I thought she is here on tier 2 visa. Otherwise, she should just chill and visit them during her school holiday.
I think you are right though i wouldn't encourage couple living that far apart, that will put a question mark on the marriage.

Different dad kwa? Same dad, Reason for refusal is because dad is not travelling.she is 3years, the one given will be 5years by January.
All the ECO wants to know is who will be looking after those kids while you study since the daddy will not be traveling.

Single mums do get a visa but you have to convince the ECO that your kids wellbeing in the UK is taken care of.

Even as your mum may likely come but she is not part of the solution visa-wise.

1. Arrange school/day care for your kids that covers time and days you will be at the university

2. Contact the day care/school and make inquiry then get respondent evidence for visa purposes.

3. Provide financial document to show that you are financially capable of taking care of those kids for the next one year

4. Explain this in a letter to the ECO that you have made arrangement for your kid with evidences and attach them to AR package.

Good Afternoon Everyone, Please I have just gotten a mail from UkVi requesting for additional documents.
They asked for a consent letter to use the POF signed by both my parents. I already submitted one from my Mother during my application but they are now requesting that both parents sign.
However, my father is late and as such cannot sign.
Will submitting a new dated consent letter from my mother and my father's death certificate suffice please? @justwise and co, your response would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Perfectly ok.

I dont think they can check your acct balance. No bank will give out that info. The best they can do is ask for you to reprint your statement and then confirm the authenticity of it with the bank.

Others can confirm though.

But really, I will be shocked to know any bank will formally divulge a customers bank balance. If they want to confirm anything outside the days you presented on the statement, they will have to ask you to initiate the request.
This is not true, we have debated, argued about this for years here. the embassy will get info they need from your bank if they want to, if your bank refused to corporate or not reply their inquiry your visa will be refused. Over the years here many have been refused for submitting fake bank statement or removing money after submitting application.

People will argue about this but when they get refused and banned they get another ID and come here to ask how to go about appealing the refusal.

You are not my favourite person justwise but when it’s time to call a spade a spade I would. truth be told a lot of these guys you are arguing with probably are living in denial it’s a stage which I understand because I’ve lived in Ukraine myself. They know you’re saying the truth but they choose to deny it. Ukraine really has nothing to offer other than the easier path of moving to better countries. Their PR is useless as far as I’m concerned ( you stupid agents and yahoo boys pls don’t even try and quote me I’ll not even give you a reply cus I’m tired of y’all).
Any meaningful young man or woman wanting a better future for themselves wouldn’t stay in Ukraine. I’m not just talking from hearsay I’ve lived and seen Ukraine from every perspective I still have friends there that are packing their bags now to move to other counties because all Ukraine does is rob you of everything you have. The matter long Abeg short and long of it is have a plan and whatever that plan is it should not include you spending the rest of your days in Ukraine. If you choose to na your papa business me I don talk my own. All man with Wetin dey worry me. Ciao.
My posts are not targeted at those ones, my concerns are for those planning to move to Ukraine and paying crooks $$$$ to get a visa.

These crooks both in Nigeria and Ukraine lied to prospective students that visa is guaranteed if they pay $$$$, they sale IV letter to them then target their school fees when they arrived in Ukraine, I'm only after those people.

My apologies. But others gave you advice about that already especially with regards to the kind of place Ukraine is but you were adamant with your opinions[/b]and perception about Ukraine that is why I decided to chip in. Don't feel bad. [b]I also concluded plans to study in Ukraine but I decided not to at the last minute after doing more due diligence. Mind you, while Ukraine unis that offer the course I planned to study had bad reputations, the ones that offer the course you study could actually have great reputation. For example, when it comes to physics, Ukrainian universities are excellent. I also think that Engineering in a good number of their unis are miles better than many other places. My major point is that you should do enough research so that you can pick a good one. In fact, you could find one that is comparable or even better than the unis in more developed EU countries.

Regards.
I only wish we have more people like you here. people who are not afraid of telling the truth,keep doing what you are doing.

Thank you so Much @zeemahn. I have been sounding adamant because the advices some persons are giving is already late for someone like me. Also the way these persons give out the advice can be very irritating. I have made the decision to be in Ukraine and i must position the state of mind to get the best out of Ukraine. It's a mindset thing. Thank you once again. I have gained somethings from you.
Yes truth is irritating and you and some people here are struggling to deal with it .

You are angry to read this because you know that you made a mistake by traveling there

Thanks and I am sorry Mr Justwise. We planned Priority for her but it was removed from TLS website. It is for my sister and the guy already collected money from another person for POF so he won't be happy to leave it for another 15 days even now that I am ready to pay him extra, the other person that promised just failed to fulfil his promise. All tuition fees has been paid. I just don't want the account to be empty before the decision is made . The application has been received by DMC already
Paying money into that account or withdrawing will lead to a refusal if they run a check.

What you are posting here is illegal, I’m not sure you are aware of this.

And paying money into your account now is till late and will definitely result in a refusal and possibly a ban.

Please let’s be careful what we post in public forum like this.

Ok, I think I stated the reason earlier. He was refused visa 2015 and never got to know the reason for the refusal because nothing was on the mail and it was an agent that did that for him then, and didn't know he was banned as well. So now that we applied for dependant visa , they refused him and gave the kids, stating that he was banned in 2015 because he falsified document, meaning he can only apply after Oct 2025.
Then there is very little the solicitor you hired can do. He was banned in 2015 and the agent who submitted forged documents did not disclose that to him then he applied and the ban was activated.

He can not use agent as an excuse.

Concentrate in getting your mum a visa to help with kids.

When is the right time to fill a passenger locator form?

When is the best day to do a pcr test if one is to travel tomorrow night?

Please help
Locator form and pcr test= 48/24hrs before you travel. Check the clinic website to know how soon your test result will be out. Some are the same day, some 24hrs.

Hello, please I need advice/suggestions.

I will be travelling to the UK in January with my family as an international student. While searching for accommodation, I got a 3 bedroom flat in Durham. Unfortunately, I couldn't get someone to do viewing for me (though the landlady immediately agreed that I sent someone and also dropped her phone numbers). So, I opted for virtual viewing and everything looks good.

She is not yet married and she said she's been in the UK for 6 years. Can someone co-own a property in UK in this short period?(She's Ghanaian and the other person is Nigerian). I was told to pay a deposit of £500 while I will pay the monthly rent of £570 when we are ready to move in. She didn't request for a guarantor as well.

She always sound nice and ready to help. Infact, she agreed that I can pay half of the deposit now and the balance in January before we arrive.

Elders, is it possible that this woman want to scam me or it's just one of those things? I got to know about the co-owner when I got the rent contract and according to her, she has a lower share in the property. The account number for payment is also hers.

Can I proceed please?


At your own peril, you should never pay for a house you did not view physically.

Scammers are ready to lower the deposit just to get hold of your money and they will do the same to many victims

Once you pay the deposit the story will change.

Merry Christmas and compliments of the season all.

I would like to clarify from those fully vaccinated who just travelled:

After visa issuance what do I need to do as regards COVID, as a fully vaccinated student?

- Do I need a pre-departure test result?
- On arrival, do I do both Day-2 & Day-8 tests or just Day-2 test?
- Can you recommend a good test provider in the UK?

Thanks
If you are fully vaccinated you will need a pre departure pcr test done 48hrs before departure and you also need to book day 2 test to be done when you arrived in the UK, they will ask you for evidence of all these at the airport even before you get your boarding pass.

You can use Randox or Boot

I tell you, I was at the mall after work yesterday, the shelves were dry, major food all gone.

E be like like say make I give 1 silly guy slap yesterday, I got to the bus stop to discover my bus card had disappeared. So I left my shopping bags at the bus stop to have a quick check at the mall. My mind was telling me abi make I no leave am whether somebody go steal am. Na im I say, nobody go carry am na shebi dem say camera dey everywhere. I ran in and came out to see one guy putting my bags away in his boot. I ran up to ask him what he was doing. He said oh sorry I'm in a phone call with the food bank and I thought someone wanted to give these away.

I was like how do you mean, if I wanted to have a give away I would have given the food bank a ring myself. He said sorry, dashed into his car, made a U-turn and left. If he really wanted to be kind, why would he not gibe me a ride when he discovered that my card had disappeared. Iranu

My mind was just imagining different things, like he probably wasn't calling any food bank. Or imagine if places were switched as in a black man putting a white's stuff in his boot.



Has anyone else experienced this?
Big mistake, you are lucky that you came out on time.

I have spoken about this mythical disparity previously.
A doctor/nurse/dentist/pharmacist/engineer/IT expert etc in London isn't getting paid more than their counterparts in the NE. The London weighting pay gets swallowed by the cost of living in London. If you do some research, you will find that in certain professions, the pay in the ''North'' is more than that in London and the SE. The reasons are many, amongst which are most professionals would prefer to live down south than up North for various reasons. Thereby leading to a shortage in the North of these professionals, thus an escalation in pay rates. It's supply and demand.
That is not entirely true considering the pay gap between London and outer London workers. Apart from housing, cost of living between London and the rest of the UK cities are relatively the same. My friend that lives in Luton drives to London to buy African food as its cheaper compare to Luton or cities in Bedfordshire.

My biometric was on the 8th of dec
I sent a paid mail and got this

Thank you for contacting UK Visas and Immigration International Contact Centre.

We cannot discuss the outcome of your application on-line or by telephone. However the visa application centre will be in contact with you in regards to collection or delivery of your passport.

We strongly recommend that you do not buy a non-refundable, non-flexible ticket to the UK, until your visa application has been approved and you

I want to ask, in case of refusal, would they still tell you decision has been made.

Am worried, alots of people that did on 8 has collected their visas.

@justwise @all

Thank you
