Lexusgs430:
Your thinking gear is now zoomed into overdrive. It might not be required, but best to prepare just incase. Nairaland's DM feature, is still stuck in the dark ages.....

Ok, thank you for all your help. Leaving everything in God's hands. Please do you know anything about Saudi Arabia visas?

Lexusgs430:
So they have you over the barrel at the moment. Time to implement Plan C, outside the box thinking & planning.....

Plan C is not looking good at all. I need a UK or US passport for the baby asap. Please does Nairaland have DM features? I might need to DM you

Lexusgs430:
Is your pregnancy really on show? Because you still have the little matter of the airlines policy on transportation of pregnant ladies.............

I am lucky in that department, tall torso so not really showing. My tummy looks more like 6 months preggos. I would personally prefer to fly before 36weeks since mum claims that she usually gives birth before her due date and that it can be genetics. Plan B which might be going to US but passport is with UKVI ...argghhh!

Lexusgs430:
And my point was, that priority eligibility criteria was ignored by others and they were issued a settlement visa (all applicants confirmed on this thread). But that is by the bye.........

Let's assume your application is successful and you give birth to baby in Nigeria, how do you intend to travel with baby, considering the fact that your settlement visa has a restricted timeframe for usage (say it expires about 3 weeks after issue)?


My point raising this issues, are just to have to you think ahead, incase it's required.....

OMG! I feel like crying.I didnt read this thread well to see that others ignored the eligibility criteria.

Totally forgot about the visa time frame for entry and the BRP stuff. I have to think of serious Plan B and C sef. Thank you very much for putting things in perspective. I pray i get my visa within 2 weeks and baby continue cooking so i can run away asap.

Lexusgs430:
Did you apply as an individual or with the unborn child? Assuming you solely applied, visa gets issued and you give birth in Nigeria. Do you intend leaving baby behind?
You now see my dimensions?
NB: People have applied for settlement visas on the back of visa refusals to the USA & UK.......

I applied as an individual though i included my Pregnancy US report as part of evidence of genuine relationship. If i give birth in Nigeria(hopeful get the visa), i will wait for baby's British passport (hubby is british)to come out before relocating. I meant that i wasnt eligible to use the priority service because of previous refusal as per the priority service eligibility criteria.

Lexusgs430:
You simply have to wait and keep your fingers crossed. Have a Plan B (just incase). And if you give birth in Nigeria, the dimensions of your application changes. Whew.....................
We emphasise the importance of priority applications, for such sensitive deadlines....
Hopefully it would be issued in good time and the airline would be willing to transport you.....
NB: Well, not unless you have a private jet.......

Biko ohhh, please how will having a child in Nigeria change the dimension of my application? I couldnt do priority because of transit visa refusal by Germany 5 years ago

Lexusgs430:
Normal application or priority application? Not straightforward simply means, give us more time. Does not point into any direction, either positive or negative response...............

Hello Lexusgs430,
It is Non-priority, biometrics done on the 16th of February.Thanks

richdopeboi:
Thanks a lot waiting period is long can my sponsor mp do anything @ lexusgs430?

Hello Richdopeboi,
Any news from them? I just got the " the application not straightforward" email from them. On googling the outcomes after such email; mixed outcomes....argghhh!
House, please any insight? I am 34 weeks pregnant and planned to travel and deliver in UK. God please oh

EvaMD:
I don't understand, does having a refusal have anything to do with the type of application, I ask this cos I also has a refusal from UK about 4 years ago with m passport impounded sef, and I want to do a priority visa as well. gurus.. @lexusgs430 and everyone please answer me ohh

Hello EvaMD,
There is eligibility criteria to use the priority service on TLS website. I even wrote to the UKVI through the email form before submitting my application regarding my visa refusal history and they advised me not to bother buying the priority service. Your own case might be different though.

Hello Richdopeboi,
We are in similar situation, i submitted my online application on 14th February, biometrics on the 16th ( Abuja TLS) . I have requested for updates through the email form and response is always the generic "still under progress" or so. I am beyond anxious and tired of waiting...wish i did the priority in as much as i had a transit visa refusal from Germany 5 years ago.
