yettidear:Do you have any work experience in the Telecoms sector? What do you stand to gain from studying Telecommunications in the UK? While you are at liberty to do what is referred to as SWITCHING, you must have shown an appreciable level of consistency with your career to give validity of reasons for wanting to switch. In the UK, there is what is called the Continuing Professional Development (CPD), that shows a consistency of your career path. With a background degree in Industrial Engineering, I would suppose, pursuing a Masters in any industrial related engineering sector should prove very convincing to the ECO. However, I would be rather harsh on you here, as you seem not decided on knowing what you want to do, and you would rather seek that anonymous individuals should make-up your mind for you. All the best. |

Forget about how they call it; "rights of appeal" and consider what nature of rights they are; i don't see that as a right because, you can do absolutely nothing even if you suffered miscarriage of justice. If you think it's a right, then, why can't a victim of ECO demand it, can't you see that they decide who to give the rights to and who to deny it? There's a huge difference between Demand and Request, so, this is not a right, but a privilege. Or, haven't you heard of cases whereby an applicant wont his appeal by proving the authenticity of the purpose of application, but still, it was ruled that he shouldn't be given a visa? It's honourable to say goodnight to a dear one like you. [size=20pt]Goodnight all!!!!!!!!!!![/size] |

vvvjustice: Until the recent visa shake-up that took place in July 2008, and as long as their hands were tied by the Human Rights law, they don't reserve nada rights. They sold themselves short, they always do , do you know how many people they are trying to deport but can't due to the courts following the law to a tee? Why do you think they bribe foreign criminals or illegal immigrants to go home over and over again? Some foreign criminals and illegal immigrants that collected the bribe and went home, are back in the country and the authorities concerned are aware of this, because their is no law to prevent this happening. |

@Busy_body, Long time! hope you're enjoying the soap opera? @yettidear, Deciding on the course you want is entirely up to you. Both areas (oil and gas; Telecomms) have great potentials in Nigeria but you have to buttress this point when applying. Forget those crap about career path, your reasons for doing a masters in telecomms could be becos you recognise the enormous potential and growth opportunities in the telecomms sector and since your first degree is in a different field, you know doing a masters in telecoms will place you in good position to benefit from the growth in the sector (as simple as abc) and if you decide on Pet. Eng I guess the ECO wont have any qualms with that as well. Best wishes (you still have to make the choice yourself) |

LondonCool: ##I agree with the fact they are versed with Naija and the likes. I remember one of my girl's experience in Gatwick where she was asked how she could be a Cousin to an Ibo man. She was shocked. ### They are not that educated at all. Most are just school certificate holders, A levels. Only their managers really get qualification. How could you explain why ECO do say first degree in Accountancy is NOT related to Msc in International Finance. ! |

LondonCool: I reiterate that, it is how the account is run that matters. Of course, with a nil balance/negative balance, the nature of the job is highly relevent too. A nil balance, when you are going to retire in a few months, or when you no longer have a job or if your account is not properly run in the six months prior to application would be thrown out. LondonCool: They already do, except I am special, I always knew it ![]() Ever since the Immigration, Asylum and Nationality Act 2006 abolished the rights of appeal in all non-family immigration cases, the only recourse that visa applicants from Katmandu to Kutuwenji had, was the right of appeal on grounds of human rights or race discrimination. |

@tolapo, From the foregoing,it is clear that you can make an application to join your husband by fulfilling the requirements in para 76 of the immigration rules.In addition,your husband uncle CANNOT sponsor you as decided in a recent case law(PA (Student’s family: third-party support?) Bangladesh [2008] UKAIT 00016)(The maintenance requirements of para 76 of the Immigration Rules are not met by the provision of maintenance by a third party.). Your husband can as well take up an employment (max 20 hrs per week) and your existing personal savings to enable you have a case/ground for a successful application. Wish you the best. |

@Feu Do you have any work experience in the Telecoms sector? What do you stand to gain from studying Telecommunications in the UK? Thanks, i was actually more concerned by the ECO boys on the conditional stuff,i sent a mail to the school & they promised to send me the unconditional letter but that they just wanted me to know that i will be taking some modules than some of my colleagues. i was not going to let anonymous ppl make decision for me,NEVER. i knew i could go for any of the two (I wanted Pet. Eng. all my life),but i was just concerned abt the conditions that was given for Petroleum Eng & the ECO boys. I dont have experience in Telecoms but i have for Pet. Eng. Thanks for the advice! ![]() @IncaGold @yettidear, Thanks for the advice! i really loved it.just like i have said to Feu,i wanted Pet. Eng. but was skeptical abt the conditions given. Cheers! ![]() |

Quote from: pharuk on June 18, 2008, 04:32 PM hi everyone, all protocols observed, please i would be applying for a visa next month, BankPHB is sponsoring it or would i say my mum took a loan from them since the bank is into education loan, am paying full tuition fee and accomodation for 40 weeks, is there anything paramount i shld add to make it a sucess story? @everyone Hi guys,came to this forum to get info for a cousin of mine that is planning to go for his Msc. He wants to use my Dad's acct. (who is his Uncle) & he is planning to get this loan thing to pay atleast half of his fees. Does he need to state that the bank is helping out?if so what should he add to his application on this issue. Thanks guys! |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by tolapo: 9:51am On Aug 07, 2008 |
Millions of thanks to various response to my issue, the conclusion now is that my hubby should get a job while i wait for now in order to prepare himself well before i put in the application. i believe before then solid preparation will be on ground before the application, WHICH I WILL STILL POST TO NAIRALAND BEFORE SUBMISSION Once again thanks to various contributors . GOD BLESS |

Nice work here and its really nice to know nijas can be there for one another.I need advice on my situation: I applied for student visa to Knightbridge College to do ACCA as i already have HND Upper Credit Accounting and one of my lectures advice that i should concentrate on PROFESSIONAL last year and was returned claiming that my wasc certificate is forged and due to ignorance,i never appeal and now i want to join my spouse who is a student as his dependant and am worried that hope the last case will not affect my chances.I currently work as an account officer in a manufacturing company in Abuja and has some little savings to show that i can survive there. WHAT DO YOU ADVICE ON HOW TO GO ABOUT IT |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by brownbonno(m): 7:39pm On Aug 07, 2008 |
@lopelope, All EC cases are handle on its individual merit.Since you are economical with your information,i will advice you to go through Tolapo case which is similar to your situation. Wish you the best. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by peter2010(m): 7:40pm On Aug 07, 2008 |
My brother was refused an entry clearance to UK at Abuja in July 2008 and I want him to reapply to Lagos High Commission by next week. The reason why they refused him wasn't genuine, they said they are in doubt if he will come back after the conclusion of his education because he doesn't have tie back home and prospect. They didn't complain about any other thing apart from that. I want house to advice me on which way to follow on his reapplication please. It is very urgent because the school is to resume in september. THANKS |

Re: General UK Visa Enquiries by Busybody2(f): 1:49am On Aug 08, 2008 |
peter2010: Sorry I did not make myself clear enough. I wanted to find out if it was a first degree or a master degree course that he got turned down for, because they are no longer allowed to use those reasons anymore due to the fact that graduates are now eligible to stay behind to apply for a two year work permit which can later be changed into the Tier 1 thingy, which in turn can be used as a passport to ILR after an aggregate period of 5 years starting from . . . |
