Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by ENEMIESENEMY(m): 3:29pm On Nov 20, 2021
Hi Guys,

Please I'm trying to select a date for appointment, self-service (23rd of November), but the page doesn't load when I select "No Thanks". If I select upgrade to Super Priority, quickly it loads and proceeds with a bill of £1,011 , but I don't want Super Priority. I already paid $134 for application, and UKVI already assigned a compulsory £55 for UKVI services. (Lagos, V.I - I didn't know about this bill additional £55, if not, I'd've chosen Ikeja)

I just want to select a date, so I can proceed to upload my documents myself. But, it just doesn't proceed.

How can I fix this please?

Thank you.

Hello, please I need to know how to apply for a Schengen transit visit. I want to use KLM to travel to the UK and it looks like KLM have changed their rules as the UK is no longer part of the EU.

Is it the same requirements as applying for a visit visa? How long does it take, etc? Thanks.
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by sojimomomo: 4:02pm On Nov 20, 2021
I actually I applied with my family and there were also other documents for my wife and children.

You can only submit what you have and PRAY but the bank statement should be authentic. I was convinced myself that my bank statement could earn me a successful visa putting my hope in God almighty too.

My suggestion is, if your bank statement is not yet good, just be patient and build it up. These documents you saw me mentioned were not prepared in weeks but in months. I took my time with the inspiration from God to put them together.

Why not use Qatar? The amount is similar and you won’t need transit visa?

They said it takes 15 working days to review applications for passport withdrawal, that’s like 3 weeks and again my 2 years visa fees cry . All I can pray for is they release my passport before deadline on the other end .
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 4 by dzee1: 8:59pm On Nov 20, 2021
Pls I have a question/concern.
I did my biometrics in abuja on 28th Oct. Clearly the 15days for standard application is over.
On the 2nd of Nov I got a mail with this body if mail.
"Dear Customer

Your visa application is under process by Visits UK.

Depending on the service you purchased, we aim to process:

- Super priority visa applications within 24 hours of biometric submission
- Priority visa applications within 5 working days of biometric submission
- All other visa applications within 15 workings days of biometric submission"
[b][/b]

My question is, did the 15 working days start from the 2nd of Nov or 28th of Oct.

Also, I need to be in possession of my passport by latest 1st of December cos I have a trip to make to the US on the 7th and I have my tickets and plans ready.

Is there anything I can do to compel them to release my passport for me? Is there anyone to write to? Or do I just wait hoping the passport comes out before the 1st?

2nd of November. But you can make message them to confirm if a decision has been made on your application and when. It's possible this mail is a generic mail

Did they tell you if a decision has been made on your application? It took them two months to return a friend's passport. I will advise you to be patient to avoid loss of money. Can the deadline of the other stuff be extended if your explain your situation to them?
