@Justwise, pls how much is the visa application fees for UK tourist visa (6months)? also is it advisable for someone that just had her US visa cancelled to apply for UK visa with family? since US no take us and we intend going for family vacation. standing by for your feedback.

thanks

1. Have a look at my their website for visa cost or read two or three pages back here as it has been answered just recently.

2. Yes you can apply but the reason for US visa cancellation 'might' be considered. You might have broken the immigration law for your visa to be cancelled.

It's better to address that in your visa application rather than waiting for the ECO to point it out.

moreover to shed morelight, you want to tell me that a big man his account runs in million and when he wants to go for visa he will start writing LETTER of EXPLANATORY for his account that has cool transaction history and running in millions? let people start reasoning well and forget about fear of visa matter..have you seen any big man/politicians/md's/managers/contractors writing any letter of explanatory for him own money oo?? your profession could speak/determine an expected money that flows in ur account without owing anybody an explanation. SOP has helped people get visa yes, but two of my friends in canada only just filled their study permit questionaire,when i mention SOP for study permit submission, they ask me what is it for? though it would be advisable if your issue has already been complicated..secondary when you are on the right track like ur academic corresponds to ur work and to ur intended program/higher degree and you are at the right age depending on how it applies to the individual, SOP is just cosmetic on a beautiful face. out here people dont do to the extent NairaLand people do their things still they get visa..na our dual intent atimes dey cause to select lower program levels out of our field of study,just to migrate, but though we want to migrate,carefully select your program and program level to firstly avoid red flag and then battle for other complications in your life history to convince the consulars .
i read NAIRALAND i learnt from this forum,though i will be submitting my next application which my GCMS note has specifically pointed the error which i have tackled,i now pray for God's favour
NB: if you are denied 1s, dnt apply immediately without seeking for your GCMS file,its an eye opener in other not to go complicating your applications.

I was reading all this your preaching with the impression that you have your visa already?


I honestly feel sorry for people who come here to get advice because the amount of misleading info here is mind boggling.

mikky4all:
ok bro. U can check as well.

Bro use the current form to apply for them, get documents from their cousin in the UK and their parents then use the blank space to explain that they are been sponsored

Their cousin has to provide documents to proof adequate accommodation for them and things they will be doing while in the UK

Fifi123:
Hi everyone .
"Withraw appeal letter"
Is this means that home office accepted the case, or they may refuse again?
And what percentage of acceptance or rejection?

It means that HomeOffice is not willing to take the case to tribunal, probably because you have provided new evidence which was not included in your first application. So they will contact you again for more information most likely to submit your passport for visa

Arcayo:
You are right, it's his decision if he want to enjoy the 20hr/week work for a year and later use the funds he make to pay tuition then come back to Nigeria to look job or try and take care of the situation now to be able to work towards permanent resident later.
People defer semester/section but I don't believe it's advisable to do it immediately you enter Canada, these people keep records of everything unlike our dear country, you can defer after 1st year in school then blame it on whatever reasonable reasons that you think can save you but if demmypeters1 is not thinking of getting PR after studies good he can even work for a year and half b4 going to school.
Taking risks is not by shooting yourself in the foot or jumping off the cliff cos you think you will land inside water.

You are right its not advisable and it will call into question those financial documents he submitted during visa application.

If you claimed to have the money and have submitted bank statement showing that money during your application then get to Canada and defer your admission and starts working...you are not going to enjoy the consequences.

It makes sense to defer after first year but doing that even before you start your course is risky.

mikky4all:
yes. A cousin. I meant they now have two online visa application platforms. One is new and not user friendly considering applying for minor while the other is just the usual friendly platform.

I'm not aware of that.

mikky4all:
his dad. Can I use the old online visa application form for application since it's still available on thei website and also user friendly compare to the new online application form

All has to be done online now..Are they going to visit relative in the UK?

mikky4all:
filling online application form for a minor 11 yrs old. Question: how much do you spend each month on accommodation, bills, food and loan repayment. This new method of application is just not straight forward. Can't input 0000 or sponsored.

Who is the sponsor?

mikky4all:
thank bro, I meant they not I. Would there be any need for them ( my siblings)to pay for health surge since they will be spending just one month

No there is no need for that as well.

pisca:
@justwise, thanks for the prompt response. Another quick question, what if I book another hotel different from the one I use in applying for my visa, hope I won't have any problem at the POE

Obviously before you do that you must have a reason and if by any chance you are stopped and ask at POE you will explain to them.

People don't normally cancel booked hotel just for fun.

mikky4all:
Want to apply for a 2yrs visa (1 month intended stay) for my siblings 10yrs and 18 yrs old (family visitor). Do I they need to go for tuberculosis test.

No.

pisca:
Hello house, @justwise, can you please clarify these for me. i am planning on travelling with my sis to london in Dec. As part of our visa application, we need to book our accommodation and we plan on staying in the same hotel room. My first question is can i make an hotel reservation using both our names and secondly, after we get our visa, is it possible for us to cancel our hotel reservation ad book another one.
Thanks

Yes you can do all that but check the hotel's cancellation policy before doing that, though its not really a good idea to cancel apart getting your visa.

GeneralShepherd:
Thank you so much for the good work you do here, especially when users like myself give you grief once in a while.

Lastly, how do I prove my mum is actually my mother as I lost my birth certificate a long time ago.

You need to explain that using the blank space and also send the data page of your passport since both of your share the same last name

Part 9 is here https://www.nairaland.com/3103711/general-u.s.a-student-visa-enquiries-part

Good luck!

Here is the part 9 as requested, please continue posting your Q&As here, Part 8 is now 400 pages and too long to read through for many.

Part 8 is here for reference purposes: https://www.nairaland.com/2557843/general-u.s.a-student-visa-enquiries-part



I really have to thank those who stayed back to help even after getting their visas and despite their busy study and work programs in US.


You can also ask VO question in this thread started to help students https://www.nairaland.com/2991174/u.s-student-visa-f1-m1

Good luck!

GeneralShepherd:
Thanks a lot. Will they need to provide evidence that are indeed sisters?

Pictures and chat/email exchanges will really help.

GeneralShepherd:
Both of them will be accommodated by my cousin. What document to I need to show to this effect

Tenancy agreement or mortgage paper

mabella2:
@justwise please help. My mum wants to go for my sister's graduation and she is retired, my brother in US will be her sponsor, does she need her own statement of account. She travelled to USA last year September and came back this February. Please what other documents should I add for her. My brother sent-statement of account, pay slip, tax clearance, employment Letter and photocopy of his US passport data page.
NB-my sis is a uk citizen. Thanks

Accommodation arrangement? Has that been made for her?

GeneralShepherd:
My bank account statement. Both used to live in England in the early 90s but haven't travelled in the last 15 years or more

However, my aunt has a daughter in England that is British. Also my sister is British both by birth

You need to send proof of accommodation as well but if they are going to stay with one of their grand kids then you need to indicate that.

desoul:
i checked for this topic and the last update was in 2015..please fellow nairalanders..any body who recently had a baby in the USA should please advice me on the things to note..such as the hospital bills, especially now that the dollar is high,and any cheaper hospital in Dallas Texas..me and my wife is expecting our first child and we want to have him/her in the US,please kindly advice...

I just checked that thread and the last update was today at 10.37am

fizzile:
As for Coventry University, their condition is:  Provide your WAEC certificate with grade C or higher in English Language or achieve IELTS
6.5 with a minimum of 5.5 in each of the four components.
 Pay 1/3rd tuition fee deposit to secure your place. Refunds will only be given if you are
refused a student visa. The second payment is due before enrolment on the course.
Then for University of Bedfordshire: Conditions: Pre-payment of 50% of the above tuition fees is required to obtain an unconditional offer.
Please provide Skype ID and a personal progression statement which satisfactorily demonstrates your intention to study
MSc Enivornmental Management at the University of Bedfordshire and UK and how you intend to implement your newly
acquired skills on the return to your home country
That Bedfordshire, the ranking is really low..dont really know about the school. Am still waiting for decisions from Sunderland and Salford. Just looking at weighing the options. How are these schools generally? and whats the next step after getting these offers?

You need to look at their ranking so as to decide where to go.

When you finally pick the one you want the next step is to meet the condition of the admission, get your CAS and apply for via.

Read the first page of this thread first.

fkareem:
Dear VO,

My interview date for my B1-B2 is around the corner but I just observed that I erroneously chose Lagos as my passport place of issue instead of Abuja, would this affect me or is there anything I can do to correct this?

Best Rgds

Damolaskynov:
Hi Abuja NIV,
A friend of mine applying for B1/B2 visa realized after submitting his DS-160 form that he erroneously entered Lagos as his place of passport issuance instead of Abuja which was where he obtained his passport. His interview is in Abuja on Tuesday and he's worried that this could cause a concern.
Kindly advise on what step he can take to urgently remedy the situation. Thank you.

Same person?

Steal a mobile phone in Nigeria and get burnt to death but steal millions you get 24months jail sentence.

Crime really pays.

mikky4all:
oh thanks, I grab. Will I have to separate their supporting documents or a supporting document pack will be ok for both while I fill their application individually. I meant bank statement and other. Will I make two copies each or just a copy will be ok sir since one is just slightly above 18. Thanks for ur contribution

You fill their application individually and also submit the same set of documents for both of them.

mikky4all:
Thanks for the prompt response. But considering that the have the same supporting document with my sister having nothing but letter from her school, how am I suppose to seperate the application and pls what other documents will she need to support her been out of underage. Previous she added.
1. Letter from school
2. School fees receipt
3. Result

The rest of the documents will come from you and their parents.

Their parents needs to add their birth certificate and letter of consent.

You need to proof that you have adequate accommodation for them and finance to support them while in the UK.

ciot:
I do not want to banter words with anyone, it is okay to be skeptical and suspicious, but I am not asking you to send me your account number,or personal details . Coaching are tips and best practices that we can discuss and share, hence reason why I started the thread. This is help I am willing to render. People should be careful about SOPs? I am shocked at this because from your SOP, what can I get that would be of benefit to me please?. Amazing!!!

..and that is what i'm asking you to do and let people write and choose who will review it for them.

Constantly dropping your email address asking people to email you their SOP for review is soliciting.

ciot:
It is not about not being able to answer questions openly. Except if you want to do a screenshot of your SOP on the forum or a copy and paste then feel free. The reason i say you should send me an email is because, I believe your SOP is private and if you need help with a review, it is something I can help quickly.

It is an assistance I am willing to render, no one is forcing anyone.

If that is the case then why did you start this thread https://www.nairaland.com/3100796/statement-purpose-schools-abroad-difficult ?

Are you going to coach people on how to write one or review it for them openly?


People should be very careful who they send their SOP for review.

@ciot

If you are unable to answer questions openly here then don't bother at all.

@ichommy

Done.

..but please that post is far too long and will only make this thread longer than necessary.

chupcake:
Been waiting for the day I'll come here to say I've got my visa. Well, today is the day. Picked it earlier. Thanks to everybody from justwise to everybody that ever helped in any way. Thanks y'all. I will come back and write about my experience so maybe someon else can learn from it. Thanks again.

Congratulations! i know the feeling..safe journey and all the very best with your studies

Hadez:
Please justwise help me, I have the same problem. The name on my appointment date is different from the one on my other data. The agent who helped me out made a grace mistake. I have sent a mail and I was told to cancel and reschedule while I did but my profile wasn't updated.

Please help me can I still go for the interview with it having any error? All other documents are correct including the ones on my appointment date. Except from the name. Please help

Did you see this reply the VO gave you in the other thread?

abujaniv:
Hello Hadez,

The name on your passport must match the name on your DS160 application. It is not the Embassy you need to contact but CGI Nigeria.
