Hello Gurus in the house. Please does anyone have a rough time frame to hear from the VAC? I got a "UK Visa Application - Application Concluded" last friday the 19th of July. I assumed the passport will be ready for pick up today considering posting might have been done over the weekend. Please can anyone share thier experience about the time lines.

I got a mail from UKVI since on the 15th and am yet to receive any mail from TLS. I collected my kids PP on the 8th of July even though we did our biometric same day(June 11th)

I went to their office today (for enquries) but I couldn't wait because of d long queue for collections. I just av to wait for some few days ...

I am in the same situation. Used the 'keep my passport' option, I got a mail from UKVI on the 16th July that my application is concluded. No pick up mail from TLS yet.

Please do you have an idea of how they manage visa for 'keep my passport' service? Are they still going to mail the passport back to the UK to paste the visa or is it pasted on the passport here in Nigeria?

seyisanya:
I received same email on Wednesday 17th July and still nothing from VAC. I have a peculiar case because I used the "Keep My Passport" service(meaning my passport is still with me) because I need it for a different trip to Schengen zone this Wednesday.

Uchemus:
yea. it was for my Mum, and she got the visa.

Thanks for your response and this is very interesting as it does not let you put zero on there you have to put a number.

You have to explain it and if there's rent receipts you can attach it but you have to make sure that you give detailed information about money paid into your account that is not your salary

Thank you justwise

How can I track my application on TLS website? Thanks

From the same portal you uploaded your bio-metrics. You will navigate to track my application.

Hi, I recently applied for a short term student visa just like you to do a week's course at a top uni in the UK..

I will keep Posted on my application, as I have gotten an email that its been concluded. Currently waiting for pickup.

I advise you pay for the course (if it is refundable), also put an itinerary or timetable from the school of the course activities. also your tenancy agreement and proof of any family ties you have here...

1m will be sufficient depending on you and your budget. This budget should be included..

and also how it relates to your current salary.

The school sent am email saying they would send an invoice for school fees payment by August ending and that we are not to pay tuition fee till after visa is out. But I do have a receipt of payments done for registration to the institution.

The tuition is approximately 440k and I would be staying with my uncle for the 3weeks in UK so I won't be paying for accommodation. Do you think the 1m is ok?

I am considering getting a letter from a contribution or smtin to backup the 1.5m is that fine?

Do I need to still add my aunt as a second sponsor on my application?

Thanks.
Looking forward to reading from you soonest!

Hello everyone, I got an email 'Uk visa application-Application concluded. Your UK visa application has been concluded' on Thursday the 19th of July . I observed that it is different from the normal 'Application dispatched' emails. For those who were successfully issued with visas, were the emails that you received 'Application concluded or Application dispatched', so I can prepare my mind.

pls which date did u do ur biometriqs and which location

Hello guys,

I currently got my visa for a visit on the 17th of August to 27th August. Would there be a problem during renewal if I decided to do the visit later in the year?

Thanks for the reply.

That shouldn't be a problem as long as you don't stay too long as to avoid stories that touch.

All the best. Please keep us posted on the outcome. Hopefully it will be success!!!

Hello everyone,

My uncle and I applied together(joint application) for a visiting visa on July 10th using my brother's convocation invitation letter.

We used fast track and we were told it would be ready in 5 to 7 days.

My uncle got an email for pickup last week Friday(July 19th) and he got his visa.

However, my case is different, as I'm still yet to receive any email from them, it's at "Application received by DMC" stage.
It's 9 working days and I'm still yet to hear from them... Please hope it doesn't indicate there might be a problem or sort, considering I applied with my uncle, we even did biometrics same time, and he has gotten his own visa by now.

arro:
My friend was denied based on nine of his account, and the other one was not mention in the refusal, the account mentioned has just 4000 naira in it while the other side account has more than a million naira, but he choose to use both since the 4000 own is his salary account while the other side account is for side hustle and co.
He got and invitation from his niece, who is working and has her own utility bills sent to him with bank details and co, the vo said his no convinced my friend will come back, this is a guy with army equivalent rank of brigadier general.
