Greetings all.
Please I need guide on the appropriate amount needed for POF for a family of 6.
Balance on school fee is £14,000 and the school is within London.
Thanks as I await your meaningful contributions.

This is a big project o.

If the fund is an issue, you may apply to schools outside London. POF for your dependants is 680GBP per month (against 845GBP per month in London).

That's too long,

Did you receive any NSF mail before ?

Got nsf mail asking got nothing for 3 different days I think this is strange

Please when a decision has been made on your account can they ask for new documents

Biodunoflagos:
Does it have to be the bank I registered or I can just walk to the bank I’m using right now ?

It has to be the bank you registered your bvn at, it could be any of the branch of same bank. You can try your other banks tho, but I changed mine at a branch of the same bank I registered it at

I am not sure this is possible. Once a decision is made that’s the end of your application process

Tracked my application now and it has been moved to VAC.

Bio on the 17th Abuja TLS

VISA Alert go plenty today by God’s Grace..Amen

Hi, from this info, it seems you doing another masters.
Did your school/visa authorities ask you on the reason for this? Did you have to explain this in your letter of motivation?

uulove:


There is actually no clearcut answer to this. In my opinion, it depends on your plans after graduation. Do you intend to return to Nigeria or remain in the UK? I ask because MPH jobs are very well paid in Nigeria but difficult to come by. In the UK, MPH jobs are not so easy to get unless you decide to do a PHD with which you can lecture.

I speak from experience because I did a Masters in Public Health. A classmate of mine returned to Nigeria and was fortunate to get a job with Clinton Health Access Initiative and was earning about 970k a month. They needed someone MPH who was fluent in Hausa.

Three other classmates decided to go the PHD route, two of them currently have lecturing jobs at MMU, Sheffield-Hallam and the other works as a researcher with the NHS.

I decided on the MSc nursing with registration route because it is shorter and you have a job waiting for you on graduation.

Yes IHS before Visa fees

Right! That's why students new to the UK should be strategic with the kind of jobs they sign up with and start planning for a job as soon as they arrive. This helps to understand the UK work environment and how to effectively sell themselves.
Some people will get the job on the 1st try but don't get disheartened if you don't get the 1st job that you interview for, treat it as preparation for the job interview that will get you the job.
Bottomline, learn to sell yourself well.

ThaSlimKidd:

Well said. I think a lot more people should come out and put out short time experiences like this. So that everyone involved in this "study/Japa visa" route understands what they are getting into. It's one thing to go through all these financial stress to get the visa to "study" , then another to actually get a job within the 2years PSW that is willing to sponsor you beyond the PSW. (Ps: you are required to apply for the PSW for yourself and each of your dependents.. Application is roughly £2k per person).
If that's not enough headache , you'd have to compete in a steadily saturated worksphere to secure jobs(that offer sponsorship) during the PSW. PSW can't be extended past the 2yrs(MSc) or 3yrs(PhD).
It's a lot of uncertainty and a bit worrying/scary personally but like we always say .."It is well". May God come through for each of us as we all thrive for better in the UK and beyond.

Fill the form in trade systems for PTA. Select your bank, visit your bank after approval.

Glag:
How do I go about my PTA I did return ticket so I can get pounds

Thank you. Which means I am on track. Is it after visa payment you pick a date and upload your documents? I want to be sure so I won't make any mistake

Yes, you can since it's still within 31 days of your application but if for any reason, you have to go for AR or the ECO requests for the statement to include dates after your submission (to clear any doubts), it might cost you your visa.

Mayor46:

What do you mean by “if I have the money” ?
I have removed it from December 31st.
So I have a printed statement from Dec 1 - Dec 30 that was printed on Dec 31st before the money was removed.
So can I use this statement while I put the money back into the account ?
