AVISENNA:
My fiance changed the password to her box under the guise that she finds it hard to remember, , what do you think.

Why are you interested in her password to start with?

steve003:
Hey mr,

You better mind how you talk, what do you take me for? Am not a kind of person you play around with.
What exactly do you mean by this Hmm,
You did not buy any e-book from him. Try harder next time.
You better mind what you say here, cos am not a kind of person you play around with

Don't be silly, what will you do if i 'play' with you?

Yes you are always interested in every bogus thread

tyolsgirl:
Thanks that was really helpful. I dont think you are trying to scare me or anyone here, but I think its always better to seek good clarification of issues you see or read, so there wont be problems.
You are doing a great job here, keep it up, I hope I'll be able to give back what av learnt to others who might be in my shoes later on (Just like you),
I need you to clarify this for me please. If I am using a sponsor who is self employed and doesn't have a[b] tax clearance certificate[/b], what documents do you think I might submit as regards this. What came to my mind while I was reading the link you posted was statement of accounts, but I think this will only be necessary if the money will be in the sponsor's account. But where the money is now in my own account, what additional documents do you think I can submit for this, or am I supposed to submit two types of accounts??
Thanks,

Bank statement will do, the BHC will not only look at the bank balance but also the income per month or year. He should give you his active account that shows his incomes, if his account shows that he is capable of sponsoring you then that is what matters. Remember that he also need to give you a letter to reinforce his committment to sponsor you through out your studies in the UK

@ Justwise,
Good to have u arround and more power to your elbow coz u're doing a great job. Pls how easy do u think it is to start a Phd Programme immediately after M.Sc or do I have to come to Nigeria and make a fresh application for Phd program?

It doesn't take much time, as soon as you get an university that accepts ur area of research then you can start processing the application

temmym3:
@BABAIBADA, Thanks alot brov. A friend also told me that too but i just want to be sure wella
@TASOLSGAL, As if u know what next am gonna say, JUSTWISE please what do you think of that?

Please can i just point out here that i'm not in any way trying to scare anybody about the whole money issue or discourage anybody.

If you are using money held by your parent(s) or legal guardian
Close
If a student is relying on money held by your parents(s) or legal guardian, you must show that you are related to your parent(s) or legal guardian. You must provide:
your birth certificate showing the names of your parent(s); or
your certificate of adoption showing names of both parent(s) or legal guardian; or
a court document naming your legal guardian.
You must provide the original legal document or a notarised copy.

You must also show that your parent(s) or legal guardian have given their permission for you to use this money. To do this, you must provide a letter from your parent(s) or legal guardian confirming:


your relationship with your parent(s) or legal guardian; and
their permission for you to use their funds to study in the UK.


If you don't work and you are relying on your parents or a relative then BHC would want to know if your sponsor has a good source of income to see you through your studying time in the UK.
If your sponsor shows things like good bank account, payslip or anyother good source of income then that will convice the BHC that u did not just borrow that money for the suppose of visa application and will return it as soon as the visa is issued.

I'm telling you what i did and many pple here did and was given a visa without an interview or delay

temmym3:
Guys. Pls i asked this question once in the forum but i couldnt get a specific answer. I ll be using my own account for the visa application and the money will be deposited by my dad's friend. My chances of gettin a visa may be jeopardized if i use my dad directly in terms of source of funds. What do i do, Am confused. It is a must for me to start process now pls. What do i do.

I think i answered your question then, I'm afraid, the only person who can sponsor you is a person who shares the same family name with you.eg. ur brother, sister, uncle, dady&mum, etc. Source of income does matter, your sponsor needs to give you sponsor's letter and evidence of his source of income.

dinggle:
My question to you all is which one of you is a Bostwana citizen I would have tot the better inquiry would have been "Is Nigeria A Visa Free country to Canada"

They will start buying Botswana pasport now, b4 you know it, the canadian govt will remove Botswana from visa free list.

Typical of some Nigerians, the same thing happened to Malawi, they rushed their pasports untill the British govt removed them from visa free list.

Omo Alata:
I'm worried now after reading this thread

I will be going to Nigeria in July but will be needing a visa. I thought it will be a straightforward thing. Seems I'll need to pray and fast before heading to the embassy

You don't have much to worry about, i got mine within 2weeks, they are improving, things are not that bad.

taitee:
pls is it compulsory to go thru an agent to enter ukrain 4 study cos some say so bt its nt on d website

Send them an email, either the school or the embassy, if you have to go through an agent then they will give you the list of registered ones.

Don't be a victim.

@op,

Online dating is not bad, it works for some pple and for some pple its a nightmare.

Things have changed, meeting online is a starting point, same pple you meet online could be sitting next you in church, lecture rooms etc. Scammers/419ners you meet on the street don't carry sign post.

One can meet his/her love anywhere including online.

zebra543:
when u say online dating do you mean dating sites? or meeting up ith someone on a site like this or facebook? Online dating is not wrong, people meet thier spouses online every day. I just dont think it should be replace conventional dating. People are spending more time behind the computers and less time out on the road! so your chances of 'knowing' your partner even less! no2 your nigerian, 99% of the men you come across will most likely be scammers, and women most likely love-peddlers! I wont advise it but its not actually all bad

If you really believe that then the only part of ur brain cell that works has failed you.

steve003:
I think Jamesmarti is right,
I got the E-book from him, and i have gotten so many important info. i need.
His a very honest Guy, and i think so many Prospective Students from here would like to have the E-book, coz it contains real important facts.

His a good Guy.

I'm not suprised that u are backing him, u are always interested in every dodgy deals.

You did not buy any e-book from him. Try harder next time.

seedord247:
I'm not been silly neither silly, there is this thing in her that make me feel she still cheat on me when first met her and i often ask her that time, are you dating any other person and she said no. She was once pregnant for me around January this year and i told her not to abort it and she later went and abort it giving me silly excuse that her father want her to getting married before pregnant and that time i want to end the relationship, her mother and her sister started begging me that i should forgive and forget even my friends but now why can't she go and abort it herself.

Now you are shifting the goal post, she aborted ur baby in Jan and you did not end the rela/ship or start using condom, you went ahead and got her preg again and suddenly remember that u need to find out about her past history?

Why not tell her straight up that u have finished using her and now want her out of ur life? Tell me you were a virgin when u met that poor girl?

Toonice:
@ poster: 1st i don't trust the girl she slept with 6men and what is the assurance that u are the owner of the pregnancy.

My Advice for u is that don't do the abortion yet took her to GOOD and SOUND hospital and do the baby screening may be
u are the real biological father. if the result prove that u are the real father then let her give birth to it and take it from her.
But if the result prove otherwise just ask her to look for the right owner of the baby. I rest my case.

Did you ask the poster how many women he slept with b4 meeting his gf? Or only men are allowed to sleep with more than one woman b4 settling down?

Your question was answered here. https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-453595.0.html

olajidson:
i dont know what to do, i caught my pastor banging my finance a day after our wedding day?
and he kips begging that it is the Devil's work. this is d same pastor that prayed and said to me that, she is my wife to be?
pls tell me what to do?

I'm struggling to believe your story.

seedord247:
she has date 6 different guys before i know her.

Please please and please stop being silly. . what on earth are u going on about? She dated those 6 guys BEFORE you met her, did she tell you that she is a virgin when you met her? How many girl have you slept with b4 you met?

This is utterly nonsense! Why are you putting her through this? She is preg and need you support for God sake!!

Baba Ibada:
@ justwise,Pls I need some clarification on Laminated Certicificate, is it applicabe to Birth Certificate alone or other certificates especially Degree and O level Certificate? Secondly, my brother is the one to deposit the money I need for my studies into my account but due to the fact that he dosnot like moving huge some of money about, he has been transferring the money online from his acct to mine but based on his bank online system he can only transfer 400k per day with a maximum of 200k at a go. Do u think this will not raise any question or suspicion? Lastly, do I need to show my Birth certficate eventhough I'm not being sponsored by my parents. Waiting to read from u. God Bless

1=BHC has issues with any laminated document, so avoid submitting laminated document.

2=Moving huge sum of money within a short period of time is not a good idea, its always good to move sensibly, why not withdraw the money and pay it into ur account gradually? You can pay it in every 2weeks or 3weeks.

3=Your sponsor must share the same family name with you, your brother should given you sponsor letter + evidence of his source of income. That will convince the BHC that he is capable of sponsoring you throughout ur studies in the UK. Having the whole money is not enough cos chance are that money could be withdrawn as soon as the visa is issued.

aieromon:
For every one of these morons you fight,ten more will spring up.
Let the fools fall for the scams.

You could be right but the fight must go on.

johnkent:
USCIS officer at the point of entry determines how long u can stay and not the visa in your passport. My mom arrived the US ona visa that expires in a week but she was given an I-94 for 3 months. Again, it depends on who you meet at the point of entry. Some of them are really nice and some of then are a pain in the u know where.

I clearly see where you coming from now.

[quote author=_________ link=topic=453437.msg6114480#msg6114480 date=1275142395]He never said this. Please read again. He's saying USCIS port of entry officer determines the length of the person's stay which is absolutely true. The officer could deny entry, may elongate or cut short the duration given by Visa officer in Naija.[/quote]I see your point.

johnkent:
i dont know what happened to my post but anyways, [b]a visa doesnt tell you how long u can stay in the US. United states citizenship and immigration service (USCIS) officer at the point of entry can let your friend stay for 6 months regardless of when his visa expires.
Your friend can visit the US anytime from now if he wants to but like i had earlier stated, he would have to show why he wants to spend a few wks before and after the conference.[/b]Applying for an I-94 extension is a pain in the neck. It cost about $300 and it takes 3 months to get a response from USCIS.

Are you for really? So if you are given 3months visa u can go ahead and stay as long as u want? Please where is ur source?

@josephj

Your website is as fake as your post. I suggest you get a real job.

Vicjustice:
First of all, it will be helpful if you state the country that you wish to study in, the course in mind and the duration.
Are the origins of your fund traceable in your bank statement?
Please, avoid money lodgement (ie depositing large untraceable sum into your account as this is an express ground for visa refusal). And however it is always an added advantage if you have a sponsor whose financial statement would stand as a guarantor because, visa officers do not like to believe that a potential student would be willing to spend most (if not all) of his fund to finance his first year fees and maintenance.
Booking an accommodation? Are you talking about making a reservation or you meant booking in the sense of making a payment? Again, are you talking about lodging accommodation or a rented residence? Well, lodging accommodation does not look good, but a rented residence. And i do not encourage spending money on accommodation that you are not guaranteed of occupying, even the embassy does not recommend so.
I however suggest that you contact a genuine letting agent to arrange a reservation in an appropriate area, and a formal reservation letter should be issued in this regard so you may present same with your application doccuments

I guess he is talking about UK, the prob he will face as u pointed out is to justify his source of income.

jamesmarti:
Am already done with my studies, and my cousin is currently completely his Masters In Norway, and will be thru by Next Year.

His Studying completely free without paying tuition fees,

jikings:
I have applied for UK student visa in 2006 and was denied cus I had insufficeint funds in the account. I'm about to apply again this year cus I have all the cash i need sitting for the last 28 days as required. If i declare that I have been refused a student visa before is that going to affect my chances of getting the visa this time around? House pls advise I'm about to submit my application soon so I need to do the right thing. Thanks!

Go ahead and apply, that will not affect ur chances of getting it this time around as long as you meet all the requirements. Its always good to be honest, remember that they may still have your record, so even if u don't tell them, they will find out and that will count against you.
