Please some should tell me about University of Roehampton
How good is the school? ..any one studying there .is the environment good for international student that would like to work and earn money??

Good school but your biggest headache will be accommodation if the Uni has not provided with with one. Very pricey area to rent and even worse if you've got a family. The bright side is you might have a lot of online classes so you can easily find cheaper accommodation in places with a short commute.

Does anyone have idea on Bangor university in wales, what are the living conditions and how easy is it to get jobs there

Bangor is a nice area and the university is quite good. The sch's accommodation is tiny though (bear in mind). There aren't so many jobs in Bangor itself but you are sure to find one with determination in neighbouring communities which are easily accessible by train.

Hi, so sorry to hear about your sister's visa refusal.
Almost as a general rule of thumb, offering to sponsor the entire trip proffers significant advantage for the applicant as it reduces the burden to demonstrate affordability for the trip. Secondly, your financial documents and position is more trackable, believable and trustworthy for the caseworker. That said, the applicant would not need to show bogus sums in his/her account or give so much explanation whilst not ignoring demonstrating home ties.
Just like you have done for your brother successfully, i have had same successful results for over the last 8 years even for both unrelated folks/ old friends e.t.c. just by stating in the invitation letter that "i would be covering all travel expenses for the trip and any other expenses that may be incurred whilst in UK and until his/her departure from the UK".

In a nutshell, your question "Would it be easier if I offer to sponsor her trip 100% while she only declares her employment"?. On a balance of probability it's a YES.


Mamasibs:
Hello,

I would appreciate some help with my sister’s visa. She just received her third refusal(attached). We are quite confused about what happened with her CAc registration and are checking to see if she was scammed.

I wanted her to attend my baby’s christening which is unlikely to happen. I was going to suggest waiting until next summer the applying again.

Would it be easier if I offer to sponsor her trip 100% while she only declares her employment? I did this for my brother (they were meant to be travelling together) and he was successful.

Please help. I spent a lot of time on her application.

We did a spreadsheet explaining the source of her income with receipt. Her husband also wrote a letter confirming his monthly contribution to her account. I also provided all my details (house documents, payslip, British passport, invitation card and photos) I'm not sure what else can be done.

Would it be easier if I offered to pay for all her expenses? Help

You will need to contact individual schools for their admission process and deadlines. You can find this information on their websites as well. I think there may be some bursary for nursing students but i'm not sure if it's limited to citizens or for everyone. Get more information on respective university's website.

Guys please I need help. I filled Belfast, Northern Ireland or my DS-160 because it is closest to me. But there have been no appointment dates there for days

Can I reschedule to London where I saw appointment for December 2023?


Not sure if you meant scheduling in London rather than rescheduling as you haven't already scheduled an appointment in Belfast if i have understood your statement correctly. It's okay to schedule in London even though you filled Belfast in your DS-160. All you need to do is fill up another DS-160 (not mandatory) before you attend your interview in London otherwise there might be slight delay during your interview as the visa officer would need to first transfer your application electronically from Belfast to London before your actual interview commences (time consuming- takes couple of minutes.) Hope this information helps.

Hi everyone, I want to cross to nursing
Did my hnd in public administration, got done with a lower credit
I will love to do nursing in ik , my travel preparation will start next year , is there anyone who can advice me on what and how to go about it
I’d really appreciate

Firstly, you need to decide if its General nursing you are thinking about or mental health nursing. Since you have a first degree, mental health nursing might be an easier choice as you do not have a prior knowledge in sciences. I will advice Masters in mental health nursing although i'm aware it is becoming very competitive due the number of applicants. Hope this information helps. You can get more information online and from schools offering the programs.
Travel / Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Segun889: 3:18pm On Jul 20, 2023
You can go ahead and apply for 2 years. You have a better chance at it. I'm not sure anyone can give you an absolute guarantee but rather on the balance of probability.
NB: You still have to demonstrate your personal circumstance is admissible (ie. finances and home-times) irrespective of the other pre-existing visas (even though they give you an advantage). Hope this information helps.
Ozzy15:


Thanks for your response, so rather than applying for 6months I should just go ahead and apply for 2years. Do you have any instance where the person was given 2years as first visa issuance?. I'm sorry for the questions I just want to be double sure,so my money doesn't go to waste.

Thank you so much @segun889. My mum picked up her 6 months visa today. I stated in her application that she’ll be spending 10 days during her visit, is it okay if she decides to spend 3weeks instead?

Thank you

Congratulations. She can spend however long she decides but not exceeding 6months. So to answer your question directly- Yes it is okay.

She can show her house documents, utility bill energy bill to prove her home ownership.
You will need your rental or accommodation letter/agreement
Because your brother funded part of your fees and upkeep, it further supports that: 1. He has some commitment to sponsoring your education as well as your upcoming graduation. 2. He has capacity with evidence to fund your mum.
Your mum’s application looks good to be honest.

Lawunmi11:

Thank you for your reply
Yes she’s a home owner. How do you think she can prove this
I’ll be responsible for her accommodation only
My brother did fund part of my school fees and upkeep
Travel / Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Segun889: 9:41am On Jul 11, 2023
A few questions to ask; You have stated she is an integral part of the landlord association. so is she a homeowner? If yes, you can evidence this with property details.

Secondly, are you gonna be responding for her accommodation only?

Lastly, did your brother fund any part of your schooling or upkeep?

Overall, I think your brother in US should provide a supporting letter to state he would be responsible for her travel (visa application fees and flight ticket) and miscellaneous expenses during her 10 day visit for your graduation. He should also state the amount he will support her with and can also include a statement that he already made some transfer to her account for her trip. It might also help to include his bio data page of his passport as well as yours.





Lawunmi11:
Hi all
Please I need advice on what to do in this scenario
I want to invite my mother to my graduation but I can’t sponsor her because I can’t afford it
However, my brother in the US wants to sponsor her trip. He sent #1.5m in to her account a month ago. The issue now is that my mother is unemployed so is it okay to state and show in the bank statement that the money came from her son who is willing and capable to sponsor the trip. She has her own savings of about 600k in the account before the 1.5m. She’ll be staying with me during her 10 days trip
I stated in her application that she’s unemployed but receives a basic #100,000 monthly allowance from my brother sponsoring the trip.
I plan to show this in her bank statement too
I also added that she’s an integral part of the landlord association in her community to show that she has ties in her home country
Please What else can I add to the application to convince the Eco
Thank you

To answer your question directly- Yes you can have a 1 year COS.
There is no fixed length for COS, it is rather dependent on the length of your contract. So bear in mind you will need a renewal of your work visa (ie new contract/COS) on or before the current one you will receive expires


24krests:
Please treat as urgent !!!

I have been offered a one year COS for a care job. I will like to know if there is anything like one year tier2 visa. My fear comes from the fact that every COS I’ve been told about is either 3 or 5years.

Can I use it the one year COS for my visa application.

Thank you for the reply Bro. I got my Visa approved on Wednesday here in Abu Dhabi and got my passport this evening.

Another question, I mentioned in my DS-160 that I will be staying in Houston when I arrived in the states but during my interview New york was one of the states I mentioned to VO that I will visit but Looking at the flight from Dubai to Houston is far and more costly than the flight from dubai to New York. If I want to go in through New York will there be an issue for not going through the state I mentioned on my DS-160?

I'm not sure if you meant what to do at JFK airport or NY. Secondly clarify if JFK is your final stop or transit to your final stop.
Generally though, JFK is very busy. Depending on your time of arrival there (mornings are slightly better) or the terminal you arrive at, you are likely to spend quite some time on the queue to get through CBP agent. You may need to use the air train as well. Once you collect your bags you can go to any of the lounge or to the food court if you have time. I must say that only if you have 4 or more hours to spend at the airport would you have time to do anything else otherwise, by the time you are through with CBP and getting your luggage i guarantee you'll be looking for the Exit to the Cabs.

In future, try going through Newark or LaGuardia to compare if you prefer quieter airports (esp LaGuardia). Hope this helps grin

Thank you for the reply. around 5k USD would be great budget for this or more? Any idea? Plus do I need to do my hotels reservation before the interview in case the VO would ask ?

5K to spend in 14 days depends on your what your income and account balance looks like. 5K (flight+hotel stay for 2weeks+feeding +continental US travel+ some small shopping) looks good. You can make hotel reservations without payment (booking.com) to bolster your itinerary evidence. Please don't buy any flight tickets yet smiley

Hello Abujaniv,
I finished my F1 interview on April 27th, 2023 at Abuja, and the last time my case status was updated at ceac.state.gov was on May 2nd with a status of Application received. Since then, things have continued in this manner. After the interview, I was given a white slip with the locations to pick up my passport and visa in 5–10 days.

So my question on this my answer is, is ir realistic to visit all these states within 14 days? Cuz I did the same when I traveled to europe last year as a tourist I visited 5 countries from Germany, Please I need your answers cuz it will be very helpful. Thanks

It is very possible to do these visits in 14 days. However be mindful that continental European travel is very cheap… you wouldn’t get similar prices for travel within US.

You don’t need to cancel it. You put in a lower figure than the actual amount. This would typically not count against your mum.


Mariamade21:
Hello,
Please I need an advise.
I have submitted my mums application for a 2year visa and we made a mistake on the form, really don’t know how we missed it. The figure we put as what she earns is different from the payslips she has. Her salary was increased so she’s earning higher than what she was earning last year but we put the last year figure in the form.

Should we cancel the application and re-submit another ?
OR Should we submit another cover letter highlighting the error?

Can this cause a refusal? She’s to do her biometrics on Monday. I’m really worried

It’s okay if her husband is covering the cost. So you need to check the average cost of flight to uk at the moment (eg £600 and extra £300-400 for stipend depending on how long she is staying there). If she isn’t going shopping, 3M (approx £5232) will appear as a lot. Remember, to use oanda to calculate estimates.


My dad stated in his financial consent letter that he would be the one to pay for her flight ticket and her pocket money. That is why I wanted to know how much she could put down as her spending money out of the statement containing 3m.

For me, I don't have a regular job because my professional course leaves me with little time to work due to placements and I have childcare too. I managed to do some hours earlier in the year, but that's about it. Though I have a mutual funds account in Nigeria, can I present that?

In view of the information, like what percentage of the statement can she present as her spending money?


Thanks as I await your kind response.

You don’t need a heavy bank statement for visa application if your application is genuine. However, you do need to show your travel expenses and that you can sustain yourself when you are in the country. In your case, since it’s for an assessment, indicate your trip if for a week for example. If you have where to stay, then it’s even better as you wouldn’t need to show proof you can afford accommodation
