Have not submitted, I filled that i can't contact her

Will this have any implication on my application considering the fact that I declared that I will be staying at her place at the POE in my last visit, which wasn't on my application.
That's fine then. I don't really think it would affect you. I don't think it's standard practice to look up an applicant's previous visa applications unless ofcourse they smell a rat. But again what do I know?

Can someone please advice me on what to do, my aunty has not been picking her calls for sometime now.
What can I do in this case because I need to fill her passport number in my application even tho am not going to stay with her. I'm almost close to the date of my biometrics.
If you are close to the date of your biometrics it means you have submitted your application. No? What then did you fill in?

If she's not picking then perhaps you shouldn't have answered yes to the question

Be calming down..... I searched all through there website but was unable to get the info that I need.

After the initial acceptance fee
Will a prospective student be
Required to make part payment tuition fee


Post graduate
PGD
I find that it's course dependent (programme). Ideally the "acceptance fee" is tuition fee deposit as it goes towards your tuition.

Last am aware, Surrey offers a payment plan ( this might be course dependent. In the case I'm aware of it was an Msc in an Engineering field).

Perhaps email the exact department to ask about their fee payment structure (deposit et al)

Good day house

Please I’m trying book an appointment for next week in VI.

I want to opt for assisted service but there’s no appointment date
But there’s appointment dates for self service ( I don’t have the facilities to upload that’s why I want the assisted service)

Do I select a self service appointment? Can I override not uploading the documents online and then pay for assisted service at the Centre ??

Thanks
Yeah

Thanks so much...God bless you, but is there no way my uncle can just provide his bank statement which shows that his capable enough to shoulder such
responsibilities rather than directly sending me the money?
Sure he can. It's just clearer if the money was already in your possession but yes he can provide his account statement.

Hello, greetings to everyone here, please I want to apply for a UK tourist Visa 6months to be precise, I am a student, and just recently entered my final year in the university(private uni)my family friend is inviting me over to spend my summer holiday with them and my uncle is sponsoring the trip, I intend going second week of July and to be back 1st week of october to continue with my final year in school, my personal bank statement is good, Atleast there's a steady flow of income going in and out(upkeep)but my uncle will be responsible for every finance needed, I'll be staying with my family friend over there. Please I need an advice on how to go about the applications because I'm a novice in this field, I've only traveled within Africa, please your guidance on how to go about it, would be highly appreciated, please help a brother
I will recommend your Uncle transfer your travel expense to you that way you are just going to present one account. A letter from him stating the money is for your trip to the UK for excellent academic performance bla bla bla should suffice. Your family friend can do a letter that they are your friend and would be happy to host you for the duration of your stay. A letter from your school to show that you are a student and would be entering your final year in October would be helpful too.

Others here with a similar situation such as yours might also be able to offer better insight

Abi ooo...my thought too..because I got the visa bfor with same document and everything..reason for refusal was that I state 6days ...that am I not aware that I will have to stay in hotel for 10days quarantine period ..ofwhich I explain to them i[b]n my cover letter[/b] that I have 30days approved leave from work ..so..
2nd reason that my budget is small for that period of stay ..my acct balance was 3.8m..i no understand ooo...I think that was an error from dere end because how can 3.8m be too small for a trip of 6days let even said 16days plus the 10days quarantine..I might need to write them dough ..
The 2nd reason should be an error on their part. For example, my budget has never been up to 3m, normally ranges between (1-1.4m) and no one has ever said it was too small for my estimated stay, most times longer than 10days.

On 1 if your travel date falls within the lockdown restriction timeline then perhaps you should have reflected that in your application.

Personal advice: do not do a cover letter unless it is absolutely necessary and you are sure it addresses issues you could not have addressed in the form itself, rather focus on doing a proper application and answering the questions in the application form as clearly as possible.

Perhaps you should challenge the decision. Good luck!

It might.

My first U.K visa for studies was denied. I had stated I didn't have any relation in the U.K because I was advised (I was pretty young then) that if I wrote I have a relation they will say I won't come back, whereas that would have even facilitated the visa. I eventually went to school in the Netherlands and I then applied for a visit visa to spend Christmas with my aunty. Of course, I was denied.

I had to appeal in court and my aunty told the Judge she didn't know why on earth I stated I didn't have a relation in the U.K when she is my mum's elder sister (the same father and same mother). Since then I have been having U.K visas.

You can apply and come upfront with the information, knowing that you already provided that at the POE.
I honestly don't see how you could have been denied a visa based on the details you shared here but again that's your experience and I have no right to question that.

There are so many reasons why an individual would answer NO to having a relation in the UK and answer YES on a later date. Based on that information alone it doesn't provide enough ground to deny an applicant's visa.

Based on personal experience OP doesn't have to answer YES if it isn't an immediate family member but again that's my own personal opinion.

I will like to known if it’s possible for international student (Masters ) to get Canadian tourist visa while studying in Uk?

If yes, what are the requirements to apply as a student?

Anyone with information about this?

Yes you can. In addition to the regular documents bank statement etc you need a letter attesting to your student status from your school.

Does it have any effect if i declare it now, tho I don't have any intention of staying in her place.

Don't want to take chances.
Just answer questions that were asked. Don't give your self a question and answer it.

You can declare the relationship. That you know someone doesn't mean you should stay at theirs.

Most times I don't stay in my siblings place. You could also be visiting s different town from where they stay.

In summary: Answer questions asked. Don't give an unsolicited explanation

Thanks for the response Nchabuomo.
Pls is 600k good to go for me and my one year daughter for 10 days.
My uncle will be accommodating us.
My salary is 265k, living cost 60k, disposable income 205k. Also do I need my husband bank statement since he is only supporting with 200k or my account statement is required only.

1.400k
2. Yes
3. 200k
When do you intend to travel? Will you quarantine for the whole duration of the trip? If the 200k is already in your possession then there's no need to add your husbands account statement. Just highlight that he sent you the funds on so so date

Want to use booking.com
Okay then explore booking. com. Also keep in mind that some countries have a stipulated daily subsistence requirement tourists should have per day.

I don't know if the UK has one but you can use the EU rate as a standard ( between €45-€90).

It seems like a tight budget but I think it's fine really.

Don't do a financial breakdown though.

Thanks for your response. I have the $3500 in my DOM account which is linked to my salary account. Gtb issues the statements for both accounts in one document. For the other account that has more money, I pay in money in lump sums cus that’s where I save. I’ve only paid in money once this year. As advised, I will add a cover note explaining my funding and add the statements from the banks.

My other question is does the statement downloaded from the app suffice for Gtb and access bank or do I use the “send statement to embassy” option?

Thank you
Ideally you can explain all this in the additional information section of the visa application form. The statement downloaded from the app should suffice.

Good luck
