M BAK HOME O, and i stil cnt bliv wt GOD has done 4 me! M ETERNALLY GRATEFUL TO HIM, especialy wen i remember d fact that sum1 once told me i wldnt b able 2 get a VISA witout d help / services of any AGENT. WELL, ERE I AM 2DAY, AND I AM UK BOUND WITHOUT EVER VISITING ANY AGENCY - and m thankin JUSTWISE, UMO77, FEMTOPSY, SCOBBY(guy, m stil waitin 4 dat news o - e too sure!

U ALL too out time 2 explain d little details 2 me, not mindin my persistent repeated questions (especialy JUSTWISE - GOS BLESS U O!), and offerin hope wen i was in despair!

To assist evry1, ere is a list o'd docs i submitted:

1. CERTIFICATE
2. VERIFICATION OF RESULT
3. NECO RESULT
4. GTB PERSONAL BANK STATEMENT
5. FIRST BANK BANK STATEMENT (My Mum's) along wit a REFERENCE LETTER FROM THE BANK (to prove SOURCE o'FUNDS)
6. SPONSOR LETTER
7. BIRTH CERTIFICATE

U dont have 2 apply d way i did, but i'l ALWAYS suggest dis option, as den dey'l not have any reason 2 question your RESULTS and the SOURCE of your funds! Best tin is to do wateva makes u sleep beta at nite - u wana jst apply wit the relevant docs, ok; bt if u wana put your mind at ease beyond any reasonable doubt, den show the source o'your docs and funds.

P.S: UMO77, i no try? Almost a month on LOW FUNDS, cos i no wan TAMPER with INVESTIGATED MONEYS! Anywaz, wana book my flight now sef - is ARIK OK?

Congratulations, am so happy 4 u. I want to believe any airline is OK, BTW my brother will be travelling 2moro morning on ARIK via 1 way ticket (he opted 4 dis because he's not coming back anytime soon & also to reduce the fare cos e no too get dole). I wish u all the best

Take it easy, just try and read meaning to the issues outlined in the refusal doc so that subsequent application can be packaged well without any issue.
BTW, It seem this is the first time I'm seeing ur username on this thread if I'm not mistaken (just an observation which might b wrong)

Abes, dont feel too bad and dont give up. What were the reasons for which you were refused? Were they mistakes you may have made in your application? If they were, you could correct them and reapply if you still have enough time,

why do i need multiple IDs, may be you guys should check when i registered on this forum, and finally, i was on this thread this January.

Abes, dont feel too bad and dont give up. What were the reasons for which you were refused? Were they mistakes you may have made in your application? If they were, you could correct them and reapply if you still have enough time, 

I don't think those ECOs check the forms submitted before processing the application. The ECO commented i'm required to show maintenance of 7200GBP (my uni is actually outer London, so i only needed to show 5400GBP), secondly, the ECO made no reference to the accommodation i paid (with receipt o).
I was advised to request for administrative review, and that will be my next step,


To all of you still expecting alerts, I pray for success.

Abes, If am permitted to be an investigator on this forum, I have a lot to say. but I reserve ma comments. I wish you success as you proceed for the Administrative Review. It will be sad If any1 is playing pranks on the thread. I believe we are real and matured individuals

I can't wait to celebrate with u. . . . don't get heart attack b4 u get ur hands on that visa

Let me share this funny stuff with members of the forum.
I got my entry clearance on wednesday, I opened the package on the staircase to check if there was the cursed white refusal note in the package, when I did not see white, I was so excited and told the guy beside me that I got it. When I got outside the premises, I check again and saw a white sheet, I was so upset not knowing it was the letter that my HOD wrote to them, was surprised that it was returned as it was not in the previous application, I finally checked to see that I was issued, I was so happy, but I started to feel sick. I did not get better even when I got home. I was feeling pains all over the left side of my body, and was having problems breathing, my heartbeat was unstable. I had to go to the hospital yesterday, guess what they said, they said I was suffering from anxiety disorder/panic attack. I was giving some drugs and am feeling better, but am not yet 100% OK. Just incase anyone gets ill with this on this thread pls dont hesitate to get in touch with me, I would be glad to give you the prescription,
Very funny, isnt it?

i think i'll need your prescription, and if you have one for trauma too, i don't mind.

@Abes let me have your email address, as for the trauma, dont know anything about that.

at abes,
can u answer this questions about ur application, Did the accomodation fee u paid, was it paid to ur tier 4 sponsor? meaning, is ur accomodation a school hostel or school provided accomodation
if yes, Did ur sponsor include the payment in ur CAS, just like it did with ur tuition

if no, then did u submit an original receipt from or email print out as evidence, from a recognised body

Whats the name of ur school, the ECO wil never make such silly mistakes, please check well, and check ur primary site of study, to be sure it is not inner london.

Bro, I understand how u feel, and we are here for each other, i have travelled to england before and i ve been refused before, my application is still with BHC and i hope to get my entry clearance,
Refusal, is no big deal, read up and make amends,
remember, adminstrative review does not allow u to include any new document,
if u want the ECO to consider money paid for accomodation, it is best the money that u paid, is paid to ur tier 4 sponsor, and the money is shown on ur CAS, DO NOT PUT IN RECEIPT, TELL UR TIER 4 SPONSOR, TO SHOW IT IN UR CAS, DONT GIVE THE ECO AN EXCUSE,


anyway, still waiting for your reply,
all the best, one love

please, with the public hoilday on 9th and 10th, i guess we all waiting for visa are going to be delayed again by another 2working days,
this high blood pressure is killing me oo

with the 50k we paid, british embassy should make this thing faster, 15working days is just too loooong, my brain doesnt seem to do any other thing, think about collecting my visa and get off, for my masters

^^^
The sch is middlesex university, and i'm very sure its not in inner london, its even on the school website.
As for accomdtn, i paid to the sch direct. No financial info was written on CAS dat was sent to me (not even the tuition which i've made full payment), so i submitted official receipts for both tuition and accomdtn.
NB: all CAS from middlesex uni have no financial info (tuition and accomdtn), u'll only need to submit the official receipt.

If you applied to Middlesex Uni. and you paid for accommodation. an offer letter will be sent to you( stating the particular hall) and afterwards a confirmation letter(stating the time to pick your swipe key). If I may ask, what campus of middlesex uni??, what course?? and are you for PG or UG program. were you made an unconditional offer? if yes. I dare you to give me your Middlesex student number and date of birth. I will prove you wrong.
I really want to help you, this is crazy for any ECO to do to an Esteemed Nairalander with over 200 posts!!!!

Congractulation to those who av gotten their visas. I believe that the good GOD dt did urs is still on HIS throne HE will surely did ours too. Mine 18callendar days, 11 working days as at yesterday. Oh LORD I cried unto YOU, hear me and have mercy upon me and others looking onto YOU. Give us our visas we pray. AMEN. AMEN. AMEN. in JESUS NAME.
