Vatsyayana:
I am a partner in a start up law firm, I have the CAC Certificate for business registration. But I run a personal account for my law practise. Do I need to upload the CAC documents as proof of employment or I should just let it pass since I may not have a corporate account to back up its financials? Is it essential for me to upload such document?
Secondly, can I upload both the Transcript and the Degree Certificate or Either of the Documents?

Responses are appreciated in advance.

I understand the feeling to want to add business document thinking it will increase chances of getting visa approved. But I don’t really think that’s the way with UK student visa, I know it’s not the way, but because I don’t work with them I can’t categorically say it’s not the way. But here is my advice from experience applying and reading from others here:

1. Your employment status is not a thing in student visa. So just let it slide and upload documents that are required.

2. Stick to what is on your CAS. Extras are not really a thing in student visa application.

Best of Luck

They do request it now.

have you gotten collection mail ?

have you gotten collection mail ?

Nope. You?

Which of these rates is right? The higher would mean I have to start 28days counting all over, as the fund will fall below required .

I'm a dependant. Husband already got his Visa.

Don’t be scared. Your own case will be different. You will get a job and you will flourish. Don’t let fear limit you at this point. People are getting jobs even in this period. The people saying this period is kinda tight are talking based on what they know. My sister got a job when the lockdown was at its peak and she is doing well. Why not listen to the positive news and not worry about the negative. Travel first and the same way you hustle in naija, take that same energy and try everything possible to make it in the UK. There is never a perfect time for anything. Only God determines the life of a man, not the situation. Thank you. Please dont be discouraged abeg

I think at this point you are already late anyway .... you can keep calling TB place to see if you can reschedule to an earlier appointment

If not then you start working towards resuming online on 25th and late physically and see what that entails . COVID has brought some benefit in terms of been able to resume later compared to before so check on what currently allowed

Yes, you have to pay for each applicant.

This topic has come up before ..... but as none of us works in UKVI , it best to play it safe when it comes to giving you an advice..... I would say from personal experience I worked with like 3 people and we used that one with lower rate(524 method) and it was absolutely fine. It never occured to us to even look at the other rate because in my opinion that not how you calulate exchange rate

However both conversation are there and can lead to even UKVI using whichever you think is right or wrong way .... so if i were you . If you dont want to start counting again and use that
Then include a cover letter, Just one page saying you submitting this application based on today's exchange rate on oanda, and include a screen shot in that cover letter (of the 524 only ) ...... that way the case officer knows you are using that exchange rate which is a legitimate conversion rate for that date . Let that cover letter be the first pdf of your bank statement

mimilyrics:
No, your visa application should be submitted online after the funds in your account must have met the 28-day mark. Applying before then will result in a refusal because your funds wouldn't have met the maintenance requirements.

Thanks. My account is completed, printed the Statement today (Statement duration is 30 days) and collected reference letter.

Pls how did you pay for IHS and visa? Which payment platform can I use? And exchange rate.

Thanks and I expect to hear from you

Ok,thanks

If I may ask, for me who’s submitting my application tomorrow, must I print out the exchange rate too or I shouldn’t bother. My money is enough for 540 exchange rate and below.
I added extra 500k when the rate was 515/N

Looking forward to hearing from you.
Thanks

And to think she is making no sense at all with her post .

As of yesterday, students doing care job as the only available job for now were stylishly sacked.
The manager said they won't get any shifts for now due to this pandemic because they always come on bus/train so they want only those staff that has car and can drive.

It is like me telling someone to come over when my salary has never reduced by 1p since the first lockdown, even with this new lockdown , Teachers are still working from home and getting full pay. The working from home is even reduced hours and classes but still on full salary scale.

Please who has a plug for a winter coat in Lagos?

I heard it's the opening balance they use not closing. So the #500k you added along the line may not work, unless you are starting the count from they point.

I'M NOT SURE O. Let's wait for experts to comment.

But that of Abuja, they are a bit strict so I can't guarantee you but someone too has testified that they allowed him in ABJ on this platform.
