Thanks justwise, i will apply for Visa latest by May.

Also, I have 2 visit visa refusals (UK) and my school stated you may not get your CAS if you have been refused before . After when I've made a payment of £2,000.. I'm kinda confused

But I have a friend that got her CAS after the deposit of £2,000 (not same school o) ... Just deposit ... They didn't ask for statement of account or TB certificate

Why is my school like that? They are even telling me to get prepared for interview

University of Bradford o

I declared my Canada study permit refusal, got my CAS, visa, and almost done with 1st semester now.
Asking for the documents you want to use for your application will enable UoB visasupport team to profile you accordingly and prepare you for the visa interview.

VISA! VISA!! VISA!!! VISA!!!!

Biometrics:
Main Applicant - December 16, 2020
Dependent (3) - December 21, 2020
Visa application - Standard.

After 18 working days of biometrics without any update, I sent a mail to UK VI and got a response that my case has been escalated.

On January 21, 2021 (23 working days after biometrics), I got a non-straightforward mail.

Collection/Decision mail - January 29, 2021 (29 working days after biometrics).

Today February 1, 2021 passports collected and all applications approved.

My conclusion and take away from Nairaland.
Standard application is a long waiting game that requires serious patience. Don't box yourself into any timeframe that may give you high BP. If you do everything right and provide the required genuine documents, application will be granted.

The waiting period was really frustrating.

I return all glory to God for His faithfulness over me and my family.

For those still waiting and prospective applicant, God will grant you, your heart desire.

Visa alert!!!

Application submission December 4 (Standard)
Biometrics TLS Abuja December 10

The waiting was not funny after 17 working days

Non straightforward email January 12
No decision mail
Collection mail January 19
Pick up January 19.

1 Canadian study permit refusal - declared

Thanks to everyone that has been contributing to helping on this forum.

Many thanks to God �

I can resonate with your plight (my biometric was on 10th)

Your application is actually 20th working day as at today because of the holidays.

Please just remain calm. It will result in praise. We will share our testimonies soon.

Please gurus in the house help a sister out.I had my biometrics at the ikeja tls 14th of december and exactly 16working days later i got a not straight forward email which was last week friday.till now i have not heard anything again and it’s exactly a month today.Others that did their biometrics after then are collecting visa everyday and i am just confused!please is anyone in this situation too?Status is ‘Application received by DMC’ all this while

It is for each of the dependants.
A spouse and 3 children = 4 dependants = 4*(845or680)*9 months.

honeycandy:
FOR DEPENDANTS
a. Spouses only: Marriage certificate.

b. Spouses and Children: Maintenance evidence: Bank statement showing £845 monthly * 9 months for within London or £680 monthly * 9 months for outside London. This must be in the account for at least 28 days; the end of the 28 days must not be older than 31 days before your application.


Hello all. As per the above, is the £845/680 per dependent or it doesn’t matter? Thank you

Below is the information I found from TLS site,

" ...
However, every application is unique, and if your application is not straightforward, it may not be possible to meet this timescale. If this is the case, your application will still be put at the front of the queue at every stage of the decision-making process, and UKVI will aim to process your application within global customer service standards. Your application may not be straightforward if you have:

• been refused a visa for the UK, and/or;
• been refused leave to enter the UK, and/or;
• been deported, removed, or otherwise required to leave the UK, and/or;
• overstayed a period of leave in the UK, and/or;
• had leave to remain in the UK curtailed by the Home Office, and/or;
• been refused leave to remain in the UK by the Home Office, and/or;
• been refused a visa for Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the United States of America, or the Schengen countries, and/or;
• you have been interviewed, detained, or prosecuted by the police for any offence in the UK or elsewhere, and/or;
• you have an unspent criminal conviction in any country, and/or;
• you have committed a criminal offence in any country.

Hello gurus in the house,
Please, what do you guys have to say about this?
After so much suspense, this is what I got this morning.
Hmmmm!!!

Thanks in advance for your prompt response

Yes you can

iPLEXUS:

Can one start the application while the statement of account has not matured but wait for submission after the 28 days maturity period?

Please run quickly to TLS on Monday to complain.

yibore1:
Good day,

I track my passport and it state " travel document returned to the owner" but am yet to receive my passport. Pls what do u advise I do?

Please I am interested

Pegzzyg:
Hi, if you're Male & need a date for 21st of Dec & you're sure TB Test is delaying your process, quote me now....

Ensure you go with:
A. For Self Service,
1. Print out of biometric booking confirmation (from TLS)
2. Document checklist
3. Any document you missed out during upload (You'll pay 11,750 plus vat) - if applicable

B. Assisted service
1. All document you wish to upload and your debit card to pay 11,750 plus vat

Funny enough Abuja TLS did not ask for any original document except Int'l Passport (please go with everything because others' experiences may be different from mine).

jflex:
Apart from documents in CAS, TB certificate and intl Passport , what else does TLS require for biometrics appointment?
?

Yes Paga Verve. Continue.

Grace321:
Please I can’t find Paga but Paga verve. How do I proceed?

Your school agent seems to have their own rules that are different from the UK visa website. See the link below

fakmurphy:
Hello, gurus please help me, I just received this note from the school agent. He said there is a new rule for tier4 bank statement, that it must carry the name and contact details of the customer service officer who issued the statement. I am worried about it because what my bank gave me has a stamp and the name of the officer who signed it but not his contact details. See attached file number 8

kcmontez:
Lucky you

I have been battling with PAGA to upgrade my account to level 3 since 2 days now no luck! Am extremely frustrated with the process. I ve called, tweeted, dm'd and sent mails yet no positive response. How long does it take to verify my address please?

Please does anyone have any advice that will work better please?

It seems Paga is overwhelmed

I have similar issue for over a week and counting till now but this is how I navigated through.

Select Paga as method of payment on the payment page.
It will direct you to paga portal where you'll select card payment and enter your card details.

That's all.

Atm card used - Stanbic IBTC (there's a limit so I could only pay for IHS on day one and visa payment on the second day). I read on this platform that transaction limit varies depending on your bañk.

I wish you the best.

OrangeHokage:
it's well, thanks.

Muol11:
Hi, please what is the best way/how do you pay for visa fee and health surcharge since there's a limit on using our naira cards?

Paga payment is acceptable
