Good evening my people, I have a quick question...
My spouse and I are applying for work visa and we are required to book for biometrics with Tls..on getting to the website, spouse was able to get a near date while the kids and I got a farther date. Is it possible for us all to go on my Spouse’s date for the biometrics or how can we do it such that we'll all take the biometrics at once as we'll all have to travel down to lagos for it. Pls, is there a way we can capture on the same day?
Also, the 3 months time frame for applying for visa, is it the time between submitting an application and tentative date for travelling or the 3 months start counting from when you go for biometrics? Pls I need to know cos I've submitted the application and I'm planning on travelling jan 2022..
Please keep searching for dates. At midnight. You will be shocked. Dates spring up and you might be lucky to get a date same day as your husband. It doesnt have to be same time. If you get a same day self service appt with him, you all can go in with the earliest appt.
However if this does not work, you can pay for flexi appt and book any date. Flexi appt allows you to go in anytime i think but u must have a pre existing booking.

Thanks very much for this response. Ill keep checking for the dates....another thing is hubby is planning to travel around October while the kids and I are planning to join in January 2022, but we have just submitted visa application forms together. I hope there won't be any problem about the app for the kids and I being that our date for travelling is over 3months from when we are applying?

Okay. I find it largely depends on the location (which state you are in). In Abuja, Zenith/Access Bank has almost always come through for me. But most banks mostly have at the same and experience shortage at the same time. Once there was a shortage someone recommended I try the smaller banks as they might not have exhausted their quota for the week. Try put in the request at least a week before your trip that way even if there is a shortage you there's some time for it to resolve before your trip.

Hey People,

Please, someone made a few mistakes on their application, they haven't paid IHS or visa fee but they cant go back and edit.

Can they just open a new application on a new email?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by lexy2lexy: 8:08pm On Aug 19, 2021
Guys,

I just filled my application and indicated 10 days as duration of trip. Didn’t realize one has to quarantine for 10 days on arrival. What options do I have since I have made payment? Also, is there an email address for visa enquiries?

Will appreciate your comments

cancel the application. And ask for a refund.
Then go on to fill a new application, pay a new visa fee to include 10 fays quarantine and then your holiday time. Your money will be refunded within 28 days

Thank you wonderful people, My cousin application was granted, application submitted on 30th July and email came in yesterday evening for collection. picked up today 6months visa granted. Thanks to everyone dropping tips and asking all sort of question no matter how foolish your question might sound some in underground too trying to ask same questions, Please dont feel ashamed asking, make sure you get your application right.


had 2 travel experience 2014 UAE & Russia 2021
Had a closing balance of 2,066,000
unmarried partner
wrote a covering letter.
He has a visa to South Africa and Bahamas but couldn't go cos of covid, this was explained in the letter.
included 10 days for self isolation plus 5 days holiday
unmarried partner also wrote a letter of permission for partner to travel
submitted niece birth certificate that stays with him plus partner employment letter also declared her income too, this is to serve as a tie to Nigeria.

I think this is all we packaged to get the visa, God bless the moderators and every contributor .

His opening balance was 1.4M
His salary 450k per month
His expense was just the flight ticket 550 gbp
My brother sent him an invitation and will accommodate him during his stay. He sent his passport and other documents.
His expenses per month is 100k
He has his niece of 10 yrs living with him and gives her 5k monthly
I also wrote in the cover letter that my cousin and his partner contributes in support of running the house.

Hello great people,
Please has anyone had issues booking appointment for biometrics on TLS website. Tried like 50 times to select time slot for the assisted regular and self service options but it wont proceed to the checkout for payment. Few times it went to checkout, bank card payment was not processed.
Any ideas to resolve this?

Okay, good morning to all the oga's and madam's in the house may God grant all of you your hearts desire as you contribute meaningfully to humanity.

I'm actually new here and I've read virtually from page No.1 to this present page and i must say I've learnt a lot plus a renewed mindset. Thanks to everyone.

So here's my status which I'll need valuable advice from you all.

1. I've a B.Eng about 8yrs now, industrial experience with Airtel and Huawei telecommunications as a site engineer and a few orthers, lost the job about 4yrs now.

2. Went in farming afterwards, as 1+1 wasn't turning out to be 2 with the farm so I had to relocated back to Lagos 2019 and have been driving with Uber/Bolt since then.

3. I have 3 direct dependences, a boy (2years) and a girl (10 months) with my fiance hoping/working to formalize the marriage mid next yr. Spouse is also a graduate and both of us graduated from same school, same year from one of the federal universities in the SSR.

4. I have an elder brother(same parents) who lives and works in the UK with 2kids and a wife all of them with a British passport for over 10yrs now. He has a house of his own and his wife works as well.

5. I've never had an Int'L before.
This is where I find contradicting. My brother bears different Surname (our dad's) but I bear our clan Surname name

e.g: his name is Michiel VICTOR
My Birth cert is having: Glory Hillary VICTOR
University certificate: Glory Hillary VICTOR
So I later changed to: Glory Hillary IKOSI
NB: Capitalized names are surnames and these are just examples but not our real names.

I did a court and a news paper certification to effect this change of names and the Surname name on my educational credentials is bearing same name with that of my brother in the UK but my NIM, BVN and bank details are having grand fathers name same as what I've on my birth certificate. Confusing right(pls don't mind me, I lost my dad at a very tender age... So part of the reason for lack of proper guildiance)

Now. I wish to migrate (japa) grin alone first to the western world while my wife(to be) and the kids join me later.

1) Which among these countries do you advice I migrate to considering my profile as stated above?
Australia, Canada, US or Uk

2) I plan on going for my Int'L passport soon, which name do I use for the Int'L.
Even my Drivers licence is bearing both surnames which is my two name both english, my dad's name (English) and the clan's name(native). (A big mess I suppose)

3. Do I have any leverage if i chose to migrate to the UK since I've a brother who is a citizen over there with a good job (programmer) and a house of his own. If NO, which other country would you advise?

Pls your intellectual advice is needed here as i want to do things the right way and getting it right at every first trial.

Thanks in anticipation.
