Yes you will need to swear an avidavit stating specifically that the date of birth on the waec certificate Is wrong and then state your correct date of birth

Good morning,everyone. I got this response this morning from UKVI;

“With regards to your enquiry about the status of your application, your visa is still being processed and its status is Awaiting a Decision.“

Biometrics was done 5th,April. Family Visitor’s visa
Saturday 21st May is supposed to be my travel date.

did you pay 1500 or 3000 british pounds as application fee? Will you be staying in the UK for more than 6 months?
If not it is not family visitor visa. Family visitor visa also takes minimum of 24 working weeks to be completed so you have it all wrong.
So again check the visa type you are referring to—- for standard visit visa it will take minimum 30 working days.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Bosslady25: 9:46am On May 17, 2022
No oh... I thought there is a difference in visiting a family member as opposed to being a tourist.
It’s standard visit visa.

It’s standard visit visa.
if visiting a family member less than 6 months and/or if they are on a temporary visa like work or student it’s still standard visitor visa. Also if applying for tourism it’s standard visitor visa. Applying for short course, same standard visitor visa.

The family visitor visa is as I have explained above and for visiting spouse, child, relative to care for them, can stay more than 6 months, might need to pay health surcharge and costs between 1500 to 3000gbp.
Hopefully they answer you this week as you have entered the 6th working week.

How do you get this application tracker page? I've been searching and haven't been able to find a link. Can you please share a link to the page?

solid3:
For those who did biometrics on 28th March, how far any news?

I sent paid email on Monday, they replied yesterday that a decision has been made further asking me to wait for 10 working days to get collection mail from VAC.

This morning, I tracked my application and it has moved from DMC to Transfer to VAC.

I did not get any refusal email (I'll never get that IJN �). Can I start dancing yet?

Please, I'm asking for a sister, and I'm confident that I'll receive the greatest response here, so please help me out; here's her speaking now;

I am a 36-year-old single woman who has been working for over two years with a monthly salary of 300K and a savings of 2m+plus. I plan to visit the United Kingdom as a tourist in September for 10days and will be budgeting 1m for the trip. My company's CAC profile shows that it is inactive. I am planning applying by 1st week of next month

Could you please provide me some honest opinion on my chances of getting a 6-month UK tourist visa considering the points below

1. I am a single lady of 36years
2. My company's CAC profile is indicating Inactive[i][/i]
3. My monthly salary vs my saving vs budgeted amount for the trip
4. I don't have any landed property yet
5. I don't have any travel history

Please help out.
Thanks.

Ask them to do what sensisosu did. A decision should have been made on their applications by now.
