Congrats , cheers
Pls can you share us briefly about the questions they ask at the POE, I'll be flying to uk as first timer towards March ending also. Thanks in advance

Thanks to everyone here that helped me with my visa application. I arrived into the UK yesterday morning (first timer), spent little time at border control.

Nobosy asked for yellow card.

During collection of your passport from the VAC, will that paper that they ask you to bring during submission be collected back from you or will you be allowed to take it with you after you collect your passport.

Kindly reply, as it is urgent.

There is going back. Just cancel the appointment and book a new one. Infact, you can pay for these services there without including in the application.

There's no going back.Try get the cash...you
must pay for it.
I've experienced this before.

I had my biometrics today, no problem whatsoever. I also get a notification that my application has been transferred.

Ashirioluwa:
You should be fine. Let us know how it goes when you get back

Sorry 10:30am

Candybright:
10:30pm and £55 is what category?

I initially got an appointment for next week Tuesday, on the email, the premium lounge reads 10/12/2019. Just checked back and was able to cancel and appointment for tomorrow 10:30pm (no premium lounge).

I just want to be sure there is no longer a problem

Ashirioluwa:
Why don't you try to cancel it

URGENT URGENT URGENT
Gurus in the house, please help me

I booked an appointment for 10:30pm tomorrow and I have paid my 55 pounds, but when I checked the email they sent to me, I discovered that I had selected - premium lounge (that must have been a mistake).

I don't need a premium lounge, please if I decide not to pay the 42,000 tomorrow at TLS, will there be any problem

Hello Everyone, I tried booking an appointment for Monday earlier today but the payment gateway is rejecting my card. What can I do.

It is the same card I used to pay for the $128 application fee
