Done.... Thank you.. Pls sir/ma reply immediately@ p
I hope you don’t comeback to complain on this step you are taking ? If I tell you the money you are going to spend will hurt you , cos you will still go back to book your TB online or manually after spending the money. Patience the say is virtue . Wait at the center and you will book your test for another day which is not going to be tomorrow.

Ha! I have used my Wema account already to apply for my cas.. I thought I can apply from abroad
It doesn’t matter, don’t stress your head, there is no place in the rule that says you most be in your country of origin or use account statement from where you reside.
What if someone want to sponsor u and he/she is not in your home country or your country of residence ?

Good day Fellow Nairalanders
We are coming to Oxford Brookes in September. Family of 6. My wife is the Student. I noticed of late that housing is very expensive in Oxford. 1,200 to 1300 for 3 bedroom. Is there a nearby town where we can have cheaper accommodation and my wife will commune to school from. Her physical lecture is twice a week. Town that has job prospects and cheap housing not very far from Headington
We are in the same shoe, looking at berkshire pls anyone which idea about this location should help us ooo

Yes totally. Some banks like Paragon will even lend at 20% deposit for a BTL.
If you don't own any at all yet, then a 10% deposit will be accepted too. However the higher your deposit, the quicker it is to leverage
Thank you so much

Hehe teaching is my daytime job. But that teaching eh, can't sort my future the way I want. So property it is. Interestingly, although property is our side gig, it pays us way way more than our daytime jobs. But packing in the daytime job will kill our affordability. Chicken and egg situation
Can someone on tier 4 visa get into this property business , will be ready to put down 25%

But, I think TLS centre is for those that can't find any booking, so you just do walk in and do your biometrics. Please guys correct me if I'm wrong.
You are wrong TLS is where biometric is done, you most book a day before going for work in. Note people that go for walk-in are the once that have a date that is far and the need a closer date

I have done that. The person that spoke with me said he can't advice anything thing now, unless the case worker attend to their file and see documents that are missing. And there are times where they will request for extra supporting documents.

But am looking for the email to report what happend. My wife said the lady arranging the document actually told her that she doesnt need consent letter. As an assisted service, they are suppose to advice properly but now they misguided her.
There is also a paid email, I guess you email and let them you will like to send in more documents

Why not make your suggestion and pass mine?
Was the response for you?
If you have nothing to say just pass by, okay.
This is the problem , you don’t want to learn from what you don’t know , I should read and pass and someone will now go and cancel their application and start waiting for God knows when the will refunds. If payment where not done by them. Stop taking words that doesn’t favor what you said as an offense

Cancel then do another appointment.
Stop this kind of advice , they will be cancelling the whole visa application. If their visa fee was not paid by them or they used third party payment platform it become and issue getting refunds. I know of someone who did this till today she as not gotten refund she used Paga

Start by stream lining the documents you submitted.
Which ones were directly from you and which ones are not.
Look through the ones that are not from you for genuinety.
If after having done that you still believed you were refusal wrongly.
File an appeal.
If you file an appeal and you actually have a counterfeit document, you will be prosecuted.
I have heard 2 cases who used fake "Sponsorship letters" dem still dey chop beans oh.
Be very sure before appealing.
There is no appeal in student route, he can do administrative review

February and July ain't the same bro. LoL.

I was at the VI office for that purpose after getting information that they were opened for service today.

After writing GWF numbers and names on a sheet of paper and submitted same as expected, they eventually called only 7 names out of a total of 26 names on the list. It was a crazy experience today at the VI office. They had to attend to those on appointment first.

However, they duly attended to everyone that was scheduled for appointment today at the VI office. As in, all of them.

But for walk in today, it was a day to forget. They couldn't even make provision for canopy or reception for candidates to sit and wait before they are finally attended to. You have to stand under the sun, even those that came with kids. Truth is, it wasn't a good experience today. We were asked to return tomorrow.
I had same bad experience at ikeja , people can know what to plan for now .
