Hello @justwise please is there a thread for tier 4 general student Dependebt uk visa? Kindly link me up if there is one. Thanks

@justwise

OK... Here is it.

My dream is to get an Education in Canada.

I finished with a second class lower in Applied Geology 2014 (2.92 to be precise .. )

Age: would be 28 by next year.

I did my IELTS and made band of 7.0

I've applied for admission to Marine Institute New Foundland for Advance diploma in Water quality.

I've been offered Provisional Admission.

Now from all these I've been reading here, about getting study permit For Advance diploma after a BSc.. I am practically weak, I feel like giving up before even starting.

I practically sent mail to all the schools that offered Msc related to my course all turned me down. Loads of regret mails they all requested for a 2.1...

What do I do as I plan to submit my application in June... ? Has anyone been successful through this my type of scenario?

I've spent and I'm weak already...

This is study in Australia thread.

You are better off studying master in Canada than postgraduate or diploma course.

Unfortunately Canada schools only admit 2.1 directly to master.

My friend it's a gamble applying to study to study diploma or graduate diploma or graduate certificate in Canada, very low chance of getting visa.

Do not waste your chance. Research other better countries.

Thank you for the response.

However, do you have a documentary evidence for this you could signpost me to? I couldn't find any information explicitly (or implicitly) stating this. It would be great if you could assist with this. I wouldn't want to travel out after switching to Tier 2 and my dependants be refused entry because of this.

bjayNL:
@justwise I have read a lot of this posts.. But I need to ask you direct questions before I continue its really urgent DP you have an email or how do I reach you
So you can give direct comments

@justwise:

I am currently in the UK on a Tier 4 visa expiring in January 2019. Same goes for my dependants. I have now gotten a job and intend to switch to a Tier 2 visa. However, I am not able to apply for my dependants at the same time as myself, and am wondering what the grace period is for my dependants to switch to Tier 2 dependant visas, in order for them not to become illegal.

In other words, can I switch to tier 2 now and switch my dependants at a later date e.g. a month or so before their current visa expires.

Many thanks

Can we talk via email bro

Thank you Justwise for all you do here. Wish I could send you a proper grilled turkey compliments of the house.

I pray for success for those that are embarking and those that are planning to embark on their missionary journeys.

Compliments of the season.

My child is a nationality of another country, where is his or her identity? Why do we do things that affects our future negatively?

1. Apply for a B1/B2 Medical visa, go with evidence to show that you have a hospital,doctor and funds to cover accommodation, medical treatment and any other incidences. (This is popularly referred to as' Burden of proof' on this thread).

2. Be honest during the visa interview about your intention to give birth in US.

3. At the POE, you are expected to go with your burden of proof and be well prepared to answer questions to avoid deportation. Note : It is not a crime to birth in the US. It is a crime however if you conceal this fact from your visa officer (VO) or Customs and Border Protection (CBP). This act is considered misrepresentation and can result in deportation and cancellation of visa and sometimes a ban.

4. After birthing. Kindly pay ALL your bills and ALL your baby/ies' bills. Do not accept medicaid. Although your Child acquires automatic citizenship, it is presumed you were not allowed on the shores of America to add to their financial/Tax burdens.

5. After birthing , you follow the steps for getting a US passport, Nigerian passport/Visa /Travel documents for your child.
If your child's travel document is his international passport, you require a dual way ticket.


EMERGENCY TRAVEL DOCUMENT (ETC)

1. Cost - $270 plus $20 for post office or $30 for FedEx

2. Send the following supporting documents:

- 2 passport photos of baby.
- Copy of parent's Nig. passports (data page)
- Birth certificate (copy)
- Itinerary and Letter of consent for ETC.

and address it to:
The Consular Officer, Embassy of Nigeria,
Washington DC 20008

You can use this Sample Letter but please edit it to make it yours

Dear Sir/Madam
We the parents of ...wish to apply for Emergency Travel Certificate for him/her to enable us take him to Nigeria. Due to logistics reasons we are unable to process a Nig passport at this time. Thank you for your assistance.
Yours truly, (sign and also write your full name. Spouse to sign too).

Hello. We don’t normally post in this thread, but it seemed worthwhile to drop in and correct some misconceptions. We say this a lot, but it bears repeating: Birth tourism is legal in the US provided the applicant is open about their intention and pays the medical expenses in full. This means that the applicant should declare any such intention they have at the Embassy/Consulate and again at the port of entry.

If it happens that the applicant gets pregnant well after the initial visa interview, they will have the opportunity to make their intention, medical preparations and financial resources known at the POE. However, it will remain up to Customs and Border Patrol whether to allow that applicant into the country. Some are not, and they are put on the next flight home. This must be extremely uncomfortable for a heavily pregnant person, to spend 15-20 hours on a flight to America, several more hours being questioned, then another 15-20 hours on a plane home. This is what we want to avoid.

Onto some other misconceptions:
The concept of the “change of intent” letter is not valid. These e-mails are not read nor correlated with the applicant’s file. Some people who send such letters may get a form letter in response, but it is informational in nature and in no way confers permission to amend the declared purpose of travel. What matters is what you declare at the Embassy/Consulate and at the POE. After the fact e-mails do not carry any weight.

Some applicants say, “I applied for only the B2 visa to declare my medical intent.” The B1/B2 visa categories are conjoined, so applying for only one does not make any difference. Other applicants say, “I appeared at the window with a big belly,” as if this alone is enough to declare their medical intent. Again, the responsibility is on the applicant to be honest about what they plan to do in the US.

Other considerations:
Medical care is expensive in the US, and costs can escalate dramatically if there are complications.
Credibility is paramount in the US visa process. If visa officers detect any deception or obfuscation, no amount of excuses, documents or receipts will make up for the loss of credibility.

Wow, you mean people actually testify falsely that they have gotten TRV when they haven't? Chai, I have always wondered what sinning against the Holy Spirit is. I think this is it. This kind of false testimony just makes God block all doors for the person.

Doctoropera:
I need your help seriously people. I'm applying for UK visiting visa. My step brother with different surname is sending me an invite and sponsorship letter coupled with his bank statement. Do I still need a prrsonal bank statement? I'm also a final year student, do I also need an introductory letter from my HOD? thank u all

jelmusboy:
Which one am I supposed to use to apply for visit visa (6 months)? Just confused about the two links

Lamide123:
21000/year that is 1750 euro per month. After all deductions his take home might be around 1450.
It is a big money in Nigeria, one cannot survive with this in Ireland even if you live in a shared apartment.
Remember your family back home will be expecting something too

MRSHYCAT:
I have been following this thread, and I know for sure he never said he is getting married for the papers. you're the one calling the marriage a fraud. He said he doesn't having a kid with her and also living with her for good. Now part of his fears is if she decides to jilt him because of the lack of trust. This is also an issue to him because he is gonna leave his life in the middle east to start a new one in US. I'm not against your opinion, but don't call it a fraud when you can't read the heart of the man. He is a man with brain. He is only planning his alternative just in case things go south. Nothing is guaranteed in this life.

MRSHYCAT:
Marriage's everywhere in this world is a union of interest. [b]He has his reason or reasons of getting married to this said woman. [/b]You're not sure of his intentions. except you can read minds. However, people get married for different reasons, some people want kids to carry their legacy to the next generation, some love, some money etc. You cannot question his intention of getting married to the woman because its not your duty. He only came to the forum to seek something like a professional advice on how to migrate after marriage, and I expect you advice him if you like or you can also keep mum. Its his life, whatever he does with it is his cup of tea. Maybe when he asks for moral advice, you can raise this points you have raised up there. for now , guy man needs travel advice, which is still within the context of this thread and forum. Tankyo!!!

Bede2u:
Marriages end all the time

Yes I can if there are other things to gain from the marriage. Could be happiness, wealth, influence and/or fame. For instance, I can marry Rita Dominic, Kate Henshaw, Omotala and Genevieve Nnaji She is actually 13 years older than me with 2 baby daddies. Macron, the president of France is married to a woman 24 years older than him, with 3 grown children. We are to believe the marriage is because of love only right? Afterall Macron is white and cant do anything questionable. Is it possible Macron was fvcking an older, married woman and eventually married her for career advancement and politics? Dont answer the question. Who we go ask?

If u do that, am sure u have other reasons cos the thread is exactly what it is.

Thing is,no time to visit their office,that's why I'm trying to make the necessary researches online

Ayomideen:
Good day Nairalanders

I was recently sent an Iphone8 from the U.S through FedEx and I was called by a FedEx employee this morning who requested for my Air waybill code and Answer to the security question after he confirmed I was the one on the phone,he then later told me I had to pay #11,300 Naira for the customs import duty fee and said I have to pay within three days or else the package will be returned.I haven't used FedEx before so I don't know how it works, made some research on their site and found out that the import duty payment duty thingy was real.
So,anyone who has used the service before, can you enlighten me more as I'm not satisfied with the little info I got on their site.
Thanks

Mods please help me move this to the right section if this is the wrong one.
