Buy a ticket and go to the airport in readiness to fly to the UK!

i cant buy ticket when i haven't gotten the visa

lolly pop:

i cant buy ticket when i haven't gotten the visa

Then go to Tin Can Island and get into a cargo bound for the UK!

Crackles,

Stop crackling this girl up.

Poster, to be on the safe side, it's best to defer your admission to a later date as consular officers are often known to refuse visas on the grounds that
"the course you are going for has already commenced" etc. etc.

the prog won't be starting till middle of April.

you are so lucky, send an email to the embassy email or better still call the Uk embassy in Nigeria.am sure they will have served them a copy of the letter you got.
The other guys were just joiking with you, you are as good as on your way to the UK
Congratulations

thanks for the advice.i would just call cos my Representative already sent an email to them

thanks for your contribution

I wont congratulate you until you you are able 'sail through the storm on the river' at the embassy. We have seen cases of counter appeal such that an appeal has already been allowed (in favour of the appellant) and a new case cropped up. The appeal was allowed but instead of calling the appellant to come for the visa, he was given a letter where it was mentioned that the visa section has reviewed the 'allowed appeal' and a fresh appeal form was enclosed along side a new refusal notice. The new refusal notice showed that the application was retrieved and treated as a fresh application and it was NOW alleged that the appellant has a case to answer on one of the documents used in support of the application. There are many more of these cases we have received at our legal department but to cut it short, it is not over until it is over!

You can write visa.lagos@fco.gov.uk for updates about your appeal. But make sure you always pray for a divine favour.

The uk is really hard to go to but not impossible. Were u able to show them that u had a supporter living here in the uk? The supporter is the person who is going to prove that they have enough money to support u. I was denied 2 times before traveling aboard to the uk and after my family members showed they had enough to support me i was approved for the student visa.
