Alleluia, he has done it oooo oooo oooo. Visa given. Vignette is 9th Nov to 9th Dec. My case is really different. Wifey did not meet up with financial requirements and I didn't really know despite knowing that she had to cut down her hours so as to have more time for our son.
So I just packaged my accts to send totalling £15900 as added funds from me.
God is faithful, sending my timeline soon.

Congrats. I know its a big YES.

Lamakinde:
Got tls message that decision has been made in the morning while just now I got message that it's ready for pick up. Today is 57th working day.
Well, let me go and see the result tomorrow as my pick up docs is at home.

Hi. I sent mine through DHL on the island. I sent to my hubby and then he included his own documents and properly arranged dem before he sent to Sheffeild.

My package weighed 3.5kg thereabout and i tink it cost me like 39, 300 NGN. So package urs and visit any DHL outlet. Depending on the weight of your documents , you would then know aw much to pay. I trust this clarifies.

Aphrodite007:
Can someone please answer these questions? I know everyone here has sent their documents from Nigeria to the UK. I just need to know how.

I think its more than 45k bt not up to 50k. Am not sure. U wuld need to call them and make the enquiry.

Phoenix77:
Pls house, how much is the TB test at the IOM? thanks

Honestly i dnt think there is any rush. Take ur exam. Pass it. Do the necessary tins so when you put in ur application ur mind wuld be @ ease that you av covered all loopholes. The money no be small moni oooo chai. So i tink u shld just chill a bit and sort evrytin out , fill the forms, arrange your documnets , tag ur pictures etc. Gdluck as you prepare for ur IELTS exams.

House... I just booked my life skills A1 test today and it's scheduled to hold Dec 7. My question is this: can I still go ahead and submit my application and then when the result gets out I send to UKBA or I wait for the result first before submitting. Thanks

Gdmorning everyone. I recieved 2 emails from sheffield this morning. The first one is basically confirming that my application was being reviewed and i wuld hear frm them soon (their usual generic email abi ) . The second email i recieved was informing me that i made an application for a repalcement BRP as regards my initial BRP which was missing hmmmm. i had to ask myself if i have even recieved the initial one let alone to ask for a replacent for a missing BRP. lol. Please dos that have gotten their visa , did u get ds kind of mail. ? Should i just ignore it.

Yes it is. U need to register quickly and make ur payment.

Phoenix77:
Pls house is this the correct life skills test? Thanks much.

Woww sorry bt am on the site and from what am seeeing here the only available date for life skills exam is DEC 07 2017. I think Nov has been booked fully. I dnt know if any center conducts the exam ooo. I know its British Council that has bn given approval to conduct the exam. Please correct me if am wrong.

Also i checked the B1 too. No available dates for Nov as well.

Phoenix77:
Thanks but I'm on the British Council site now and I need to know if I'm to select the academic module or the general training module as it does not display the life skills options please which do I go for.

And secondly does it have to be taken with the British council as the dates being offered won't meet up with my application and set it back by weeks. Pls From the people who have had this experience and taken the test in Lagos. Are there any approved study center anyone knows off and that was accepted by the embassy. This test thing is really stalling my application. Thanks

Hi phoenix77,

Its better you go tru britsh council site. Once u register and choose the required exam and date. It wuld bring out a center for you. Rem u av to do a bank draft for payment. A week to ur test date u wuld recieve an email with ur exam location and time as well. Gd luck
Rem its A1 life skills test. Just speaking n listening. Very easy test which wuld nt last for 20 mins.

Phoenix77:
House pls I'm trying to register for the IETLS test... is there a particular one being accepted at the embassy or I can take it from any accredited study centre??

Hi no need to fret. You still av time . I checked on d site and it says there is 10% availability for Nov 9 2017 in lagos and 74 % avaialabilty in Abuja . Quickly book for it. By the next week the result is out and den u send via DHL express quoting ur GWF REF on the envelope. You expain the siyuation to them as well. It never hurt to try.

Bond140:
@mimimonroe I submitted my application in September and i sat for IELTS general training too. I'm so sorry for the refusal but now I'm scared of my outcome.
Pls is there anyone in the house who has similar problem?

Aww sorry about this. In my own opinion since that was the only reason for rejection, he shld quickly book a date for the IELTS LIFE SKILLS A1 TEST, take it (very easy test. Result comes out exactly one week from test date. Its either pass or fail no grades whatsover) and reapply again. U wuld nt need to pay IHS fee again just visa fee.

mimimonroe:
Hello Everyone,
My husband's application got refused due to English test. I can't believe it.
He wrote the test at the approved center in Ikeja and scored an overall of 8.0 but they said it is a general training training certificate.

Please what are my options? reapplying?
How can I ensure he takes the right one this time?

Thank you

Thanks

It seems the system is been updated/upgraded or having technical issues...

In the interim, pay the money into my skye bank account, I would invest it wisely with MMM (we split the interest)....

Hi everyone. Is anyone having difficulty paying for the IHS Fee. I av bn on it since ysterday . I only took time out amd saw the message on the site. No other choice than to wait for them to resolve it.

Hi everyone. Please i want to confirm if SU07/12 is the only sponsorship undertaking form my hubby is to fill. Is he going to sign it of any where?

Thanks dear. I appreciate . My hubby is d sponsor.

He wuld print out the call logs .

Feeyonce:
Hi, for the whatsapp call, just take a screen shot/ screen munch of your whatsapp calls history. Screen shot alot,maybe up to 6 months back, then print. If you like to do extra, then use an highlighter pen, to highlight your hubby calls,since there are other calls in your whatsapp call history (but that's not necessary, I mean the highlighting)
For normal calls, your husband should contact his network provider to email his call history of 6 months or a year. Then you print that too,and highlight his calls to you.
That's what I and my hubby did, prove of communication is very important, and those guys like documents. Lol
Your ielts is enough, no need for statement of result or certificate. Only if you just wanna include it,either way is ok. I only used my ielts though.
As per supporting letter, If there's any clarification or additional information you need them to know,that's what should be in the letter. My hubby just wrote "to whom it may concern, that we've included the documents we thought are required. However, if they need anymore documents, they should contact us" then he put his phone number.
If your hubby is the sponsor,then there's no need for your bank statement,but you can still include it.

Thanks a lot . I appreciate. Lemme go and stsrt print screening d whole whatsapp log then. It is nt a small sometin ooo. All is well in Jesus name. Yes whats apl messages would be easy to get bt whatsapp call log is another story ooo.

1. No need for your bank statement.

2. Only English language certificate is required.

3. You must provide conversations from 2015 till date. Someone was refused recently for only providing communication from the last few months even though they had been married for years. They want to see evidence from when the relationship started. I provided over 500 pages for Whatsapp messages and calls but usually they say 2 to 3 pages for every month or so is okay. You can email your chat log directly to yourself or any email address from the WhatsApp app, just open your chat window and click the menu (...) and then "More". You should see "Email Chat". Luckily for me my wife saved all the logs even from the first day.

4. My lawyer wrote my support letter but from what I understand you should simply introduce yourself and briefly summarise your relationship like how, where and when you met, how often you have met, when you decided to get married and where you got married. Your spouse may also write a support letter. Some people include letters from their friends and family supporting the relationship, though I didn't do this.

Thank you so much.
I appreciate. Bt how do one go abt printing wtaspp call log frm 2015 . Phewwww. I underatand emails at least one cn print it out bt wats app call log. Dts a long sometin ooo.
Also does one need to include newspaper publication for the change of name ?

Oridiya:
1 his statement of account is just ok
2.No need to add your school result since you have ielts
3. Yes add all your communications from them. 1-3 per month

Gd day everyone , i must confess i find this thread interesting and very educative. So muchto learn for people like us who would be putting in our application soon. I have few questions to ask .
1 . My hubby earns well over the 18600 required from his salaried employment and he has bn employed for over 2 yrs with the same employer. is there any need to include my stmt of acct or savings ?
2. Must i include my original certificate with my ielts result ? Currently ASUU is on strike and i dnt know wen it wuld be called off to go and pik my cert . However i av my original stmt of result . So am thinking of adding my original stmt of result to the IELTS A1 result i have.
3. My hubby and i met in UK 2015 wen i went for my vac and since then he has nt bn bk except for April ds year wen we got married. Do i need to print our emails, wats app chats frm 2015 till date. As per the calls we often use watsapp calls asides his normal line he uses to call how do i print d watsapp call log from then till now.
4. As per supporting letter cn anyone help with a format of how it shld look like . Please

Am sorry to disturb bt i wuld be overly grateful if someone can assist with answers. Thanks in advance.
