*Timeline*

Biometrics: 2019
Medical : Upfront
Applied: 17 February,2021
PPR: 23 November , 2021

Thanks all

Request for your GCMS notes so you have a guide on why you were rejected and work on those areas

Fawaz12345:
Please I need contributions oooo

Amen. Thank you so much

Omiinii:
A decision has already been made on your application. Congratulations in advance.
No knows the outcome but I believe it's positive for you.
You don't need the slip just attach the BVL you just got with the documents you'll send later to abuja. I'm hoping you know the requirements already and the fees to be paid.

Hopefully you'll come back here and we congratulate you properly.

Thank you

KoinsOfLagos:
Most times it’s positive

You’d get a decision soon

Wish you all the best!

Amen ooo. I will definitely drop my timeline. But please do you know how I can go about my missing slip? I intend sending the passport to Abuja

Fawaz12345:
Drop timeline and get your passport ready

Good day house. After waiting for several months for PPR, correspondence letter (BVL) drops with no Final decision attached. what does this mean please? Has anyone experienced this? Are the outcomes usually positive? What are your advice also?
Also my biometric slip was done in Lagos and the slip is missing. What do I do if I send my passport to Abuja to get the visa stamped on it. Thank you

Yes

Anndav:
Amen o

Is your own employer specific work permit

And please when did you apply

Wow. Great news. Shows they’re really working on SOWP I pray they work on closed work permit too

akinajibola:
PPR ALERT !!!!!!!!
Finally I received PPR letter for my husband and daughter today. I filed for both his work permit and my daughter's study permit July 2021. The whole process pulled through, glory be to God !

What God cannot do surely does not exist !! It will surely end in praise !!

Request for GCMS notes. Takes 30days to be received.
I do not think not having a travel history would deny him of getting a visa if he has everything accurate in his documents

atoke2021:
Hello all,
I wanted to inquire how we would know if IRCC has uploaded the supporting documents sent to them via webform. We sent the police certificate and proof of home ties via lagos webform one month after submitting out application but did not get any reply if it is now part of our application.
I would really appreciate any help on what to do?
I also had another question regarding how travel history affects chances of approval. My husband (the spouse applying form Nigeria) has never left the country before. Will that count unfavorably for him?

Thank you for your insights on this issue.

I feel your frustration. Just hold on. Actually Oct 11 is so close for one to get a decision except a miracle happens. Be patient and hope for the best

shams040:
Please my school MP seems to be wicked. I contacted him and he said my wife's sowp is still fresh (applied oct 11, medical passed already) that we should contact him back in May 2022. But now the timeline is at 51 weeks. Really losing it and want to drop this Ph.D.

Please is it possible to apply for a masters in Nursing without any work experience and BSC in nursing. I have MBA in Healthcare management and also going for a masters in public health

idolda:
Why not apply for Masters in Nursing with preregistration? After completing this you can easily get your licence and apply for a Tier 2 visa which is a cheaper alternative than post study work visa route which is not counted towards ILR

Hello, do you know of Job opportunities in Bedfordshire? Also for visa applications if the main applicant applies via priority and dependants via standard, will all applications be processed as priority or just the main applicant

barons68:
Lancashire has better job opportunities

Thank you

Gigli:
It's advisable ypu all apply together instead of just you and your child

Yes your spouse will need to.write a consent letter to support the joint account.

You can't use spouse account if he is not applying with you.

Can someone help with this please

LadyIE:
Good day all,
For medicals Can one schedule and do TB test in advance even before getting CAS?

Also I am Trying to prepare my POF.
Applying with dependent (child).
Spouse will apply at a later date.

Bank accounts to be used are
1-joint account for me and spouse's
2- Spouse account.

1-Is joint account ok? If yes does spouse need to provide consent letter authorising use of funds for studies?

2-Should spouse transfer the required funds to my account or can it be left in spouse’s account as my spouse will not be in the same application with me and child at the same time.

If spouse is to transfer the funds to my accounts must there be activity on the account for the 28 day period?
Your response is highly appreciated

SirWellington:
From the little I know, if while filling the dependant form, the said spouce had highlighted the country he/she will be applying from and then proceeds to do the biometrics in that same country, that won't be a problem. In all, the country selected while filling the dependant application form is where the dependant is to do their biometrics.

Hello all,
Is it possible to submit family visa application together while the biometrics and medicals of one of the spouse would be done in a different country from the main applicant? Thank you for your kind response.

Thank you. Please do you know the school your friend applied to?

Yemzzyy:
No, I know someone that had an MSc and is currently doing Bsc nursing in the uk

Hi all,
Someone who already has a BSc in sciences and MBA now decides to go into a new field of BSc Nursing , will this be a challenge in getting study visa ?

Ok. Thank you

Ginykamark:
It may be peculiar to the school, I’m going for social work and I know a lot of schools give admission to international students.

Hello gurus, can someone help with this response as I don’t know if it’s difficult to get admission in social work so I change my course immediately. Thank you

LadyIE:
Hello all, I applied for Masters in Social work and I got this response from the school [Unfortunately, we cannot accept applicants who require a Student Route (SR) visa onto the MA Social Work. This is because the work placements for this programme amount to 170 days unpaid, and constitutes more than the 50% limit imposed on students studying on a Student Route visa. Similarly, we cannot accept applicants who intend to use Student Visitor Visas for this course, as this visa is normally only valid for six months and so does not cover the entire study period required to complete the MA Social Work. Please confirm whether you would like to be considered for a different, full-time course, or if you would prefer to withdraw your application. You can check the full range of courses we offer at https://www.ntu.ac.uk/.]
Does this clause mean international students can’t come in for MA in Social work?

No I’ve not gotten admission

labelle27:
@ladyIE,pls have you gotten us visa for heriot watt,also does the school requires 50% on enrollment? Pls anybody with info about the school and environs should help ,I need to make a decision before paying .thanks

Thank you so much for taking our time to answer my questions. Please for the account being a joint account, can an account which I’m a signatory to be used? Although if the statement is printed, it would bear my spouse’s name. Is it possible to attach a bank statement saying I’m a signatory to that account? Or it’s just safe to make it a joint account

Patnuel2015:
Hello,
Let me help answer some of your questions and make clarification to the issues.
To this question ( How much should be minimum balance in statement of account?
Maintenance £9207
Tuition balance for 1st year £12 ,000
Total = £21,207).
What you wrote was totally correct, and you do not need to provide POF for subsequent years of studies. Even if your program is 4 years, you only provide one academic POF.
Again, as long as your maintenance fee is in the PoF, you don't need to prove any accomodation as your accommodation is already considered in the monthly maintenance cost.

As for your statement, you can print it today, and it will still be valid till next 31 days to application.
You can have your PoF in multiple statements as long as the accounts belongs to you. If part of the money is in your spouse account, it is supposed that the account should be joint account of you and your spouse.

To your number 4 question, mmmmm, it's a little bit technical but let me try to explain it.
You can not use same account you use for your application to apply for your wife's application since she is applying for student visa. I suggest you transfer the money to her account, to be on the safe side.

To your final question (q.5), You have to show sufficient PoF for each of the child. I don't think the kids being American citizens undermines you from showing their Pof.

Please I stand to be corrected in any of the answers above.
Thanks.

Hi all
I have read page 1 of this thread but need some clarification on POF ( proof of funds)

If School is outside London
2 years masters programme
School fees per year is £15,000
Maintenance for 9 months (1023*9)= £9207

Before visa application

Deposit before CAS = £3000 (remianing 12k which can be paid installementally)



How much should be minimum balance in statement of account?

Maintenance £9207
Tuition balance for 1st year £12 ,000

Total = £21,207

1-Is this value correct?
Or should the balance include the total fees for the 2 years programme?
Should it also include accommodation or is accommodation already considered in the monthly maintenance cost?

2-
If am to submit on 1 November from what date should the minimum balance have been in my account?
Is it 1st or 3rd September to say 30th September?
Also the statement can it be printed 1 day before submission or can be same day as submission?

3- Can one submit multiple accounts statements if part of the money is applicant and a major part from spouse.

4- After student applicant gets visa can the spouse same account used to support student applicant ...but printing out an updated statement?

5- For kids who are USA citizens and plan to apply same time as spouse must we show sufficient funds for them?

Thank you

Ok. Thank you

Netbrina:
It is better to prepare different SOP and tailor it to why you choose that particular school and course of study.

Good evening. Please when applying to different schools using UCAS, should I use one SOP for all the schools? Or I have to prepare different SOPs that would address the individual schools. Would appreciate your response

Good day house. When applying to schools There is request to state the available funds that would be used to sponsor your study.
Am i to state the entire balance in my bank statement? Or just a balance that would be required to pay my fee and 1 year maintenance.
Also, Is it ok apply directly to a school that accepts applications from students and also apply to the same school via UCAS?

If it is not possible to apply twice from different sources which is better ? Applying directly to the school or via UCAS
Thank you

Thank you

Self Funded

Hello my people, I am applying to a school and there are different options on how the fee would be funded. The options are;
Self-funded
Funded
Partially funded
Seeking fund
My spouse would fund about 75% of the fee while I would fund about 25%. What option should I go for?
Thanks for your swift response

I don’t understand what you mean. I’m yet to apply. I just saw this information on their page

Pascalsmith:
It simply mean they can’t give you admission because the course is not accredited

Good day all, I am trying to apply for a post graduate program and found this clause on the school’s website. Please what does this mean as I’m totally new to UK procedures. Thank you.
“Please note: This course does not meet the UK Visas and Immigration requirements for Tier 4 sponsorship and therefore we cannot progress applications from candidates who require a Tier 4 visa under the Points Based Immigration System”
