Please house can one withdraw from POF available, while awaiting visa decision to pay up 50% of balance of school fees as requested from the school.

farnet:
I think those fees on the UKVI ain't to be so exactly relied on. There are certainly some + and - they employ in the conversion rate. Instead of trying to align with the fluctuating rate every day, I think they possibly stick with what the rate is at the beginning of the week or beginning of the month. So, if you want to check the conversion, you may need to set the Oanda date to 1st day of the week or month.

See the attached. NOTE too, they use this also for POF. Setting the date to your date of application. It's this rate they use in calculating your POF and not the rate it is at the time they are looking at it

Oh i see. So even if the amount changes within the month and you’re debited according to that, they don’t update their own site. It’s not impossible. Thanks

Apply for a new CAS

Praise2222:
After I received my cas, I discovered that my passport has less than 6 months validity, so I quickly renewed my passport at the nigeria immigration(I paid for express service). Now, my renewed passport number(with 5 years validity) is different from my old passport number(which is on my cas).
I'm about to apply for visa, what should I do?

Please how can I apply for transit visa….

Hello everyone. Thanks for this platform. I've been trying to secure biometric date while selecting priority (VI) but cant seem to secure dates. Please is there anything I can do to get a date ?
Also, can I pick the self service and pay for the assisted service when I get there?
Pleaseee waiting on responses

Hi guys,

Please dependents recieved BRP letter 3days ago, MA didn't receive.

Now, dependents has received collection mail, MA still didn't receive.

Pls is this normal? What should MA do at this point?

mi4mi2:
Hello house!... pls for January applicants, has anyone gotten an unconditional offer from sheffield hallam?

And also does anyone know how long it takes to get an unconditional offer from worcester?... I'm a bit anxious �...pls someone reply me �

I have an unconditional offer from SHU. Got it last week Wednesday

Good evening everyone! Please I need help as I am currently in a dilemma with UKVI issues.

@dduchess90, @justwise or anyone with advice on this issue please.

I moved with my spouse to another African country about 2 years ago after he got a better job offer here. We are blessed with 3 kids aged 8, 6 and 2. Unfortunately, I couldn't find a job here, (the country has a small economy), so I decided to switch careers to give myself a better chance of getting a good job.

I then applied for an MSc in the UK, and was able to secure admission, get my CAS and apply for my visa. We also applied for dependent visas for our kids but not for my husband, considering he has a good job which would also fund the expenses for myself and the kids. He also has a subsisting visit visa.

However, we received the notification email today that 2 of our kids' visas were denied dependent visas based on Paragraph ST34.2 of the Immigration rules and based on the following statement: " I am not satisfied that the required level of documentation has been shown in order to prove that your mother has sole responsibility. " We are yet to receive any information on the application of the 2 year old.

Please bear in mind that the supporting documents for the kids' visa applications were from both parents and we even indicated in their forms that we both have parental responsibility for the kids. I do not have sole responsibility for the kids, neither did I claim that in our applications. We also included details of my husband's job and the necessary documents pertaining to that.

In applying for the visas, we read all the requirements on the GOV.UK website but none of the information on the student visa/dependent partner of a student/ dependent child of a student mentions anything about this issue.

Now, we are at crossroads because based on this rule, the interpretation is that the other parent, who is not the main applicant must be willing to be a dependent, which would necessitate them living in the UK with the main applicant and the child dependent(s). This is not an option for us. Also, the kids cannot remain with my husband due to the nature of his job, as it requires a lot of travelling and we do not have any form of social/family support here, as all our family members live in different countries.

The only exception to this rule is subparagraph (C) of Paragraph ST34.2 of the Immigration rules which states that, "unless the decision maker is satisfied that there are serious and compelling reasons to grant the child entry clearance or permission to stay with the parent who
has permission on the Student route or as a dependent partner of a Student."

We do not know what to do next, whether to write to the Home Office directly, apply for an administrative review or reapply for the visa based of the provision in subparagraph (c) as we do not know if our situation constitutes serious and compelling reasons to grant the exception. So far, what I have read online depicts circumstances that are very different from ours.

Please, help a sister! I am trying to be a supportive wife, good mother and still want to build a life for myself. Please anyone with any advice/experience on how to tackle this issue. I would deeply appreciate it. May God bless our hustle!

Don't stress it. Children can't be given visa without the father going with you according to their law except yoy have proof of sole responsibility. Best is you all apply together husband goes with you and co.e back same week to his good job.

I got in touch with a UK based lawyer. According to him, all you needed was a consent letter giving strong reasons why your husband cannot move with you guys.

Did you submit a consent letter, signed by your and your husband? The letter was meant to explain that you will have sole responsibility of the kids for the period of your masters. Get in touch with a good lawyer
I don’t even understand why they want to force people to move with MA for masters.

Where did you do your biometrics

Ikeja

Hello

Unfortunately there's nothing more to add to this, the rules are clear.

UK doesn't joke with child welfare and work/family balance.How will you the MA take care of 3child dependants whilst studying?

Writing to HO or administrative review will only waste more time if the compelling reasons are not justified.

You do have the right intention for yourself but the focus is on the kids. Your have to reapply for their visa along with their father.

Cheers

Hello @Gift7428

The question is what are the strong reasons?? And what evidence is included to support strong reasons??

Do you know people have left good jobs to balance child welfare because a spouse choose to relocate?

Some not all UK based lawyer are more interested in consultation fee even when they know the reasons are not enough to grant a visa without the other parent.

Also, I remember you said some ex classmates applied without their husbands and got visa and that you would update the thread when you confirm this

Have you applied for yourself and your kids without your husband and were they granted visa?

It will be nice for you to advice if you have

Cheers

First let her confirm from her school she can take the offer and study part-time instead of full-time and with that response she will reply the company.

Thanks a lot for your reply.

Here's a screenshot and link to caseworker guide for skilled workers visa application for more research.

She should have a look and confirm

Thank you very much bro.

jamykay:
Thanks but am confused here.
If takes 15 working days if there's an issue, I presumed it will take less if there's no issue instead of 21 working days.

Bro less than 21 working days could also be 15 working days remember ?

stfranko2:

Yes . That’s the main purpose of the POF

I promised and I will do that.
As for the ex classmate she is in the UK with her boys. I don’t know if you guys felt I was just making stories up.

The UK based lawyer didn’t collect any consultation fee from me actually.

Strong reasons will be peculiar to her. My strong reasons might not be her strong reasons

Whatever becomes the outcome of my daughter’s visa will be shared here lol. I have nothing to hide.

Maybe her number of kids and age played a role in her case anyway.
Single mothers move with their kids to the UK. If they can cope, she can cope as well.

HelloHow many months does she have left for her study. There is a clause that skilled workers can be applied for when you have 3months left to conclude your masters studies. Will this be the case?

people are applying earlier now.. I think your school just has to certify that you can work and schl or somthin along those lines.. this is written in a letter to UKVI
