Hello everyone, pls I want to seek your advice on UK study. I have a Bsc in Political Science, graduated in 2015 with second class lower division with a GPA of 3.04 on a 5 scale. I have IELTS score Band 6.5 overall and each with only speaking 7. I am a member of Nigeria Red Cross Society and have volunteer experience in Community outreach programs. My intention is to study Masters in Social work or a similar course on Caregiver/Care support role.
I just want to enquire on

- Is my overall IELTS Band 6.5 good enough for Masters in Social work?

- Pls do you know Masters courses that are similar to Social Work that I can study?

Yes Gtbank. It doesn't matter if your account is active or not.

Visionare:
Kindly visit any branch of the bank where you did your BVN. They are the only one who can change it. Visiting other banks will only have them change the email of your account with them; not the one on your BVN.

Enjoy!

Perfect! he can reasonably explain this there as well with a bit of details.

eg i have been volunteering as a substitute teacher(or whatever capacity) in ------------ school since --------- date. i teach English Language to children in Primary --------- .

The school can substantiate this with a reference letter as well.

Mannymanny:
You did not upload anything to cover your study gaps when u uploaded your docs initially??

offwego:
The evidence required is expected to cover an 11 year period. He should provide the evidence he has up until when he left work. this is still substantial as it covers a 10year period. do you know what he has been doing since July? If he has been doing any volunteer work he can reasonably explain this, if it is also that he just decided to take a break and refresh since July he can also reasonably explain this.

duchess90:
Hello

He should submit the employment documents he has since 2011

He may wish to add an additional cover letter stating what he has submitted and that he hasn't been in any active employment since then whilst preparing for his master's

The second isn't compulsory
Cheers

Thanks for this,but how can I link my Gmail to my bvn?Am not sure my bvn is linked to my mail.

QuantAnalyst:
Hello house,

For self service appointment, what document should we take to the tls appointment? We have uploaded pretty much very necessary documents online.

Kalakris:
Okay. I also hope that if one pays for DHL delivery and eventually changes dates, that the DHL payment will still be valid?

IPDaley:
Hi everyone.

Please if I chose self-service for my biometrics, I hope there's no issue with amending my appointment date after I have uploaded my documents?

Initially, I chose the closest available date in late August, but after uploading everything and coming back later at night, I saw a closer date, and I amended it, I'm hoping it's fine.

Thanks.

Good morning,

Please, I need your advice.

I printed my SOA on 25th July, it covered (22nd June to 21st July, 2022). I paid for both IHS and Visa application fees on 27th and 28th July respectively. I got TLS appointment for 11th August, 2022. Do I need to reprint my SOA to cover a closer date to biometric or I should go ahead and upload the same SOA I have printed?

I await your prompt advice.

Thank you.

I didn't upload POF for dependents and forgot to download, fill, sign and upload the online consent letters. I was afraid when I read here that those two mistakes are enough grounds for refusal. I read this part 7 everyday from page 1. But we really prayed that we don't want any NSF.

sitcom101:
turn your phone horizontally so you see a spread of dates. go to august, all the dates you see the "sold" orange tag means those are dates that time slots can pop up. for now you have to pick whatever date you see and then amend later. i think there are time slots for Aug 20th or so.
hope this helps.

but you have to put your phone horizontally or use a laptop

sitcom101:
you have to pick a TLS service at step 1, either assisted or self service, then the icon will allow you click to step 2 and 3 respectively then you can book a date.

sitcom101:
the linked icon is what you will click on. i assume you are using your phone , if you turn it horizontally you will see the linked icon change to book appointment. from there you will choose the service you want from tls and then book a date.

if you can use a laptop please do its better.

giselle237:
There’s no why. He can print 23rd of June if he likes.
The count is 28 days. Nothing to understand apart from the rules on www.gov.uk
Except you are worried about the weekend not showing up on the statement then thts another angle.

Davidandgo:
Please don’t mislead him. He should print from 25th like he intends to.

Read through this thread to understand why.

abuhusna1:
Yeah i wanted to write 25th till 24th.

------------------------------------'
Ok, Back to the main gist ;

I submitted a proof of Fund from 1st of May to 30th of May.. (30 days pof)

On the 3rd of June , Someone here said she was refused because she Applied and paid both Visa and IHS 5 days to her POF maturity of 28th days .. when i saw it, I was devastated because I applied on the 17th of May, Paid both Visa and IHS same day...but printed from 1st to 30th of May which means I only held it for 17 days .. MOGBE!!!��‍♀️�‍♀️

I became so worried , but Thank God for God , @duchee90 and @Mosinmiloluwa that came through for Me and gave me hope for NSF .

Kindly note, My pof has been in my account since March, Paid my full tuition fees in April ... submitted my pof for cas ... from March 30th to 27th of April ( Cas was given on the 12th of May)

Hence , NSF became my everyday prayer cos I really needed it to print another POF for them .. infact I've informed my account officer I'm coming to the bank very soon .

When I got the first NSF for my 10 years study Gap , I kept on praying for the second one so I can send the POF to them .. but it's didn't come . On the 28th of May I made a paid mail and I was told decision has Been made and Collection mail dropped! How ? Why ? Without NSF for the POF ? That was when I realised what my school told me then that they are sending my documents with my POF and Bank Reference letter to UKVI for my CAS , so it has to be up to date .

Documents submitted : Passport,POF, Degree Certificate,Transcript, Neco Certificate, Change of Name , Marriage certificate , TB Certificate, IHS and Visa evidence of payment, Cas file ,checklist , Visa Application form ..(Infact I uploaded enough documents for them )

Dependants: hubby - his POF , Marriage Certificate, Biodata page, family pictures in a file , TB Certificate
.
For the kids: Hubby POF, Consent form signed by both Parents, biodata page, birth Certificate, TB Certificate.


I declared 2 Canada study visa refusal 2015 & 2016
1 UK Visiting visa 2021 December.

The kids also declared UK Visitor visa refusal ..

It was Only Hubby that was given the Visitor Visa and He Spent just 2 weeks

All declared !!


I'm just so happy seeing our passports with visa stamped in it ...

It's a dream comes true Fam...

Like what Pastor Jerry said on NSPPD on the 6th of June : He said.. "STOP THE FEAR , NOTHING WOULD GO WRONG" I held on to the word and God Came through for me and my Family ...

I'm also saying to everyone here waiting for their Visa that You should "Stop the fear; Nothing will go wrong .

As we are Investing into our future and that of our Family , May God Smile on Us and Ours�May We All Eat the Fruits of The UK Land . Amen

Sunderland.. He We Come .. You Must Favour Us �

Thank you so much Everyone, God bless �

I think the CAC has to be active on the portal, some people on this forum said they were refused based on that,it’s better to learn from peoples experience . Please leave the CAC out, or see other peoples take on it. quote author=Kellyd2 post=114753331]Please advise me on what to do here. I work with my husband and the company is registered with his name and my name as shareholders. I got a reference letter from our company stating that I’m a staff of the company, for admission purpose. Now I want to apply for visa, should I get a reference letter as a staff to cover study gap or should I present myself as a shareholder and submit the CAC certificate.

The company is registered but inactive on CAC portal
