Itstyme: Hi SpikesC, i have been able to pay for the app online using the same card that got declined initially. Though I had to create a new application and had all info of the card correct this time. Thanks for your help I appreciate. Any update on ur application yet?

That's good.
I still dey wait ooo.

I sent teleperformance an email today but they havn't replied. Right now am beginning to regret submitting at their center

constance234: lucky you,hope they come back with an alternative for me i dont have the time to write that exam also its extra expenses for me.
see you over there

Don't worry, they would.

Will be looking forward to it

I don't know java

But basically, use curl

constance234: really,so how did you go about your language test....i guess your visa is ready or you applied already.

i used waec.

I have applied, waiting for them now

kennygee: how does my comment concern you any way?

Please stay off my mentions and take your fleas with you, i don't want to catch it, smarty.

I just want you to go back to school, i don't like public display of ignorance, illiteracy and stupidity.

MadCow1: I am cool with the validity period to be honest. You dont want a dead Niggas passport to still be in circulation for so long after he is gone.

And I understand targeting the frequent fliers with this new 'bible sized' passport booklet. I just hope this does not invalidate the existing ones sha.

Thats a point.

Ofcourse not, old passports are still valid, it's just new ones that would have to get the bible sized parle

mayorall: Currently at immigration office. I was told it will be #30,000 from August 1st. Am getting this at #16,500 Now. Still sitting

Which immigration office is that?
The passport has always been 15k. I think you used the stereotype mentality of going through someone, instead of doing it your self. So na service charge you dey pay

MadCow1: Huh?!

Wetin you dey yarn?!

Na by page?!

The expiry date is still the same o! Wether 100 page or not. The last time wey my Passport full (when I was still hussling ECOWAS COuntries), them start to dey stamp anywhere.. Some sef stamp the cover of the passport.

Yes, pages are relevant. Some who travels frequently would need more pages. This development is basically targeted to them.

They get 2 passports for just an extra 5k.

Btw, the length of validity of a pass is inversely proportional to the security. Ask visa officers, they would tell you why

ashewopeckas: U don't have to insult me & NO, it doesn't come out the same day. How can u possibly achieve that, do u know the no of pple applying everyday? And there r just 2 immigration offices in Lagos oh.....maybe one sef, Alagbon Ikoyi

So now i dont have to insult you, when you change every thing to stereotypes and decieving ignorant ppl.

Nigerian International passport comes out same day.

You shouldn't reach to conclusions you don't know anything about just because you think the number of people who seek for it in a day would be many whereas the fact is that they are not.

kennygee: Thank you for jumping into conclusions.

What i meant is how much will the government claimed they spent on this new development.

Don't read to reply, read to understand.

What has that got to do with the news?
Covering educational deformation with stupidity

MadCow1: E be like say na only number of pages dem increase.

However, me no dey buy this new one until my old one expire.

Is that not the idea? why would you renew when the old one has not expired?

Increasing the number of pages has also saved you 15k plus a trip to the immigration office

buJu234: To be frank leave PDP & APC battle now..

GEJ why are u just bring only programs that will cost the average man more money & stress...

although the official price na 20k but the Immigration office price will b over 50k...

from new car plate no. to new drivers licences to new e-passport etc etc why why

i tire ooo... is this the fresh air/transformation...?

Will be?

How would you know the exact price when you've never been to an immigration office?
You'll be in your village declaring figures from ur azs

ashewopeckas: =N=20,000 if u wanna collect it in 1month, =N=40k if u want it in 3days

Illiterate. Nigerian International passport comes out same day

constance234: thank you i am very grateful,i will send a mail to them immediately requesting this option,its the University of greenwich.
i will update you when i get a reply from them.

Am also heading to greenwich

constance234: Nope i have NECO i am going for an Msc so my degree is needed,The WAEC was needed to wave me taking the english language test as apparently they dont accept NECO in lieu.

which school is that? if they accept waec they would accept another proof. Ask them if they would take a written official letter from your school, stating that you were taught in English and that your English is very good.

Tell them that you can't take the English test, that they should ask for any other proof.

constance234: yes they needed WASSCE I provided NECO all this was after the fact when they clarified they wanted WAEC..

And you don't have WAEC?

constance234: advice please,apparently there was a communication issue between me and my school in Uk,the waived the English language requrement on the premise i possessed c6 in WASSCE,but i have a c4 in NECO so now i have to take a language test.
pls which is faster and also i can pass more easily IELTS OR PTE
thank you

This is wrong, C4 is better than C6.
Or is it that they require only wassce and you provided only Neco

ikequan: Pls these my first project in networked applications. some pls help me some api layer example links and code or details explanation. Thank for you

A web based api. Example is facebook, twitter api. Infact almost all websites have it.
To make it easier for you, you just develop a REST api, pass in the voucher code as a GET or POST variable, and return a response such as VALID, INVALID, USED etc.

Another good thing here is that you can even integrate the api in other peoples' website without the need of giving them your database access credentials, which is a security risk.

Check out how bulk sms website api works. It is the simplest form of the REST api

Why don't you develop an Api layer instead of connecting directly to the database.

sassybee: @spikesC ... have you heard anything from teleperformance?

naaah, i have not ooo

GlobalCareers: For the 28 days, is it 28 working days? Or are saturdays and sundays included in the count?

28 days, inclusive of all holidays

All these can stop if the owner wants it to stop. Right now, the traffic is more important to him than any other thing

afridigit: If you can sponsor it we can make it opensource.

Kemulch: Thanks guys: In 2011 I applied for a US student visa. On the day of my interview, the visa was approved but after two days the embassy called me back. They told me I applied for a visitor visa in 2002 with a different passport (different names and date of birth) but did not mention it. The consular officer told that I gave him a misleading information and because of that I may not be able to go to the US again. He entered some information in his computer which I think was to reverse the visa and effect the ban but my passport was not stamped.

Now am applying to go to study in the UK. I have paid part of the tuition and have the remaining including my upkeep money for 28 days now. I'm really concerned. I have read the UKBA articles concerning visa refusals; they have mandatory visa refusal and refusal based on the discretion of the Consular officer. The mandatory visa refusals is usually based on forged documents i.e. If there is any forged document the consular officer must not issue the visa. All my documents are genuine. I have no worries on this one


The other refusals based on the discretion of the consular officer includes travel ban. i.e. If the applicant has a travel ban the consular may at his discretion not issue the visa.

Now, this is where am worried and need an honest advice. I don't know if the travel ban is only to the UK. I have a ban to the US. Will this affect my UK student visa application?

Somebody help pls. Candid (professional if possible) advice needed.
Thanks. I'm sorry for the long write up

No one, and i mean no a single person can tell you if you would be denied the UK student visa.
What you committed in 2002, using a different name and date of birth, is a big time deception and fraud, but then, it is still in the discretion of the VO to stamp your passport even if you meet up with the requirements.

All you can do now is to apply and pray, nothing else.
But answer all questions truthfully this time around, even about the denials.

cookies: Ok, yes I paid last week Wednesday
.

You can also print for that last week wednesday

Itstyme: Did you see the error message content I sent in the previous post. The problem I am now facing is that, It wont even go through when I click on "make payment" to contact worldpay i.e to bring the options of the payment to choose. All it brings is the error page for over 3 days now.

Ahhh, that's weird. Maybe you should create another application and pay for that one or you contact them and tell them of the error

pato231: Thank you i appreciate,but i thought i have to print 3 months statement of account or is 30 days statement more advisable or the standard?

Uk Tier4 visa requirement is 28 days, i advised you to print 30 just to remove any complication for the VO

seselez: Thank u. What if d money has always been there in d bank?

Good, just print 28 to 30 days period and submit

pato231: @spikesC

Nope, it doesn't matter. Just print 28 to 30 days period statement and submit

seselez: Good day. Pls i want to ask, d moni in d bank, can i use my dad's statement of account and present to dem for d visa stuff or i shud transfer d moni to my personal account and leave it for 28days? If i leave it for 28days b4 applying, time might b against me because my sch resumes 9th sept. Pls put me through, thank u.

Yes, you can use your dad's account.
But it you'll have to provide your birth certificate which should have your dad's name and your name, then provide a written and signed letter of sponsorship from your dad.
Also, no matter whose account you use, the money must be there for a minimum consecutive 28 days

Chaze85: Thank you for ur help,godbless u
