Theflint1: I wanna send my admission documents to schools in d USA
Wow, they require hard copies? are you sure? This is quite risky o

Well, i would advise you ask this question on the USA student VISA section.
They, who have done it, would confirm and recommend the best way they did.


Parcels get lost a lotta times at Nipost. Valuables also get stolen.
I would rather you use DHL or FedEx than Nipost. The cost is way worth it

sashacoleman: I was there this morning, for 4 hours, nothing! ive tracked soteeyyyy, I don tire to track, i'm so tired. why did I not just apply from Ikeja sha?
sashacoleman: plus teleperfomance does not have a contact number? do you have a number I can reach them on. I live on the island, so I was there everyday this week. They were four of us waiting today, all of us applied on the same 3rd of July and nothing. I don't knw what going on. I was supposed to travel tomorrow on a work trip, I had to cancel and change my flight ticket because of this people.
Sorry for the disappointments. I applied there too just because it was closer to me, even though i knew Ikeja was faster.

I can't find their contact number on the website but they have a feedback form here: http://www.ge2ng.tpcontact.co.uk/feedback-complaints
But if they told you at the office that it has not gotten to them, then i see no reason for you to contact them again.

One other option, as you're really that anxious, you can contact the UKVI themselves.
They would tell you if your application is still being processed or otherwise.

Here's the Sheffield email address: VisaSheffield *at* homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk

They also have a premium contact number, but their email response is quite fast

sashacoleman: Day 17th. Nothing yet... This is not even funny anymore.
errrm, this is ur day 16.
Track the application online and check.
If status is not updated, call teleperformance and ask whether ur package has arrived.
If they cant disclose that information on the phone, go there yourself today and check.

They have been having issues with their notification system and they specifically told me that even if i didn't get notified, i should check with them exactly after 15 working days

hmmmmmmmm, ok

The OP, IrishKez, is not really single by choice.
She lives in fear, imprisoned by herself and her religious doctrines, but the burning desire to engage in all odds of life are there as it is quite evident in her posts.
Yes, she is single but not really because she wants to be, but because she is afraid.
Though she just haven't found that person to trust, who would have the much needed patience to tolerate the kind of "out of touch" relationship they would have.


In other words:

These are the questions you'll be asked. It's not much, just 3 minutes of your time

spikesC: Name of your school?
Name of your course?
Why you chose the school?
Why you chose UK?
Why you chose the course?
What's the benefit of the course to your career aspirations?
Do you understand the questions you were asked?

Sometimes they ask:
What's your plan next after finishing the course?
Do you know anyone in the UK?

Finafina: Same thought too...I'm having my tb test tmrw and then I'm a bit scared about visa interview dunno y yet. Maybe because I ddnt do this myself. So I bet I have to research more.
you don't have to be cool

Just prep yourself on the questions i posted above. All they really wanna know is whether you actually know what and where you're going.

Then, they might also ask your school addreses.
That is, the main address and your campus address.
you don't have to know the full addresses, just the cities and local area is enough.

TravelRe: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 2 by spikesC(m): 4:52pm On Jul 23, 2014
spikesC: Justwise, one quick question.
As has been seen of the relevance of company registration and tax clearance in VISA applications, can business name registration suffice?

I have a business registered as sole ownership, as i cannot register a company in such regard (though i would still upgrade in the near future).
Yes, i would get my TIN, pay tax and get tax clearance when due. Business account is also been used.

Now, can the above be used or must it be businesses registered as companies?


In my opinion, it should, but am asking because of the inherent discrimination leveled against sole ownership businesses when applying for contracts from the government.

The Obama administration should have known this. No super power would ever get directly involved in such conflicts.

CelebritiesRe: Davido Bought His “aye” Song From Runtown.. by spikesC(m): 10:50pm On Jul 22, 2014
This is no news. I wonder why all these petty bloggers is making an issue out of it.
Gobe was written and even released by another artiste. Davido bought the song afterwards, changed the tempo and part of the lyrics and released it.

Buying songs is not a new thing. Songs are Intellectual properties, and therefore can be traded.
Even at the back of albums, all songs are rightfully written the names of the writers, if the agreement depicts so.
When you get popular, you seize to be a musician and turn into an entertainer.

In a normal setting, an entertaining musician has a song writer, PR manager, producer, choreographer, costumier, agent, legal manager etc.
And all these people also have their own support staff.

That is why we keep saying that Nigerian Entertainment Industry has a very long way to go.

Orunto: Uthman Dan Fodio was an alien, an intruder and a Sunni Arab to and in Nigeria. He was never a Nigerian. Nigeria belongs to Nigerians of 29% Hausa/Fulani; 21% Yoruba from Kebbi, the source of River Niger(spiritual river euphrate) to the coast; 18% Igbos(Ibos) from Taraba, the source of River Benue(spitual tigris) also to the coast.others representing 32% comprise Tivs, Idomas,Jucunds, Ijaws,Ibibios e.t.c. and does not include aliens and foreigners like arabs. So you see, when you take 29% Hausa/Fulani out of a 100%, the remaining 71% are still the majority to take democratic decision in Nigeria without fear of favour. The fear of the caliphate should not be the emotions of Nigerians afterall.
Quite right, but what happens when decisions do not favor them?
The massacre continues?

The huge difference in religious fanaticism is enough to break us up.
Nepotism has always been there. Since we started, non-Muslims has always been killed day in day out in the north.
Any small misunderstanding, they carry up arms and kill non-Muslims, yet there is absolutely nothing ever been accomplished about it.

I wonder why we're so blinded on that fact. Why don't we all go our own way to avoid all these killings.
Religion is deeply entrenched in our politics, so IT WOULD NEVER WORKOUT.
