I just dey laugh Nigeria. They think Asians are a better alternative to white/western people just like how some people think Russia would be better off as world power compared to the west.The chinks are known to be souless and have zero empathy. They are like blacks but with very high IQ. Atleast white people have empathy toward animal and human (that's why their country is being flooded today by immigrants) they feel guilty for what their ancestors did to the world, especially Germany with the holocaust, its called White-Guilt, it's actually a thing but the Chinese? Lol.

lmay18:

Thank you Sir.

Brightingsus:


Nah, what I meant was whether you were a first-timer or a repeater. Naturally if you have applied for a UK visa and got it and did not overstay your visa, when you apply again it takes less time to verify your identity and you are not seen as a potential overstayer.

Nonetheless yours took the 15 working days (decision in 3 weeks)...

Brightingsus:


First-time Application or Renewal?

Standard or Priority?

Kalabariprinces:
Morning all,

Clearly I'm impatient! The 15days has passed no email, no change on tls and number not recognized on UKVI.

Is there any other way to check? The U.K. Embassy want you to be gainfully employed or engaged in meaningful business but then they just mess you around! Our proposed travel date will soon pass �

Any July ers with positive feedback
Thanks

lightdream:
Please what the max response time one should expect of a standard visit application that was submitted 8th June. Though it dint meet up the initial primary intends of July. Everyday tracking is still not recognized. Any timing? thank you

shrekandfiona:

I am sorry I don't have any advice for you.

I just want to point out your lies. You couldn't have been 10 weeks gone in June and due in November. You were 4 months pregnant in June Sir/Ma.

You are welcome

Brightingsus:


You know, TLS may start out with realtime information. However as the application progresses they may not provide realtime information. This explains why some applicants sometimes get decision email from TLS and a few hours later same day they get collection email from same TLS.

TatPat:


Congratulations!

Tiyanya:
Sorry did you pay for priority?

Advisory:

You people that keep saying adults cannot be sponsored have forgotten that children living in the UK have sponsored their parents who are retired or were even farmers, traders and are you saying those people are not classed as adults or not being sponsored?
Who fiancé that sponsored fiancées that aren't earning much in Nigeria to visit them in UK ( are those not adults too?)

justwise:


So basically he is going to visit someone on visiting visa or an overstayer?

justwise:


If he answers NO what then is he going to do in the UK?

Olufemiopa:
Dear All,

Please, I need your advice to tick either yes or no as I am filling the application online. I want to visit my family friend in the UK.

Is the main purpose of your trip to visit/stay with a close family relative who is settled in the UK?

justwise:


The answer can never be NO since this is visiting visa application.

Hello Mandex11,
I had challenges with these airlines inasmuch as I did thorough research as well as visited the airline desk offices prior to travel day. Although I was 31 weeks plus gone, Arik Air staff told me they would fly me at 32 weeks as I was due to travel few days later. However, Air Peace staff said their policy states 31 weeks but since I didn't have an obvious belly, I should use Port Health for certification before flying.
I should have opted for Arik, but the airline only flies on specific days and so I had to settle for Air Peace. Mehn, armed with my Doctor's report and cleared by the ground Staff, that's how the flight attendant refused me to fly. The flight was delayed for another 30 minutes because of me. The attendant found out it wasn't specified on my Sealed fit to fly, my gestation age.
I brought out my medical records as well as fit to fly I used a month before, but the attendant refused to look at them saying it was expired.
The Pilot even asked him to waive it for me.
I was eventually given a form to fill should anything happen to me, which I did.

Note:
I was informed by the flight attendant that Air Peace flies pregnant women at 33 weeks. Just ensure you/your wife's fit to fly contains ALL vital piece of information(gestation age, that you are fit to fly, etc.)

dominique:
The divorce court judge must be very stupid and incompetent to separate young sibblings and divide them amongst parents as if they are pieces of items. Whatever happened to assigning sole custody to one parent and grant visitation rights to the other?

ekpotek:


What is more important is the passport number on the application form. If that is correct you do not have a problem. Go with both current and expire passports for the appointment and explain the mistake. You can also cancel the appointment and create a fresh one. Other gurus can add their opinions.

showstopa:
Hello All,

Ekpotek or Justwise or anyone who has been in this scenario.

So after all said and done I have just paid the application fee on visa4uk site only to see on the printed appointment slip that I have put my Mum's expired passport as opposed to the current one. I am annoyed at myself now but I cannot even open the application to see if that is what I filled inside as they are experiencing heavy traffic.
Do I just cancel this application and ask for a refund or does she just print the application and go with it and try to explain herself. arghhhhhh.

Can anyone advise. Thank You

What a day! so i have managed to open the submitted form and I did indeed put the right passport number in the application, however the appointment letter for some weird reason printed out the expired passport. I hope this is not a problem when she arrives at TLS

dcutey:


Showstopa, did you try to change the month on the page by clicking the arrow to the right of June 2017? It's on the visa4uk site that you choose an appointment date, what you will do on the TLS site is download and print your payment confirmation, submitted application and document checklist which must be brought to the visa application centre on your appointment date.

ekpotek:


After filling and submitting the online form at vias4UK. The next step is to pay for visa and associated fees online depending on which TLS centre you choose to submit. Each application form have a reference number. Use this reference number after creating an account on the TLS website/centre selected for submission to book appointment. It is on TLS website that you can book appointment to submit your documents and not on visa4UK site. I hope this clarification helps.

It is onus on the applicant to [b]submit the necessary documentation [/b]to support their visa application. The home office is not in the habit of waivers or giving any benefit of doubt for absence of documents for visit visas. It's important that applicants do not give the ECO any reason to refusal their application based on lack of document.
