Milito, Thanks a lot for your response.
Can you confirm that a bank could write such a letter ? My mom called her agency and they claimed that the highest proof is the bank statement with the stamp (which have been provided). Moreover, they don't usually do such letters.
We will still try again with them.
Do you have any idea of the fees for such lawyer and procedure ?

Thanks Ă  lot,

Haifa

Good afternoon house. My appointment is 8am tomorrow.
I have uploaded all documents as at now. Whenever I click submit button on tls site, it kept on giving me an error message " an error occurred during the submission".
I used another device that is phone and another laptop but giving me same error message. Please what else should I do? What could be the reason? Is there any time frame or maximum time we can self upload on tls portal?

Check and be sure that all categories is selected for every uploaded documents. I think I had similar error then i checked and noticed that I did'nt select the category for a particular upload.

Try using your computer to complete this step and not your phone as it may be hiding some items on the platform

Please I have a question:

Can I apply for 10years straight after the expiration of my 6-months Visit Visa?
What is the possibility of been given?
And what are the things I can do with the 6-month Visit Visa before it expires that can help me get a 10-year straight?

Thanks...

Try. If you can risk the money for the visa. Nobody can assure you of success.

Nah only God hands Una dey this period. I think the immigration policies are everywhere in the news already.

Omoh. They are putting a clamp to the student visa switch from either January or spring
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by cbn4main: 1:26pm On Dec 09, 2023
I really do not understand what you meant by "interrupt" and the implications.
But here is what students in your circumstances can do:
1). Try and attend all your classes and perhaps have some outstanding resits (failed modules). You are not under any contract with your university to pass all your papers. The most important thing is class attendance.
2). Go ahead and get COS and Wait until the end of your course completion date as stated in your CAS. Then, you and your partner should apply and switch.

Disclaimer: Please, we don't encourage abandonment of studies.

Going back to your question, you can switch to a dependant visa(tier 2) after your course completion date (even though you have outstanding papers).
It is only PSW that requires you to pass all your papers and your university must confirm it to UKVI via the SMS platform.

Cheers

Hey 🤠

People might add salt into your injury . Go and see a reputable visa attorney over there in the UK . You will spend little money but the attorney will guide you appropriately.


Best Wishes 🙏

Omoh

The COS you ppl are getting how much are dey paying that you will still sponsor dependent ontop?

I think you ought to ask the ppl providing you with the COS whether your dependent can benefit or not?
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by hunee: 10:38am On Dec 10, 2023
According to reports, only 25% of dependants are in active work. Maybe we should also ask, how dependants are surviving in the UK with the unfavaroble conditions
Thegamingorca:

I think you ought to ask the ppl providing you with the COS whether your dependent can benefit or not?

Approximately, 120,000 dependant accompanied 100,000 MA in the year running as reported by Cleverly.

You know these people keep records, it was not just an irritational decision to wake up and take that step.

People misuse opportunities.

It is also reported that Nigerians has more dependants in the Uk than our counterparts from other regions.
