Why don't you ask your school? They are best-positioned to answer you.
For some of the schools that I'm conversant with, you can combine multiple discounts but not scholarships (for scholarships, the highest one is applied to your fees). Lincoln might be different.
Kimberx:
Please this scholarship that is stated below is what is written for fees before application in university of Lincoln
Would it still apply in case of the 5000 discount for Africa discount

It shouldn't, as long as you submit your wedding certificate to link both names.
I'd suggest that you keep the names on your passport and financial documents the same (where possible) to avoid having to explain or ECO errors. Name change in the banks don't take more than 24 hours once you submit all the required documents.

Good day.

Please I need to ask, can I put POF in an account that bears my maiden name? BVN is maiden too but my intl ppt bears my marital name..
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by mimilyrics: 6:31pm On Jan 25, 2022
No, as long as your money doesn't go below what you are required to show.

Please gurus I need your advice on this

Will salary payment into the account during? the 28 days period affect visa success?
Or is it prudent to do that?
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by mimilyrics: 6:29pm On Jan 25, 2022
Personal/credibility statements are for you to sell yourself so go for it. Tell a story of your motivations, your unique experiences and why you applied for the course.
ensamy:
I have an M.Sc in Microbiology, and applied another M.Sc in Molecular microbiology for a career shift or change, now the school wants me to provide credibility statement , that's Personal statement to prove I am genuine. Hope this is not roadblock. Please any one done credibility statement.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by mimilyrics: 1:53pm On Jan 25, 2022
Yes, it's possible. You should craft a very persuasive personal statement through which you can communicate your motivations and you should be able to show evidence of what touch been up to these past years.
TobyTreasure:
Please is it possible for someone above 35 years old to apply and successfully be admitted into an Undergraduate program at any UK University. The highest qualification so far is WAEC written many years ago.
Which University if possible?
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by mimilyrics: 10:27am On Jan 25, 2022
According to UKVi, yes. "If your partner and children joined you in the UK as ‘dependents’ on your current Student visa or Tier 4 (General) student visa, they can apply to stay as dependants as on your Graduate visa.
If your partner and children joined you in the UK as ‘dependents’ on your current Student visa or Tier 4 (General) student visa, they can apply to stay as dependants as on your Graduate visa."

You just might have need to prove that the relationship is genuine if you come very close to the graduate visa application date as this might raise eyebrows.
But as I stated earlier, it's not cast in stone as some ECOs are quite rigid while some ECOs will let some situations slide. It's just always better not to give room for questions.

Thank you for the insights, but i have another question. What if the dependents enter UK in 6 months or less will the dependents qualify for the 2years PGWV?

As long as her permission is not 6 months or less, she'll get her BRP card and also pay IHS but if 6 months or less, no BRP or IHS payment (No "free" NHS health care).
Towotowo:
This was helpful, thanks. I have a friend whose wife is applying next month and his visa ends by October 2022, that's 8 months left. I hope its ok if she applies at this time, and what's the chances she'll get her BRP also? looking forward to read back from you..
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by mimilyrics:
Pardon the confusion. Must here is relative - it was used to convey the importance of the situation. I should have typed "should ideally" since this is advisory.

The dependant won't have access to "free" (subsidised) NHS services since IHS is not paid for visas that are 6 months or less. What if something happens and your dependant needs healthcare? The bill might be crippling and end up being more than the yearly IHS.

Also, coming too close to when the main applicant puts in an application for the graduate visa might raise flags as to the timing. You need to have lived together for some time before the application - this shows genuineness and doesn't come across as arranged. Coming few weeks to the visa end date might raise some doubts around being genuinely married except there are genuine reasons for this.

If you plan to arrive less than 6 months to the end of the main applicant's visa and for some reason, UKVI delays your application or other circumstances beyond your control happen, it means that you might not arrive before your partner has to put in an application for the graduate visa which may see you living without your partner for the better part of 2 years, in the absence of a work visa. If you're not in the UK as a dependant prior to the application, you won't be able to apply as a dependant.

Some HRs also don't have a strong grip of immigration rules and it might be difficult to get a job (if you want one as a dependant) because 1. You don't have a BRP (even with BRP, some of them still errorneously delay employment checks because it's not a situation that they are used to and 2. The short duration on the visa might deter some employers (the ones who will employ you will do so irrespective of the hurdles).

So to avoid stress and plenty "explanations" or last minute issues, better to join earlier.

Please note that each application is different and is subject to the ECO's discretion.
OgbeniOptional:
@mimilyrics. FOR DEPENDANTS: Your family must be in the UK as your dependant under the Student visa for them to qualify as your dependants under the Graduate visa route. This means that they must apply to join you more than 6 months to the end of your course since BRPs are not issued for any visa below 6 months.

Please I’d like you to clarify this for me, before 6 months current visa expires or end of course? There is 4 months extra after end of course. My partner will round up her masters program in Nigeria around May and that’s when she plans to apply. So I’m confused. Thanks
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 7 by mimilyrics:
Glad to be of help. Final additions below for those who ask.
Note:
You can use Microfinance banks as long as they are registered with and licenced by CBN.
You should also find out if any one has used the statements from that bank before because it also proves that the bank can satisfactorily verify financial statements through UKVI established channels. The bank being able to verify the statement to UKVI as required and when due is key.
CAS - Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies. You need this from your school to apply.
ECO - Entry Clearance Officer. The visa official that assesses your application.
NSF mail - Non-Straightforward mail. You get this mail if they need more documents from you or if they won't be able to decide your application within the set timeframes.
POE - Point Of Entry. The airport that you come in through.
POF - Proof Of Funds. Evidence of how you intend to fund your studies.
BRP - Biometric Residence Permit: Your BRP is the documentary evidence of your UK immigration permission. The BRP looks like a driver’s licence but with details of your immigration permission in the UK.
When you get your visa in Nigeria, it will be on your passport with a 90-day validity. Once you get into the UK, you pick your BRP which replaces the visa in your passport and is valid throughout your stay in the UK (eg.16 months for 1 year courses).

TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 6 by mimilyrics:

Then you should also present her £ account showing that she's still got her maintainance for the remaining 5 of the 9 months that is required since she should have spent 4 months in the UK by now. Also, school fees receipts showing that some of the money was used in paying her fee.
You have a good AR case because your application should have been judged without your wife's funds since you applied separately but you must also prove that there's nothing shady going on as suspected by the ECO in this situation.

For AR, you can add new documents showing that information submitted at the time of your application was correct ie. Your wife's £ account and receipts (school and rent) in this case.
ELIZABET:
My brother, how will you spend from your naira account abroad up to the tune of thousands of pounds? You cant. You will move the money to your UK account or maybe a dollar account. They only asked for her naira account which was used for her application. So there is no way they will expect her money to be in Nigeria while she is studying abroad.

I have asked around to know why they asked for her naira account, and what I gathered was that they want to see if there is duplication of fund.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 6 by mimilyrics: 10:59pm On Jan 21, 2022
No, you don't. I'd advise just ignoring. If they want to explore why you're still unmarried, they'll ask you but it's inconsequential to your application since your status never changed.
Please in future, don't declare any information that has not been birthed (I.e. you about to get married etc.) except it is necessary.

Thanks for the response. I would be indicating I’m single when filling the student visa application. I’m thinking I would have to write a letter to them explaining why the marriage didn’t work out or something like that.

Hello house, please I need any assistance I can get regarding this issue. ����

I applied for a UK visit visa last year August 2021 and the visa application was refused.

For that application, because of strong home ties, my agent stated that I have an unmarried partner, and that the marriage is going to take place on December 2021 according to the wedding invitation card that was created and sent as part of documents to the embassy.

The application was refused because of disposable income issue and lack of strong family and economic ties.

So on their record, I am supposed to be married by now, but all that was not true. I’m still very single and I want to apply for a UK student visa this year as a single person.

Please I need help on what to do to convince the embassy that the marriage did not happen and I’m still single.

Bro I have seen in your previous post asking if you should return the visa to VAC lol. If you get the Visa even though it will be a risk but it is a risk worth taking. By all means travel with it.

1. If the visa comes out after your school's enrolment/arrival date and you've not enrolled or arrived by then, you most likely won't be allowed on the course. Speak to your school, they're your best bet for answers and dates.
2. If the above happens, you will be turned back at the POE if you try to use your visa except you've have your school's approval (in writing) to arrive after the set date. You just keep it, can't be returned once given.
3. If you defer, you'll need a new CAS to make a new application for the session you defer to. You'll also need to register your biometrics again.
Affam:
Dear all
My school is insisting that all incoming students must register by 24th January after obtaining their visas and paying the 50% fees balance or have their admission withdrawn or deferred. I sent them a mail informing them about the delay in visa processing and the suspension of priority service but they seem adamant. Even though I have no issue paying the fees but what will be my fate if the visa doesn't come out before the stated date? and if the visa eventually comes after 24th deadline, will it not longer be valid? Do I return it to the VAC or do what with it?.
My offer to other university still stands and I am now considering that option but can this be possible since my passport is still at the VAC?. If I opt for a deferral, do I need to reinitiate the cas issuance process afresh with my current school? What happens to my visa fee and IHS fee initially paid? Will both be refunded? Will the initial biometric done still be used for another school if the admission is within the time frame or it is a must that I do another since if I am applying to a different school?
I need ur answers please, this situation pass me....

No. It's your choice to make.

Hello everyone.
Is it compulsory to take Vitamin D tablets for someone who just moved to the UK, considering the absence of sunlight here ?
Also due to the cold weather, I urinate a lot and seem not to get tasty. My wife actually forces me to drink plenty water due to kidney stones.

You can try amazon. Once got some from them before I got what I needed in an African store.
Better still, the corn flour method might come in handy. Get the regular corn flour from Morrisons et Al and prepare as you would the normal pap. You'll need to add some liquid milk and lemon to give it somewhat similar taste to ogi.

Hello People,

Please I have a friend that just put to bed in the hinterlands of Scotland. I want to buy good pap for her. Does anyone know a good plug in this UK I can buy from?

Thank you.

In cases like that, the resumption date is the latest that you can arrive. Always best to find out from the school to clear misconceptions.
LuchiBianca:
Not all schools. Some schools are strict on resumption date like mine. It's either you resume on that date or you defer. But I saw latest date for enrollment on poster's CAS so that's a good thing.

As far as I know, all schools should have this. Asking the school is always the best way to clear up any misconceptions that you might have.
judithnze:
But it seems not all schools have stated the latest date of arrival.
