Nanorest:
What will happen if someone stop schooling after getting to UK

Depends. When I was in school if you miss classes a couple of times without due notice to the school, the school would notify UKVI. That's the procedure, to what extent schools adhere to this differ.

Note it's been a few years things might have changed

Hello y'all

Just wondering, how far apart can someone's bank statement can be from the day it was printed out to biometrics date? Like many days or weeks apart can be reasonable?

Thanks in advance

Not more than 30 days old I think.

Leleky:
Please what's the relevance of covid 19 vaccine certificate to the UK Tourist Visa application?
Does being vaccinated add up in the application process?

For now, it's not a requirement.

Hello everyone, I want to ask a question on my mom’s behalf, she want to apply for UK visiting visa next month, she has printed her 6 months bank statement, I want to know if she can remove the money in the account or she should wait till she get her visa. Thank you all.

By remove if you mean if she can go about her normal account activites then Yes. If you mean can she liquidate the account then she might be in a sticky situation if the DC decides to verify her documents.

Your budget is okay
But, have you considered paying N1.3m (£1,700) for a mandatory Government regulated hotel for travellers from Nigeria? Check this link.
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/red-amber-and-green-list-rules-for-entering-england

But Nigeria isn't on the red list. Also if the "gist" is anything to go by the UK might be relaxing quarantine protocols for fully vaccinated travellers (on the assumption that they're fully vaccinated)

Good day house!

Any one you have.

Nchabuomo pls wat is prove of savings. Is it my savings account where I receive my salary and deduct monthly expenditure and leave my disposable income in it. Or is savings different from it. Someone was telling it's not wat dey meant by savings.

Did you provide payslips to backup your salary. Did you provide proof of savings?

Savings is ideally what is left after you remove your expenditures. This can be in a different account dedicated for that or your salary account. The key thing is presenting proof of monies you have mentioned in your application

Awelelynda:
I was refused on this grounds I don’t even know what to do next, can I reapply? What am I supposed to do right, please someone help me out

Did you provide payslips to backup your salary. Did you provide proof of savings?

humblemoi:
Yes, fully vaxed. Only thing is one won't be in the city for 7 days to do that day 7 test

Lol well this isn't their problem is it? 7days is just 2 more days to add to 5 days. But try sha

Chpelu:
Good morning all. I was refused visa in April with my family. I want to reapply again to travel with my baby alone in December. My leave letter and visa application stated I will be going on my 21 days leave, because of the refusal I didn't go for 21 days leave. I only went for 5 days. I reserved the remaining 16 days for next holiday. How will I address this on my next visa application that it won't be an issue for me. Thanks

You don't need to address it. Just say you are going for 16 days. I personally have never attached any proof of leave. Rather focus on addressing the issues that led to you being denied.

humblemoi:
Hi guys, is it possible for one to embark on a 5 days trip to Nigeria?

How would doing covid tests impact such a trip? I hear there are some rules around doing post arrival covid test in Nigeria and covid test to be done before departing Nigeria.

Can anyone please help explain how this could work?

Any explanation will be appreciated.

Are you fully vaccinated? Ideally, you need to take an post arrival COVID-19 test on day 7 and a departure test latest 72hrs before your trip. If you are fully vaccinated you might be able to make your case to authorities why you can test earlier

Mackelson:
Morning guys. Please can electronic statement of account (unsigned) be used or just the printed signed copy?

Yes you can use the electronic copy

Sanmigbola:
Sorry I meant VAF.

Should mean visa application form but I could be wrong.

codedarrow:
Did you submitted via TLS Ikeja ?

He submitted at Abj

pufframmy:

Sanmigbola:
What does VFS stand for and what doc can someone upload under this category ?

Not sure I have come across that term on UK visa form. Which section?

Sharing this here on behalf of a friend:

Submission: 17/May/2021
Ready for collection: 3/June/2021
Picked up: No visa & no rejection email
Called UKVI on the 7/June/2021
Called back by the High Commission to return passport.

Went back with passport:8/June/2021

Visa granted.

Putting this out here because when he had the issue it was a bit difficult to find much information on similar cases online. Hopefully this helps someone in the future.

rebless:
Hello gurus,

I hope someone can help me with this 1 question....as a business owner intending to apply for visitors Visa, should a secretary write an introduction to the embassy for me or I can simply write the Introduction letter myself as the owner of the business?

Thank you.

Personal opinion: it doesn't matter who writes it.

Legend1145:
Pls I can find the tracking option on the TLScontact website.

After you completed your application you got an email. Open the email and log back to your application. Click on the provide biometrics tab. You will see your details including appointment date, upload document tab then track application. Click on track application.

Legend1145:
Hello, please how do I track my uk application the TLScontact app not going tru

Use the TLS website. There's a tracking option from the landing page.

The page you see when you click on provide biometrics on the UKVI site.

Lifeisgoody:
Thanks. My problem is I have only July, being my annual leave

Okay. Maybe try Skyscanner

Lifeisgoody:
I don't have Shengen Visa. Someone suggested Air Maroc

You can do a transit visa. Or check other travel dates perhaps you can get a lower fare.

Cyclops33:
My biometrics was submitted 7th April , whenever I escalate my case, the next day I get this and I instantly do as requested by sending a mail requesting for them to call me but the thing is they never call me. I don’t know what else to do about this. I called their customer service they said they are not incharge of such calls. Has anyone had any issues relating to this, please advice.

Perhaps send a reminder or request to schedule a call.

A friend is having a kinda similar issue with UKVI and they aren't the most responsive bunch.

Lifeisgoody:
Please, I still want to confirm if I can fly Air France. France and Nigeria are both on Amber list.

Still considering cheap flight tickets. British Airways and Virgin are expensive

Why can't you fly Air France?

graceodini:
Please house i need answer to this. Thanks

Yes. If you don't get one your visa was likely approved. If you don't get one and still didn't see a Visa sticker then call UKVI.

Donuywa:
Please I use a agent to apply for a tourist visa last year and when filling my details he filled I was a medical doctor,thou I was not giving the visa the agent told me that they was no rejection letter and my passport was not even stamp that the embassy return the passport back,he told me he contacted someone in the embassy and he was told that the embassy called him to confirm if truly I was working in the establishment he did not pick so they return back the passport.house please I need advice I want to reapply on my own with my wife as the principal sponsor please will that formal details the agent use for me affect

So how did the agent know your visa was refused if there isn't any rejection letter? They have been cases where a Visa was approved but the Visa sticker wasn't inserted into the passport.

How do you even know a Visa was even applied for?

jibs3:
Good evening everyone please is it true it is not advisable to reapply for UK visa now because of the pandemic ? Just heard they told them to spend summer indoors

That's not true

Ijaay83:
Please what does it mean to stay airside.

Not pass through immigration

Daniel2802:
Good evening. I'm currently a 300 level student of the University of Nigeria Nsukka, studying computer science. I am an app developer by specialisation.

I'm currently considering a country to japa to, through the easiest way which is study route. I don't mind doing my masters.

How affordable is tuition there and could I be pointed in the right direction?

Like approximate total cost of everything, na patch patch I wan patch so start. Thanks.

Tuition is course & school dependent. Affordability is relative too. A good proxy is check University rankings and use that as a gauge for tuition. Often times tuition falls as you go down the table. A not so good school in the UK could easily cost up to £10k for tuition. Depending on your grades you could also get scholarships or discounts.

Sanmigbola:
Just to prove am not hiding anything

I understand but I feel it's better you just state that you have lost contact with her as opposed to giving her number without her consent.

You don't need to have someone in the UK to apply for a tourist visa so adding her details or not doesn't in any way strengthen your application. It might make the ECO understand your situation better but since you aren't staying in her place and perhaps she doesn't even know you are applying for a visa, I don't think it's a good idea to add her number. My opinion though.

Sanmigbola:
The best I will do is to give them her telephone number. tho, I'm going to manchester and she lives in Dartford.

That's not proper as you don't have her consent to share those details especially if it's not requested.
