Hello house!

I need advice on this.
My pregnant wife went for her TB test at St Nicholas few days ago and the outcome revealed suggestive TB. So she was asked to go for further test (Spectrum lab).

So my question here is: is it advisable/doable that we try the x-ray test out at another UKVI approved centre?

If she do and it come out negative and she is given certificate, do you think there will be any issue/complications with the UK visa.
I mean to ask, is the initial record from St Nicholas already on UKVI system and could this cause any complications?

Thank all as I anticipate your response.

That’s not true. It’s an automated message. I’ve seen someone get approval email 2 days after.

It is
They are basically telling you they will breach and can’t process at the contracted time

But the NSF is the one with the problem … they are extending cuz they still want to look into your documents
Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by Altern8tor: 2:45pm On Jan 28
Did they ever send u NSF?

They're scheduling some for interview recently o and the problem is that the date of the interview is always very far. Like 10th of February. How will the person meet up with school deadlines

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by Tribet: 3:34pm On Jan 28
Nor sla not met
Some people receive empty nsf and mistake it for sla

Sla states not because we require additional documents or information from you

Some people receive an empty NSF message and mistake it for an SLA notice.

SLA not met clearly states: “We may not be able to decide your application within the standard processing time.” It does not say this is because they need additional documents or information from you.

There are two different situations people often confuse:

• SLA not met (non-complex): This simply means they may exceed the standard 15 working days. It is not the applicant’s fault; the delay is on their end.
• Not straightforward (NSF): This means the application requires further checks or information and may take longer to process.

In short, SLA not met ≠ NSF. They mean different things and should not be treated as the same.

""""In regards to your query, the application is currently awaiting a decision. As for the escalation we are unable to raise it before the 12th week from the date of the biometrics attendance due to the application not being straightforward and going through processing delays""""""
