Pls I need some advice on my visa application. My situation is a bit complicated, and my agent hasn’t really given me any solid guidance.
I’m applying for a long-stay student visa for my Master’s in Dublin (16-month program). I’ve already paid €6,000 to the school. For proof of funds, we plan to show around ₦48 million, maybe a bit more by the time we print the statement. Just want to be sure if this amount is okay.
My dad (my sponsor) had been saving money in my brothers child account.
The agent told us to move it to my dad’s account to avoid complications, so we moved everything in early March.
I plan to submit my visa application in late May or early June, meaning the money will have been in his account for about three months.
Will this raise any red flags?

Get a document for land sale and back it up that you sold a land or house but you statement of account has to be clean. Traveling now very expensive thoug. When I went to dublin 2018 my proof of fund was just 4 million and I did a deed and survey that I sold a land and the money got paid to me for land sold

@MrMarioBlack, any guidance on this?

Hello, I'm planning on moving to Ireland for my Master's programme by September, but I have a challenge with proof of funds, as my sponsor isn't related to me; however, he is a co-founder of a company based in Europe, and he believes that
1. His company can sponsor me and provide SOA,
2. I'm also trying to understand if I can leverage Edubond if the first option isn't feasible.
Do you have any advice on what to do?

PS: I haven't received an admission yet, but I'm trying to secure all the information for a seamless process.

You need to use someone related to you, have him send the money to Someone related to you.

The governments of UK and Ireland are getting it wrong, they are tightening legal immigration routes but they let their boarders open for illegal immigrants to come in everyday from France

Instead of them to allow us that have chosen the legal routes, they're busy romancing and taking care of illegal immigrants, no wahala shaa.

Hi,

I know the UK released a white paper to tackle immigration yesterday, but I didn’t read any thing about the government of Ireland releasing a note to tackle “legal migration”. I’m sorry, but please can you point me to it?

Thanks

You're right on this, it's only the UK for now!

Don't mind them, they are allowing asylum seekers
I blame our government

Government of Ireland instead of tackling the housing issue they are allowing asylum seekers and still give them the little houses available

You get, I'm still in Nigeria but I'm pissed off already, why are they soft on asylum seekers and tough on legal migrants
It's sickening 😔

I agree with you that the government needs to tackle housing issue. But if you follow news recently there is 50% drop in asylum application, an increase in deportation order and refusal of asylum applications. So it’s fair to say the government is doing something about illegal immigration. Still, there is tightening of immigration to Ireland, maybe not just like the UK.

It’s normal to feel so if you have been watching or reading too many feeds about Ireland immigration, most especially if you’re outside Ireland. But I encourage you to get your genuine visa that can guarantee you settlement in the future, and come. It isn’t like how we read or watch it outside Ireland.

Regards.

Please did anyone here apply for Government of Ireland scholarship(GOI-IES)? When should one expect their decision?

Hi everyone👋

My name is Tunde. I’m building something and I’d love to know how you currently make cross border payments (application or school fees) from Nigeria, any tips??

Please I need advice.

I want to move to Ireland for masters with the goal of getting PR after my studies. I discovered that my current profession(Quantity Surveying) and intended course of study (Construction project management) are in the critical skill occupation list, which would increase my chances of getting PR, hence my reason for choosing the country. Please I need clarification on the following

1) The possibility of getting a job as a student. Are there jobs to help offset bills as a student?

2) The possibility of getting a job during/after studies as either a Quantity Surveyor/ Construction Manager/ Project manager (Construction)

3) I want to apply to South East Technological University (Waterford) by next week latest. Is the school recommendable? what is their admission rate, and timeline for processing admission? ( I would like to reach out to anybody studying there)

4) The timeline for Visa approval. My program starts this September.

Thanks in anticipation of your kind response(s).

Nobody has ever used certificate of short term investments for visa applications here or it's not applicable?

Hello,

The course you want to do is on critical skills list yea but in reality it is haaaaaard to get a job in that field as from observation and few connect, it is an Irish/European dominated industry more like law here. So I would advice you chose another program but anything in construction...

Go for it. With your Nigerian job experience you can get a job after your programme in that field. Don’t let anything limit you. You just have to be strategic and apply to as many job opportunities as possible, before the end of your programme.

All the best.
