Good day everyone. Please, I need some clarification regarding EduBond.

I have an admission with DBS and I have already paid my full tuition. My question is, can I use only the EduBond as proof of funds for my visa application, or do I also need to provide my Nigerian naira bank statement since I am sponsoring myself?

My concern is that there is not much money in my naira account at the moment, so I would like to know if the EduBond can be used on its own as proof of funds for the visa application, considering that my tuition has already been fully paid.

Please, has anyone used EduBond this way or can anyone with experience advise me on this? I would really appreciate your clarification. Thank you.
I’m also a DBS applicant, MBA Cloud Computing and I applied as a self sponsored but my application is still on pending, i submitted September 9th, tuition fully paid and I used EduBond as well, I attached statement of account alongside the EduBond receipt so ensure you submit your statement of account, preferably the account where you made all the payment from and include it in your SOP to demonstrate it and the sources of the funds, the remain balance shouldn’t raise issues so far you already transferred through Edubond, just make sure your SOP explained everything. Good luck .

Looks like I'm the last one standing waiting for a decision. I submitted 14th of May and the documents got to the embassy on the 25th.

I'd often shake my head at people who defend the Nigerian system. If we had good institutions, we won't even be seeking for better education outside our beautiful weather, our home and our peace.

A life outside my ankara shorts and polo into a bipolar weather. Suiting up like a Michelin tire.

I'm in a mess as it stands. When the visa comes out, I'd be racing out of Nigeria because of school deadline which shouldn't be so. I'm sooooo pained

Sincerely appreciate the advice, received with the utmost of thanks. It wasn’t elaborated upon enough, the agent never mentioned I would
require a medical report to explain my study/work gap. Would’ve been easily rectified. Same agent was recommended by the school and claimed to have a 99% acceptance rate.

Appeal can take up to one year, just apply for new one.

But the reasons for the denial were too many.

Before applying for a new one, make sure to address each one thoroughly.

On the gap on education, is it that you didn't explain it, what did they actually mean by that?

From the comments and experiences prospective candidates wishing to go to Ireland are dropping on this thread ,one is forced to conclude that the Irish embassy is just using Nigerians to play ball.

After all this stress and financial commitments, then going to face Ireland's housing crisis and anti-immigrants sentiments, we should be asking ourselves if it is worth it at all.
Re: Ireland Study Visa thread,General Life Experience of Nigerians Living in Ireland by veramani31: 5:50pm On Sep 30
Anyone around 14th May and hasn’t received an update yet?
Re: Ireland Study Visa thread,General Life Experience of Nigerians Living in Ireland by PistolPete: 5:51pm On Sep 30
Has anyone who applied in June or July received a decision yet?
Re: Ireland Study Visa thread,General Life Experience of Nigerians Living in Ireland by Toolsin: 6:41pm On Sep 30
I submitted in June and no decision, even VFS website is not responsible.They know what they are doing, no decision for this week because it's full of rejection. All school already resumed with extension.

It's worth considering, honestly.
But apart from UK and maybe Canada, other countries are equally as challenging.

Just to get Germany appointment could take 2 years..
What is actually worth it?

If you differ, the school will send you updated offer letter, you still retain your admission and the school fees will still be with them.. You will continue waiting for Embassy to make a decision.

If you request for refund, your admission will no longer be valid, then you can go ahead to cancel your visa application.. It will be better you cancel/withdraw your application than allowing them denial you.

Re: Ireland Study Visa thread,General Life Experience of Nigerians Living in Ireland by Trust22(m): 10:41am On Oct 02
You can attach it to the mail you will send to Embassy but that doesn't guarantee they will use it ... They can only use documents they requested from you

Re: Ireland Study Visa thread,General Life Experience of Nigerians Living in Ireland by foxyplantain: 12:11pm On Oct 02
ATP I think he/she should send the new offer letter if they'd rather defer rather than wait for the embassy to request for it because they might not even request..
