Hello Mr. Justwise and the gurus in the forum. I planned on visiting the UK on a tourist basis but I also want to visit a brother in Mexico after spending 5days in the UK. My question is this, do I need to apply for Mexico visa or I can use the valid UK visa to enter Mexico and get stamped in coz I read it online that any nationality that holds a valid visa of US, UK Canada, Japan and shengen does not need a visa when coming to Mexico. I want you guys to enlighten me more about it. Thanks in anticipation
I have read that as well but never seen anyone who tried it.

Give it a go but you need to book a return ticket to the UK or to Nigeria

This is the real problem with Nigerians. Someone makes a comment, albeit a wrong one. All you need to is make it clear that he is wrong and spell out the consequences. Instead you and the other one justwise are threatening to block him. You give someone a little power and they overuse/misuse it. We find these same symptoms in the police, government and even university staff. Yet you will be the first ones to complain when you feel victimized. No matter how long you have been here you obviously don't know it all.
This is just nonsense, I honestly wish the government use their power in weeping out crooks, corrupt and fraudulent Nigerians, the same Nigerians who will travel out and continue with their fraudulent behaviours.

How will you correct someone who persistently claimed to be right despite the evidence?

I have no doubt in my mind that a large number of Nigerians are decent law abiding individuals but we have few twisted minds and their defenders like yourself who have put us on the wrong path in history.

I want to appeal to us to lessen the attacks and threats. I dont get to read comments like this on other forums. Let us argue constructively and provide proofs where possible. For those that have power to withdraw other people privileges, lets not scare people away from voicing their mind. We all learn by speaking out.

I have taken my time to read the whole question and solutions proferred from the moment it came up. I am yet to see anything wrong with the op going ahead to submit his application as long as the statement is not older than 31 days and the balance didnt drop below the mark for the 28 days. I have read the whole tier 4 guidelines, i am yet to see where it is written that the money must be in your account after the 28 days. I stand to be corrected and many folks who have gotten their visas here can testify to this. You may argue that it was stated that the money must be available to you for your study whilst in the uk. But i havent met many people who keep money in savings or current account forever.

To fulfil the 28 days requirement, people liquidate interest yielding mutual funds, treasury bills, fixed deposits etc. Once you fulfil the 28 days, i believe there's nothing wrong in moving your funds back to these security instruments even while your application is being considered.

Just so that you know, the banks are not obliged to disclose any account balance to any visa office other than to confirm authenticity of the bank statement presented. This is the reason why visa officers look at trend and not closing balance which often time could have changed before the application is been considered.

For tier4 visa, the 28-day rule is simply 28 days of maintaining a certain balance nothing more. The ukvi knows many folks do all sort to raise this fund including borrowing, but they have also deviced means to combat that by demanding the sponsor i.e the school report every irregularity if any is observed to the home office immediately after you resume in school.

Please lets educate ourselves by being open and factual, and not by intimidation for no man knows it all.
I will scare anything that breaths out of this section the moment that individual starts sharing or encouraging any wacky idea about abusing student visa rules, i will not think twice banning that individual.

The issue of sharing information regarding cutting corners is NOT up for debate here, not for a second.

If you want to withdraw your money and use it before/after visa application thats your business but don't share or encourage others to do that here.

Hello folks

Please i need a little help, i am yet to get an accomodation as I plan to stay in a hotel for 2 days and get accomodation close to the school. While filling the form online, I was asked where I would be staying and i gave this same explanation. the problem now is the IHS form cant be filled without providing an address as it keeps asking me where i want to stay. You need to state whether you are applying to stay in the Isle of Man, Jersey or Guernsey. What do I do about this?
Use your school address, it will not be an issue

Another thing is that this thread or nairaland in general will never grow if when someone challenges your opinion by arguing against it, you then threaten to remove that individuals posting privileges, I know argument or debate leads to knowledge growth, what if am right and you are wrong or if am wrong and you right, you would have just explained to everyone why you believe its bad for him to have used part of the money because I explained the disadvantage of using the money but sighting it won't prevent him from securing his visa. The funny thing is that I answered the question because I pitied the OPs situation. Please I believe everyone here is an adult and know constructive argument only leads to growth but I still promise never to answer any questions in nairaland because of justwise. Thanks

@Justwise, don't mean any offence by my posts but a lawyer from UK Council for International Student Affairs was where I got my information from. That is a white woman lawyer, she was stressing that students don't understand immigration laws but I guess you can remove my posting privileges for posting something an immigration lawyer clarified..instead of just asking me where I got my information from. I can understand you have read all the laws of tier 4 visa, so have I. I can remember a part that stated that the money should be available even after your application but you are misunderstanding that statement, that was the statement the woman clarified. Normally i dont answer questions on nairaland, even when i know the answer, i only selfishly ask questions and from now, i will stop answering questions again. Thanks
Yes please stay a way if all you have to contribute is how to circumvent the system.

This thread has a lot of people giving honest and genuine information, so there is no need for any questionable information here.

Like i said before i will remove your posting privilege if you come here to encourage the abuse of the system. I don't care whether white, brown and black immigration lawyer told you that.

@Justwise. Yes she has 12,400 pounds for her dependents.are there any other documents she might need.
Ok, she needs to follow student visa rules and complete the form carefully.

Student visa application is straightforward and easy to secure if you do the right thing.

If you don't stop using this thread to encourage the abuse of student rule your posting privilege will be removed.

Do whatever you like with your application but never come here trying to encourage others to do the same.

Thanks a lot. one more this Bro. My uncle over there has paid my CAS fee. must the money be transferred to my account and I present my account statement or he said he can send me his account statement to prove he has fund to pay for me.
You can't use your uncle's account, he has to transfer the money into your account.

Oga or madam, you don't know how wrong you are, read up more, it is not even UKVI business what happens to the money, they just want to know you have funding for staying in their country, so spending a bit of the money is not wrong
You are just ignorant of this and its very clear from the way you go about misleading the op.

Hi everyone, is it true that you must book return flight ticket when you are on a tier 4 general visa ? An agent told me one might not be granted entry if you don’t have a return ticket. How true is this, please?

hello guys pls I need urgent answers from any1 knowledgeable in this area assist me with list of any additional document my pregnant cousin applying for a tier4 visa Phd student. Should include in her application after starting she’s pregnant to avoid visa rejection.
1.Is she traveling alone?

2. How many months pregnant?

She needs to make care arrangement..because her visa interview will focus more on the pregnancy and how she plan to combine it with PhD.

She needs to show that she has additional money for the baby.

She needs to find out from the university if they have accommodation for nursing mothers and get the details handy for interview and visa application

I never thought you did, likewise did I think the forex deal was the causative factor....

But the truth be told, rule 19 should be repealed... Majority of Nairalanders at one point or another, have had an alternate account...

At the point of Mods implementing rule 19, the person/people banned, would simply open another account.

So what has the so called ban achieved? Nobody gets paid for historic content on Nairaland......

Justwise, kindly use your wise position to convey a message to seun about updating certain rules....

Thank you.
What you are doing now is exactly why rule number 19 is important, the super mod banned you for using alternative account then you created another account to keep posting.

You were not banned for having two accounts, you were banned for creating another account while serving a ban.

I suggest you deactivate this current account and sort the issue out with super mod.

The money exchange was not the reason for the ban..maybe there is something in missing here?

If you keep posting with this current ID then it will be banned again as it goes against rule number 19

All US Immigration services should do is to delay giving Birth Certificate and Passport to children born from foreign parent. It will stop travelling for birth and all anchor babies drama. Go, give a birth and wait until US government verifies your REAL ADDRESS in USA and No American passport for babies in their first 3 years.

Hello everyone,

Please i need the gurus in the house to help with my refusal.
I had a closing balance of 1.9m on the statement of account used which is also my salary account.
Two clear issues reading your refusal letter.. your budget for few days trip is high and it makes little sense to spend that much in less than a week especially if you first time traveler to the UK.

Second issue is..the documents you submitted did not support your source of income as you stated.

The ECO was not looking at your salary but your disposable income which is significantly low after all the expenses.

Refusal hurts but the more you re-read your refusal the more understand clearly why you were refused.

If you go through everything and believe that the ECO was wrong then you can write letter of reconsideration explaining why you disagreed with the decision
