If they confirm your CAS number used, it means your visa has been granted by the UKVI.

Good morning everyone, please those with experience on this, how long does it take to get a decision email from UKVI after you get this email - "The status of your Confirmation of Acceptance for Studies (CAS) number which was issued to you to support your visa application has now been updated to ‘Used’ by the UK Home Office, which means that your visa application is being processed and you should receive a decision from UKVI very shortly.". (I paid for priority)

When is your biometric?

I completed my student visa application yesterday, while completing same i was asked about accommodation and i answered that i will be staying in the school hostel but on my CAS school said they will not be providing accommodation since i didnt pay for it. I want to ask guru in the house if this is not a serious issue.

Just pay 8,500 into IOM standard chartered account, and go to their office between monday to friday 9am to 1pm to make the changes to the address. they will attend to you immediately and reissue your certificate. I just did same last month.

Regards,

Hello everyone, Gurus in the house. Firstly, please I'd like to ask if I should be worried about the UK address on my TB Certificate. Here's the thing, I did the TB test in August while I wasn't sure which University offer I will be accepting ( I have a couple of offers from different universities). So I have just decided to go with an offer from a Uni. in Cardiff but my TB certificate does not carry this University's address but my previous flat address in Scotland. I hope this is not a problem when applying for my visa?

Secondly, can I use the bank statement that was printed 3 weeks ago in applying for TIER 4 VISA? (I still have my maintenance funds and all intact in the account). I and my family will be applying together, and these are the documents that I am planning to submit with my application;

CAS
DOCUMENTS LISTED ON MY CAS
BANK STATEMENT
KIDS BIRTH CERT.
MARRIAGE CERT. & WIFE'S CHANGE OF NAME ADVERT.
PASSPORTS
LETTER OF INTRODUCTION & SPONSOR (WIFE AND KIDS)
TB CERT.

I hope you can assist me in reviewing this and give me your suggestions. Thanks.

You can use stanbic ibtc. it will take a week to process.
