Be careful so you don't get slammed with deception or misrepresentation. Better to do it the right way than get a document that might be fake. These things take time.
nickishire:


Thank you for response and for your kind observation. I was misled that the process of getting the sole responsibility will take a minimum of 6 months and I didn’t have that time so I thought to try it out but unfortunately I’m here now!

Now back to the solution! Someone offered to help with a genuine court order but it’s from a Kaduna court meanwhile my kids and husband live in Lagos. Please hope location isn’t an issue?

Thank you all in anticipation of your urgent responses.

There's nothing that you can do except to provide an updated bank statement showing that the money is still in your account after being held for at least 28 days.
At this point, you'd need to put the money back and start the count afresh.
Donangelo12345:
Greetings all. I have a hinge in my application to study in the UK. I got an unconditional offer in the university of Dundee for September intake. I have paid my tuition fee of 5000k. They demanded a proof of fund after that so dat they can issue me CAS. So I ran a fresh bank statement for 29 days after which I uploaded it on the 18th of April but de mistake I made was that I removed the money from the bank that same day. (Note that the last day of issuance of cas is in august) I was scheduled for a pre cas interview 3 days ago and during the interview by a Nigerian lady, she told me to upload an updated copy of my bank statement…. And this is where I got issues… I am still thinking of what to do? Guys help me out…. @duchess90 @everyone. Thanks

If she changes the name on her passport, she must contact UKVI within 3 months of the name change for a BRP replacement or risk being fined.
Lolli2pop:
Hi guys please important question.. a friend of mine got married in 2019 but she kept using her maiden name because she was too lazy to apply for a new nigerian passport that would reflect her husband’s name. Now she is about to finally apply for a change of name on her pass post since her passport is about to expire.

She has a uk brp in her maiden name.. can she continue to use this brp even after she gets a new passport in her husband’s name. If she can’t, can she apply for update of info on her existing brp card before her new passport arrives or does she have to wait?

Her biggest concern was if her new passport comes with her husband name nd she continues using the brp card in her name, when she travels outside the uk how would she prove to the border control that its the same person for both docs. Could this cause an issue? Has anyone been through similar experience?

Not true. The only downside is that BRP isn’t normally given and IHS isn't usually paid on visas less than 6 months and this might make getting job(s) and accessing healthcare by your dependants difficult.

You don't need that. Marriage certificate is always accepted by UKVI as evidence of name change in addition to the submission of a passport in your marital name.
Name change isn't compulsory though so you can use your passport in your maiden name and submit your marriage certificate as proof of your relationship with your spouse.
Focus99:
What about as a female main applicant do I need newspaper publication and an affidavit to change of name?

No. You dont need to have paid your visa fee before your TB test. Just informing you that the visa fee is exclusive of your TB test and the you'll have to pay for your TB test separately.

Hi guys ,

Can someone kindly explain to me what this statement means on the payment portal for TB test ?

"The cost of the test is in addition to the visa application fee."

Does it mean the Visa application fee must have been paid for before paying and booking for a TB test ?

1. Is this for a visit, work or study visa? For study visa, check the 1st page.
2. Yes, please. If you state that you run a business, UKVI is most likely to check if it's active on CAC.
3. As long as all the money that's required and in both accounts meets the stipulated conditions by UKVI.
4. No. Business/Company money isn't for your personal spending. Business account is only usually used to show that one has a thriving business in Nigeria.
5. Marriage certificate, bills in both your names, joint account, tenancy agreement or property documents in both your names, pictures etc. Chat is only necessary if you've lived apart at any point in the 2 years preceding your application.
6. I believe that all airlines are flexible with change. Flexibility is usually dependent on the kind of ticket you buy.
Fadd2:
Good day all

Please i need help on the questions below.
1. What are the required documents needed for visa application for someone that use to work in the corporate sector and now an entrepreneur (pls note that the business is registered by CAC.)

2. Is it necessary to confirm if the CAC registration is active. If yes, how do we validate that?

3. Can MA use two statement of accounts merged for application or can MA and dependant statements of account be used for both MA and Dependant Visa application or what exactly is the best practice for Ukvi?

4. Can corporate account be used for application?

5.for dependant that has been married for few number of years with children, is it still necessary to upload chat record with the spouse or pictures and marriage certificate will suffice?

6. Are there airlines that are flexible with change date because we are considering booking ahead.

UKVI actually does if you show proof of application for a new one in addition to the old one and a cover letter explaining this.
It worked for someone who moved from a student visa to PSW in November.

This is very sad, imagine people that needs the passport to renew their stay, they now face the risk of overstaying because UKVI won't take passport unavailability as excuse.

You don't need to submit your CV except UKVI requests that you send it.
If they request evidence of whymat you've been up to, your payslips/account statement and/or letter from your employer should suffice.

Then your friend should address it and make it clear that there was nothing of such while referring to the statement in question.
Detail the deposits that entered the account and their evidenced sources. Attach the same account submitted and if possible print a fresh one predating your application so that they can compare both to see that there's been no fraudulent lodgement in the account.
This might have been a mix up with someone else's application.

It depends on how fast your checks come through and the individual(s) working on your application; check that you have no outstanding checks on Trac.

Once all your checks come through on Trac, wait for minimum 1 day to 1 week and chase up with the recruiting manager/HR if you hear nothing from them. Your starting letter ought to be sent to you and the recruiting manager as soon as all your checks come through so that you can agree a start date but sometimes, you need to send HR a mail to prompt them to send you this.

Sometimes, delays are because someone is on AL and didn't handover or someone assumed that someone else has worked on it. It could also be for another reason.

For my last job change recently, my checks came back within 4 days, the one before that took 7 days last year and for the offers from the year before, checks were completed within 2, 3 and 20 weeks by 3 different Trusts. The 20-week period for one of the Trust was because the HR staff didn't quite know what they were doing and by the time they got back to me with their unconditional offer, I had gone for the one with the 3 weeks turnaround.

It depends. eg. If you work (with the NHS as an example) and apply for an apprenticeship with your employer, it is not public funds as this will be paid from your employer's apprenticeship levy.
I'd advise you to get one with your employer if you're working in any capacity and your employer has in-house apprenticeships. For other apprenticeships, I'd say be careful and make your findings well so you don't erroneously use public funds.
Dharmie02:

Would taking apprenticeship roles not be termed as public funds for those of us still new in the country?

What you'll use to bring her in is your right to live/work in the UK (visa), not your COS. Your COS is to sponsor you so if you successfully get your work visa, your wife can apply based on that. If the COS ticks maintenance for your dependant(s), then you'll need to evidence that when she makes her application so that she doesn't need to submit an account statement.
Alternatively, you can bring her in on your student visa and she applies as your dependant when you submit your application or when you receive your visa. This will cost you more than if she applies based on your work visa.
