Hi Duchess and every other contributor,

Please will a certificate of earning from Upwork suffice as reference for two years? I'm a freelancer on the platform.

Yes, without any doubt.

All the best!

Good morning fellow Nairalander(@duchess90, mimilyrics, justwise and other gurus)
Pls I need an urgent support on this as I'm about to apply for my visa.
I needed 21M for my POF for a family of 4 and I had 24M in my account which I started counting from June 2nd. By 16th of June, the money increased to 24.9M and later increased to 25.2M by 23rd of June.
While waiting for 28days, forex suddenly threw things off balance. As at last week, the 25.2M was just enough for me alone while this week, as the Naira appreciate, the fund is enough for my wife and me.
Now my question,

1) Can I still use this statement for the two of us or for me alone since the fund had dropped below requirements at some point though not by withdrawal but by forex fluctuation?

2) For study gap of 10yrs, I have employment and promotion letters, is reference letter still necessary?

I think you are not going to be affected if you start your POF before the floating of naira.

All the best!

Work-wise? None. As my consultant told me that it is not a requirement to show/prove your employment status but appears they’d like to know what have you been doing all these years which I totally understand. Other than that, I submitted my degree certificate, transcript, proof of language, CAS, offer letter, scholarship letter, bank statement, dependant-related documents etc.

If you’ve been working on any of the freelancers’ websites, you could open the page that shows your profile and submit it as a proof of working over the years. Meanwhile, you can as well add other documents you earlier mentioned.

All the best!

Anyone studying Nursing in Salford? Specifically, considering placements, can someone work enough to support tuition and other expenses while studying Nursing in Uni of Salford? Does the course schedule give enough time and are there placement opportunities where students can work and make money in the hospitals? Pls your response(s) are highly appreciated.

Please, quit the notion of making enough to support yourself and pay tuition fees. You won’t have the luxury of time to work except if you don’t want to follow the rules of 20hrs/week during term time.

For the placement, I’m not sure if you’re going to be paid during placement but you could do your 20hrs. I’m not a nurse nor Salford student but I know someone studying nursing there.

All the best!

Hi everyone,

I’m about to apply for my visa

However, my dependants passport isn’t out yet and my visa agent said they need her passport data page even though she’s not coming with me now.

I am leaving as soon I get my visa but she’s leaving by April.

Is this true ?

Can I not apply for my visa without her passport?

@ dduchess90 Kindly assist

It is not a must! They should enter her details and leave out the data page. A lot of people have done it successfully without attaching their dependents data page.

All the best!

Giftnna:
Please who has used Ethiopian air? There’s a 1 hour stopover at Switzerland. Did you need a transit visa for it?

No!

All the best!

dduchess90:
Hello

Switzerland will require transit


Cheers

The Switzerland is just for refueling without alighting from the flight.

Kudos to you for the selfless service.

All the best!

Bambarino:


what of Ethiopian Airlines:

LOS-ADD-Switzerland-Manchester

You don’t need transit visa, the Switzerland is for refueling and you’re not alighting from the flight. If in doubt confirm from customer service representative.

All the best!

Hello House

Anyone has Idea of how to make dollar payment for IHS and Visa.

It's an emergency, my previous plan failed, need an alternative.

Dollar card; by buying dollars at the black market rate from Abokis or ask friends or relatives to pay for you.

All the best!

anayolity:
Hello House.

Compliments of the season.

Please anyone knows the cheapest airline between 400-500k in lagos going to UK, Glasgow precisely.

Please i need urgent answers.

Thank you

Try to check at midnight you might be lucky. Check airlines like Ethiopian, Air Maroc, etc.

All the best!

boltwings:
what will be the balance after the 1000 deposit. I can engage myself in part time jobs there

Your part time jobs will not be sufficient to pay for your school fees because you have just 20hr/week term time to work except on school holidays.

All the best!

Seunphilip:

You have to prepare for interview if you have left school more than five years and if there is any disparity between your choosing course and your degree they may call for interview.

There are different reasons for interview but interview was norm before Covid-19. Meanwhile, you can’t determine who will get interview and who will not.

All the best!

pls how long does it take for a passport to be returned to the VAC. i got brp mail since the 14th. Application was transferred to VAC on the 15th. now as i emailed tls they said that my passport is being returned pls how long does that take. my flight is on the 30th.
abuja tls

Give it a trial by visiting their office in person provided your location is not far from the TLS.

All the best!

babyfaceafrica:


Good afternoon, can it be paid with the normal Nigerian mastercard and visa

No, dollar card! Buy dollars at black market rate fund your domiciliary account. Better still, look for relatives or friends to help you out.

All the best!

zanebaddo:
wow congrats mind sharing some information with us?
your study gap? did submit employment letter or just reference letter that is if your study gap is much? was there an interview?

My brother don’t bother too much when you get to the bridge you will cross it successfully.

Make use of reference letter from your workplace, their monthly transfers to your account, copy of work ID, anything that can prove that you’re working there.

Please, don’t give yourself too much tension on your monthly pay. I believe that would not be a barrier in securing your visa provided other things are in place (legit).

All the best!

danzolla32:
Please , have paid for priority but it's showing on my visa application payment confirmation, service option: (standard)... Is it normal? Or it's supposed to be writing as (priority).how do I know I am on priority? Ease urgent

Never mind! The front desk officers at the TLS will indicate it for you on your document checklist before biometric.

All the best!

twiceinmay01:
Good morning house. Please I will like to know what PREMIUM LOUNGE is when filling the visa application form. My agent asked me to pay 500 pounds for my for my self and my wife priority visa which I’m the dependent, after he did the application and sent me the documents, I find out that he only paid 250 pound priority visa fee for only my wife which is the student, then when I asked him, he said there is no priority for dependent and he only applied for PREMIUM LOUNGE for me. My concern now is is there anything like Premium lounge and what is the price because he’s having extra 250 pounds with him now.

Please, hold him and collect your change else don’t give him his balance. In case of other time, quickly google it so as to have an idea of what the person is telling you.

All the best!

fanpaul2:
Hello all,

Please can I upgrade to priority at the point of biometrics? Please does anyone has a idea if this can work?

Thanks in anticipation for your responses.

You can buy priority service before/on the day of biometric. Meanwhile, it is not possible after biometric.

All the best!

gaetano:
oh! OK. That means me that mine is 8 years, I'm getting for sure hmmm ok

You might not get. It depends on other factors too such as career change. For you, if you are a graduate of computer related course, you have been working in the same line, and you’re going for computer related course for M.Sc you might be excluded from the interview.

All the best!

fanpaul2:


The "buy" option is blanked out and can't be clicked on. Is this not normal?

Please, try and sign out and login again. However, you can clear your browser cache.

All the best!

@duchess @Gloriyah

Please, I was able to book my biometrics appointment date but now want to pay for priority, its then asking me to reselect another appointment date, and no good dates are coming forward. Please, is it not possible to upgrade to from standard to priority without choosing another biometrics date? If its possible, please how can this be done?

You can pay for priority without changing your date. Select priority from “buy” then go to your cart and make payment. With this, it won’t affect your already selected date.

All the best!

What has age got to her being your mother?

I presumed he stated his age to know if there is a limitation/restriction on the age range one’s parent can sponsor.

Jossywise:
Hello guys, please I applied on Monday but till now I am yet to get appointment confirmation mail from the TLScontact.

What can I do?

Take screenshot of the date where it is showing on your TLS dashboard. It is allowed, just to show them that you have an appointment for that day.
