Good evening all!
@justwise and other Gurus here pls help a brother.

I have started my 28 days count for visa application. After 4days of the count i realised that the account had been on PND and I quickly asked them to remove it(PND).

Today is the 11th day of my count, pls should I deduct the 4days of being on PND from the 11 days or I should continue counting?

@All Gurus here, I hope this won't lead to visa refusal? Pls advise a brother.

Thanks as I expect your kind response on this.

This is not am issue...keep the counting going. Some accounts have PND from day one to day 45

Hello Great people.

Please kindly help out with the fastest means of paying tuition fees.

I got an info from my account officer that paying through Form A will take up to 3weeks before it reflects in the university's account.

Please I need your suggestions on alternative means and possibly the exchange rate.

I made use of keystone bank and it took just 3days

Olawale1993:
Please for assisted services, do they upload your checklist for you @Justwise and other gurus

No...You upload that yourself

Kemifaj:
Good evening house,I have marriage certificate and New paper for change of name, is there need for change of name affidavit for visa application.

Yes you need to do an affidavit for change of name. It goes with change of name for newspaper.

Olawale1993:
I did my biometrics today and cas letter wasn't asked at all. Hope no iss gurus

Not an issue...some people decide to add it just for formality sake.
What is required is the CAS Number.

Sammybliss23:
Good afternoon all. Paying for vi centre (the 55pounds) seems difficult. Please, who has successfully made payment on the site. Secondly paying for priority, can I pay wen I get there? Cos it's not going too? Any suggestions??

It should be the site or network.
You can only make payment online.

Dumebi213:
I plan to use VI too but I'm re-considering it now because reports from VI is that it's also getting messy too

It's not getting messy...I was there today and they were in order... Just come on time and write your name for walk in
If you are on appointment then it's a smooth sail for you.

PointBlank13:
Pls can you make this payment in Naira at the center with the prevailing rate?

No you can't
Make use of a dom Debit card which your bank will issue to you when you make that request...But ensure you credit your Dom account

PointBlank13:
Hello house, Pls, I want to be cleared on this issue: we have walk-in in Ikeja and they charge 42k same as VI. But why do people talk about extra chages at VI? Is it that they charge more because I have heard of payment of £55 for biometrics.

They charge £55 for making use of TLS VI CENTER but it's free for TLS IKEJA ...but you still pay 42k for walk in irrespective of the center you choose.

LaoluQ:
Please I noticed that on my visa application form, the standard service payment is showing only. I didn't see the part of the priority service which I paid for on visa application form I downloaded from the ukvi portal

Is the priority strictly a TLS service that won't reflect on the visa application form.

Don't wory about it...it's in their system already...you will see it when you go for biometric.

LaoluQ:
Hello
Please I did biometrics on the 21st July (priority). Today, 28th is meant to be the 5th working day but no decision or collection mail yet. My TLS app status shows that my application has been transferred to the decision centre. Did my biometrics at TLS Ikeja, assisted service
Please are there cases of delay in the priority service. I plan to send an email to them, is it effective.

Go to their office...don't be surprised your passport might be there waiting collection.

Hello Good people,

I submitted my biometrics at TLS in Victoria Island yesterday.

I got an email that my application was transferred to Decision Making Committee yesterday.

My question is: How do I track my application on TLS website given that I have applied for priority application and I am expecting my visa next week Monday.

Thank you.

You can't get it on Monday.
You should be looking at Thursday or Friday while pickup shd be Tuesday or Wednesday of upper week .

Vecharry:
Dom account and the card have separate accounts?

Yes it's a separate account. Just transfer the funds from the Dom account to your Dom card.
Mind you, you are required to pay not more than $5000 dollars into your Dom account over the counter with in a month

Chpelu:
pls how much is the additional fee for vl.

£55

jammiesday1:
Thanks for your response.
Please which bank's card? And how did you fund the card?

GTB, bought dollar from black market either cash or transfer to my Dom account then transfer to my Dom ATM card over the counter.

jammiesday1:
GTB

With GTB you are good to go
Just go over the counter and make a deposit from your Dom account to your Dom card or you can even do it via internet banking if you can see all accounts on your profile.

jammiesday1:
Thank you very much for the response.
Please how/where can I get Usd transferred to my dollar card? I was told at the bank that Usd deposited at the counter into the dollar cards cannot be used for this purpose.

Which bank is that? This is news

jammiesday1:
Good evening everyone in the house.
I want to make Visa and IHS payments of over $7000
For a family of 3. Please how do I make these payments? I'm absolutely clueless about how to go about it as I heard that there are limits on the Dollar cards.
Please help.

Mine don't have limit I don't know about yours. I made payment of over $7,000 straight

lonngmann:
Alright, will do that.

Thanks �

Send them a mail with evidence why you need an earlier date and wait for about 72hours for their reply.
You may not stand a chance going to their office except you want to do manual booking which maybe from 3wks from today...

Hello Good people,

I have used gtbank Naira account statement to get CAS.This Naira account statement hold naira amount that was adjuged to be adequate to cover both my course fee balance after scholarship and deposit as well as my maintenance fee by Birmingham City University. And CAS has been issued to me. But when I was filling visa application form, I filled that I will turn in my 2nd Gtbank account which is a dollar account that I built and held the funds for 28 days. And I have used the funds in it yesterday to pay for visa, NHS and priority application and Victoria Island center fee.

Before using up the money, I printed the statement.

My question is, should I submit only the naira gtbank account which was only used to issue my cas or I should also submit the gtbank dollar account since I mention it in my visa app? My worry is I have used up the dollars and I am scared upon confirmation of balance as at Biometrics date UKVI will not find the dollars shown in the dollar statement and this may cause issues for me.

I intend to walk in to Victoria Island TLS office for Biometrics and document scan tomorrow.

You should be worried , there is a reason why you mentioned that you have a dom account with gtbank

Greetings. Please when applying for student visa. Is it possible for you and your spouse and kid to go the country at the same time? Don't know how to put this. But I pray someone understands. Can the family visa be approved the same time and can they all move at the same time. Thanks

Yes you call all go together same time

senator77:
Good day my people. I printed my tls appointment mail, checklist, applicatn form & all payment receipts in black & white. Only my passport data page is colour copy. Hope that is acceptable those that have gone for biometrics.

You are good to go

Adesire1:
Hello house,
Please is it possible to rebook appointments to a closer date after securing one already? Someone said I can rebook my appointment if the initial date given is quite far for biometrics. How true pls?

Go for walk in

Enyika:
Hello everyone, I applied for Uk student visa and paid for priority for me and standard for my spouse. I just checked my visa page my agent handled but mine is showing standard instead of priority. Is it an error from my agent or it’s normal, as I unable to reach my agent at the moment. Someone please assist

Tell him to send you the payment confirmation for the priority visa he paid that was sent to the email address he used.

latinah:
The don’t do booking at the location,booking is only done online,test for 2years is 23120
But some are saying here that if you go and show them proof your school resumption date and you need an earlier date,they will book you

You can actually do manual booking at the location. When you get there you will write down your details and be told the date for the appointment.

Does anyone have an idea if TLS site is under maintenance?
Or has anyone made payment for Assisted service today?

Josh121:
I don’t see the possibility in ikeja, you will meet people that have been there since last week , I and my family did walk-in on Thursday , I have been going there since on Monday , I was able to write our names on Tuesday and was told to come to Thursday, when I got there on Thursday our number was called .

I am hoping to use Vi TLS. I don't mind paying the extra cost. That means I will have to go and put down my name.
Thanks

Josh121:
You pay on your walk-in day

Okay thank you..
But is it possible to come for walk in and still walk in same day instead of writing your name for next day walk in
