We submited our applicatn 29th August,my wife as principal applicant while me and our baby as dependant,up till now no feedback,status hasn't changed,and school starts 26 September,what could be the issue,we all have travel history to the UK.
Any advice will be highly appreciated

Edwin

I also submitted on d 29th of August,when I called Dem on Tuesday I was told dey r just processing applications submitted on d 25th n dat it will soon be d turn 4 applications submitted on 29th. I also told Dem abt d deadline wich was formally next week Monday(26th),I was advised 2 ask 4 extension 4RM my school n thank God dey've extended my deadline to 3rd.n I'm sure if I dn't get my visa dis week,den it will surely b next week.

Whew

Finally my deadline has finally been moved to 3rd of October by d school authorities(and updated @ d embassy).

Thanks carfreak n sir_lipton.

carfreak:
Guys,

Miss me, Well urs sincerely has been having a running battle trying to get paid before taking off. So i actually took gbaby87's agent and she's getting me a one way ticket to u know where via Emirates.I leave sat night. Its cheaper and i'm flying them for a change from Virgin.

Te-Amo, have a little faith, if u look at the calendar, there's only one working day left for applications to have been sent, which was the 26th because 29th was a bank holiday in the UK, 30th and 31st were public holidays in Nigeria. U may just get it.

This is what i advise u do, call your school. enough of this mail thing. Most times, if i send a mail and i dont get a response with 48hrs, i call. It creates a personal rapport and connotes seriousness. Call your school and speak with the international student officer asking for an extension. if they can, they should also send a mail to the consulate.

Again on Friday, call the call centre and see what they say. it aint over till the fat lady sings .

Dat was quite funny,thanks 4 ur advice i will surely buzz dem 2day

[quote author=Sir_Lipton link=topic=331618.msg9187206#msg9187206 date=1316553715]Lmaooo Te- Amo, they're not serious . my Friend submitted on the 8th of this month and got his on the 16th. He lives in Warri so he couldnt pick it up till Monday ( which was yesterday). And he got it. I put in my application exactly a week ago from today and I'm sure it's almost ready. My other friend went to the collection centre today and said it was almost empty, The number of applications are dropping so, calm down. You may just get it before the week runs out. All you need is faith.[/quote]@Sir_Lipton,thanks i really appreciate ur reply.

4 u all 2 know,i called d visa inquiries line today n i was told "we are currently working on visa applications submitted on the 25th of last month".

I asked her about mine which has been submitted since 29th n she told me i have to call back next week!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And the latest date i could start d course is next week monday,i sent a mail 2 d school informing dem abt d prob @ hand (i was even asking dem for an extension of deadline) n no replyyyyyy .

I'm so confused rite now

Do u guys tink dey would have gone through mine n issued d visa b4 nxt week??

Congrats @carfreak,@batu2sai.

You guys,lyk how many working days was your visa processed cos i will lyk 2 know if der's still hope me getting a visa dis year cos my deadline is fast approaching,just one week 2 go n i applied on d 29th wich makes it 10 working days 2day(not sure how dey calculate der wrking days ish).

10 working days n still counting 

26th September is my resumption date deadline unless I'm deferring  till next year.

I've already packed my bags n I'm GOOD TO GO with a very HIGH MORALE( well,only if i get my visa on time  )

It is well my people 

@princedm, seriously assuming he used one i would have gone to meet d agent since i saw his visa but dis guy did not use anybody @ all.

I was even among d group of frnds dat directed him on how 2 fill d form.

sanol:
i apply on the 25th of August i ve not hear any thing from them, pls i need help

25th of August n ur already complaining. I know how it feels my brother but d tin is dat a frnd of mine applied 19th of August n he has not heard any tin 2.

So ur own na small thing. I applied 29th of August and by God's grace 19th-21th of dis month i know der will b good news.

Don't stress urself 2 much jare just pray dat der will b divine intervention from watever God u serve just lyk my frnd.

I've already started packing my bags cos i must get der b4 26th unless my course will b deferred to next yr September.

Big Phil:
@skii and justwise,
When I read your message I knew it was serious business and that is a question to be asked because it is the reason for going thru this visa application stress. Justwise I am of the opinion that you make this whole explanation so that we don't lose focus on d reason for UK postgrad with part time job and other hustle.

A friend who applied on d 9th Aug is in the air now abroad Virgin air and is with cash of 1260GBP, 46kg free load and a hand bag, He took of 10.20am to LHR. Those who applied btw 15th Aug-19 Aug be expectant next week for Good news.

@Te amo, How is dat possible seems its a miracle.

alaki:
@ Teamo. That s really a miracle. Do u know if the person had been to UK before. I hope mine will come out like that too. I have finally submitted my application today @ d Abuja office. Prayer mode activated

I could not believe it myself wen i saw it and no,he has not been der b4 and even if u've been der i dn't tink it works day way.
After checking ukba website,dey wrote 1% of it ever happening within 5 working days.

I just submitted mine too,last week Monday n he submitted his on Thursday and he has gotten his own while i'm still waiting for mine.

All i know is that,IT IS WELL,

I can't believe dis.

A frnd of mine applied for his visa last week thursday (as in 1st of September) n his visa has just been granted.

He collected his package ysterday, n it has been stamped and he's ready 2 fly.

Dis is f**** unbelievable. Its as if my eyes are deceiving me right now n his school has nt even resumed yet till ending of dis month.

gbaby87:
All I said is not to take the people here for granted, is all I said. Anyway I'll stop

Who told u i was taking him for granted. I was just in a hurry n blieve me i appreciate every advise he gives in dis forum.

And all i'm telling u is to mind your business because u have to understand how someone feels wen ones visa is refused n  tym is not on your side.

i understand all wat u were trying 2 say but u shld neva have said it sucks 4 me cos dat shows ow heartless u r.

shekanah.

I've got no beef wit anybody,

Answer a fool according 2 his/her foolishness n she/he will tink she/he's wise.
Dat's just d case here.

Don't worry continue talking wen ur battery is low,u will shut up.

gbaby87:
@ Te amo, I wonder if its the same mouth you use to praise God and roll out prayers that you used to tell me to quote: 'shut the bleep up',either way you should wash them both! be sure that you want to enter a verbal battle with me before you reply because you will not win, I assure you.

I already know your type n blieve me its only a fool dat will enter any silly verbal battle or watever u call it.

Abt my mouth,go check your Bible very well. Its d same mouth Jesus used in rebuking the fools lyk u he also used in praising d wise.

Can ur mental capability take dat?

Abeg,LOG OFF jaree, 

gbaby87:
Na wa o!@Te amo, you do realize justwise is a person right? His heartbeat is not on nairaland o! Demanding answers and attention, you need to calm down, if you're in a hurry, sucks for you, next time don't do naija time for your visa! Its a fine thing this forum don't tire the people that make it function by not being considerate, I'm just saying

@Gbaby87,can u pls shut d f*** up.

I thank God justwise is not lyk u.

@justwise,thanks 4 all your advise and all,may Baba Jesus continue to bless n strengthen u n may u never encounter any type of problem dat has no solution IJN.

@Gbaby87,it will b better if your lips r sealed .
pshewwwwwwwww

Justwise,Pls answer me do u tink i should go ahead cos i dn't want any disappointment again.
