Hello
Is COS a required document to upload for skilled worker visa?
Mine was passworded and showing error on TLS website when I attempt to upload it.

Hi everyone.
Would an unexplained lump sum on like day 16 of my statement of account affect my chances of getting a health workers visa?
I'm worried that the rising exchange rate would affect the money I've saved

It shouldn't matter. They don't really care as long as the balance in the account does not drop below what you require as POF.
Ok.
Thank you for your response

Hello everyone.
Is the 28day statement of account for health and care visa like the one for visitor visa where you have to explain income and expenses?
Would a debit that states refund of loan, raise any eyebrows?

Please how did you rectify this? I am having the same issue.

I sent them a mail. But before they even responded, I booked the same date and time again.

Congrats. Please. Want to ask a question as regards these priority. Did you submit the priority payment email printout alongside your docs at the visa center. Cos my bro never submitted the form neither did he printed it out from his mail. But he told me he informed the man at the point of fingerprints about the priority service he paid for but he was told its already on the system. Am just kinda curious maybe that's why he hasn't got a response till now. He did his biometrics together with his wife on the 21st and yet to get a response and he paid fir priority service. Visitor
I informed the person. Didn't submit too. Maybe he should send a mail

I will appreciate a response please

If its not showing your appointment date on the platform, you simply don't have an appointment yet. Just book again for an appointment if you can still get a closer date.
Something similar happened to me. On the the appointment day, they will just say your GWF number is not reflecting on their system and deny you entry.

If you paid for services on previous appointment, you can claim refund.
Ok. Thank you very much

Click on the part that says “documents and biometrics”, then click continue afterwards. You will see the track option
Thanks for the response.
You don't understand me though. I've passed that stage. I've booked the biometrics date and priority service, got confirmation mails but my account on the TLS website still says I'm yet to get a biometrics date and so I can't upload documents.
I've sent them a mail.
Thanks again

Use the email UKVI sent to you after completing your application. That’s the only way to track your application
I did
It takes me back to a fresh page that shows that my biometrics is yet to be booked

Good morning everyone.
I booked an appointment on the TLS website during the night. I got confirmation mails but it's not reflecting in my account on the website. Does anyone know how to correct this?

is it plab 2? If yes they may close their eyes to some certain things if other boxes are well ticked. Try to ensure that you prove greatly beyond reasonable doubts that you will come back. If not plab 2… sorry I can’t speak on it
Yes it's plab 2.

Ok. Thanks a lot for your response

1.4 million naira is low balance for UK visa. The price of tickets for UK trip is currently above 750k. If I were you, I would run the account for at least six months.

Can one gets visa with that balance, yes, it’s possible especially for frequent travelers and those who have sponsors. One folk actually got visa with account balance of less than 1m.

In any case, it all depends on how your application is packaged. You may give it a shot.

This is just my own personal opinion. I am not an expert in this field.
Thank you

It is advisable for you to have in your account the amount that will cover the cost of your trip and also have reasonable amount you can fall back on when you return from your trip.
Thank you

You can actually use 4 months bank statement as long as it is clean.
Thank you very much for your response.
Do you think the account balance is ok for a 5day trip just for my exam.
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by IfeNimi: 9:36pm On Sep 25, 2022
Ashirioluwa:
The requirement is six-month bank statements.

Some applicants used a 4 or 5 month bank statement, but most of them are frequent travelers.

Why don't you run the account for 6 months before you put in your application?
Thank you for the reply.
What do you think about the account balance?

Good evening everyone.
Please do you think an account balance of about 1.4million and a 4 month statement of account would be good enough to apply for a visitor visa.
I have an exam in the UK in February and I'm just trying to get things ready ahead of time.
My Salary is 220k and monthly expenses about 50-60k
Anyone please

No travel history
6 month visit visa

Abuja TLS

Biometrics April 27
Received by DMC April 27
Paid mail June 13
Reply to paid mail June 14
Collection mail June 14

Visa collected June 15

NB; Things that changed from my letter

1. I reduced the duration from 7 days to 5 days
2. Reduced Accomodation to 70K from 150K and backed it up with booking reservation
3. Reduced living expenses from 100K to 50K
4. Got an unexpected salary increment I had to update.

I needed up applying later than I intended because I was waiting on a sponsor but when that fell through, I just had to wing it.

Thanks to everyone. I've been a lurker on this thread for a very long time, and it helped me start preparing my mind early.

Next up
Flight booking, any advice on how to get affordable flights?
Congratulations. I've been waiting for your post �
