Do as the site suggested, contact the support team.

They might ask you to send a police report which will make your application take longer depends on how fast you can get the report.

Otherwise, they might ask you to write a signed undertaken that it was an error.

Or, they can just ask you to verbally confirm you don’t have any criminal record and have the application reset for you immediately.

Please guys I have a problem. I am trying to fill my enrollment form online and mistakenly selected yes under criminal conviction. The registration process automatically throw me out. I don't have any criminal conviction and I have never been arrested nor even sumorned for any offence.

I am shaking now and there is no way to sign in and complete the form.

Please gurus in the house how I go about this ? The site said I have to contact student affairs department. I am worried and not sure how big a problem this is.

Please anyone that has ever encountered this problem should please let me know what they did in resolving it.

Any suggestation will be of help. I am just so sad and drained right now.

It’s says “tick if you are including this document” it means you have to tick the documents from the options that u will be submitting with ur application.

Godsblessings:
hello bro, pls the checklist that we are required to print to biometrics. pls when I printed it ,it was not marked and filled, do I have to fill it and mark the box before I submit or I should just print it blank and submit cos I don't get it

Check with Mamatukwas

Kinpelz:
Good Morning guys,

Please does any one know a reliable cargo company to the UK or an easier way to do this? I want to cargo some of my stuffs to the UK.

Thanks for your response.

Salary 420k - 98k monthly expenses = 322k disposable income

Ur budget shld not exceed 322k x 2 = 644k

Oanda exchange rate today is 494 but let’s use 500 to be on the safe side hence you have 500 x 1223 = 611,500 which is good

oladotunfelix2:
I just work on the daily meal money

The total is now £1,223

Please is £1,223 okay or I should still reduce it

Thanks

£15 is too small to spend on food daily

Put into consideration 3 square meal or at least 2 meals a day. It shld be atleast £30 daily

You don’t necessarily have to declare your expenses for tourist site, just say miscellaneous as it will cover site seeing and other expenses

oladotunfelix2:
Thanks for your response

Very correct, it’s called the FLR (FP) route. It’s a ten year route with 2.5 years visa granted within the period.

As long he’s registered as the father of the baby (has his name on the birth certificate), have pictures and maybe receipts to show he’s been doing his responsibility as the father. This is infact “easier” than marriage these days.

Vasco1dagama:
oga, he will be given two and half years "fatherly care". it doesn't take upto 6 month to get.
I have friends , family members who pass through this process. provided the lady holds British passport.
getting ilr is a process which may take upto 7-8 years but from 2and half years leave to remain he can reapply and so on.
the most important thing is having a child , once that is done, forget the rest.
the most difficult ways nowadays is marriage without child or children .
if he tries to come back they wouldn't consider his application base on past precedence. let him remain their until he gets the 2/half years before thinking about marriage or returning back otherwise sorry na him name .

Thanks for this, I just submitted a claim let’s see how much I get

fatima04:

Thank you.

Call them to chase up on the progress of your application even though they might still be focusing on September in takes.

Thanksss:
Good evening and kudos to justwise and all the gurus on the thread.. have been a silent reader

I want to start my processing for January intake
I've applied to BCU, Chester and Coventry uni since August 28th and have not yet heard from them.

so I checked BCU student portal I saw yesterday via the student portal that decision had been made on my application, and that I could accept or reject the offer.
However, there was no offer letter or any attachment about the details of the offer.

Then today the decision and offer part had been removed from the portal.

Please any advice on what to do? I sent a mail already which they haven't responded to. I applied more than a month ago and we need enough time for visa process.

Thank you.
please note:I chose these universities cos their fees are within my budge.

how much do you want?

icon8:
What’s your rate, bro?

Depends on how far you are travelling from the airport but £100 shld be enough for taxi, mobile topup and maybe quick lunch

toyclicks:
Guys Pls, how much in GBP cash is advised to trvel along with. Basically for sorting urgent things e. cab etc

@Mimilyrics

Try NIMR in yaba, ask them if they have priority service

pittoilet:
Can I do a covid 19 test and get the results before Saturday? Considering tomorrow is an holiday.

Also where do you recommend? Synlab says they do not conduct tests at the moment.

I can help

elisinho:
Please I need £150 anyone up to help?

You only get taxed on payments that come through ur NI

johnez1987:
Good evening house, I have a question. Will I be taxed if I receive a certain amount from abroad every month either as salary or as normal money sent into my UK account?

Confirmation of Acceptance of Studies

It’s a document issued by the uni towards ur visa application. It shld include their license number, ur details, how much you have paid and the balance left and other bits

harmony940:
Please gurus what is Cas....thanks in advance.

Can you share the seller you bought from please

claremont:
I have the Amazon FireTV box and 2 firesticks, been using them for years to stream UK and international channels including DSTV full package etc. What you need to do is go on Aliexpress and search for IPTV, ask for a trial until you get the one with the channels you need.

Turkey is among the countries listed as safe travel corridor to the uk so people arriving into the UK from Turkey DO NOT have to quarantine

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/coronavirus-covid-19-travel-corridors

w890i:
Hey guys! Covid test depends on the airline pls! the UK doesn't require it though...but it depends on the route your airline would take...for example Emirates last 2 weeks going to the UK needed it because they would touch dubai ist...So i would say pls check with the airlines...Turkish...most definitely...BA not at all....GOODLUCK

gltv

mimilyrics:
Oh! Which one?

There’s one addon that shows DSTV channels will be nice to get it

mimilyrics:
I do but no, it doesn't have African DSTV channels. For African channels, I mostly watch YouTube LiveStreams while for movies, I use IrokoTV app.

Never knew the code works from U.K. and I have validated my number with them that I even get sms alerts

justwise:
Who was able to use GTBANK 737 code to send money from the UK? Trying to send money using it but no success so far

Guys, please does anyone use amazon fire stick here and does it have African DSTV channels?

Try movo or transferwise

seun4paul:
Hello all can anyone recommend a reliable virtual debit card either USD or GBP. THANKS

Its might be hard but possible though on a very very tight budget meaning no take away foods and transport not included

pittoilet:
Guys is it possible to survive on £100 (rent apart) per month as a student?

Depends, did she declare that she’s pregnant in her own application.

Although she’s entitled to extenuating circumstance as a new mother but because she has not enrolled yet, they might advice her to defer till next academic year to have time to take care of her new born.

ItzDora:
Good evening everyone, I’m asking for friend who is going for Masters at Bradford University. She has gotten her visa and that of her dependant last week. Now she put to bed less than a month. School’s deadline of resumption for int’ student is 19th October which she is likely not to meet up with. There’s a form she’s supposed to fill if she won’t resume 19th October(for extension of time with a good reason). Is child birth and time for baby’s visa application a cogent reason to give school for extension of time. Or any better reason?

Gurus in the house please help us.

How much pounds do you need

famzynet:
Do you still have pounds to exchange for naira? What is your rate?

Do you mean you want the pounds in cash and you are in Nigeria?

valcorp:
Please anyone with good rate for pounds (cash) in Nigeria. 3000 pounds needed....

Absolutely and that’s why I said the SOLE responsibility lies on the applicant to check all documents before submission

giselle237:
I’ll rather be trapped in a tight corner than take such risks that could lead to ban.. all the people chopping ban left, right and centre; pls what did these agents now do to help them after the heinous application??... nothing ..cause they have no powers as they claim....
my opinion is there’s no justification for putting it ALL on agent’s head. That’s just me though.

To be honest, in their defence, some agents are very stubborn and when u disagree with them they try to guilt trip you by saying “if you get rejected it’s your fault” so you end up being trapped in a tight corner.

Not to even mention their sweet and sugar coated mouth.

However, whatever application someone completes on your behalf, the onus is on you as the main applicant to peruse it before the final submission.

giselle237:
Everytime ... the agent, the agent... when will we ever accept that we are accomplices too
Agent, agent...
As long as it’s same individual that did biometrics the old form will come up.. has the sister left the UK now? It would be good if she is no longer there, otherwise...

I see, the rules must have changed then

TheGuyFromHR:
I know a couple of people who got PTA, but with a return ticket, so I don't think visa category matters.

I used to work with a bank back then in Nigeria and we didn’t sell PTA to tier 4 visa holders even with ur return ticket that’s why I asked

LagosismyHome:
PTA AND BTA is open to anyone travelling so not tied to the type or length of visa. However majority of the banks ask for return ticket

Is PTA available for tier 4 visa holders? I thought they are only available for visitor visa holders.

TheGuyFromHR:
If you can buy PTA, ask for the sterling equivalent of the US$4,000 allowance. I'm not sure if you can get sterling now, but that's a possiblity.

Second, converting USD to pounds in the UK might be unfavourable in terms of exchange rate. If you can, just buy the sterling now from naira and go with it.

Sort out ur TB test first

And by now I guess u already paid all or part of the tuition. The balance of the tuition and maintenance fee should be kept in your bank acct for 28 calendar days

Maintenance fee for unis inside london £1,265 per month x 9 months (minimum requirement) = £11,385

If your uni is outside London, its £1,015 per month for 9 months = £9,135

Use https://www1.oanda.com/currency/converter/ for your currency convertion but add 5 - 10 Naira on the exchange rate incase of fluctuations

Swiftlee:
Good morning good people.

I am sorry to break protocols. Please, pardon me. I should have gone through all the pages to know if my questions might have been addressed in the past but because of want of time, It has become really difficult.

I just got my CAS number from my institution in the UK and I am suppose to resume before 20 October.
1. Please, what should I do next as regards VISA and TB test. Should I apply for VISA first or TB test first. I am been sponsored through a scholarship.

2. I will be applying for priority VISA.

3. I have enrolled in my institution confirming my arrival this Autumn.

I am sorry this is coming at this time, COVID19 actually caused and delayed everything.

Help a brother with a brisk breakdown of the processes and the estimated cost.

Thank you for your response.
