Hi All, please can you travel without BRP Letter?

Co-ask

frankob:
It doesn’t

You mean flying through turkey doesn't require transit visa?

So if I choose Turkish Airlines I'd be safe?

Madeforher:
I just got my BRP letter this afternoon
So by tomorrow or next you should get yours

Did you get it from your Uni or UKVI?

PNomsule:
Leicester is as useless as the s in her name

Get your banter right man. It's pronounced LES-TER so the letter s definitely sounds there...

Eusp:

Who told you it was actually made by Nigerians?

Help me ask am

Princebest:
I watched the video somewhere yesterday and I just smiled.

Nigerians are talented, no doubt but I just wonder why out talent is mostly used dubiously.

I pray we soon have a government that helps us channel our abilities to good and positive uses only, by creating conducive and rewarding atmosphere for talent to thrive.

Bruv, this isn't Nigerian made and even if it was, isn't a Nigerian concept. The gadget is prolly older than this century sef so chill

Hello

It really depends there's no timeline for NSF and honestly you shouldn't be waiting for one


Is there a reason you are expecting NSF?

Cheers

Yea, remember I failed to upload my TB test

Hello folks, want to ask?

What's the earliest or latest one can receive NSF mail within the 15 days?

Mtcheew

duchess90:
Hello

Yes it could be a possible question at POE and ideally shouldn't be a problem

Cheers

How then do we prove it ma'am, the printed statement?

Visa Alert!!!

Long Post Warning!!!!!

There is nothing God cannot do. Glory to His name!

Summary:
Family of 3. Abuja TLS

MA Applicant
a. School Application 15th Feb
b. Unconditional Offer 15th Mar
c. Pre-CAS interview 14th Jun
d. CAS Alert 15th June
e. Visa application 8th Jul
f. Biometric 19th Jul
g. Decision Made 7th Aug
h. Movement to VAC 9th Aug
i. Collection Mail for MA 9th Aug

Dependents (2)
a. Visa application 8th Jul
b. Biometric 19th Jul
c. Decision made for dependents 10th Aug
d. Movement to VAC 12th Aug
e. Collection mail 12th Aug

Tension-filled waiting period. 2 weeks after submitting biometrics MA received NSF mail to provide TB test certificate. The said certificate was the 1st document uploaded during the application (a bit concerned when it came). The immediate reply was done and an escalation mail was done 5th of August. The rest as they say is history.

Documents submitted:
a. TBT Test certificate
b. Passport Bio page
c. CV + Employment/promotion letters & reference letters (to show 14-year study gap)
d. Studies evidence
e. Marriage cert + family photos + family change of name affidavit
f. POF statement + LOE (to show the reason for 1 lump sum payment received and disbursed for an unrelated payment)

I have been a silent reader but I can say categorically that this thread and all the participants were the reason we did it ourselves against using paid agents. The confidence espoused was motivating, hence our decision to go alone, even after agreeing with an agent.
Immeasurable thanks to @justwise, @Duchess90 and so many others that made it look possible and kept the stress levels down with words of encouragement. The Lord replenish your effort.

See you there!!

Hello, please I mailed you.

VMuna:
The TB certificate is mandatory for Nigerians even for infants and in situations where it isn't listed among the required docs.

I was using one eye to work in the office and using the other eye to fill visa applications for my 2 kids and myself.

At the end of the day, I forgot to include my son's TB cert.

I was later graciously contacted by the UK DMC to forward a soft copy of the TB certificate, which I did immediately.

His visa came out by the following week.

You can do an email to:
worksponxxxxxxxxxxx@xxxxx.gov.uk

Subject should contain your VAF Number, GWF and names.

Dear UK DMC,

Regarding Visa Application: GWFxxxxxxxxxx
For: Adamu Yetundu Chinedu

Please find attached a copy of my TB MHA Certificate which was omitted in error during my application.

My sincere apologies for the oversight.

Thank you for your kind consideration and understanding.

Warm regards.v




P.S. Send me a DM so I can give you the full email address. I masked it to forestall spamming of their mailbox.

Regards.

I already emailed you with sound******@gmail.com

Thank you.

hadura29:
Yea, they do, at I random I guess.

Omo, imagine getting all the way there only to be turned back...

duchess90:
Hello

No

Your POF is for your studies

That is deception and if caught at POE can be asked to go back

Cheers

You mean they run bank balance checks at POE?

Pls, does anyone have info on getting international Driver's Licence in Nigeria?

Lilkini:
you've got data right?? make use of it, browse!!!
Timo werner is coming to chelsea

Lol, coming back here after all this while to say good riddance.

Nonsense signing

LagosismyHome:
TB is mandatory ... find that paid mail and use it to send the TB ASAP

How do you mean pls?

Do you mean I should send a paid mail?

So y'all I went back to Vi tdae and they didn't even acknowledge the mail at all,

My best bet is to go pray I receive NSF mail.

So hopeful

And for those who have application time ending with :15, they turned them back that :15 is not for student or work visa so they should go reschedule, or maybe try walk-in...

So if you have such date now, I would advise you try rescheduling

And also guys, please pray for me ooo

Collins4u1:
Apart from my passport, what else do I need to take to my visa appointment at TLS?

offwego:
The best case scenario is that you will get the NSF. However, If there is an opportunity to be explored where the TLS can still link this to your submission because you had subscribed to their assisted service and at zero cost, by all means. it will take nothing from you.

if not, fingers crossed for the best case scenario.

Thank you.

Temayo:
Thanks to everyone. I landed in London this morning.

Congratulations...

It will go round ijn.

duchess90:
Hello


You will get an NSF requesting for it

Upload it when you do

Cheers

Thanks for earlier.

I reached out to them yesterday when they sent a questionnaire for me to fill and I received a reply today saying that since it was assisted, I can still go back there and ask that they upload the document.

But on my tracker, it's already been recieved by the DMC, do you feel I should still go or wait hopefully for the NSF

I already replied the mail but they haven't gotten back to me.

@offwego , samcathe , kuvalis , ignis , @dduchess90

offwego:
No you are not ruined and definitely not doomed!

First Level checks conducted at the decision center should hopefully flag this and then the request for you to send this follows. fingers crossed on both hands.

As much as this somehow skipped you, I don't think it should have also skipped the staff that attended to you at the TLS center. Especially because you paid for an assisted service. where is the value then in the assisted service?

I am not sure the ask is that the frontline officers there be immigration experts but the barest minimum should be that they have their own checklist where they ensure that mandatory documents such as Bank Statements and TB Test results should be included in every student visa submission.

on a lighter mode your vocabulary "ruined" and "doomed" suggests that you may like period dramas maybe you could watch some of them to take your mind of it while trusting for the best possible outcome on your application.

Once again fingers crossed on both hands!

Thanks.

Really hoping I receive the mail...

I don't think anyone has ever wished for NSF as much as I'm wishing rn

Thanks for your response ma'am.

Ace0074:
Okay. I choose self service and got 25th of August. But I'm unable to pay the 55pounds ukvi service charge. Please do you know if its possible I pay at the VI center on the appointment day maybe with my naira card or cash or something.

I can't say, but since it's pounds and not naira, I don't think it's possible...

vincentjk:
How much were you charged for the assisted service?

₦11,700 with VAT.

Ace0074:
Please did you do walkin or booked earlier. I want to know if walkin is possible at VI TLS. I am a single applicant

Got a date. But I think they do walk in.

ignis:
Pray to get an NSF...

Alright, thanks.
