@mimiyric
I did not upload my previous visa or stamp passport page o, i only upload my passport data page. Hope is not going to affect my application

mimilyrics:
Those are evidences of previous travel which would have normally been stated in the part of the application that asks about previous travel history, so they should be uploaded.

Thanks so much
I will o, i don't want story

Doyinh:
I heard that it's everywhere that they've put video interview on hold but there is still going to be phone interview so prepare well

Good morning All,
Please people that went for their biometrics this week at VI, did you have your interview as well?
I'm asking because of the information going around regarding interviews, mine is tomorrow

Thanks

Congrats

Dejavu31:

Timeline

Thanks to all that helped with information on this platform. And to those waiting you will receive yours IJN

Yes
September start

Ifujenko:
Has anybody received CAS from university of Bournemouth this academic year?

You can change your money with BDC operators inside the airport don't patronize those aboki outside Lagos airport o

Get another bag and divide the contents. This will favour you more and save you some money because the international airlines i know charges in $$ for extra kilo.
Also, why stressing yourself coming to Lagos since Abuja also have International airport? just asking

OlakunmiSMELTD:
Please guy, where is the place for me to change my Naira to euro?
It is possible I change it at my bank ( GTB)

Secondly, I planned to use use local flight from Abuja to Lagos first, before talking the international flight.
My worries now is that, local flight is 20k
While international flight is 23kg * 2
My luggage is about 35kg *1

Will the local flight accept the 35kg or charge me ?
What could likely be the charge of the 15kg extra

Thirdly, international flight says 23kg * 2
But am only Carrying 35kg * 1
And 1 school bag
Will that be a problem or I must have 23kg and 12kg in another luagages

Congrats

BelleJay:

sojourner256:
Hi guys,

I have paid the 55 pounds charge for TLS VI and gotten 14th of Sept for my appointment. But will i have to pay this fee again if i click on amend appointment? Thank you

You can only pay your visa fees with paga. You cannot pay IHS with paga again because most banks have reduced their monthly limit

faks10:
Read 6 to 7 pages backwards, you will get the answer on paga verve.
This forum is a thread, let's stop jumping to the last page just to ask questions, the more you read, the more you learn.

No
No
You have a working limit of 20 hrs per week so is difficult to depend on that
That is why they are emphasizing on having your school fees and maintenance fee ready because they know is going to be hard. Also, this Covid-19 situation you cannot predict how long it might take for one to find job.

uche06:
Please can I get a job in the UK that can be enough to pay my nursing degree going there with a dependant .
Also is it possible to use work to pay nursing degree

Aww
Thanks so much dear, I really appreciate your selfless service
God bless you dear

mimilyrics:

Good morning @Soknown
Please can i have the link for list of companies that sponsor Tier 2 visa. My cousin is interested. I saw it posted somewhere but not sure if it is here or in the UK visa section. Kindly help me if you can
Thanks

Thank you

mimilyrics:
You don't have to worry because as mattfeuter explained, the rate used to convert the funds in your account will be the Oanda rate for the day you submit, it doesn't matter if it surges a day(s) after or before your submission.
Just the way the 28-day count must be completed before (not after) your submission, the rate to be used will be for the day you submit (not the rate for any day before or after your date of submission)

Please what if after submitting your application and waiting for your biometric and visa outcome and the rate surge higher that the amount sitting in your account, any need to worry?

mattfeuter:
No.

Because it’s already locked. The eco will use the rate on the date of application to calculate the required funds.

I linked my gtb card (Master card) to my paga wallet and pay my visa fee smoothly. I was charged 387.40

Fwaz:
Please wasn't it through paga verve or just through visa?

Thanks so much for this swift response

I appreciate

Mikeval001:
Yes you can,I change my first date twice

Really
Wow
Please after payment can i still change the date if i see a closer date?

mimilyrics:
User pay fees. Applicants pay for using VI.

Good evening all
Please I need help
I choose VI for my biometrics and saw £55 inside basket already, i don't understand

Please someone should explain to me

I think some people said it can be possible I don't know much about it, i believe that people with such experience will answer better

Nattiejt:
Congratulations.... pls I am the main applicant, the only appointment date I could get was 14th of sept while my dependants got 31st of aug.... can I do walk in with them?

Congrats

Amen and Amen

Visa approved for me and my family,Yaaaayyy!!!

All the BP from getting CAS on time, to exchange rate increasing, to finding cards to pay for IHS/Visa fees and the sleepless nights and restlessness of trying to find appointment has ended in praise and so it will end in praise for you too regardless of what stage you are in your application. Amen

All roads leads to Newcastle Upon Tyne.! Hustling for flight ✈️ now on my mind.
Thank you Jesus!!

And thank you to everyone here who has been committed to providing support towards a successful application.

Noted, Thank you

mattfeuter:
In other words,

You want to submit a document that wasn’t requested thereby creating a loop hole in your application and subsequently room for thorough scrutiny and checks?

If I was you, I’d stick to and present what was stated on my CAS.

Good day all

In my CAS, my school listed only B.Sc. as evidence use for my offer.
Also, for English language assessment, they stated Higher Education Institution (HEI) sponsor has made assessment

I submitted my WAEC and PTE English exam and M.Sc. certificate with my application. I did my M.Sc. in one of the countries listed as having knowledge of English language and i did not need to prove my knowledge of English knowledge)

My question now is
1. Should i submit only my B.Sc. certificate and other required documents?
2. Do i need to submit my work reference letter? (I'm going for a career change and my work experience was the main reason i got the offer, my undergraduate was Economics, M.Sc. Professional accounting and want career change, so I'm going for M.Sc. Mental health nursing

@mimilyric and other gurus kindly advice. I want to submit my visa application today

Thank you

Fill your school address there

Hebraeem:
Good morning, please I'm trying to fill my IOM form to register for my appointment and there's the "address and phone number in the UK". I'm not sure what I'm suppose to fill there. I'm a novice oo
