SOAS UNIVERSITY OF LONDON
It was a fully funded university scholarship.
So I didn't have to show proof of funds. I just provided the other necessary documents.
Hello Pipelolaluwa. Congratulations! I recently got into a fully funded program too but have not applied for a visa. I have heard some confusing guidance on what I'm supposed to do with POF (because I thought I had to present none) during my visa application. Would you be available for a chat? I've sent a DM.

Pipeloluwa:
Thank you. I have been able to do it already.
However, who knows a a number I can reach VFS on. On the day of my biometrics, they insisted I used courier. I eventually paid for it. Since Tuesday I haven't heard anything from them.
Has anyone else faced this issue, and how did you go about resolving it.
Hi. Please, how were you able to access your e-VISA without having first collected your passport? I am in the process but it requires a step that will need me to have my physical passport document.

Please let’s really fact-check the information we share, I saw a message here that care sponsorship for students is totally cancelled, only for Grok(AI) to explain better.

Hi! So this is my situation. My wife got her VISA to the UK for September intake. I’d like to apply as her dependant. We got married in 2023. But I have barely lived in Nigeria since 2023. Just a couple of months each year. So I’d like to know if it’s a problem? When asked if we’ve lived together since the last two years what should be the answer? She lives in the apartment I rented and we live together every time I come. Is there going to be an issue? I should also note that. My travel history is quite extensive. I travel for months at a time to different countries.
If her visa permits dependant, you should be able to apply successfully to join her.
All you need is documents and pictures to back up the marriage.

Please avoid misleading people.
Only professionals in subjects listed on the UK shortage occupation list ; Modern Foreign Languages (French, Spanish, Mandarin), Physics, and Mathematics have better prospects of securing a sponsorship visa.
If your background is in Business Education, Computer Education, or Biology Education, even with QTS, it may be difficult to obtain visa sponsorship.
Furthermore, subjects on the PGCE shortage list are eligible for up to £25,000 in bursary scholarships under the UK’s Train to Teach program
So its difficult to secure work with International business and management msc ?

I had full funding offer (confirmed in my CAS) so I did not have to upload POF. I just optionally uploaded my offer letter.

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by mamaTuru: 5:17pm On Aug 04, 2025
Hello house.
Asking for my husband please
Biometrics- 17th July 2025
Empty Nsf- today 4th August 2025
School resumption date- 7th September 2025 that is Nothingham Trent University, Program is PGCE in physics

I’m really worried because his school’s resumption date is fast approaching and we were really looking forward to a decision mail in our 15 w. days wait but now that we have gotten an NSF
a) how long are we to wait again? If you have gotten a decision after an empty nsf how long did you wait?
b) should we contact the school that their might be a delay?
c) When should we do a paid call/mail
d) He’s got a 9 year study gap; he graduated from Futo in 2016, started masters in 2018, dropped out in 2020 due to strike, Covid and financial hurdles, then he became self employed and started driving a cab for business, sold fairly used cars and home lesson.
If he’s to get another nsf asking for additional documents to explain study gap(they haven’t asked him yet I’m just preparing ahead, in case they do ask him), how do we explain this kind of study gap?
from the other posters here I read that he’ll need his
NYSC cert - we have it
reference letter and employment letter - this kind of jobs he’s done how can he go about the reference and employment letter since he was self employed.
Pay slips- he doesn’t have pay slips because of the nature of his jobs ; cab driving, car sales and home lessons)
What of the masters he did during his study gap? Is it ok to mention that? I’m not sure. I hope we won’t be shooting ourselves in the foot by mentioning it since he didn’t complete the masters.
He is fully funded by the England’s department for education for PGCE in physics(lucky him). But na this visa junction won spoil show now( I really hope not)
Please I need y’all suggestions on this matter. Oh,
NB; his colleague that he was on this journey with- Same school, same conditions, same department for education funding same biometrics venue who did his biometrics on 16th July has gotten success mail on 21st July(I’m happy for him) But Why is my hubby’s own now delaying like this?

I’m looking forward to your responses. Thank you 🙏
