I applied June 7th. Still waiting oh. I emailed them and they sent me a vague reeponse about how they attend to visas as they come In to ensure fairness and the average is 6 weeks. Could be less and more and I should be patient. They close 1pm at the embassy so if you try to call them do so before 1pm.

I made one copy and I was asked at VFS Abuja to make TWO extra copies. Was running like a mad woman looking for where to make extra copies cos they were about to close. My experience though!

Did you make photocopy of only Bio-data page of International Passport or all the pages?

Please advice. I know how they make people make unnecessary number of photocopies of documents at VFS only to find out eventually that you were misled by them at point of submission.

Thanks

I initially photocopied only the data page of my passport, the vfs lady ask me to photocopy ALL THE pages in three copies (I had two passports). Never in my life have I paid up to 5k only to make copies!

Pks what of other documents. Do you need everything in 3copies?

Chinlov:

The only thing I didn't make in three copies at VFS Abuja was bank statements.

Good day everyone. I have enough fund to cover my tuition fee but not so buoyant for the living expenses.

I want an honest opinion. Should I shelve my plans to travel Ireland for MSc?. My school is Griffith.

My humble advise is that you keep the dream alive. Since you have the fund to cover tuition fees, that's a good headstart in the right direction. So get a family relative or trusted friend with a good amount of money in his or her bank account to stand as your sponsor, transfer the funds you have as tuition to your sponsor account and have them pay for the tuition on your behalf. Others are sundry expenses. If you can raise such amount in this country with her attendant hardship, I sure bet you can make headway in Ireland. Please keep the dream alive and don't give up. Nigeria is a mess and so anything to evacuate this dungeon of a country is most welcomed. Besides, money doesn't stay for too long with someone so you don't end up spending the tuition fees which you have already. Thanks

Please those who submitted in Lagos vfs how many photocopies did you make? And please which are the original document to be submitted.

Thanks for your advice. I really do appreciate. I would however want to have an idea of minimum amount I must set aside to survive pending the time I secure a job. Because I wouldn't like to get to Ireland and become stranded.

Well, I can't give a precise figure on that, else I will be misleading. My advice is that you go online and do some research on cost of living as student in Ireland. That way, you can be able to do comparison and reach a decisive decision. However, some folks here can help with that too. I too I am a prospective student as well.

Please do you need to submit your academic credentials as well for study visa purpose? Or the school admission letter and perhaps English test result will suffice.

If you have children who are not accompanying you, do you need to include their birth certificates?

Thanks

One of the supporting documents is

"Evidence that you have the academic ability to follow your chosen course
You must provide evidence that you have the ability to follow your chosen course e.g. exam results, qualifications."

From the above, you would need to submit your academic credentials, School certificates, transcripts etc.

Also, see link below for other supporting documents

I wouldn't be able to give information on children not accompanying you.

Someone who applied a week + after me in June just got their visa today and mine isn't ready? ����

Good day all..must i write English Language proficiency test before gaining admission into Ireland ?

Asapant:

For gaining admission, no unless the school specifically asks for it.
For visa application, it's compulsory.

Thanks boss.. 1 more. Is it difficult i get job while schooling ?

Please in a situation were one scores below the required point in the enough language test, what happens? Will the embassy use that as a prerequisite to deny one's visa application?

If you score below school required points and you get admission no wahala but if you fall short of embassy requirement don't even think of submitting like that rather tm retake the test. I will advice anyone to do PTE academy as the required embassy score is 30 marks

The cut off is more than that 30 oh,my friend learned the hard way. Aim for 60/69, there is also specific number of scores you are not meant to get below for each section of the test. I hear PTE is easier than IELTS so you should be fine.

Thanks bro. I really appreciate. It's been a while since I read last but this time I have returned back to the jerking like I used too back then in the university. Seriously it's not easy combining hustling and reading.

I'm a girl. To be honest I didn't even buy study materials. I just told myself no be English I dey speak everyday? I was still afraid sha especially with the writing section.
I booked the test and just showed up. I had 82 overalll which is quite high And high scores in the individual section though while writing it, i thought I made many mistakes especially in the speaking section because of tension.
Infact I assumed I would fail till I saw my result 24 hours after writing. My score shocked me sef. If it's PTE, just try to work within the time. Double check your spellings.
My PTE score showed that I couldn't spell which was stupid because I can spell obviously, and spell checking was the one thing i made sure I did last before moving to the next item. Someone said maybe i was mixing American and British spelling for them that's why. So don't give them room to say you made a mistake. Use American or British spelling all through. Don't mix. The keyboard has no autocorrect and it won't show you didn't spell something correctly. Use punctuation marks too. Little things like commas at the right places count. Make sure your mic is placed correctly. I googled to see images of how a mic could be properly positioned near my mouth. One area I struggled with was describing images. I suck at that so practice describing images and information reflected in graphs, pie chart etc. The time runs fast, be conscious of that. Goodluck.

Hi guys.. So I'm about to submit my irish visa application documents at the vfs office. I have been denied Canada study visa twice. Last year and this year. The agent I'm using now said I should only include the recent visa refusal letter and not both of them as it will make my application look bad. I am very skeptical. Is there anyone who has gone through two visa refusals and just put one letter and still got his/her application refused. I don't want to be denied because of something that clumsy.
