[quote author=kevwe_flex]Please Oga Justwise, take it easy on Ernestleon, he was trying to help. Initially, he said it was a family member, I don't think he could have shared the contact here. In any case, Oga Ernestleon, take it easy as well. He has the rights to do what he has done as a moderator. Mistakes are inevitable at times. I apologize on everyone's behalf and let brotherly love continue. One love![/quote]There is no big deal here, its just simple, don't drop contact details here, nairaland PM is there for anybody who needs to share something that is not for public consumption, they can rant on but that rule stands.

westcodes: Mr., I understand you are the moderator but did you read through the thread or did you just skipped to the post with the contacts and show us you're MR. Moderator??

Pointless question, i have made my point clear and its simple...do not drop contact details here.

ernestleon: Did you see any of my contacts? And moreover if I intend to share any info who are you to decide how to share it? Or do you prefer I share infos that doesn't relate to the dv 2014 program on the thread? There was a purpose for the Nairaland pm system and I used the system without breaking an rule.And a question for you=will you share the phone number of your wife,fiance here on this thread when you can send it through PM? Read my posts again and you i'll see I did nothing wrong.

Unfortunately for you i will tell you how to share it as far as this section is concerned.

@ernestleon ,XYZZ and westcodes

This place is for sharing info openly, stop the habit of dropping your contact details here

target007: @Justwise: can you please respond to the below questions?

1. What implication(s) or consequence(s) do you think this rule change will have to the life of settled immigrant in UK?

2. Don't you think it may now be even difficult for families or spouses of settled immigrant to travel even on Visitors Visa to the UK as they may just come to the conclusion that family that intend to visit may never return?

3. Does it now means that spouses of settled immigrants may need not worry to apply directly for Settlement visa, which takes ages to get and can even be years if appealing but can now opt to apply for just visitor visa and can take from there?

If question (3) is true, i think this will be a big relieve indeed.

I really don't see much in the changes, allowing family on visiting visa to make spouse visa application in the UK is not much of a change. The spouses still can not work while on visiting visa and i doubt if he or her will be allowed to extend the visiting visa if it expires while waiting for the outcome of the application.

The only good thing is that the family will have each others support while on the long frustrating waiting time

[quote author=mato-justo]@justwise,lamosy,johnwray,girlfio and others,i just want to thank u pple for all the help and advice,i really Appreciate alot. I sent an e-mail to the tribunal last friday concerning the status and progress of my Appeal,and they replied me today stated.

Our Ref:ME

Thank you for your e-mail

We can confirm that the tribunal has received an Appeal and the reference number is quoted above.receipt of payment has been confirmed.

An IA10 (Notice of pending Appeal) was sent to all parties to the Appeal on 12/08/2013,this notice is for information only,as it is for the respondent who originally refused the Application to Action.

The respondent now has until 29/10/2013 to review the Appeal documents that were submitted and decide whether to overtune their original refused decision. After this date the Tribunal will write to all the relevant parties,so that the preparation can be made for an immigration judge to consider the Appeal here in the United Kingdom. So just praying for God's favour. I believe i will receive a positive result in jesus name. I will keep u pple posted if am be called up by the Embassy for visa.i wish everybody with Appeal issue suceess outcome in jesus name.[/quote]I really hope that the decision will be overturned within this period, wishing you the very best. Keep emailing them from time to time just to keep tap on the progress.

uist: Why private email? Please discuss whatever thing you want to say here, so that the rest will benefit from it, that's the purpose of this thread. If you have any info about the country lets discuss it and share idea together for the benefit of everyone on this thread. Thanks God bless

futurewise11: Its definately becuase of language barrier.but my question is why will an average nigerian spend 6,000,000 in uk and after his program he has to back? i think people like angel diamond will shed more light on this issue having studied in the uk before.

Tope coursemate in nigeria,his father based in uk and was strongly against us coming there to study siting high tuition fee to no student job and harsh immigration policy of the british govt.

The reason why they go to uk is because u can easily feel at home in some area of uk,like london,peckam etc and similar language.


[Quote author=justwise]

Even with all that...a lot of people are still choosing the UK, US or Canada over German free education and the chances of getting a stay after 5yrs, so my question is why? Don't tell people don't know about those benefits, it has been like that for many yrs.

Not everybody wants to stay back after studies, many go back to their jobs or look for one, a friend left today after his masters here, a lot of people just came purely to study and go back to Nigeria.

beebee5000: My opinion, its easier to integrate in UK, US or Canada because you dont have the language barrier.

Apart from language barrier, one of the reasons why people prefer the UK, US or Canada to German because those countries have better ranked universities than Germany and if you look at university world ranking German universities are not even in top 30.

@ Bwave

Sorry i have to hide your post, did that because of the post you quoted.

Hope you understand.

Cheers

[quote author=bobo_dudu100]Hey Nlanders..i wanted to find out if a university sponsors someone is it are there some specific things that need to be done with regards that, apart from providing an official document stating their intention to take care of miantenance funds? I also wanted to know if the university needs to pay part of the school fees before putting the application through. thanks[/quote]All you need is that sponsor letter that will state clearly how much the scholarship worth (full or half scholarship)

The issue of paying school fees before applying for visa will depend on the school you are applying to, if they want you to pay part of the fees then yes you have to and get the CAS.

jubel: Thanks to Almighty God.I just picked up my visa after 19working days.Thank u Justwise,Aristocrat,and all.God bless you endlessly.

Congratulations! Enjoy your studies.

futurewise11: That why information is powerfull.alot of people are not aware of all this free education country.
The economic situation in the uk then is much more ok,as in post study visa,student jobs etc.unlike now where post study visa has being cancel,college student cant work etc..

My point is why should someone pay approximate 6m in a uk for bsc and ignore a germany which offer the same course free of charge.

Personally i felt germany has alot to offer than uk.apart from the money aspect,can a student get his stay in uk after 5years?
i doubt it.

I stand to be corrected,but i think that move is not JUST WISE at all.

Even with all that...a lot of people are still choosing the UK, US or Canada over German free education and the chances of getting a stay after 5yrs, so my question is why? Don't tell people don't know about those benefits, it has been like that for many yrs.

aroyem4u: Chiarman u r d one getting him wrong. He's a UK resident Quite alright but he's nt d 1 dat wants to sch. He's sister that wants to sch aint a UK resident and will have to pay international student fee. And since this place's primary aim is to help us all improve and get answers there's no need to chastise any one for his answers...

Move on this issue was settled a page back.

topeajis: Personal and practical opinion man... Uk is much easy to enter but after ur study u coming back home and u knw our nigeria people we don't want to go back home. After the first msc in uk they come to German for another msc cos most msc in uk is one yr which cannot be granted for phd. So most of them have to do another msc..

It took you ages to hit the main point why people 'might' consider German than the UK. When German immigration policy change just like the UK people will start considering another country with 'more' friendly immigration policy.

topeajis: People like UK because na English and another reason is that uk visa is as easy as asking Lagos girls out... And even their admission to school is much easy... Canada and U.S is a country every one wants to be man forget about the cost .. Cos of they own the best economy.. But even the less rich kids in the Canada and U.S.A self don they enter Germany to study so wat u saying sir...

What is your evidence to support such claim or its just personal opinion?

Your argument does not add up, UK visa is easy to get, admission easy to get, so why are people running away from the UK then if its so easy to enter the UK?

futurewise11: I think hes talking about the financial aspect of studying in both countries.since studying in germany is free and is expensive in uk to an average nigerian,so the tendecy that people will be giving preference to germany over uk is high.

Morever,nigerians are cost conscios people.

Germany education has been free for yrs but at the same time people prefer the UK, US and Canada to German education even as it cost a lot more to study in the above mentioned countries

topeajis: Uh he is talking about the sis nt him. People are running away from uk to Germany now self I just hope German govt won't cancel their free education stuff cos even the German kids the free eductaion ish is meant for self no they go school much like that..

Amazing how people throw about comments

riteaide: Yes, if there is a good. Reason . I

...good reason like?

adaobi123: Or in other words, you need a girl to keep you warm during the long winter nights

Angel Diamond: I guess he was trying to say its expensive for his sister to study in the UK as an international student......but however, holding a Uk resident permit or not we can just answer his question and wait to see if he will repeat it again or give reason to doubt him........no one is guilty until convicted......hahaha.........cheers boss.

I can see it from that angle

anyibaba50: I expect that there should be trust on this forum, maybe in time pass you have seen people that said things which are not true and I understand that but I am saying the whole truth. Okay then for peace to reign, let the boy start paying another money for reapplication. And I won't comment on this issue again. It is the boy's call.

....and i'm guessing that your solution is to connect him to that law firm?

ganasy: he was responding to what naijobi wrote. mayb u shld take time n read through his previous posts

You don't get it, my point is...you can't be holding a UK resident permit and still pay as foreign student hence i'm questioning that part of his comment

bamyet: We dont need to be aggressive in replying, I have actually being to Germany many times, I am holding a permanent resident permit over here In UK but its too expensive to study here as an international student thats why I need help. @ Naijobi please be mature, answer only if you can and stop being immature. Waiting for good response from reasonable people. Thanks

Did you read that part? ^^^

ganasy: dis bros neva said he wants to study
.......he needs d info for his sister plssss.........

anonymous26: Hello,

Please i am in a dilemma. I submitted my application for student Visa on the 16th of August in lekki. Making it 18 working days today. My online tracking is still saying it has been forwarded to British high commission. When i called the BHC in abuja they told me my visa application is being handled in sheffield. I emailed sheffield and I emailed the visa info service here in nigeria last tuesday. The info people replied me on the same day saying that my documents were still being verified and then sheffield replied me on thursday to say my application would be considered on that Thursday. I have still not heard anything so I emailed again yest. The Visa Info people told me that my documents were being verified. When i called BHC i abuja they told me that considering it meant that the documents had been verified and they just needed to take a decision. Please what can i do?. The anxiety is killing me

@justwise please help. how long does it take for the documents to be verified.

Nothing. Wait to hear from them, its minimum of 15 working days.

anyibaba50: Are you doubting that I saw the boy at ABUJA or that the boy lied to me or that I am making this all up? Anyway No problem. I don't expect you to easy believe that but it is the truth. I saw this boy in ABUJA!

One of those two.

How can you be holding a UK resident permit and still pay as an international student?

wola44: Transfer the money into your account and run the account for 4 months. Your chance of getting visa if your sister sponsor you is 10%.

Even with that his chances is pretty remote, having money in your account without a proven source will not get you a visa. Does he work, own a business? How much does the sister earn in a year to give him such a amount for foreign holiday?
