Flunctuations wont really matter...check the exchange rate before the day of your biometrics, 30000 pounds would have kept you on a safer side .

bobodudu100:
I did and its 29360 but I felt it might be too close. Could that possibly affect me considering fluctuations

Convert the 13.2 million to pounds using oanda conversion rate.

bobodudu100:
Hey guys plan can you help me verify this.
For a course of 20000 pounds and maintenance fee of 9135. Total 29135 pounds. Is a bank statement of 13.2 million naira starting from 15th july to 13 august 2019,ok? If I plan to go for visa interview on 30 August. Pls help me here
Thanks

[quote author=Sleeksylvia post=81497613]Please can you give me the email you used in contacting them?

I did mine in lagos and there was nothing like overcrowding , and i got my certificate fews minutes after the scan instead of coming back later to pick it up.

skyscraper123:
I dunno about number 1
Number 2 however..inform the IOM via mail about the missing passport and ask them for a reschedule so that they can remove your name from the slot they gave you.
I can also tell you for a fact that the Abuja centre is easier to deal with than Lag. My friend did in Lagos while I did in Abuja and he complained terribly of overcrowding while I was done in less than an hour.. no exaggeration.. but I dnt understand what you mean by "faster in terms of appointment"...u can book whenever you want in both centres..buh in Abj..they gave me 9:45 am..i got ther 9:30 and was done by few minutes past 10...i was told to come back by 4pm exactly.. I was back for my certificate by 3:30pm and by 4pm I got my cert.

Yes i emailed them on Monday, got a response that a decision has been made on Tuesday, collected my passport today.

Emeraldvoque:
Have you heard from them?

Testimony time
I collected my passport few minutes ago with my tier 4 visa on it....i really appreciate all the advice and tips from this forum

How can i contact them please?

Emeraldvoque:
Wow! Have you tried contacting them via email or phone? And did you apply at the Abuja or Lagos VAC?
Let’s just hope for the best, it will surely end in praise.

No i have not contacted them...did my biometric at TLS ikeja lagos.

Did my biometrics and interview on the 22nd of July, still patiently awaiiting collection mail.

Emeraldvoque:
You might need to patiently wait for the stipulated 15 working days to elapse. I had my biometrics and credibility interview via Standard application on 31st July, received Sheffield mail on 1st August and still patiently waiting for the collection mail.
All the best.

Congratulations

Tedx:
Visa application 8/8/19

Hello everyone...i have an appointment at TLS ikeja on the 22 of July for my documents uploads. Will i still conduct the interview on the same day..thanks all

Folashine:
Okay, thank you. I was actually thinking of booking towards Monday. But Incase they did not reply the Email, can I go there and get the test done the same day?

you have to reach them on their mobile lines, book an appointment, make your payments and come for your test on the day of your appointment.

Folashine:
Okay, Thank you.. Will they issue the certificate for me instantly after the test, and what are the things will I take along or are they not going to ask for any document apart from the payment slip?

Yes they will issue the certificate after the test , they will tell you what to bring along while coming for the test.

Smiley01:
it depends on your state of residence. international organisation for migration (IOM) is one of centres that conduct such tests.

IOM, reach them on Thier mobile numbers, then book an appointment with themy and pshe the fees. ..the fees is 54k, they have branches at abuja and lagos

Andrepete:
thanks. How do I schedule a test and which hospitals are the approved ones

it depends on your state of residence. international organisation for migration is one of centres that conduct such tests.

Andrepete:
Hey guys quick question. I successfully completed my schools (Middlesex university) interview stage and I am currently awaiting their reply or my CAS . Do I need to do my TB test upfront before applying for my visa or during application?? Also how long does the test result take in coming out? Thanks

You should do the test as soon as possible, incase the test results isn't clear, and that will take another 10 weeks.... but with all this being equal you will get your test result that self same day

Where did you get that from? Best university in the whole of Minnesota in terms of technology

Where will you classify "University of Minnesota--Twin Cities"

Your GRE score is very poor

Well that's the info that I have. Do you know of any other school in Minnesota that's better than University of Minnesota?

Lizz58:
Good afternoon everyone. I was just granted an admission at Austin Peay State University but I also applied for graduate assistantship and I have not gotten any response about the GA yet. Should i wait a little or start sending mails the departments I applied to?

They will respond back to you via mail

Well, just noticed that now..typing error
Gre -276

Milkshakes01:
The GRE score is even incorrect. Who scores 246 in GRE? The least 260

I would also be able to put to work some of the concept I was taught during my first degree as some of the courses offered are related to courses I encountered during my first degree there by making me a complete and a confident graduate in my field of specialization.
