If you are a single mother who wishes to get a Nigerian International passport and travel with your child abroad, This are the steps to take
Do not be scared especially when you do not have the same last name as your child.
The major requirements are now the child birth certificate, child NIN, one of the parents International passport, consent letter from one of the parents, Father's NIN or International passport or any official identification is mandatory.... mother's home address, father's address, father's phone number....basic information sha.
In case the father of your child isn't willing to send his ID, you can simply get a sworn affidavit from a high Court stating how you alone is responsible for the child and other relevant information...
Please remember to have that sworn affidavit with you whenever you travel with your child especially when you do not have a consent letter from the father...nobody will allow you get on that plane with your child without any of this...especially when you have different last name. Even with the same surname self.
Also note the father of your child cannot travel outside the country with your child without your consent...even when they bear the same surname.
I hope this information helps, i got this information from a single mother who is a frequent traveller.

For further information, kindly visit the nearest immigration office.

Have a question that might have been asked and answered before - not sure.
Is it a red flag for a lady with her kids to apply for a UK student visa alone without the father?
The father has been away - like just left the home- for more than 4 years now without trace. Family members of the father are unwillingly to disclose is whereabout. Now the lady is moving on, going to the UK for studies with her 2 kids.

I guess my question is will this affect visa approval on grounds that the father did not give consent that the kids should travel.
But he has been missing for more than 4 years now.
If this would affect, what are the gurus here advice should be the solution to avoid visa being denied.

I will give any clarification if asked.

Good evening guys, please my sisters was given admission (Master of Data Analytics) University of Niagara Falls Canada. The previous student advisor was very good and patient with us and was carrying us along on how to go about with everything, but he was recently changed and my sister was given another student advisor. When we told the new student advisor that we are ready to make our tuition deposit, he insisted that the school won't give her LOA even if we make the payment this September, that we need to wait till January 2026 before making our deposit as that is when the school will be able to give her the LOA. We explained to him that Canadian Student visa processing time ranges from 2 - 4 months for Nigerians and with such timeframe that she might not be able to meet up as her program is starting April 2026, but he kept insisting that the school won't give her the LOA (Letter of Acceptance) even if she makes the deposit payment this month (September), that she will need to wait till January to get her LOA and the said new student advisor have refused to state the actual reason for this delay.

Please guys I want to know if there could be any reason for this delay.

Thank you.

.

The student advisor is right
If they will give you LOA, they will request for deposit under 6 weeks for PAL to be issued for your student permit. PAL for April 2026 has not been allocated which means you cannot be issued LOA for now.
Be patient and in the meanwhile convert your naira into dollar so that it does not devalue by the time you want to pay in January.

Good day all
Pls do eleyele or iyangonku police station in Ibadan issue police character certificate?

JMG12:
No, it doesn't have any effect on the visa; how your tuition was paid has no effect. Ensure you attach proof of payment.

What course did you apply for?

doublestar21:
please house, i never knew i could be this confused. i have HND in civil Engineering. i applied for masters degree in UK (construction project management) only for them to reply that they cant give me because i have HND

now they brought two options for me to choose between Msc project management or Bsc Hons (yr 2).
now i am really confused as rumor has it that project management doesnt worth it. and for me to go for civil Eng. i will need more funds. tuition fee is 16900 for Msc in project management, and 16900 for civil Eng. note 2yrs for civil Eng.

kindly advice me gurus in the house. thanks

I would suggest you apply to schools that take HND as their requirement if you want to retain your course, there are quite a number of them that do. Also look towards canada they have high prospects for civil engineering and also construction a graduate certificate course will be good.

Yes, but check Entry requirements for the schools you will apply to.

Johnhug66:
Please what is the fastest way to pay the deposit so as to get CAS asap? Is flywire as a platform reliable and fast?

The school will give you instructions on how to pay your deposit. But most schools use flywire and its also fast,takes 2-3 days and its drops in your school bank account.

KingDeity:
Good afternoon everyone. Please I have a question. I intend to start my 28days POF tomorrow, but I’m a bit confused because my conditional letter of offer states that I am eligible for scholarship up to £4000 depending on my result, but no definite amount was stated. How do I calculate the tuition for the POF? Should I subtract the amount from the tuition or I should just provide POF as if I didn’t put the £4000 in the picture?

Please I need answers, thanks

Send a mail to the school asking if you would be given the £4000 discount and for them to include it in your offer letter. Then you can calculate your POF minus the £4000.

TobyTreasure:
Please is there any university that's still accepting applications for September or October admission, my friend has just been served BREAKFAST by University of East Anglia after submitting POF. They said that he failed their CAS interview. Please we need help.

I would advise you apply for January intake, some schools have started giving out CAS for January intake.

Thoyesh:
Hello
Please is there any UK university with less than 10k masters in tuition for internationals please? I have sincerely searched on the internet and could not find one
Please help!!!!!

I don't think there is any uni less than 10k for MSc. but if you have a 2:1 you can get a 5k discount like Lincoln uni and some other uni for 2:1 students which may bring your tuition to about 10k.

It took me 7 weeks to get my CAS, Bolton is slow but i never regretted it cos there payment plan isn't bad

Wao.
They are really slow. Did you pay your deposit and they later asked you to upload your pof and TB test or you paid and uploaded the documents immediately?
I just got my offer uploaded on the portal after sending series of mails to them regarding inactive portal.
They are quite slow and i hope i can still meet up for September intake cos my pof will just start counting and the 28days will be towards ending of the month.
How do we connect?

badcommando:
Hello Everyone.
I am a BSc holder who is presently doing youth service. I want to apply for Masters in information technology in Anglia Ruskin university in England. Can I still meet up with all the processes for September admission intake or should I focus on January admission

Focus on January intake and you should start your application now because some schools has already started giving admissions and date for CAS deadline already stated on their portal.

BossFingy:

Hello,

BossFingy:

Thanks for the response. I later got a mail from them after forwarding a mail regarding the issue.
Have gotten the student ID number but am still waiting for the unconditional offer.

Hello, pls did you get a confirmation mail after applying to university of bolton like applicant ID? I only got a mail when i started the application stating my username. Am confused it looks like my application did not get submitted, as am yet to get an offer.

BossFingy:
Hello i got another offers in
University of Bolton=
Am just so confused about the one to follow up now.. how is life in bolton like, is the environment friendly or still expensive, are there higher chances of getting a job too..although the fees in bolton is a bit fair than that of Kingston, which should be more preferable,, ??

Is there anyone going to the university of bolton September intake?
Pls after submitting application did you get a mail quoting the reference no or applicant ID because I did not get any mail after making the application since June 21st, I only got a mail when i started the application stating my username and for me to continue the application.
I haven't gotten any mail from them.
I want to be sure my application was submitted because as it is now how do i send a mail to them without an applicant ID.

Clinical Exercise Physiology with specialization in cardiorespiratory physiology

Mindlog:
What do you intend studying for your Masters?

I have tried the skilled visa route, no positive reply yet maybe because my years of experience is not much. I have one year and half experience in physiology i.e nysc and internship, while I have 3 years experience as a caregiver.
I also want to use this masters program to up my skills in my sector as we have limited offer here in Nigeria.

Mindlog:
You will be better off, pushing for relocation via skilled work visa not studies as you are already skilled in a field that is under shortage, not limiting your search to the NHS.
