This is easy peasy...
Tell her you want to change her phone to 17. Give her an XR to be using while the dealer arranges the 17.
Ensure you get back whatever you can without raising a finger, then bring up the chats and move on.

My cousin boarded Libra from Stadium road . It was a night trip.. she arrived Jibowu, Lagos at about 9am.
Paid for 1 hour at the hotel upstairs in Young Shall grow park where she had her bathe and changed her clothes.
Then off to VFS Ikeja for her biometrics which was scheduled for 2:30pm

She finished the biometrics, returned to Jibowu park and joined Libra back to Port Harcourt that night.

She got the visa and is here in the UK with me.
Will stay till after Christmas

Hello house,
I’m planning to apply next week for a UK visiting visa to attend my OSCE exams. I’m based in Port Harcourt, and I was told that applicants here pay an extra £150 as visa processing fee at the VFS centre.

I’m considering travelling to Lagos to process my application instead, but I’m not sure if the same extra charge applies there too.

Please, does anyone know if the Lagos visa centre also collects an additional processing fee? And if yes, how much exactly?

I’ll really appreciate feedback from anyone who has recently applied from Lagos or Port Harcourt.

Thanks in advance. 🙏
Use the VFS at Opebi, Ikeja.
Select 12,1pm as your preferred time.

Enter libra from benjack stadium road to jibowu, Lagos.

There are hotels at the jibowu park where you can sleep. Next morning, navigate your way to vfs ikeja. Zero charge.

Vfs, presidential hotel offers only premium. Hence, the additional charge.

Hello everyone, permit me to interrupt your conversation with my questions.

For someone (male) coming to London this December, and wants to get busy with work, what would you suggest for him?

What do's and dont's would you share with him?

Are there any skills/certifications needed to get a warehouse or factory job?

How to go about the certifications needed for construction and security jobs?

TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 9 by xx1v: 11:35am On Sep 21, 2025
Thanks for sharing.
Hope someone won't lack words to say.

CSSPATRICK:
A quick one for you guys before I forget.

Starting from my experience from Nigeria. I would advise that on no account should anyone of you travel by road to the airport on your departure date, except for those residing in cities close to international airport location where they are scheduled to fly out from. You may want to travel to your departure designation latest, a day before or fly locally to avoid missing your flight. I missed my original flight departure schedule for 17th Sept. I left Anambra by 7am and got to MMIA by 10pm, of which boarding closes 9pm. Then I had to reschedule at an extra cost for the next day.
You may also want to look at the list of prohibited items if you don't want your stuff to be seized and be confiscated at the airport.

Please also be prepared to face further scrutiny while entering UK, even after completing UK student visa interview. I know that those of us that were interviewed before approving their visa application may think that the game is over as for visa interview. You may be stunned by what you will meet at the entry point. This time, it looks more like interrogation instead. Though I am not sure this applies to everyone.
So, let's share our entry point experiences so we can understand the pattern.

You may also avoid too much load as the way to your destination may involve a lot of transloading and multiple transport connections and exchanges. This can add more stress to you especially after a long flight.

I hope this will be helpful to those of us who will be traveling afterwards
Best of luck.

What airline did you use?

PHC is the closest to me. Otherwise,I'll pack my kaya to Lagos. That journey is so stressful.
If you have used PHC, please share the airline and your experience.

Hello I lived in uk for 2 years because of my masters study in 2020-2022 and I also worked In uk during that time so when they asked for NI number I had it and imputed it , I just got married and my hubby has been there since October 2024 . I am doing my visa application under dependent as my hubby is on full PhD scholarship but to my greatest surprise they didn’t ask me for POF amongst my mandatory document only the normal things they normally ask dependant couples that want to come to uk.
Even though they didn’t ask for it should I still submit it. Please I need answers as soon as possible

for number 1, I didnt upload my birth certificate, could that be the reason??
RWP 6.1
RWP 6.2

When did you receive the mail? When will your 10 working days expire?
You should be done by the 5th day.

I can help you out.
Provide a channel we can talk.
I'll tag you to an email address.


For the RWP 6.1, you need a Police Clearance certificate.
Possap (dot) gov (dot) ng
> Get started.
> Select Police Clearance certificate
Fill all details.
Select the police station in your state.
Fill it by 1,2am, so by 7,8,9am, you'll get an invite. If the invite doesn't come till 12, head to the station to get it done. You'll pay about 30k onsite and tip not more than 20k.

Sheezybobby:
Am in this position right now, I've been waiting for thei r email, my Uni enrolment begins on 15th of Sept. I've applied for visa since 30th of July, I've even done paid enquiry, I was told to keep expecting it, I messaged home office directly using their sheffield.student email address, I was told that they can only escalate it after 12 weeks.

Imagine this people. Sometimes I wonder how many days it take to make a decision. I actually understand that if you get your visa earlier, your case is being handled by junior caseworker but those ukvi tend to send "unable to make a decision" to.... always have their case handled by senior caseworker for reviewing.

This people didn't even look my side at all... I just feel lost right now. I don check reddit tire, still pple wey dey wait plenty small.

I even contact my bank to ask if ukvi has reached out to them, bank staff told me they haven't received any message from ukvi concerning my statement. Just imagine since more than 30 days ago.

I pray God help me out IJN and everybody in this kind of scenario as me IJN
