Who else has been having issues with paying IHS fee. I have been trying to use Paga to pay the fee since morning and it just keeps displaying ‘Error. We are having technical issue’.

Send a mail to paga, if you have limited time and enough money, fund another paga account for your transaction.
The limit on the first paga account was not well profiled

Adear:
Okay. Thanks. Did mine on the 8th. I haven't received decision mail. I'm worried but I guess I just need to be patient.

Please call Ukvi

Now this is my testimony, I started pursing my desire to educate myself in a foreign country in 2018, applied to the US three times but was rejected, applied to Canada for a visiting visa but was also rejected. At a point i was so depressed and almost gave us, but i had a dream, i saw my self and three other friends of mine in the Uk on a plane, i knew it was God pointing me the United Kingdom, so i applied to different schools, some rejected me because of my immigration history but one did not, so i applied to join the march 2020 batch corona came and my intake was suspended. But i still did not give up, I deferred to September, September came i was uncertain about the pandemic because i did not want to waste money, i had earlier done a tb test which had expired, so i told me self to look to November, as God may have it i applied and got my visa, i give glory to God, only he alone can do it, and i pray that for you all still believing God for your visas you will get yours IJN Amen, thank you to all our elders on this forum for your assistance I really appreciate.

Cyberknight:
If you can get a sterling card, then convert your money to sterling, take the hit, get a sterling card, and move on.

Fact: the banks will make money off you because this is what they are set up to do once you move money through them. All you can do is limit how much they hit you for, not eliminate it entirely.

Sterling Naira card?
What is their international card limit

macbernard:
Best exchange rate ever. 381 naira to a dollar. But avoid Paga verve if you can

Please why

ChandlerBing:
When I called them, I selected the option of 'other enquiries'. I found that selecting IELTS sent me straight to voicemail/callback. Once they pick up, refuse to get off the line till they resolve your query.

It helps if you already sent them emails. Refer them to your email.

After I ended one of those calls, I just refreshed result page and was surprised it opened.

Till now no response to the emails.

I have sent several emails but the number I have is not connecting
Can you help me with the one you have. Would have gone to their office but I don't reside in Abuja

ChandlerBing:
After a series of phone calls and a few strongly worded emails, I finally got my June 30th BC result. Thankfully, it's my first and last IELTS.

Long post alert.

So our journey started January Last year.

PTE =20 points (January 2017)
ACS =( Feb 2017) 10 years experience reduced to 4.
Experience= 5Pts
Education 10pts.
Age =25.
Total =60 pts

Applied for EOI on 04/03/2107 with 60pts (189).
65 points nsw. (190). (Vic was closed)

Of course our point was low and 263111 had already reached its ceiling.
However, we were hoping for two things.
Getting called in July 2017, when the new list is out, based on we'd have been on the queue for over three months and an increase in our point in Oct (work anniversary).

The first didn't happen..the second did.
Still no ITA.

Then I sent @alphadoor an email sometime in Sept..or maybe he sent me an email. Can't really recall.

And he explained how to go about correcting the "injustice" of ACS reducing 11years to 5 years.
(Took a lot of convincing and another of my Husband's colleague getting his Aussie Grant for my husband to agree to accessment again. He was already fed up with the whole process. )

Another ACS assesment in October 2017.
November 2017- Acs assessment report came out. (Took about 8 weeks. Compared to the 10 days it took in January. That's when I knew, Buhari don dey chase everyone comot).
Report =9yrs plus experience given. Hallelujah!

Submitted another EOI in Nov 17 with Vic and updated the other one for NSW and 189.
Profile now became -70 points total. 75 for 190.

Age -25
English -20
Education -10
Experience -15.

02 Jan- Victoria invitation to apply for state nomination.
03 Jan-applied.
29Jan -Victoria rejection of state nomination.

02 Feb -NSW invitation to apply for state nomination.
06 Feb -applied.
26th March - ITA
Hallelujah.

I was going to wait till Grant to share this but I don't know who the information here might help.
Lack of proper information from scratch is what caused us to have gotten the first assessment wrong, paying another 500 aud for assessment and being delayed this long. However, I'm a strong believer in God's timing is never wrong.

I can't thank @Alphadoor enough.
I can only pay it forward from time to time by responding to questions here.
Thank you @bellong for this thread.
Also to everyone who have responded to my plenty questions here when I just joined the thread, thank you.

Keep us in your prayers and I'm praying everyone who is waiting for good news too will share there's soon.
Grant fall on us soon. Amen..

Congrats my people

Congratulations @bellacious! We dey follow you for back

Okay, so sometime ago we organised an IELTS listening webinar for some guys on this thread and the feedback was really good. Now, we've got some more time on our hands and will organize another this Friday (tentative). Date will be confirmed tomorrow. If you want to join in, send me a PM and I'll book you in. It's free. The idea is to touch on cool strategies for listening and hopefully also reading and writing. Joining instructions will be sent to the email with which you PM. Holla, if interested

Do you both have the following so we can advice who to be the principal applicant?

Age < 39 years
Ability to score high in English 10 or 20 points ( find out)
BSc is 15points, HND is 10 points. You already have 15points.
Experience ( you'll get 15 points assessment ). 8- 10 years gives 15 points.You are good to assess with CPA ( Certified Accountants Australia).

You didn't state your hubby's occupation but with what I'm seeing, you should try to be the principal applicant but must be ready to score very high say 85 so as to get a quick ITA as an accountant.

Wow God bless you for your quick response
I am 35 hubby is 39
I am not yet chartered hope I will still get the 15 points
Hubby is a farmer he is self employed. He has 11 years experience with State government as a Teacher

Thank you

spyroxy1:
You really need a big savings bro as this is not a thounsand investment. However, you will not be spending all the 'fees' all at once, its at different stages.

The big cash you will be spending at once at the Visa fee, which will cost you about AUD9000 (N2.6M)

https://www.homeaffairs.gov.au/Trav/Visa-1/189-?modal=pricing-estimator

Flight cost should be about N1.7M (family of 6)

English that you are yet to do (PTE costs 52K, IELTS costs 68k for now). PM me for me details on this.

Assessment roughly costs betwee 700-1000 AUD

Start your savings now!!!

N;B: Please don't go again sir, as you may increase your family size to 8

Hmmm This is not a small investment
I have Bsc Accounting
I have 12 years banking experience

Hubby is self employed
He has HND Bio chemistry

Please what are oh chances

Tojued:
Are you family of 7? Or are you mistaking this for Australia immigration?

Before ita, all you need is 150k for eca and ielts.

After ita, medicals, courrier. Visa fée and air ticket are the real expenditures and you don't spend on those till you get ita and ppr respectively.

POF is for your own pocket and spending.

what about transcript
