@justwise and other gurus in the house pls I need your quick response to this

The main applicant base in lagos while the dependent works in abuja. Is it possible for them to have biometric in lagos tls for the main applicant and the dependent in abj tls. Will it in anyway affect the visa application?

dizzynet:
Thanks for your reply. So I took pcr test today and got a positive result. Absolutely devastated as my flight is tomorrow ! I do not have any symptoms and also wondering where/when I might have caught it. The question now is what can I do ? Uk government just announced self isolation can be cut to 7 days if I have a negative lft and no symptoms on the 7th day but I have been told that it is possible (likely even) to keep getting pcr positive up to 4 months after infection. Does the Nigerian government/air carriers recognise people that have recovered from covid but are pcr positive ?

mystikal:
Quick question please, who knows where I can get a covid PCR test done quickly. A friend needs it to travel to Nigeria from Glasgow and he claims it has to be done 48 hours before travel. He doesn't intend to spend more than £80 on this. Any pointers please?

P.S. his flight to Lagos from Heathrow is 28th December, the one from. Glasgow to Heathrow is on the 27th. It's tricky

lawali:
@justwise/others who travelled from UK to Naija recently, can one transit through Qatar to Naija with only fit to fly cert (departure PCR). I can see UK is on red list of Qatar.

Is there additional requirement other than PCR test? I have checked everywhere I can’t see any but want to err on side of caution. Trying avoid being stranded.

I will appreciate your immediate response. Family member needs to travel from Glasgow to Lagos tomorrow. Urgently need to do booking. Thanks

You have made your point please stop stressing it. People survive in Ukraine and the truth is that the country is better than Nigeria in a reasonable percentage.

@justwise. Thank you for your response.

They are not travelling with me now but they will be joining in the UK later. I hope selecting "No" will not affect when they are ready to apply.

@justwise and other Gurus in the House. I am presently completing my application online. I am applying alone and my family will be applying once my Visa is ready. Under Spouse info section, there is a question there "Will they be traveling with you to the UK?". I don't know whether to select 'Yes' or "No".

Experts in the house, please I need your help.

I'm a federal civil servant, wife just got a job in the UK as a nurse. This has been our plan, although she initiated the idea which I supported especially bcuz of our kids. As the time is getting closer I'm developing some cold feet, but eventually I'm sure I will move. Don't really know if leaving my civil service job and farming business is a good idea, I don't really have an Abroad game plan yet.

For pre depature covid test, must i use government approved ones on https://covid19.ncdc.gov.ng/laboratory/ ?

Asked on the student thread but no answers are forthcoming

Olanrewaju124:
I don’t know why you condemning Ukraine thou before I came in Ukraine is not my first choice actually but I gats try when I enter here things seems hard as times goes on I realize this place is one of the best and affordable to stay and study if you are smart enough as someone said earlier you will definitely get your permanent stay and it’s so easy to make it here if you know how to use your head get one or two legit things to do to me I don’t regret coming to Ukraine

As for the visa guarantee it’s not compulsory but I’ll advice you to pay

About the Ukraine is EU or not EU I don’t think you should be bothered about that meanwhile the good news is Ukraine is gonna join the EU anytime soon

It’s all choice

SAMWISE94:
God Bless you for this brother. How i wish Justwise is seeing this. He over wahala me the other day saying that Ukraine is a "dead-end"country.. .lol. The truth is, if you don't know you don't know.

Please house help, how does one get a lost refusal letter?

fisayodayo:

TRAY2:
@Justwise and recent Naija travellers, After filling the departure form on the Nigeria international travel portal, I put fully vaccinated and attached proof of my cert, at the end it said “you are not required to make payment”, I’m still not sure if this looks right. Pls was it the same experience for you, i even clicked on make payment it wouldn’t let me.

Hello everyone.

I noticed a few pages ago there seemed to be some confusion about ILR 10 years route, so I would like to share my positive experience.

Date of Standard Online Application: 31/08/2021
Payment Debited & Confirmation email received: 31/08/2021
Documents Uploaded via UKVCAS website: 14/09/2021
Biometrics submitted in person (Cardiff): 15/09/2021
Complex Letter: NONE
Received positive decision email: 17/12/2021
Received BRP: Waiting.


I accumulated the following visas during my 10 years stay: Tier4 student visa (5 years; 1yr Master's, 4yrs Ph.D.), Doctorate Extension Scheme (1yr), Tier 2 skilled visa (4 yrs).

For ILR long residence route (10yrs), you can fast-track the decision via the super-priority payment (extra £800) opened at 1 am (yes, after midnight). I would have done this but was not aware of the 1 am super-priority opening.

For me, it was imperative that I switch from tier 2 to ILR as soon as possible. I have always not really fancied my stay in the UK dependant on my employers or any other party. There are several instances where individuals and their families had to relocate back to Nigeria/other countries because they lost their jobs, company went bust e.t.c. and could not get another sponsor. A lot of people fell victim to this, especially during the pandemic.

A little bit of advice for those who recently came to the UK and are seeking permanent residency in the future is to plan accordingly. Start small and gradually grow big. As you may all have read from people's experiences, it's really not easy particularly for those coming with family on tier4 students visas. I cannot overemphasize cultivating the habit of saving and financial discipline as an application to transfer to another visa category or extend your visa is quite expensive. Also, put into consideration the cost of living e.t.c. Please, don't be too quick to spend lavishly while giving people back at home any kind of false impressions. Again, there are people who had to leave prematurely after making extravagant purchases due to losing their jobs and being unable to find another one on time.

Wishing you all good luck and all the best.

See you need to understand this bribing thing. It's for people whose visa application documents are not so perfect

SAMWISE94:
My last addition to the discussion so far is when thinking of getting out of Nigeria, Ukraine should not be your first choice.

Many of us that got Ukraine visas never started with applying to Ukraine. Na condition make crayfish back bend. Peace! One love!

GeneralDae:
What are the benefits of Ukraine though? Does it offer much after studies in terms of jobs, PR and Citizenship? I ask because I used to see Ukraine as a transit point for Nigerians, where you go with the hope to get visas to other European countries.

SAMWISE94:
Who says Ukraine doesn't have anything to offer me? Quality education, good transport system, uninterrupted power, good health system....to name a few. You think it's everyone that wants to cross to other European countries? Some person are comfortable here.

SAMWISE94:
So because i can't travel freely to other countries from Ukraine, that makes Ukraine a dead-end? Lol. What's the big deal in applying for visiting visas to other parts of the world?
Abeg...kindly carry your bad energy comot.
