Visa approved and received!

First time application
Biometrics: September 16
Decision and collection VFS email: October 6
Passport and visa collected: October 7

Thank you all for your help and input

jmoore:
If you have paid for your visa, you can check it by yourself. You can check if the self upload is available before you proceed to pay for biometrics.

Thank you!

Good Morning All.

Since the PHC submission center is designated as a Premium location, and Document Assistance services are included as part of the package, I would like to confirm if it is still possible for me to self-upload my documents instead. If this is possible, then how can i go about it.

Thank you.

As for where do you plan to stay..if yiu have a host, why not enter their information.

Thank you for your input.

I do not have a host and intend to stay in a hotel. My question is whether it is mandatory to make a hotel reservation and provide the details before submitting the application, or if I can simply indicate that I will be lodging in a hotel without including specific details since I have not yet made a booking.

Good day everyone,

Well done to all contributing to the forum.
I am currently completing my UK visa application and would appreciate some clarification on the following points:

For the question “Where do you plan to stay in the UK”, am I required to provide hotel booking details and enter the hotel information in that section?

In the section on previous visa refusals outside the UK, if I cannot recall the exact reasons given, can I simply provide the date of the refusal along with the type of visa I applied for?

Regarding previous employment history: as an employee of a government parastatal, should I select the option shown in the image below?

Please how do I get a tracking number

I have not received any mail from vfs for the passport sent neither have I been able to do a live chat with them. The live chat keeps saying all agents are busy.

Please what am I doing wrongly

Emmafe:
You ought to include the prove along with other documents not mail.

Please I need help

My passport was returned with a request for physical interview.
When I try to schedule an appointment, the page for MRV rejects my receipt number requesting I input another one. My MRV receipt was generated when visa fee was 64k while it’s showing 72k on the page now.

Please does this mean I have to make another visa fee payment or how do I get past this stage.

Thank you for your response

Please can anyone guide me on how to get past this please
