ZaraOli: hi all. i have my maintenance fee in the bank already but intend to pay the school fees directly to the school by month end. so i want to know if i can book an appointment for the visa interview now and what do i fill in the details of how much fees i have paid or outstanding. my school has assured me that my CAS will reflect the fees once it is paid. I intend to book now to get an early interview date. thanks
totally impossible. To finish the VISA application, you'll need to input information written on the CAS

beautyuche: Goodday All,

I just submitted my visa application yesterday at the ikeja office Now my wait period begins.....those who just applied and received their vis how long is it taking now.In december it was about 10 working days.

Also based on the new 820 for outter london will this be multiplied by one year or 9 month duration as my course is for nine months and i dont have d one year money in it my calculation was based on 800.

My head no go gree me rest since i ve been denied on the grounds of this account stuff
It takes a maximum of 15 working days.
It is 9months and £820.

Why did you submit when you knew it was 820 and you had only 800?

dspy45: ur threads advices one to make a little deposit or withdraw to show a closing balance. so i will love to know at what date in particular this cld be done before printing
It was not actually justwise that said that.

You don't need to do that. On every statement, it is written the dates that was printed. example: 10 July 2014 - 8 August 2014
and the closing balance.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part2 by spikesC(m): 12:17pm On Jul 15, 2014
dspy45: Please advice

I deposited the balance of maintenance and balance of school fees on 10th July 2014, when is the best possible date to make last transaction, best date to print statement and wen to apply?

Again, i have well over more than the amount cos i calculated my total of maintenance fund and balance with a GRP of 300pounds to be a on a safer side and still have extras. So can i make withdraws and equally put back the money in beats so activities can go and about with the said account rather than jus leaving it?
You do not need to make any other transaction after the deposit.
You can print your statement on 7th August but i would advise you print the next day, being 8th August.
You can apply that weekend after the 28th day and not more than 3months before your course start date

You do not need to stimulate activities as it doesn't matter and would even be obvious, just leave the account as it is and print after your 28th day.

milychocs: Hello everyone...
Do I need a referral letter from my bank in addition to the statement of account?

Someone told me the letter tells the Home Office that the money in the account is really mine huh
Thank you
If the account is yours, then you do not need any referral letter.
But make sure you ask the bank to give you a statement of account that's used for VISA application

milychocs: Hello
I wrote place of issue Enugu and issuing authority Fed Rep of Nig (covers face)
Please tell me the correct thing to put there

Thank you
Issuing authority on passports acquired in Enugu are boldly written Enugu

There is no place of issue written on the passport, but it is still the same Enugu.

Should this be printed from d date money of maintenance fee and balance of school fees was paid into personal account or rather at the end of the 28 day period? Cos i knw d exchange range tends to fluctuates
End of the 28th day.

No they can't ship directly to Nigeria. You'll have to use a freight forwarder

EMEKA1MILLION: So after payment they take care of shipping ??
Yeah. But make sure you buy the laptop yourself, then put the address of your freight forwarder.

If you have someone in the US to forward it to you, that would also be ok

Itstyme: The gap between my last educational qualification and now is approximately 10 years but all through these years I have been working till date. Do I need to attach evidence of my previous and present employment in my application to show and support the claim I have been work all these while? Secondly, this question might sound stupid but I just want a clarification so I don't have the wrong input; is the "Issuing authority and place of Issue" of the Nigerian passport same and if not can anyone please state the difference as stated in the online form. Thanks
Yes, you should attach those and also explain in the additional section of the application form

Yes, the issuing authority and place of issue is the same

Web MarketRe: Has Anyone Implemented And Tested The UBA U-collect Payment Gateway. by spikesC(m): 9:41pm On Jul 14, 2014
ogunsexy: I have not had a very good customer service experience with UBA lately. This has somewhat biased by view of all its services.

They most significant reason I am electing to use UBA U-Collect is the set up cost. All other "adjunct" services are similar throughout the payment gateways.
I believe they would take this service seriously but the problem would be how soon you can get to the main guys who handle the system when you need help.

I think the setup cost is uniform. 75k for interswitch if you have an account with them.
Mastercard is free
Web MarketRe: Has Anyone Implemented And Tested The UBA U-collect Payment Gateway. by spikesC(m): 7:40pm On Jul 14, 2014
there's also gtb, zenithpay, access bank. Almost every major bank has it.

Even though i haven't, i wouldn't have any fears.
It would definitely be REST APIs and there would be enough docs, examples and sdk

went for service, october 2010 and rounded up october 2011. got a job in april 2013.
so what do u tink?
IMHO, and to be on the safe side, write a brief note about this on the additional section of the application form or a seperate letter if you've already printed the application. Then include the NYSC certificate and your appointment letter.

justwise can also confirm if its even necessary

dspy45: thanks @ spikes.

wld i be needing a letter from my organisation to show proof I will be returning back to Nigeria?

Also, below are details of the documents I intend to submit after the 28day period. Pls confirm if i am in order

1) Statement of Result/NECO - my neco result, an alphabet (N) was added at end of my traditional name. do i need to be worried abt dat as all other documents carries d right name
2) Original Transcript
3) Tuberculosis test Certificate
4) bank Statements
5) CAS
6) Printed Online Form/Self Assessment

Pls if thr r additions lemme know.
Nope, you do not need a letter to show proof you would be returning to Nigeria

You should get an affidavit for the name error. But, if the NECO is not required/written in your CAS, you do not need to submit it at all.

Yes, the documents are complete.

One other thing: As you have been talking about your employment status, if it has been long that you're out of school, you need to tell them what you've been doing in that period. Therefore, submitting your employment documents and writing a letter to tell them about it would be a very good idea

i have been reading this thread carefully to further help myself in compiling my application.
i hav my maintenance fund and balance of school fees which is already counting, 2day making it d 4th day. do i need to show proof of whr funds came as my sponsor transferred the money into my personal account? do i also hav to print statement of my salary account as i hav been workin for a over a year? Does the letter of sponsorship need b on a letterhead? Do i need to show an affidavit to claim sponsor is my brother?
No, you do not need to proof source of funds and should only submit the statement of the account that has the required money.
You also do not need a letter of sponsorship as the money is in your account.
You do not need an affidavit, UKVI doesn't need to even know that you have a brother as far as the amount is in your account.

Note: You can not even be sponsored by your brother. Only yourself and your parent(s)

I submitted the Tier 4 form today. But in maintenance section instead of 820, I wrote 800. But I do have the required finances in my account according to the renewed rules. So will it make any difference. Or will I have to attach a letter to notify them about it??
