TravelRe: General USA Student Visa Enquiries-part 18 by skybird1: 11:33pm On Jul 09, 2025
Reducing to 3 months is not workable and not sustainable for the US themselves as they are aware it would cause undue hardship to especially new students in the USA. Can’t say I’m glad I got mine in last year because a lot of people will be affected. Let’s see what our govt will do.

The best way to reply to a question you do not know the answer to:

Thank you for the question, I do not the answer to the question you asked. Permit me to make findings and get back to you.

Then you'll give a timeline of when you will get back.

Hello great people, thanks for all the good work.
I applied for a Visit Visa last year (business ) for a training but I could not go cos my Visa came 2 months after the training.
My Visa is expiring in March and another training has been organized few days after my Visa expiration.
Can I extend the Visa (keep in mind I didn't use the first one I was given) or,
Can I apply for a new one while this one has not expired?

Please I need your help.

Hi great people, I need your HELP.
My sister's husband in the U.K wants to invite my mum to the U.K for 6 months. She's retired.
I am in Nigeria.
Can I be a co-sponsor?
We have 3m altogether for her trip.
Should we transfer the amount into her account?
Also, what are the things I need to get ready, as regards documents and the rest.

Thanks a lot...

TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by skybird1: 7:14pm On Sep 15, 2017
Hi everyone.....
Like I posted previously,
Business Visa application since 20th of June.
I was supposed to attend a course in August.
The Visa is still not out.
Another training date has been set for November.
Would withdrawing and reapplying make any difference?

Thanks a lot guys.... U are the Best...

Hello guys,

Cheers
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by skybird1: 5:22pm On Sep 05, 2017
Hi guys...
Applied since June 20th..Nothing.
Business 6 months
Was supposed to travel on the 20th of Aug.
Eventually when they make the decision, when would the 6 months start counting.
Also, can I travel to Wales from England to see a family member for a few days with that Visa??

Cheers
TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 3 by skybird1: 12:35am On Aug 14, 2017
Hi guys,
Getting concerned by all the things I've been reading.
Biometrics - 20th June
Called for escalation - 26th July, I was told I'd get a feedback in 15 working days latest (17th Aug)
Travel date - 20th Aug

Business Visit Visa < 6months.

ARE THERE STILL PEOPLE WHO SUBMITTED BEFORE THE 20TH AND HAVEN'T RECEIVED THEIR VISAS..?

Cheers
