I really appreciate ur responses. I just did an amateur calculation;let's say I make £7 an hour,in 20Hrs I'll be making £140. Which means in one month,I'll get around £560. My MA study runs for one year. With that monthly wage,I can only make about £6720 and I still have a tuition fee debt of £6000 plus accommodation wahala.Hmmmm,it's looking almost impossible. although,my brother promised to pay £2000 before I leave naija.so technically I'm left with a £4000 debt plus accommodation issues. Abeg I need more views,observation and advice. Thanks

Hello everyone, new guy*, so basically I'm doing an exchange medical program me in uk and need tier 4.
1.I'm staying only 6 weeks , do I need the T.B test.
2. The account I'm using for proof of support is a family member's there but during the 28 days, it went below the requirement for a short while , the account is usually way above the amount and has regular income , should I still use it ?

OluDare01:

Our guru has spoken ... Such high quality advice ... Finances, spiritual , lies all fall under 214b which simply translates to lack of home ties.. @segunthebook listen to his advice at your cost ... Post your interview transcript so people that passed through the process or are actually in the United states can comment... My 1 cent

I tried to confirm if it's true, using OANDA on my phone. I checked £9,315 which is N2,084,241 and £5,800- N1,297,756

I want to ask you guys, if these are the real exchange result using OANDA? And if that's the amount bank(s) will also recognise.

I will be grateful if you guys can tell me the result of those prices are correct or not.

Thanks

. You might decide to block this post as you blocked the other one, but I'm preety sure you'll read my message. I'm off, enjoy your page and tell Mr Sean" not to expect 1 kobo from me.

OluDare01:
Rubbish.
I said it and I'd continue to say it, people like you are the reason why Nigeria refused to grow.
After gaining so much from the forum, is bleeping a way of giving back
Long hiss

fizzile:
So how about the Oanda currency converter page which will be printed and attached as stated? Atleast justwise mentioned it sometime ago that one can print the page for the day the statement of account was printed.

fizzile:
What am saying is if after 28days,I den print like the next day, u know there is a 31day window for you to apply for the visa. Does it then mean the VO will calculate based on the day u apply?

worry359:
We have said this many times.
Please read slowly and understand.

The visa officer will look at your statement [size=14pt]on the day that you apply.[/size]
They will use the conversion at the ONADA site on that day to calculate your funds.

fizzile:
Guys,please I have a question. It still has to do with this 28days counting period. If for instance on 1st of July I started counting my 28days counting at let's say 370 for a pound and had the require amount and let's say on 5th of July the rate increases to about 379 forcing the required amount to drop slightly and on the 25th or 26th day the rate drops to 368 thereby allowing you have the required for the 28days, will it be right to print your statement bearing in mind the amount has been in that account for the 28days needed and is in line with the exchange rate for that day. Please someone should help. How will it be calculated pls?

SirWellington:
I didn't answer cos it was an inconsequential question... taking precedence from how you approached the simple question I asked iot showed you has no idea what I was saying. As for betting odds... that's naive considering the basis on which I asked...come on. If you don't have an answer, just ignore.

SirWellington:
You didn't need to rant #same question over and over# if you didn't wanna answer kindly ignore. If I saw answers I wouldn't have asked. My question was as simple as A,B,C.... on a 50-50 basis...what are the chances? And not lessons on fate.

olenime:
I DID. I filled it all myself. I called some members here, walspring is my witness. I filled it myself correctly!

SirWellington:
What of someone that has a University degree, will he find a good job there?

OmoBendel24:
Just prove me wrong sha! I believe with little equivocation that the purpose for which the Malaysian visa was granted you wasn't for BUSINESS purposes (probably for visit or academic purpose), and if I'm in any way correct, therein lies the reason for your US visa refusal. You can't really be trusted to abide by the visa terms if granted! Good afternoon

Yababoy:
Thanks for the comment. Sounds logical but might mean that some people will have to add more money and start counting all over again. Something tells me to UKBA must have factored in something to avoid this volatility for applicants. Advise needed.

wendylicious:

Yababoy:
Hi peeps, please I need some clarifications from experienced gurus here and those that have recently applied for their visas.
I have deposited my maintenance fees in my account and I'm close to the stipulated 28 days now..however I'm a bit confused as the exchange rate had gone up from when I started counting the 28 days. My simple question is which exchange rate will be used by the UKBA. Will it be as at when I started counting or the rate as at when I'll be applying.

Fortissimo:
I left employment 7 months before my visa interview. I stated same on my ds160 and was also asked about it during my interview.
@all, take all generic advice you receive on NL carefully. We all have different circumstances. It's not one cap fits all.
Btw my reason was because I wanted to concentrate on my graduate school plans. For me, that shows a serious and extremely focused prospective student.
