Pacmandude: First of all, I have to say sorry and appeal to you to calm down because I am sure you are just as confused as I am and possibly worried. These emails come worded in strange ways, they can be interpreted in various ways which make it hard to understand what the way forward is. To be sincere, I do not know the best way to proceed but just like @justwise suggested the proper thing to do now is to email and call UKBA relaying the information in the 2 emails you have received and let them interpret and tell you what do to next. From my understanding, I think the original refusal has been overturned but there is a conflict because of the 2 separate cases of an ongoing appeal and a new application. Best guess, it seems your new application must have provided new evidence to grant you the visa and an email was sent to the tribunal to withdraw your appeal on the old application but the tribunal is saying the appeal should have been withdrawn before the new application was made. However, we can't be sure until you make that call. Just remain calm and make the call. It will end well, we are here for you. |

Pacmandude: If I recall correctly, you were looking at reapplying for the visa while you wait for the appeal process. The question now is "did you reapply?". I hope you haven't, if you have, hopefully, you can get a refund. Fingers crossed. |

Ibkbosson: In as much as we sympathize with all candidates who get refused (and of cause I will admit that it is easier to say when you yourself don't get a refusal) but considering the number of applications submitted to UKBA on a daily basis from candidates all over the world, it would be very hard to expect the ECO to call schools or jobs to confirm these things. Yes, the humane thing to do is make that call to the school but what is the limit, at what point do they decide which calls to make and the ones not to make. I do not think UKBA will have the resources or time to call for every error or omissions, that's a big burden, however, someday they might consider expanding their scope to be able to do this. I do believe some ECOs will feel bad because they are not allowed to make these decisions to call or confirm such omissions, they are only working within the restrictions of the business or office. I hope you understand. I will advise that we keep supporting each other by providing relevant information to members who need them. A post like the one from @ibkbosson goes a long way to prevent someone else from making the same or similar mistake. Thank you all, all the best. |

swtjane: I thought you meant he wasn't earning up to 18,600 at the moment. But from your response, he already earns more than 18,600 so you are free to proceed. Please just make sure you have your calculations well documented with evidence to show it adds up to an amount greater than 18,600. All the best. 1 Like |

swtjane: While you wait for the response from MreSBee, please note that if the employer has just agreed to increase his pay then you are advised to apply after at least 6 months counting from the month when he starts to officially receive the £18600 pay. I hope you understand, all the best! 4 Likes |

chrisj2: You are right, no one really knows what they actually look out for because it is subjective and depends on the brainwave of the ECO at the time. But so that we are clear, you are not expected to show the total log for all days in the 18 months or in my case 4 year period. Just have a few days within each month or like you said important chats within the period. I believe it can even be a few chats in one day for each month but no one knows what the ECO reviewing their application will feel like seeing. For me, I think travel history to see each other or financial assistance between the couple is more important. All the best. 1 Like |

themusketeer: You have to show what you have, emails, whatsapp, voice& video call logs should do. I'm guessing that includes prints of the facetime call log as well (I don't know if that's possible) |

Dunky2: Only clear option I can think of is to contact home office. Try both the call and email option. Obviously, you would have had some email correspondences with UKBA during the application process so you should be able to retrieve your application number which would be required when you contact them. Try to get as much information about the application in 2006 which could be used to retrieve your letter. 1 Like |

chrisj2: HOLD ON GUYS... let us calm down and understand the situation, so we can help one another. I think taking a step back to read all that's been written and try to make sense of it, will be the best approach now. There's been too much conflicting information and it is a bit confusing majorly because you all do not understand the actual situation of the applicants and sponsor. Let me try to summarize what I can gather thus far, please confirm if this is right? 1. The sponsor (husband) is in the UK as a naturalized citizen 2. The applicant (wife) is in Nigeria with a child whose father is the sponsor 3. The child was born in Nigeria (guessing) 4. The applicant and child are currently in Nigeria 5. The information required is: a. Should settlement applications be submitted for both wife and child (with two application & Ihs fees) b. Can the sponsor apply for a British passport for the child in Nigeria? If yes, what is the process? c. If the child is able to get a British passport then the settlement applicant and fees would not be required, yes! d. If the child gets a British passport, it also helps to boost the applicant's chances of getting a settlement visa, yes! Let us try to answer QUESTION B, thanks. |

Launna29: lol, do not worry about such things. This is a first and I'm sure she won't have been turned back even if she didn't have the photocopy. TB certificate is not a border check requirement, but so you don't panic at the airport kindly travel with copies of all your documents. Your sponsor can send you pictures or scans of the documents for you to print when the application supporting documents package is returned ok. Once you get the visa, the likelihood of been turned back at the airport is slim (but not impossible). This is just my opinion. |

Minnienellie24: Unfortunately, I did not have to get a NARIC assessment so I do not know the process. So here are my suggestions: 1. If someone in the group can confirm that they submitted a degree certificate with a support letter from a Nigerian Institution as their English language requirement and they got the visa. Then that should be enough evidence to support your gamble. If no one can support suggestion 1 above, then, by all means, refer to suggestion 2 below 2. Go on NARIC website and start the process as soon as possible, you have 10 days or so from the date your biometric was taken to submit supporting docs. All the best!! |

stargirl1628: Well since you have paid for the application and submitted, all you can do is wait. Be sure you completed the correct form and you answered all questions truthfully and to the best of your knowledge, I am sure you were exempted based on one of your answers but if you need to pay you will be contacted through email with a link for payment. Just like the lady you met at TLS, most of us here paid the IHS fee but we do not know your circumstance so we cannot compare apple for apple, just relax and wait for the next step or your vignette.

Priorygroup: I am sure it will be safe, it is a courier service which other people use. Nothing is 100% guaranteed but it should be reliable. But since you do not know when your passport will be returned, I believe you will have enough time to return to PH, wait and plan to return to Lagos to collect, incase you prefer to collect in person. |

stargirl1628: YOUNG MAN OR WOMAN, please do not take such an expensive gamble with so much money involved. Kindly ensure that you get a NARIC assessment if you do not have a certificate from the UK or other recognized English speaking countries. Unfortunately, Nigeria is not one of those countries. 1 Like |
