Visa Alert!!!

Submitted application- 2nd Aug 2021

Gave Biometrics - 9th Aug 2021 (Application transferred to DMC same day)

Received an email from UK visit visas that my application was just received on the 6th of September 2021 ( which was my proposed date of travel)- can you imagine?

TLScontact requested for my passport since i opted for "keep my passport" service - 14th Sept 2021 and that was duly submitted on the same day.

Passport collection email from TLS on 23rd Of September 2021, but i requested that it be couriered to my location.
Passport delivered with Visit Visa on 24th of Sept.

I have been to 8 countries and to the UK 2 times.
Submitted 4 months Bank statement showing my salary deposits and 4 months pay slips ( i recommend you submit 6 months though)
Employer's letter and appointment letter
Host's passport bio-data page and utility bill.

In my opinion, your financial situation is the most important factor in the decision making process.
Before you begin make sure to go around 1 year of information on the thread as all the questions you may have are already on here. Just take your time and you shall reap the rewards.
And most importantly trust in God to grant you favour.

I wish those still awaiting a decision on their applications success.
Congratulations

It's like this people want to see crazy.

They should release my family documents now. They like money a lot, despite the fact that the fault is from them to call or send email they will still rip us of our hard earned money.

I need to petition them, then they will know I don't take shit from nobody.

I see this visa as a miracle.
Application 12/08/2021
Biometrics 13/08/2021
Non straightforward mail 31st/08/2021

Then different negative thoughts started ringing in our heads.
Issues we had;
•mistake in my baby’s consent letter (could be seen as minor)
•hubby was refused in US and two other countries but we tot declaring only one was sufficient and we declared only US.

Those 4 weeks and 4 days we waited for seemed like forever. Waking up with sadness mixed with headache, anxiety, high BP, fear and all sort. But we really prayed, my mum over prayed. Alhamdulilah it’s all joy now.
In fact, it was the non straight forward mail that led me to nairaland because I just needed to mix with pple who can understand me. I mailed a number of pple privately here, all due to my fear. Standard application is indeed something to stay clear of!
I pray other waiting applicants get their visas with joy, aameen.

I want to thank everyone contributing to this forum. Finally, my sister got her Visa after waiting for ever. Lol. Biometric was August 13, no no straightforward. Called them twice and they told me last week to expect it this week. I called again three days ago and they said it’s been decided on and she should get her passport on Friday which she did. I wish everyone success. Ese oo. I will continue to share my knowledge here.

DoubleN:
VISA Alert* VISA Alert*VISA Alert*VISA Alert

Grateful to the almighty God who knows the end of a thing before it even begins. The all-knowing and all-sufficient God!

Family of 5.
CAS Issued: 6th of August 2021
Visa Application: 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th of August 2021 (Applied till about 3 am in the morning)
Biometrics: 9th of August 2021 (Walk-in at TLS Ikeja). Got there with my Family by 4 am and left by about 11:30 am.
Main Applicant: Priority
Dependants: Standard.
Main Applicants Passport Collection email 2:23 pm 17th of August 2021, Passport collected 17th of August 2:50 pm.
Dependants Collection email 3:56 pm 1st of September 2021, Passport collected 10 am 2nd of September 2021pm.

Many of those who applied as a family with the main applicant as priority and dependants as standard all got their passports on the same date as the main applicant. However, this was not our case and it was a very long 17 working days. Made several phone calls to UKVI and One Paid email during this period. I suspect the TLS guy in Ikeja didn't do something right as during the biometric he mentioned something about linking our application together. O Well, that's all in the past now.

Also noticed that the main applicant's decision was in Pretoria while the dependants were done in Abu Dhabi.

No Non-Straight Forward email.
No Interview.

Advice
A small tip for those who will be making calls to UKVI based on my own experience. Use Skype for this and load about $10. Calls from Skype to UK numbers is about $0.075. While I noted that using this process, my Debit Card was never charged for any call.

Except your middle name is patience, please do PRIORITY!!!.

We thank God for helping us through this journey and thanks to all the positive contributors on this platform. For those awaiting a decision, your expectation will not be cut short in Jesus Name. Amen!
Pls how did you supply ur atm details nd press start when talking to ukvi?
