Hello Elders,

Cc: Justwise, scobyy2007

Good afternoon.
Pls share your thoughts,

28th August : Hubby's admission was confirmed after series of interviews.

Tuition deposit confirmed and reflected on his student portal this morning.

School resumes: 7th Oct

Programme: PhD

Yet to receive CAS/questionnaire, we heard it may likely take couple of days/weeks to a month.

Should we be worried with the timing, because it very likely we'll be in Nigeria when classes resume 7th of Oct.

Will the delay affect our Visa application in any way?

PhD admission is yearly, so if he defers nah till October 2022 which is farrrrr.

We've been reading through the threads and beginning to panic.

There's an option to join classes online, he's considering that and then join physical classes later in October when Visa runs is finalised.

Uni: University of Essex

Please advise �

Zimzee:
My husband wants to apply with our children as I have already gotten my Visa. The funds for there POF is already counting in his account, so regarding the financial permission letter,ie consent for the children to use the fund, is it my hubby that is going to write it since the fund is in his account?

CrystalPeace:
Please, I'm really confused now and I need advice on what to do next

I had Biometrics on 12th August, Priority service at VI

Got a non straightforward mail on 17th August

And nothing since then. No calls.. No mail

Called UKVI and sent paid mails but I'm being told a decision hasn't been made yet

Is there anyone facing this also?

Angellaw:
VISA ALERT! Long post o

Good morning everyone, been quite busy to pen this down.

Biometrics- july 8(standard) for me and 2 dependants
1st not straightforward mail- july 20th for myself
1st not straightforward mail- july 26th- dependants
2nd not straightforward for 3 of us- August 3rd
3rd not straightforward for myself- August 4th

Then i got a call from the Home office without notification asking if i can go on with an interview, i said yes but call dropped. I was sent a mail 35mins later scheduling me for 9th of August, 2pm. 9th came they didn’t call. Around 3:52, i saw uk missed call on my ALTERNATIVE LINE wch I tried to call back but kept bouncing back.

I sent series of paid mails and called the call centre but all responses were, you will be contacted.

Then i got another call on Friday asking if i am ok to go on with the interview, another yes and this lasted for 1hr 34mins because i gave them full/plenty points on questions asked.

By 18th of August i called and told its still awaiting a decision. I told the lady that its past 15 working days i did biometrics and i want it escalated, i told the person the type of visa i did.

20th, I received a mail from pretoria saying i was under mandatory checks and its still processing.

24th of August my dependants collection mail came wch I collected the following day.
25th, past 5pm mine entered wch I collected on friday.

I declared 4 uk visits refusal, 1 uk visits for myself
3 uk visits refusal for my dependants also.

It took them 32working days before returning my passport with visa. I was really worried, i fasted alot, praised alot(all with a sincere heart o) still prayed to God to give me a strong heart if it will be a refusal but I GIVE HIM ALL THE GLORY COS IT ENDED IN PRAISE.

I left Naija through Qatar Airways on Sunday 29th,(ticket was booked on Thursday after I collected my dependants visa) and on getting to uk border, the C.O asked, who are these beside you, i told him my daughters(1 was almost my height), asked name of my sch,course, duration, and if i have visited before and if i had any immigration problem in the past, I answered all. i was told to step asidewith my dependants for more investigation to be made. I was scared but I kept my calmness, gave my daughter my phone to send msg to her father(he stays in the UK), my sister and my pastor should incase anything comes up. I didn’t press my phone at all. And within 30mins i was released to go.

ONLY GOD’S MERCY!!!

Our visa processes differs, if there is any mistake you might have made and no how to correct it, speak to God, where one can’t reach, HIS MERCY AND FAVOUR will get there.

God will see everyone through. Aamen.

Gunit87:
Good Morning all,
I plan to apply with 2 different bank statement of account. Am I required to scan the two bank statement in one single file or I should scan separately to upload in my application?
thanks

solalal36:
Hello, I went to the bank to print my bank statement and only the first and the last pages were stamped. Is this how it's meant to be or all the pages are meant to be stamped?

cc justwise scobyy2007 femtowo and everyone familiar with this

Please is it safe to book Qatar airline?

mercauly:
Hello everyone.
Justwise and other wonderful gurus in the forum. Please I need your guidance on my dependant visa application.
I have applied for visa without my dependant and i have gotten a collection mail though waiting for DHL delivery before i can know their decision. I hope its approved.

My question now is:

Can I print out another 28 days statement of my account as POF for my dependant to apply or i must transfer the fund into her account and now count 28 days before she can apply?
Thank you for always.

justwise:
What is the difference?

Zimzee:
Congratulations.
Please what documents did you use to support your children application?

justwise:
@All

I have noticed recently that a lot of people are advertising or seeking for ''proof of fund'' business here and some people here are willing to help.

So this is the deal..from now on i will not only ban those advertising it, i will also ban those seeking for one and those willing to help

If you got no money to study in the UK get a proper legal loan from a registered company or bank, don't come here to seek or advertise any illegal practices.

Thank you

dabrat:
Go to their office in ikeja to book a date with proof that shows the need for you to to travel urgently.
They will give you a favorable date. However if you know how to beg, make the payment and go with the necessary documents (very early like 7am) you might be lucky to do the test same day. Cheers!
