You are Welcome Switch. It seems that link is peculiar to my acct or smtin. I just saw a password reset link now. You should have a mail from TLScontact after you made payment or finished your application

Congratulations to everyone getting collection mails it shall be good news can someone please assist to respond to this

Hello Everyone been a silent reader.

I did my Biometrics Nov 15th, however when they added Nigeria to the Red list and stated that we can collect our passports back while they work on the application. I collected mine back.

I don’t know if it’s because we are yet to submit the passport back a decision is yet to be made on the application.

Do you think I should submit my passport back or just wait for outcome of the decision before submitting my passport. I have an exam coming up and I need my passport so I don’t want it getting trapped with them again.

Please advise could not returning the passport back cause delays in making a decision. Also they stated that we have 3months to use the passport and return it back or the application would be treated as null and void.

I just tracked and it says application transferred to VAC, finally!! It's been exactly 12 weeks now. We are looking forward to the collection email. I'm keeping faith and believing that it's positive; God willing. Thanks for all your support and encouragement. You are a star!


Congratulations Amelia victory at last wow

Hello Dupsysparkle.. Thankyou, really do Appreciate.
Yours is next in line. As regards your question, I feel you shld get intouch with UKVI via paid mail or call them midnight and ask them what you need to do as per when to return the passport. They will def give you the best advice in that regards.

My people!!! God done show!!! Received my visa today. Thank God; I was so afraid because of the big blunder I made regarding the previous refusal question. Nah God oh!! Wishing more visa rain for everybody.

Thanks for the advice @Nchabuomo

On my subsequent applications, shall I answer yes to that question and list both UK and Cyprus since I now have clarity or will it be a continuity problem since I didn't list the UK before. Kindly advise for next time. Thanks again, y'all!!!

Baba19:
WOW! Hello house, @giselle237, Prophetess Debbie, Good Morning and well done. Pleaseeee, I need your help. I just read this story and I may be in similar shoes. I applied for a UK visa 2 months ago. I submitted necessary docs, healthy business and personal account statement, marriage certificate, ties etc. I also listed all my previous travel history which includes roughly 14 countries- The US, UAE, South Africa, Qatar, Bahrain, The Bahamas, Cayman Island, Jamaica, Mexico; amongst others. I want to believe my good travel history, finances, ties make me a good candidate to consider.

Now, here is my main issue and fear based on the above. They asked a question about have you been to the UK in the last 10 years and I said no which is correct. Have you been banned, deported, I also said no which is correct. Have you been refused a visa to the UK or any other country and I said yes and listed one country which was Cyprus with the reason- the visa was severely delayed and when they checked my hotel booking, it had been cancelled. The embassy even reached out to me regarding this but the course I was going for had already passed so I didn't bother rebooking the hotel or taking it up with them. Now, the issue is that I thought these questions related to the last 10 years. So, I didn't include the fact that I was refused a UK Visa back in 2006; 15 years ago when I was a Master's student. It was only after I read this OP's story that I went back to the form and realized the 10 year question only related to the visitation. But the question on refusal was based on one's entire life. Is there anything I can do? Can I write to them to explain that I misunderstood the question and declare that I was refused a UK visa back in 2006? What can be done since I mistakenly declared only 1 refusal of Cyprus instead of 2- Cyprus and the UK? What are my chances? I am really palpitating and don't know what to do to fix this please.

I would really appreciate any advice I can get. God bless.

Thank you so much, gentlesoul and everybody. He sends his best wishes to you too.

I was so worried after reading through the threads here as I joined after submission and we didn't include any major information about ties, property etc. and he didn't audit his bank statements to ensure no erratic transactions etc. We just submitted as is. Thankful for God's grace and favour and wishing the same for everybody. Many more celebrations to come.
