How much is your total school fees?

[quote author=ingred][/quote]That statement is not complete, can you write out what the ECO said completely?

Chaze85: Pls I paid my skul a deposit of 990pounds plus deposit of 240 pounds for accomodation,is it deducted from my tuition fee and maintenance fund?

Chaze85: Hello guys pls I have a question
1. I enter my money in my own account last july 4 when will be my 28days?
2.I entered 18k pounds but the total amount should be 18100 pounds for the total amount am I going to have a problem with that?
3. I'm planning to submit my online application on august 4 but just now I learn that I need tuberculosis test and my start date fir my course is on sept 8 do you think I still can make it through? Thank you guys

Since you have paid £240 for accommodation you will be fine as far as maintenance money is concerned.

@Adeboy007

I have to edit your post to stop people from quoting it only to type: 'Congrat bro or wow'

sunnychic: Hi all @ justwise
The letter we received, the tribunal said they have not heard from the Sheffield office. But still went ahead and sent the letter as per the deadline date. But they said they haven't heard from the visa office. This visa office have still not replied us.
Why ain't they replying us or even the tribunal? Is it still this backlog? What do we do now?

It does happen, many have gone that process of waiting for Sheffield office to contact the tribunal and the annoying waiting time.

Have you contacted the Sheffield office?

rukkiat: Pls I need your advice I have been to UK twice my second time of going to UK on my 2yrs visa I spend 8weeks instead of 3weeks I said in my form now d visa has expired and I want to renew I'd there any probability that am going to get d visa or can I write a letter and tell them d reason why I spend 8weeks instead of 3weeks
Pls I need ur advice urgently cos am abt to fill d form thanks [color=#000099][/color]

Its not a good thing, it doesn't look good in your immigration profile, you probably will be forgiven if you are a student or a house wife with no commitment back home to rush back to, but for somebody with a job or own a business it will cast doubt to everything you stated in your application form.

If you are employed and on leave..staying 8wks will put a question mark on your job claim, if you own a business and you spent 8wks on leisure trip that is not a good sign of a serious business owner. Prepare your reason for staying that 8wks because you could be stopped at the POE and questioned , it has happened to many before, it got nothing to do with you over staying your visa or not. Its a matter of individual circumstances and the info you stated in your form during the application.

justabox14: Please, experts in the house ,l need your help. l have a Nigeria international e-passport which would expire on 24th December 2014 and l have used it to travel many times since 2010 when it was issued. l would like to apply for a-tier 4 visa for a PhD program in July 31st 2014. Do you advice if l should renew my passport or use this present one to apply for the visa ? Thanks

You need to renew it first before applying.

damsamty16: Good evening house,i have been trying to pay for my visa fee since yestaday but it was unsuccessful.Fortunately at noon today it went tru and i printed my stuff out..bt the unfortunate part is that on getting to the gate i was not allowed in bcoz it was already past 3pm.Please all,can i go to the embassy for my appointment on monday? i hope i will be allowed in for my summission.
Thanks

I don't see why you shouldn't, go on Monday with your appointment slip and explain to them at the gate what happened the last time you came to submit

henrychubayo: Please I need answer to this question. Is insurance required for UK visa for 2 weeks?

Not necessary, you will not be refused if you did not add it.

sashacoleman: Hi Guys,

I applied for my tier 4 visa on the 3rd of July at the new VI place and till now I haven't heard anything from them. I am meant to travel out of the country next weekend for work and would need my passport. I called the UK Abuja number and was told that all VI applications are sent to Sheffield, please I need to know if there is a strong possibility that my passport will be out before Friday next week. I am so so worried. I had no idea it would take this long....

Your thoughts please...

Summer is a busy time and application sometimes takes longer than 15 working days, you should have applied easier enough, finger crossed you may be luck to get it next week

milychocs: Help please!

When filling the visa application form..at the question that asks how you intend to show you have the required maintenance fees...I filled in statement of account and reference letter.....
I later learnt here that the bank ref letter is unnecessary if the stated account is mine. It is

But I had already submitted
At the bank today I was told the reference letter is for current accounts only . Mine is savings. I was also told my statement is good for the process.
So I have only bank statement of account

But I am worried about possible penalties for not being able to provide the letter I stated I would next week.
Please what do you guys suggest I do?
I am thinking of writing a letter saying I did not know ref letter is for current account holders when I was filling my form? Is this okay? Or is there any other suggestion?
Thank you.

If you met all requirements then not submitting ref shouldn't be a problem. Its not part of requirements.

dove30: Yes justwie i guess the application was done late but please what is the way out from your experience can the go to the embassy monday morning to speak to them.

I'm not sure that will make any difference, not sure they will attend to them without pre-booked appointment. They can give it a go, who knows...

dove30: Hello guys please my parents submitted visa application to come for my graduation on the 4th of this month.my graduation is next week Thursday .we called the customer service in Lagos but no one picked.we now called Abuja and was told that the application is in Lagos and the confirm it had not been assessed due to back log they are having.i was given an email to email Lagos which have done but my worry is that they sometimes don't answer this email quickly.please can my parents go to the embassy in Lagos on Monday taking along the tickets which is for Wednesday and the vfs papers stating that the graduation is on Thursday and they are living on Wednesday.please i would welcome all ideas and information from you all cheers.

You applied too late, that application should have been made at least a month in advance.

agates: @ justwise please I would like to make a clarification about the statement of account.
1. Does the opening balance have to show the complete funds. For instance I m supposed to have 20000 pounds as maintainable and fees now I deposited 10000 pounds on the 19th into my account. When I printed my statement after 28 days it shows opening balance as 10000 pounds but closing balance as 20000 pounds.
2. Do I wait for an extra day to print the statement so it shows opening balance as 20000 pounds and closing balance as 20000 pounds too.
Or it really doesn't matter. Cos then again I read here that the money that made ur total Fees complete has to show.
I m a bit confused my interview is on Monday

Your 28days counting starts from the day you deposited the complete money into your bank account...e.g, if your total maintenance money is £200 and you deposited £100 on the 1st of July and another £100 on the 5th of July..your 28days counting starts from 5th of July and NOT 1st of July.

sunnychic: Good morning all.
Has anyone considered the Surrinder Singh route to settlement? Any thoughts on this?

Its not easy to take that route if the sponsor got a job already in the UK, moving to another EU country to start life afresh briefly is not an easy decision to make.

Were they living in the UK as legal or illegal immigrants? What sort of visa were they holding throughout that 17yrs?

baddoski: @justwise good day new here please i want to know if i can still apply for my tier4 visa since my passport is expiring jan 2015 .

It need to have at least 6months validity in it to be used for visa application.

paradisewoods: @Justwise: Please can i do my tuberculosis test in Ghana, I will be traveling to Ghana for my gre test so i intend doing the TB test there too and besides its cheaper . Thanks.

I'm really not sure about that but i think you will be able to do it in any country as long as its one of the hospitals recommended by British embassy.

Joenice: @Justwise, greetings. I can't log on with my phone. Seems like my phone is no longer supported on nairaland. So sad.
