Vianey23:
Since 25th of November. This is not fair at all. Just an empty NSF since on the 12th of December and nothing else. It's 6 weeks already since my biometrics (27 working days).

Have you escalated?

Rimdans:
Hi everyone, please kindly advise
I just saw this in my email. Can I call again on Monday or Tuesday because my last date of resumption is 14th of January

You’ll probably keep receiving generic responses until a decision is made, so take it easy, relax, and go about your daily activities as usual.

ogify1:
Now their payment processor said they’re yet to receive the funds, had to send the session ID today for them to trace it. Has anyone experienced this before? Pls help if you’ve experienced this before!

Have you tried to contact your local bank?

Two 13th of Nov. VISA alert, it’s like they don attend to Nov. ppl.
Make dem do quick, the wait is quite frustrating.

Vianey23:
Resumption: January 27th
Enrollment: February 3rd
Last date of enrollment: Feb 17th

There is still time before resumption.
My school induction is January 6th and lecturer go start on the 13th.
Bio on 5th, got NSF on the 24th and I am still waiting.

Vianey23:
Since 25th of November, nothing at all except an empty NSF...school go soon resume. I don't know what to think anymore.
God abeg 🤦
Even people that did biometrics last week, got visas today. I don't understand how this people operate. Very unprofessional.

It will come this week, you study gap is less than 10yrs right?

Vianey23:
When was your own biometrics?

5th of december

xzeal10:
I have escalated as at 13th December. Im told i will be contacted within 15 working days and yes I have a visa refusal April 2024.

In most cases, they delay ppl with previous VISA refusal.
I had one refusal too.
We dey on God and they will get back to you this week since it makes 15working days.

xzeal10:
I did escalate. did a paid call on the 4th of December and was told to hold on for another 15 working days from the date I received nsf which 19th December was the last day. I was also told my application was received on the 28th of Novermber same day I got empty nsf which was suppose to be the 15days from the day of biometrics at TLS been 7th November. delay was based on the switch from TLS to VFS

Patiently waiting...
On God!

How far?
Any news from this ppl, have you escalated now and perhaps do you have any visa refusal?

ogify1:
The holiday messed things up cuz I made the payment on 24th which is Wednesday…

Well, you can just relax and let it sink in on Monday.
Fly wire surely send acknowledgment email for payment in two working days.
If you don’t hear from them on Monday, contact your bank to be sure the payment is went through. Afterwards, you contact fly wire.
No need to panic.

ogify1:
I got this mail now. I’ve sent the payment since 24th, now when I track it’s showing cancelled. I guess the holiday messed things up

Since they claimed they didn’t get the payment, the next option is to contact your bank for refund.
I think the payment didn’t go through, cos they can’t receive the payment and claimed they didn’t.
You include your student ID in the reference while making the payment

alozieanselm202:
You mean those with previous refusals won't get after 15 working days?

Lol, they usually delay people with refusal.
In most cases, it always exceed the first 15working days but get back to them on or before the 6th week.
Do you have any refusal?
I had a canada refusal, did my bio on 5th and got an NSF on the 24. so I just have to wait for the next 15 working days and hopefully they get back to me.

LilChamp:
I don't have any previous Visa Refusal.
I received another nsf mail to show proof of what I have been doing since my graduation 2015.

The following day, I uploaded appointment letter, reference letter and NYSC certificate.

Haven't heard anything since then.

Since you have no refusal, they will get back to you within 15 working days from when you sent the additional documents.

Josmila:
Congratulations to everyone who have just gotten their success emails. I tap into them in advance.

What would be the ideal representation for a study gap of over 10 years please? A CV? A write up of my work history with dates? What else please? I just want to prepare ahead for it

Please note that I've been working all these times

Reference letter from the companies and maybe employment letter.
If like, add an explanation addressing the study gap.

Pearlcom:
My bio was 2nd Dec. Got nsf on the 3rd, since then nothing. It's now looking like they pack some people's application and put in the store or folder and keep. Because if you need some more documents, why can't you reach out immediately or after few days to demand? Ah, na wa

Since the last NSF email received was on the 3rd and it’s already 15 working days already.
I suggest you to a paid call or email and request for an escalation directly.

LilChamp:
Thanks alot. Will surely do that if I don't hear anything by Friday.

How far Lilchamp?
What’s the update after the paid email?
Also, do you have any previous visa refusal?

TreasureTayo:

Pearlcom:
We the nsf team, I wish us Goodluck and good news in the few working days of this week o. I also wish every other applicants success. My nsf mail is 15 working days today. Hoping to hear something positive from them. I am going to renew my POF today 😌 for the 3rd month

Hold on @pearlcom, do you mean your VISA application is going to 3 month now?

Abeg, when was your bio?

Vianey23:
I saw someone on telegram. Her bio was in 14 October. She's yet to get VISA.

You don’t mean it…. there is fire on the mountain.
How come? what did she do?

I'm curious to know if anyone who applied for their visa in October is still waiting for a decision from UKVI.

LilChamp:
I did my Biometrics on the 29th Nov at Ikeja.
Received empty NFS mail on the 30th Nov.

Till now no feedback on Visa..
Can't even sleep well these days

I actually feel you too, I got up everyday with the hope of waking up to that good news email.

This friday will make it 15 working days, so you should do a paid email on that day if you hear nothing from them.

Cryptodon:
Visa alert mail just dropped.

Awaiting collection mail soon I suppose.

Bradford here we go

Congratulations!!!!
when and where was the location of your biometric?

TreasureTayo:
Nope. Same as Ikeja. Location really doesn’t matter here.

wetin you reason come dey happen.

I am starting to feel that those people that has their delay in their VISA approval are people that did their bio in VI.
