Olisedinma: Please Justwise, I need clarification, does the required funds need to be in the account before the visa application Please I also need to know how to obtain a pre authorization code. Please I need your assistance.[color=#000099][/color]

royal34: no so i guess that's d answer. thanks

royal34: yh . did my first degree there actually.

royal34: Allright, thank you. i have one more issue though. what do they mean by have you ever voluntarily elected to depart the UK? under travel history.

Cavenchy: True that, but most viewings are organised by agents anyways, the To Let signboards are put up by agents. Is there any other way for someone who isn't already in the Uk to get off campus housing online without going through one of them? I just think its safer than paying money to some complete stranger who puts pictures of his aunts bedroom on the internet. Zoopla provides a list of agency lettings so people could choose to visit the actual agents or not. I don't think they(Zoopla) are agents themselves

parisbluefox: Yes sir! It boosts immunity! More of a herbal remedy

Cavenchy: I think I know a good site that can sort you out on proper accomodation, zoopla.co.uk. I think they showcase listings from different agencies. N.B: Its best to find accomodation close to your school, as you would be spending most of your time there. So the maps function and your uni post codes should come in handy.

mun0513: @justwise, @spikesC and other gurus,

I will really appreciate if you can answer few of my concerns.

1) I have applied for Tier 4 Visa on 7th August and since then 11 working days have passed. I haven't got any reply from BHC but only 1 SMS stating that Application has been forwarded to UKVI.
I tried to contact UKVI through email and have received a response that 'My application is still waiting to be assessed by an Entry Clearance Officer'.
Is it normal and should I wait until 15 working days' duration is completed?

2) I have submitted an original bank statement dated: 5th August 2014 with following transactions:

6th July Balance Carried forward
7th July Last Deposit Amount

That's it. No transaction has been processed during 28 days. Therefore, to support this bank statement. I have submitted a bank Letter addressing to Visa Officer, BHC that The Current Balance is so and so which is ending on closing business date 4th August 2014.
I have also mentioned in Additional Section of Visa application form to review this bank letter along with bank statement. Am I good to go?

Your prompt response will be greatly appreciated. This waiting period is killing me

Regards and Thanks in advance

mun0513: Thank you for your reply. True, Let's hope everything goes well and good for all the people in this forum
Justwise, can you please answer my 2nd query, whether I am good to go with the banking documents that I have submitted to support 10 points for maintenance funds.
Thank you in advance.
Regards

parisbluefox: Uncle Justwise plz I need an answer! Will I be allowed to travel with a pack of moringa seed?

ridimic1: im not ere to anounce if im a true giver or to impress people..didnt u read my starting message..i said i didnt mean to brag....my main aim of starting dis thread is because...i jus wna kn how spending feels like in d uk or us as a diasporan..becos i learnt every one abroad esp in the uk are very stingy(akagum )..
if im anouncing my myself then i wil probably be teling u al about any charity work i have done or how i have given to people or so.. or so,,,dats wat we call anouncing

ridimic1: i am intending msc student whose plan is to later settle in the us, i am also a staunch giver(didnt mean to brag ). from what i have gathered is that when you are living abroad ,ur spending is limited and are always proper. a dollar or pound is always meant for something..i also heard people hardly pay tithe and they pay little offerings and all these leading to stingyness..so im asking those in diaspora...will my coming abroad affecting my already built spending nigeria culture, those who are givers ,did it affect you ?becos i dnt wna loose d giving attitude while abroad..thanks

cc justwise,spikec and all my ogas and madams at the tops

Bambamzzzz: Please i need advise on Birmingham city centre because my school is Birmingham city uni

HudsonBanks: Oh no I don't mind at all, its in Guildford Surrey. University of Surrey.

GeneralShepherd: I have searched gumtree for milton keynes and i have not even seen a single room less than 100 pounds per week.

Please justwise ,spikec and other veterans ,I need help with this accomodation thing.

mikkyphp: Lol..i can tell you dont like Hami. but pls lets be objective.
Hami had the line and he did not MOVE OVER. Rosberg turned left earlier to avoid him, then changed his mind while approaching the corner to MOVE OVER right once again. he clearly couldnt have been able to make the corner unscathed without tucking behind Hamilton. Rosberg did it on purpose!

pickabeau1: Lewis has never been able to keep his emotions in check..he may have been in his right but I believe he went across to show nico the boss
Its not the first time.. Will not be the last

"We just had a meeting about it and he basically said he did it on purpose," said Hamilton. The 2008 world champion added: "He said he could have avoided it, but he didn't want to. He basically said, 'I did it to prove a point'."
Hamilton said he was "gobsmacked" by Rosberg's admission.
"He just came in there and said it was my fault," added Hamilton, who returned to the race after having his left rear tyre replaced only to quit with just a few laps remaining

HudsonBanks: Okay thank you, just tried as you suggested and here is my findings; Only 5 recent postings(i.e within the last two months) and the best out of all 5 is a single room for £90/week including utilities, same flat has a double room for £130/week and its a flat of 4.

Guess I'm just unlucky with the town my uni is located. I'll do some house hunting still when I get there & will hopefully find something reasonable.

ProdulyYoruba: Hello Everyone,

I need your candid and professional advice on the best way to go about my visa application.

Below is my circumstance:

My fiancee, back then, was granted UK ILR which she got by the virtue of her dad's Citizenship
and migrated in Sept. 2013.

They both came home a few months ago for our wedding and stayed back for about 2 months but have since left for the UK.
Meanwhile, we did not register the wedding at the time because of the fear of it affecting my visa application because she
is not currently earning the 18,600 pounds that would enable me to apply for Marriage visa. The plan is to register our wedding
when i eventually get to the UK.

She still lives with him over there - in a two bedroom apartment - and currently studies Nursing but works part-time as a Social Health Worker.

In addition, she is pregnant and we are expecting our first child.

As for me, i work in Lagos and i earn =N=1,560,000/annum after tax.

I plan to relocate to the UK to join her next year and i'm at a cross road as to the type of visa i can apply for
that will give me the privilege to register our marriage over there and also get work permit.

Please help me out.

MRbrownJAY: it was a clear foolish and amateurish move from Nico........ Lewis should have been on top of that podium. as for Mag driving Alonso off the road,

Theyjih: https://www.nairaland.com/1482362/general-u.s.a-student-visa-enquiries-part5 .. u sure would get ur enquiry answered all the way.. writing toefl, gre, mcat or not #imho has more to do with the school u are applying to and to lesser extent US embassy so long u have waiver from school duly noted ..

pickabeau1: No ....that was lewis fault in my opinion
He went across to prove a point..punctured his tyre

HudsonBanks: Not exactly sir, who wouldn't want to save some reasonable cash. I tried using the studentpad of my school to search for off-campus accommodation but the amount I was seeing was still expensive, I think the least I saw for a decent(not fantastic but just OK) shared flat of 5 occupants was £90/week, some including utilities some not including. I also tried other sites like rightmove.co.uk and a few others but what I saw was similar.

If you could direct me to another website where I could get something cheaper I would be extremely grateful, I don't mind breaking my contract by December when my school allows it.

ocheejemb: Abeg where, lemme move there. I guess it depends on location, but for Cranfield and Milton Keynes, I dont think its a rip-off. A survey on gumtree or spareroom should help the OP.

LabourParty: Anywhere in Bedfordshire, £85/week for a single room is a rip off. You can get a good double room for that price.

adaobi123: Which area ?

HudsonBanks: Ah Nawa ooo What of some of us that will be paying well over a £100/week for ensuite on-campus accomodation? I guess we can call it All day robbery(both day & night)

School is located in South east England(not far from London) so even off-campus accommodation isn't cheap. It is well.
