When I saw the post...I struggled to look away and ignore....I seriously do not understand the part 'if you know what you are doing'..does it mean people like us who applied since December and are still expecting to hear from them do not know what we are doing? All applications are not the same. If yours came out favourable and really fast, just thank God for the favour.

laeffizy:
This is untrue, and quite misleading. It's not in our hands who gets the visa or not. I was delayed for over three months even with a legit admission letter, a bursary attached to it and up to date documents. The requirements for a visa are on their website and except you have issues with your proof of accomodation, finances..you're most likely on the right track and everything else lies in the hands of the person approving or disapproving.

I got mine after series of mails and follow up from my supervisor.
Let's just say you're one of the very lucky few!

Hello everyone, I'm new here.

First of, thank you to every contributors here, I read from page 600 till here and I've learnt new things together with what I had researched, nonetheless, I still have further questions.

1. How much (or range) do I have to have in my account to show proof of funds for student visas?

2. How much (or range) is the medical insurance for student visas too? If you could pls add some examples, it'd be helpful.

3. About the Police report, how can one get it? Do I just walk into any police station and request for it or it has to be an headquarters or somewhere else? If there's an example of a place, pls suggest. I stay in Ibadan so I can work with Lagos too.

4. On the Medical report, can it be together with the Radiological report too or separately? Name of health centers I can do that too? (Price range pls?)

5. I have read about accommodation reservation here but I didn't see any website, can someone help with that too?

6. Finally, for the Birth certificate, will the one from NPC suffice?

Pls keep in mind my questions are for student visa. Thank you so much. I look forward to the replies.�

Things are really slow now with the high commission especially Lagos, i guess they have a lot of back logs and also Covid,by the way Some people who Submitted in January have not gotten response,so you will have to be very patient.

Yeah ideally it is 8 weeks or even less. Before covid and all a friend of mine got hers in 4 weeks, the two different times she applied,that was 2017 and 2019.But in 2020 it became really slow, a family friend submitted in Late October and Got his visa in February at some point we even thought he was lying because we knew it doesn't take that long but when i saw this thread i now understand. The Guy is in SA now UJ precisely.

19000 rands is equivalent to #480k plus, this funds will not be enough for both you and your baby to travel to SA....

The Eco knows you are not coming back to Nigeria if given the visa ....

Your hubby needs to source for funds if he truly wants you and his son to come over.... I assume you guys would purchase return flights ticket, and feeding for the duration you will be there with him??

From my observation in this wonderful platform I will advice he finds the account and then you can reapply instead of appealing according to a previous poster that got denied,he said he stated he was denied on his letter of introduction and he was granted after reapplying, best of luck and to us all waiting �
