My dependents (husband and daughter) have biometrics this morning, we didn't upload wedding/family pictures, should I be worried.?
every other document was uploaded, including marriage cert and consent forms/letter just the pictures... I got my own visa last week.

Is not necessary. Applied for my hubby with only marriage certificate and his visa was approved. If all other documents are in place, then you are good to go.

michellez:
Same here, link up?

GCU connect. I have sent u a mail.

Hello Everyone & Good Morning.

Please I have a few questions and I would appreciate responses to them.

1) Can a pregnant woman apply for study visa in the Uk? Tho I read it’s not a breach of your tier 4 visa but my understanding of that is that it’s not a breach if you already have the visa and got pregnant so my question still remains can a pregnant woman apply?

2) The proof of funds ie Balance for school fees and maintenance fee, how do you calculate the Naira equivalent? Is it black market rate or the rate of the bank in which I intend to use the statement from or CBN official rate?

Please I will be looking out for responses. Thanks so much.

1) Don't have much knowledge about this.

2) Is better you use the black market rate to build the account because of fluctuation of naira. But the embassy will use Oanda rate of the day of your visa application submission to calculate for you.

Good Morning to you all,
My University certificate is laminated. Can't risk the delamination process because of defacement of this document and inability to quickly get a replacement. Please what are my options

Please I need urgent response.


Thank you.

U will be using a soft copy all through the process till u get to UK.

oluwaloseyi2009:

U don't need a police character certificate except on some specific courses. No need for CV, employment letter or payslip for ur uk student visa application. Just your statement of account.

maintainG:
Please o, who knows how I can pay for the priority appointment?
It’s rejecting my local bank card.

Use a dorm card.

2. That is legally wrong and will not work

Sole custody is a starting point

Thanks @justwise. We will start with that.

LagosismyHome:
She needs court documents stating she has sole custody and other parents not in child's life. That might help

Thank you so much @Lagosismyhome.

Please one more question.
Previously they applied for visa last 2 years and used the father"s details and the visas were refused because she couldn't provide the father's consent. Please advise if this current application with sole custody order will be affected by their previous application that was refused?

justwise:
.

His immigration status in the UK will likely have an effect on there application, there is no way to proof that he is not in communication with his family back in Nigeria, this could be seen as a way of bringing his family to join him .

Your aunt will need letter of consent from him to travel with those kids.

2. Stand for them as for?

@justwise, thanks for your reply.

2.) If her current husband can give consent for her son.

Or is it better she get a sole custody order for her son?

Good morning NL family,

Please my aunt is about to apply for visa for herslf and her son. But we are so confused on how to go about it. My aunt was once married but her husband abandoned her and left for Uk for like 9 years now. He no longer cares for his family and no communication with the family. We got information from the cousin that he is staying in UK as an illegal immigrant.

Our question now is:
1) If we should fill his details as my aunt husband and father to her son. She has been the only one catering for her son for 9 years now.

2)Will filling his details on their application affect their chances of getting a visa based on his immigration status. Please what can she do about this.

Ps: my aunt was later in a relationship with another man for a year now. Can he stand for them?

@mimilyrics @Lagosismyhome @ Justwise and all the gurus in the house.

Track it on dhl with ur waybill number

When I applied for my visa, I thoughrt I will still be in Lagos when I will receive collection mail. I travelled out of Lagos before even the decision mail. So I paid for post courier service. Tlscontact confirmed it and said the will process it after d passport is returned to them.

I received decision mail 21st
Collection mail 30th.
When I yracked from tlscontact app, it stated that I have received the passport which I have not.

No further email from Tls nor dhl or a yext or call. I dont even have the dhl tracking code.

Am kind of worried.

seekdel:
Please run quickly to TLS on Monday to complain.

thanks. I dont live in Lagos and I paid for express courier service. Should that be the reason?

Good day,

I track my passport and it state " travel document returned to the owner" but am yet to receive my passport. Pls what do u advise I do?

Decision mail by 11:52am today.

Please how much is ihs fees for dependant. Am having a different amount from mine. I got $977 for my dependant. Please is this right? Should I go ahead and pay?

Thanks

Cyberknight:
You can apply for him at any point, as long as you have the stipulated maintenance amount held in the stipulated manner.

Thanks for this information.

mimilyrics:
It's possible but why, if I may ask? Why not wait till January for your spouse to apply with your son?

No, though you might need an enrolment letter from your school to support your spouse's application.

Thanks @mimilyrics for your continous support and swift response.

I applied for myself and my spouse and planned on my son staying back to round up his nursery school by next year. But we just changed our mind after our application and we are deciding on applying for him by January.

If I have received my visa, and am still in Nigeria, can I apply for him or I have to travel first?

Thanks.

Good day everyone,

Can I apply for visa for myself and my spouse and later apply for my son by January. Is this possible.

Secondly, do I need to update my school by January in regards to my CAS to apply for him.

Please your advise is needed. Is kind of urgent.

Thanks.

spotgetj:
The day u submitted your application online.

@spotgetj thanks.

Good day everyone.

When applying for a visa, which date of exchange rate is been used? Last day on your account statement or the day a decision is being made? Please I need clarifications. Thanks

Bourne007:
No letter of approval is required as long as both names clearly show on statement

Thanks for this information.

Just a quick one fam.
Am using a joint account for Visa application for myself, my husband and son. My husband and I are the only signatories to the account. Do we still need to write a letter of approval for each other as part of the visa application backing up our joint account?
Thanks.

mimilyrics:
No, it wont't.

Thank you for your prompt response always. �

Hey guys, I got CAS for one of the university I applied for Sept intake but I change my mind and prefers the second uni and also Jan intake not sept. Please will this affect my visa when I eventually apply for Jan intake or what do u advise?

Who is going to GCU?

Adeyemoab:
which of them doesn't require deposit?

Some programmes at University of Glasgow e.g Global Health.

mimilyrics:
If you're named on the account as an account holder, yes you can.
Just curious though, why would you be using a joint account with your friend? Why not your own account? You don't have to answer if you don't want to.

If your school doesn't insist on any deposit before CAS, it wouldn't affect your visa application. Your school will only include your full tuition fee on your CAS and you'd have to show that you have held the funds in the stipulated manner.

Thanks for the reply.

I dont have up to the expected amount in my personal account. Am considering using both the joint accoint statement and my personal account statement to apply for my visa. I hope this will work.
