Travel › Re: Overstayer In The UK - Advice On What To Do? by justwise(mod): 9:12pm On Apr 16, 2012
TripleAstar: Hi NL,

I would like anyone with similar experience to share or advice on what to do.

(Vj, Justwise and others please respond)

I over stayed in the UK and now I want to apply for a visa into other countries.

No crime, no illegalities or any issue with the UK govt - was just a bit ignorant about the immigration rules....

I am considering filling the right date of entry and exist (and also willing to submit my passport showing this). In fact, I want to say the complete truth about my immigration history but not explicitly telling them I overstayed in the UK (they will know anyways).

I would like to ask - Do you think other countries like US and Canada will check for my immigration history from the UK border? What are my chances of getting a visa... What information do they ask for to be precise (entry or entry and exist)?

What would you rather do? lie and destroy evidence i.e. passport (but past visa is precious) or say the truth and see where it lands you?

What would you suggest I do? Anyone done this before and survived the panic... in a nutshell, how do you correct the wrongs of your immigration history especially for overstayers?

Please get back to me. It is quite important. I am just about to fill in my visa form.

Thanks!
AStar
Over staying your visa is not the worst immigration crime, were you deported or you left on your own? There is no point trying to destroy any evidence, just explain briefly if you are asked. Present your passport as its, trying to hide or hold back any info is like running away from your own shadow, if you are not asked then don't mention it.

donlexs: Okay. Thanks very much. I'll get the info about the waec certificate. And just by the way,I have not collected it yet and I heard the process of collecting it is tedious. If I am to resume in September 2012,when is the earliest I can apply for a visa? Thanks.
Apply June to avoid July-August crazy season

yorke: I never said Ibori should be set free. They should give 5 months term in prison because he is right in the cell as i type. Those years should be added along with the jail term. That's my opinion. What happen to those northern corrupt politicians who brings nothing to the table but loots the treasury and still walking freely. Ibori should not be used as a scape goat for others.
Every criminal should be jailed, it doesn't matter how long it takes to get them locked up. Life sentence with hard labour!!!
Travel › Re: Nigerian Students In The Uk How Do You Survive? by justwise(mod):
Olupraise: Please can you give the definition of high. A university accommodation of 77pounds per week. Is it high?
It is defined as a standard room(not ensuite) with internet and other basic utilities.
please kindly enlighten me.
The standard University accommodation going for £77 a week is what is called single bedroom, while with the same £77 or less you will get double bedroom outside the University including all the bills.. . Internet connection, gas, water, electricity, and completely furnished. You can use the washing machine without paying while in some Universities you pay a £1 or so for using washing machine.

shemy: Uhmm, please I seriously need advise on how to plan my stay in UK, i was just given admission for a postgraduate course in Information security in Royal Holloway. What are the things i need to plan ahead for? also i am good in hairdo, of what benefit will this be, also i can do some wire works: making of earings, bracelets etc. Is it better for me to get campus accomodation? can i cook my own food ,i plan my family visiting me at least once before leaving(my kids and hubby). What sort of voluntary works are there to do? thanks
If you have the maintenance money which has gone up now to about £8,000 then financially you will be ok if you spent reasonably, stay away from university accommodations, they are pretty expensive and not good for families.

Your university student union will have list of voluntary work available, whatever handwork you are good at will help but you are not allowed to start any business with it, no matter how big or small

[quote author=petres_007]Oh, come on!! angry huh

Here I was hoping you'd finally come around and would at least call the Universities and report back here as you said you would. Is arguing blindly your chief pastime? I really, really thought you'd had a change of mind and was going to take one or two steps to "expose" this as fraud. Now you're just going to leave it to prospective students who want to waste their money?[/quote]Don't worry, you don't have to wait too long for my report on it.

He did not suffer enough, need to be given life jail sentence as a hard-core criminal.

donlexs: Thanks very much @justwise. Pardon me for asking too many questions.but what do I do if I dont have the Original copy of my WAEC Results and can you tell me the most popular reasons for individuals who are refused UK Study visas. Thanks.
What happened to your original WAEC result? I'm not really sure if the BHC accepts photocopy, maybe somebody with personal experience in that regard can help.

There is nothing like 'most popular reason' of refusing somebody UK student visa, you will be refused if you failed to meet any of the requirements

donlexs: @justwise I have read most of your post. They were really helpful especially the ones with elly. My question is simple. I have been given a conditional offer to a UK University. I am ready to make payments,however I studied in Ghana and I sent my transcript when applying to the Uk University. The problem is I didn't do Student Resident Permit whilst in Ghana. Would this be a problem for me? If it would be,what do you suggest I do. I will welcome answers from other individuals in the house. Thank you very much. grin
That will not affect ur visa application as you will be judged purely on meeting UK student visa requirements.

geeez: Hi guys. Thanks to the advice I got on this forum. I got my visa to the UK in 12 days but just a question.

What is the rationale for the passport page stamped with a visa. I got a UK visa and my visa was stamped on an inner page, leaving several pages blank. Same wih my son and on both passports, the pages stamped were different. Does anyone know why?
[quote author=soft-touch]I don't know know the rational behind that, Mine and my family passport was stamped with VISA on the second to the last page of the passport, leaving a lot of blank pages.
Maybe Justwise knows better.[/quote]Its nothing to worry about, nobody will hold you responsible for that, you did not stamp it, the embassy did, as long as you still have enough free pages in your passport they can stamp the visa anywhere they want.

warrior101: No link i heard it from Press TV News about 3-4 years ago... Used to be a fan of press tv cuz they are a little bit anti west media... We are not begging america for food duh why unifec continually cry for help about hungry people in sub sahara africa which include nigeria.... do you know how many ngo have been raised to fight poverty and hunger in this region... well i think you know. but just that n.korea is on the sport light now. their government know waitin dem dey do jare... i nor say make them nor feed ther ppl oooooooo
Press TV? Press TV? You must be joking, who takes Press TV seriously? Iranian govt ministry of information TV?

I mean, how can you compare hunger crisis in sub Sahara Africa to North Korean issue? Is sub Sahara Africa a country? Yes Nigeria is in sub Sahara Africa but are we begging for food?

You are really a Press TV product.

[quote author=petres_007]Ah, I see you're not completely allergic to being thoughtful after all! grin

Your statement here sort of implies you know that if the 'real' Professor Amoda so much as consented to having his name used in promoting the programme, lends a reasonable level of credibility to it as the prof would never allow such if he so much as sniffed something was amiss with the programme or the peeps who approached him to have his name used this way. I want to believe we both agree on that, don't we?

Now let me surprise you: the 'real' Professor John M. Amoda IS the one behind the programme! grin
They're not merely using his name to gain credibility. That is, if you want to pinpoint any one person as being the the chief visionary for the programme, its him. Find a way to verify this. I said before that professors aren't nobodies you'd have difficulty digging up stuff about or getting in touch with. Do your due diligence, bros and quit this arm-chair, paranoia inspired pronouncements! I remember pointing you to an article he wrote and had posted on the site called "The Idea behind the Scholar Sponsor Programme". here's the link again - http://www.scholarsponsor.org/index.php/the-idea-behind-the-scholarship-sponsor-project/

You can google his name. Various news releases, interviews and articles on him by even Nigerian dailies are available online. You can compare those with his article in the link I gave you. His full name's John Moyibi Amoda.

Personally, I understand the issue with the amount they're charging as processing fee. But all I need establish before getting over that is the CREDIBILITY of the company/people behind it. If from the start you'd showed genuine interest in finding out whether or not the prof really was involved in this, our conversation would have taken a very different direction.



You seem so hung up on this. Why don't you start by establishing the prof's involvement as I have suggested? We'll get to this one later. Do your background search and all you can to verify his involvement.





This again shows you're crying fowl over something you haven't bothered to get your facts straight about. The partnering universities they currently have are named at the bottom of this page on the programme website - http://www.scholarsponsor.org/index.php/about-3/

But please take your time and read through properly. Come up with facts, bros, facts! And don't forget to[b] report here[/b] as you said you would!

P.S. If you'd showed some seriousness about sincerely investigating the programme, I would have provided helpful tips and information I can't post here in public to aid you in your investigation. But as it stands. . . cool

[/quote]I don't need any helpful tips from you, either will i waste my time trying to investigate any name you have provided here, its up to any prospective student who wants to waste his or her N35.000 on this dodgy program. The fact still remain that no genuine scholarship demands application fees and unlimited number of applicants.
