Pounds. Cause if u go with euros, anyhow u do it you would still end up buying pounds again over there and that’s like buying currency twice.. this is more loss changing to euro and den changing euro to pounds again when u need it there. Like your average street food/grocery won’t sell to you in euros

tnx

Hi all

I’m trying to renew my Uk visa which expires this month because I want to travel at the end of the month

I had to do the ‘keep your passport option’ because I needed my passport with me.

It’s been over three weeks with no contact from tls or the uk embassy To submit my passport i reaches out to them via the paid email enquires portal and was told a decision has been made on my application and further enquires were quite unhelpful.

Who has done this keep my passport route previously? It’s turning out to be more of a complication than any-other thing

Any advice on how to proceed?)

Hi all,

So I have gotten response that they have escalated my case and will revert in 3 working weeks.

Thing is I don’t have three working weeks, if I miss the course I’m going for it will extend my graduation for a year.

I’m considering putting in a fresh application since my passport is with me and pay for expediated services. Maybe the 5 day visa thing.

If I go this route can I pursue a refund much later?

Pls don’t read and ignore
@justwise what do you think?

I am yet to see anyone that got back their passport even within the 5 day priority visa schedule. I mean biometrics, visa decision and email from tls for passport collection within 5 days... i think it’s rare.
If u read this thread, u wud see the complaints. Give two weeks max... and there would be no refund for the keep my passport application u already did because u did keep your passport during this visa application... u didn’t submit it on biometrics day.
Also they said a decision has been made on this application meaning it has been processed... also non refundable...

My name is farzana I belong to Pakistan. I have to ask if this visa has been refused for 10 years or can I get a new application submit again. I have to confirm that if I submit a visa application again, I would like to ask that my fee not be lost. Sir I am sending you my refusal letter because all I have to do is confirm that a 10 year banne is written on this letter or a visa can be applied again Sir I need your guidance.
No one can guide you the best so I want to ask you if I can re-submit a visa application or not re-submit a visa application.

thanks regard

Farzana it seems as if this is a case of 10 years ban for future applications. I’m afraid that’s what I got from the letter you posted.

It says clearly that the marriage certificate you presented was deemed to be a falsified document and so your application was refused on that basis and you have been banned for 10 years, depending on the visa category you apply for next.

If your marriage certificate is a genuine document, you had best challenge this decision.

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by GenoMI: 5:33pm On Mar 09, 2020
Hello house. Please I need some help. I booked a UK Visa appointment on the TLS website and paid 11,700 for the assisted service. Now I want to reschedule the appointment for a later date (the previous date I booked is still about a week away). I logged into the platform but it appears I have to pay another 11,700 . Please can anyone kindly share if they've been through a similar experience? Thanks in advance.

Good evening all, I would appreciate assistance on 2 things:
1. What is the best procedure for a housewife to follow to apply for a UK visa (unemployed with husband sponsoring)
2. Can documents be scanned and uploaded with a phone scanner like camscanner?

Thanks in advance

Hello everyone, My mom applied for a uk standard visa(2years) on the 24th of February, she picked up her passport today and she was granted the visa. My brother is her sponsor, she’ll also be staying in the UK for 3 Months.
I also did self upload for her.

Here’s a list of the document she used:

1) her statement of account( proof of address)
2) Sponsor’s invitation letter
3) Sponsor’s utility bill
4) Sponsor’s mortgage document
5) Sponsor’s bank statement
6) Sponsor’s employment letter/pay slips
7)Sponsor’s British passport data page

I wish everyone who is still waiting for a decision best of luck!

You need to be more specific with your query. You said you want to renew your visa. What visa category are you referring to?

Yes but the last time she applied which was her first time was in 2012, she even stayed 5 months then instead of the two months she put in her application, since then she didn’t try applying.
