TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Ibukune(m): 6:54pm On Jun 26, 2022
Pls i need advice house. My wife is the main applicant for the sept study in the uk, but we had our baby last 2 months and its been difficult to get the babys international passport, although the baby had been capture. At the moment, the pof for 3 had started counting because of the time constrain, paradventure the babys inter. pssprt wont come out at the end of the 30 days pof period. Can myself and wifey go ahead and apply for our visa, and do babys application later on?

Can the same bank statement serve for the baby if her international passport comes at the 31 days after pof maturation?

Hey family I need your advice
I am currently serving in the nysc but I intend to apply for January intake next year to study in the uk with intention to ditch my nysc
I want to ask will that affect my visa application negatively or should I just wait and apply after I finish my nysc
Please I'd love your responses thank you
Nysc is not needed. My wife is same shoe and we are presently at the visa stage. There is no point nysc is needed.

UBA does not require letter of authorization (seeing that I’ve successfully done several for my spouse without uploading a letter).

The only document he needs to add apart from his wife’s documents is marriage certificate. They need to see your relationship with the person you are paying for.

I think he needs to tell us what documents he uploaded initially
I guess you guys have the same name abi?As in name had been changed on all documents.

Thanks for d response. I only uploaded her intr passport, unconditional offer, bsc cert. Its also important to say that all her application was on her maiden name based on d fact that the new inter passport with change of name after marriage isn't ready, so more like her name is different from mine,

Gloriyah:
Did you include a letter of authorization?
Since you’re using your account to pay,you need to include a letter authorizing your bank to debit and also a means of verification.
The note says attach documents(passport bio data bags,offer letter,school payment invoice,Bsc certificate,change of name or affidavit (if any).
Thanks for your response.
I didnt include letter of authorization, I will initiate a new one and include it. Means of verification like my ID, like international pssport?

Also, there is no school invoice, rather an unconditional letter with the total school fees, would that serve?
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Ibukune(m): 10:09pm On Apr 23, 2022
Hello. The form A I initiated for my wife using my own UBA account was minuted for rejection due to incomplete documentation. What should be my next step of action. Could it be atttibruted to using my account for her payment?

TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Ibukune(m): 5:52pm On Apr 17, 2022
Good day all. Pls my wife's admission to Northumbria came in her maiden name based on the fact that the passport she used for the application was gotten before we married last year. An unconditional offer had also been gotten in that same name, despite the fact that we have our marriage certificate, newspaper publication and affidavit of change of name to a new name. Do i need to change her passport to the new name for further application? Or would the old one work while myself as the husband have a different name on my passport since we intend travelling together (I am d Dependant).

Moreover, won't there be an issue processing my baby's passport with her old name. Thanks.

Hello house. Is there any point nysc certificate will be required in this journey. The applicant hadn't gone for nysc
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by Ibukune(m): 9:36am On Mar 21, 2022
hosey:
The name in the passport should be what you write in your visa application. If it is your maiden name, there is no problem at all. The name must be consistent. It is not compulsory to change your maiden name.

You can always change the name in your passport in the UK whenever you wish.

What you should focus on is your marriage certificate, proof of address that you and your husband are living together, marriage and vacation pictures, whatsapp or facebook chats or any proof that shows that your relationship is subsisting.
Thanks for your response . I really appreciate, the documents are all intact. Thanks.

Hello house, pls I have two questions.

1. My wife conditional offer to Northumbria university came in her maiden name (which is the same name on her passport), with the prefix miss, despite the fact that we were married before application and we have all documents of marriage (marriage certificate, newspaper publication and change of name), do I need to be worried.
2. I am supposed to proceed to make the initial payment of 2k pounds, how do I get started with form A (I wanted a friend in the UK to pay for me via black market rate but I learnt form A can give a reasonable CBn rate) And which bank is reliable for quick processing.
Thanks.

FamilyRe: How I Survive On 3k Per Week In Nigeria by Ibukune(m): 4:34pm On Nov 04, 2021
Supreme145:
I commented on a thread yesterday that was about how much that can last someone through the week, I posted that I can manage 3k for a week and I was literary dragged and trolled through the thread. Some accused me of lying while some said I still live with my parents, others saw my post as a scheme to accrue favour from people.

I never wanted to open a thread about this, but as God would have it, he blessed me ( Not from that thread) through Nairaland best roofer and known philanthropist @ money121 and @despian that sent me something to help with my school project. I managed to squeeze out a little money and branch to the market to get some food stuffs. Below is a detail of how I spent 3k on food stuffs that would last me a week.

Rice 1 mudu(8 cups) : #600
Beans 1 mudu(8 cups) : #900
Potato : #500
1/2 bottle of palm oil : #400( I add just enough to colour the food)
1 packet of maggi : #250
Powder pepper :#100
Onions :#100
Airtime :#100
Total :#2950
The remaining #50 is for Chelsea match later in the evening.

While I didn't make this post to glorify poverty but it seems some people are oblivious to the situation of things in the country at the moment. Apparently the hardship levels is skewed, based on the values that people were quoting on that thread. While some food stuffs are at a premium at the moment, there are some of us that cut our suit according to our ankara.

Next is how I manage the foodstuff to last me a week in no particular order.

Day one: Rice and beans
Day two: beans and potatoes
Day three: only Rice
Day four: porridge potatoes
Day five : only beans
Day six: Rice and beans
Day seven: potatoes and oil
Fortunately the stomach does not disclose its contents.

I iterate through the list during the week, I spend only #100 on airtime during the week. I don't call any body and spend #25 daily for 250 mb night sub which I use to apply for jobs. I wait for the following week when it gets exhausted.
I use salt as makeshift paste and patronize Hausa black soap for bathing.
I've my faze cap to conceal my overgrown hair, though my lord luggard esque moustache have a way of bringing my legs outside.
I fetch well water, boil and sieve it, in that way home made Eva water is set, who knows I might own a pure water factory in future so I'm practicing now.

Added plus: My Girlfriend
It's a popular opinion on nairaland and the country in general that most Nigerian girls are useless and are out to bring nothing but misfortune and misery to our lives. I beg to disagree because the ones around me (mom, siblings and gf) are anything but useless.

My current girlfriend is a frugal spender and taught me how to spend prudently. She taught me how to cook thereby cutting the amount I spend on food to a significant level. I can give her just #1500 and she would prepare two pots of stew and soup to last me a week. Like my Oga @chatinet would say there are still women that can go to the market with 3k and come back with two nylons.

While other nairalanders open thread open threads about their parasitic girlfriends, mine is actually helping me through a difficult phase in my life.
Sadly despite my pitiful standard of living, I still have people that I'm better than and see me as a senior man. Its that bad.

I'm not comfortable with my condition so I'm looking for jobs so as to improve my standard of living. My fellow nairalanders help me to start eating with meat by offering my any job available. I'm a graduate of Statistics/Computer Science (bsc ed) and a web developer.

So the doubting Thomas's here's a breakdown of my 3k weekly spending.

Modified: Obviously some people are still doubting my credibility. I stay in north bank, Makurdi Benue State for those asking.
If you are a web developer and good in what you do.... send me a whatap message. Number in my bio. Let's talk. Thanks
