I have funds on my Paga account, can it be used towards payment? Instead of using card??
Yes. You’d select just “Paga” instead of “Paga verve”.

Please, to pay with Paga verve, do you need Verve card? Or you can pay with mastercard?


I don’t think it matters. Mine was master card and still went thru. I think it’s just general Nigerian card, the issue is if you card has the limit of 500k. Then that’s the thing as you will need two cards to complete ihs and visa fee.

Yeah someone did that some months back. Can’t remember who, then I just come to read people’s experience and challenges. So I am sure you can. But then the payment Chanel will be “Paga” n not “Paga verve”

1. Yes.
2. You have to demonstrate that your hubby can't be with you in the UK during your course plus show that adequate arrangements are in place for the kids in the UK. This is usually a dicey one since both parents are required to be in the UK with the kids except in extenuating circumstances.
3. You all can apply at the same time for the student/dependant visas. It's based on your preferences.
4. Depends. Some schools require the TB test before issuing CAS while some don't. Whichever way the pendulum swings, TB test are valid for 6 months except UKVI extends the validity due to Covid-19 lockdown.

@mimilyrics,thanks.
1. Noted. With these,does that mean I should state, self-funding in my forms?
2. Ok,hubby is too busy,he is funding everybody,sweet family,no issues atall,he has travelled alot and still prefer his visiting visa.please advise if that won't hurt my chances
3. Even with his own choice,can we all apply at the same time?
3. Ok,I will receive CAS before going for TB test?
4 & 5. Noted.many thanks.

During the last lockdown, flights still came into the UK and BoJo's announcement today didn't touch on flights so it should hopefully be the same except Nigeria closes its airspace.
Also schools are open so I don't see students being turned back at UK airports, tourists, maybe but not students.

You should be able to use it since it's a standard savings account service and it's provided by a CBN-licenced bank. It's similar to Monzo, Starling et al whose bank statements are acceptable by UKVI.
Just ensure that the statements are signed and dated in line with UKVI requirements.

For avoidance of doubts, you can check with WEMA and also check the student visa guidance on acceptable bank statements.

Please I need help here:

Under this section of my CAS, “Evidence used to obtain offer”

My school wrote “Bachelor of Science in Information and Communication Technology” which is my first degree.

Does this mean I only need to upload my first degree certificate? Since the question on visa application is Like “the document used in obtain CAS”. With suggestion of degree or transcript.

Abeg help me. Tho when applying I used so many documents (degree, transcript, waec, etc)

Hello, Please for those who have used Paga, can one also pay for priority visa using Paga? In addition to paying for visa fee and IHS?

Secondly for those of us that started online studies in Sept 2020 and joining on campus in Jan 2021, will our IHS be prorated? I tried filling on UKVI website with Sept 2020 as start date and it still gave me 705 pounds. That na ojoro o.

Re: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 4 by moetariq: 10:46pm On Oct 31, 2020
It should be open (UKVI offices). Schools. Colleges & Universities will still be open. Its not a total lockdown like the one in April. UK needs your upgraded IHS fees. Lol

Hello guys,

I like to know if the IHS fee for a course of 1 year and 4 months will be calculated as 2 years. Tried to input details in the IHS calculator. It calculated £940. Is this some sort of error?

@mimilyrics, @Lagosismyhome. Kindly respond to this.☝️☝️☝️☝️. Thanks

Hi guys, hope you guys didn't miss me much grin well, to prospective UK students, be careful with ur choice of course, not all that glitters is gold here oh, don't go with just whats written on school page about a course, if possible connect with a present student and no if the course would meet ur expectations, I'm writing this because I'm having regrets already, doing msc environmental management and I'm already wishing I did more active/practical course. Its not entirely a bad course, just that I imagined something different in my head, just be careful, thats my advice, u guys stay safe, cheers!
Hello dear, please shed more light on why you say this. I got admission for MSC Environmental management at Teeside. Why do you say you regret taking the course please?

Hello everyone, I will like to get your thoughts on this. So I studied Geology in my first degree, I have worked in an oil servicing company for some years as a completions Engineer ( Petroleum Engr. related). Now I want to do my Masters in the UK. I actually wanted to go for Petroleum Engenineering but we know oil and gas industry is not booming at the moment and that could limit me in terms of job. I have actually applied to some schools for Civil and Environmental Engineering, and also Environmental Management for Teeside. I have gotten unconditional offer from Teeside for now. Still waiting on the others. My question is, what would you advise I actually go for in terms of versatility for job. Please I will appreciate your sincere advise on this environmental studies. Also I am open to other choice of study that is really on demand practically.

I'm not a petroleum engineer and this is just an aside, but I hear that decommissioning is in demand now in your industry and an environmental course with a focus in that area could sell you better.

Good morning people, happy new month. Incredible thread I must say. Few details about me:
1. I'm applying to study MSc management and finance at Birmingham city university
2. I have my TB test certificate, paid tuition deposit, UO in the bag, account statement would mature in another 14 days exactly. I'll apply for CAS immediately
My question and my worry: I got the funds from a finance house and they'll take the funds as soon as our contract expires. My fear is does it affect me in anyway if go for biometrics and the funds isn't in my account.
However I plan to submit immediately I have CAS.

The first lockdown the UK didnt close the airport and the speech Boris said schools including universities wont be closed so I think you should keep your dates.... except if there a national announcement that airport will be closed
