Go to Oyin Jolayemi street in VI. That's where the stuff is being done. They will handle it. Go there and quarrel with them.

Hello Members, Please does anyone have idea of nearest Self Service Biometrics date for ABUJA, Thanks. I want to know Because I have some plans... Is it up to a month from now??

Anyone?

mimilyrics:
Seeing is believing. Don't pay for accommodation till you view it. You can book AirBnB or hotel via booking.com though and you go check accommodation when you get here.

Thank you

Has anyone received CAS from University of Lincoln? September applicants in the house.

Hello any visa news today?? Seems they have stop giving visa o since april.

Please what is the name of your school?

angel4sure:
Good morning my people and to all gurus in the house. Happy new week. Pls ooo my school deposit is £1000, which conversion rate do I use so I know how much to pay in Naira. Thank you

I really appreciate your response. I'm aware that each member of my household will be paying around 2k pounds for PSW I.e if I'm unable to get Tier 2 sponsor.

That's fine. It will be taken care of. I just need to know the process to follow. Please put me through the process and Thanks for your genuine concern.

Have you gone through legal adoption of him?
Besides why do you want to bring everyone on Student dependant Visa that is subject to conditions?
What if you were asked to leave after your study? or you think PSW is automatic?
Don't bite more than what you can chew

Hmmm. Thank you Duchess

duchess90:
Hello,

You have to legally adopt him, this is done through the court and it is a process. Bear in mind ,you will be terminating the rights of the natural parents to this child.

The process can be quite lengthy,you ideally should have lived physical with this child for 3months before approaching the court, the court will engage a welfare officer to determine your eligibility for instance age, marital status, finances, etc.

If and when satisfied,they can start the process of a court order, you wil need a family court lawyer for this process and it might take awhile. Do some reading on this first and see if you want to go through this process.

Please do not try to falsify a court order for legal adoption, UKVI will always go the extra mile to verify documents on sensitive cases like this.

When you have succeeded in getting the court order, then you can start the process of a child dependant visa because he is now your child.

Cheers

Yes it's possible. Let me know the location you are going then I can advise. Have done for people here especially coming to Glasgow and environs. Please make everything open here/unless you want my contact.

Duchess/justwise/mimilyrics and other gurus,

Pls is it possible to rent and pay for UK accommodation while still in Nigeria? Or how can a family go about sorting accommodation so as not to be stranded on arrival into UK. I am just thinking ahead...i intend going with my family.

Please enlighten me on the best approaches.

duchess90:
Hello,

I am honestly surprised that this argument of verification is still going on. Don't be deceived, UKVI will check whatever they want to.

Here is a screenshot of an example of bank documents checks and a link if you want to have an idea of how this is done.
https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/576713/Documentation-verification-v1.pdf

Happy reading

Cheers

Thanks for this. . it settles it.
This usually causes huge arguments on several platforms and everyone always has a bit to say without proof. The little consent form you sign to verify all documents submitted is enough hint at the length they would go to check if they suspect foul play.

Yes, not every application will be checked thoroughly which means some are lucky enough to scale through even after they have touched POF. they cant possible waste that much time on millions of applications so most will scale through

To be on the safe side and have enough ammo to fight your fight if things go south, don't mess with your Proof of funds until you get a decision made from a paid call/mail or you receive a collection mail.

@justwise

I know how you ensure things like this don't get posted on the forum. i would like to draw your attention to this as an admin.. is it ok because they have paid to 'advertise'?

Hello,

If anyone responds to you please take that date with a pinch of salt. Half of the people applying for study visa are not necessarily on Nairaland (random approximation)

So the date you envision may be gone in a minute.

Thank you Jesus

Congratulations!!!!

Was you POF intact till the visa came out or did you withdraw out of it?

Dear the Gurus in the house,
Please I want your advice on the choice of Course of study being offered:
I have the following offered courses for admission and considering which is the best to choose when it comes to career prospect in the UK:

1. MSc Investment Management ( Henriot watt University) 1yr

2. MSc Business Analytics and Consulting ( Henriot watt University) 1yr

3. MSc Business Analysis and Consulting (University of Strathclyde) 1yr

4. MSc International Business with Data Analytics with Advanced Practice (Ulster University, Birmingham Campus) 2yrs

Note ; my career has been in banking for over a decade.

Thank you as I receive your candid opinions on this.

Good morning my fellow nairalanders.
I just got a conditional offer from Keele University. I also got unconditional for University of Bolton which I have done the interview yesterday. The fees for Keele is 18900p, deposit is 2000p but am willing to pay 4000p. The fees for bolton is 12950 which is quite cheap and deposit is 4500p which I also can afford. My issue with Bolton is that I may not be able to meet up with the POF before CAS. My question is; if I eventually settle for keele are there jobs and affordable accomodations in Keele? I plan going with my wife as dependants. I await quick responses.
Thanks in advance.

Are you saying you applied to those 3 universities in February and you haven't gotten response from any of them?
author=DarkEvanny post=112730532]Has anyone received offer/admission from Sheffield Hallam , Bournemouth & Chester University for September intake ? I Applied since February still no response [/quote]

Hello guru in the house,
Please I have a question.
Does university ranking has impact on career prospects... I mean the chances of getting job faster than low rank universities in the UK or it doesn't matter?

In a way, it does. Yes there are other factors, but an employer will favor a graduate from Oxford, Cambridge or any other of the Russell Group schools (UK’s equivalent of Ivy League) over other schools.
Yes there’s other factors like your course (if it’s in demand), your qualifications etc but please check the ranking of the schools you’re applying to. Most people just focus on cheap tuition without checking ranking.

All uk visas are taking longer than usual at the moment.. if it’s been up to six weeks since your application and you’ve not gotten any response you can send a paid mail. Most people are now receiving decisions between 4-6 weeks after biometrics for now.

Hi guys, I have a little question please.

I believe the primary motive of this UK stuff is to leave this country.

But I have been wondering. We are to get a year visa for this whole thing. What's the possibility of one staying in UK even after his/her course? Especially those of us going with our family.

Because he no go make sense make person come back to this country after 1 or 2 years.

Many of us are putting everything we have into this just to get a better life. Hope it worth it?

What are the chances of one staying longer even after studies?

Please I need to be enlightened.

The only realistic person i have seen in recent time.
Bro the chances of staying back is 50/50 there is no guarantee that PSW will be issued after study o.
If you have more than enough,you can risk it even if it doesn't go as plan you will have something to fall back on.
But it is better to go and weather the storm first,then move the family when you have a job that guarantees your stay.
Coming back to resettle in Nigeria after 2yrs gap no be something one can absorb o.

If you have a known and trusted person that can do that for you,you can as well check into a BnB but it will be expensive at the long run,but in the absence of that don't ever pay anyone over the internet o.

Someone just highlighted the legal process of adoption.
Paying is one thing, getting it is another, it's not about the payment bro, it's about them granting you the Visa,it is not automatic.
Finish your study first,when you get a job that guarantees your stay,you can kick start the process,but as it stands now i will advise you to resist the pressure from your wife.

Ranking only comes to play when applying to jobs at what I called top rated employers,your grade and your depth will secure you a Job,you can then use experience gather to move on to better jobs.
No be everyone go go Harvard o

Of course not everyone will go to Harvard. But to say ranking is not a factor in securing a job post study will be entirely false.
Ranking is important, it should be considered ALONGSIDE other factors.
