless you.

I believe everyone is entitled to their opinions. However, I also think it's wrong to make a generalisation without having all the facts.

Your first point about giving is noted but those who give aren't complaining or not seeing the results of their giving. In the bible, it was recorded in many instances that some people gave their all to a course whether in the old or new testament. You give according to the measure you want. Nobody forces you to give above your means. God sees ur heart remember? And I know that in CE it has been said several times that you can give whatever you have.


On your second point, CE talks about sin but that isn't the church's main focus. The church teaches that if you focus on the word of God, you will learn to live above your fleshly desires. Focusing on sin isn't even scriptural. Please refer to Roman 6-8. CE never glorifies sin. Go and listen to his messages there are several of them on sin and living by the spirit. Furthermore, I find it amazing how ppl just want to believe the wrong things. The issue of masturbation which many have misconstrued is sad. The other pastors on the panel talked expressly on how to overcome masturbation which shows the church doesn't endorse it. Secondly, pastor Chris went further to say that it is not a sin but a habit. He said when you treat it as a habit, it breaks the power over you. Masturbation is a habit and can be overcome.

Lastly, it is contained in several verses of the bible that there's a gospel according to saint Paul, St Peter and so on. So I don't think when they say pst chris's msg that they mean something different or heresy.

I believe everybody should have a relationship with God and seek him personally then by his spirit you can discern rightly.

Thanks

ekpotek:
That's the problem. They are checking to ensure that you did not use public fund. Without the receipt of payment, this will take time. You just need to wait for the outcome.

ekpotek:
It's not a crime to take medicals on a visit visa as long as you pay the bill. Since you have disclosed this, did you include hospital receipts in your application? Did you stay more than your initial plan?

justwise:
1. Yes individual applications

2. since she is not working then yes the same set of doc ..please read few pages back for list of docs expected from you

3. No you can't, has to be paid online

4. No

Please read back as this question have been answers several times.
