Am so happy dat am on track, thanks Mr Justwise, should I just go and submit my application this one that I can't reshedule or even cancel to rebook?

pjonesm: Hello justwise and co, please i had already fill out the online application form and had also book the appointment. But i later discovered that there was mistake on my parent dob (it was different from the dob i submitted last year while i was refused )can i fill out a new online application and book another appointment. please advise me, though the parents are late and i don't even know there real dob, i only quote for them, but what i fill last year was different from the online application i just submitted now. please can i fill another online form and re book the appointment. it is urgent i need response please.
Also i had paid the full tuition fees and i have a balance of (1,400,000naira) in my account for over one month, hope it will not affect my chance about the maintenance fund

wolske: Hi Justwise. Just a quick question. I'm going for my Phd and i already have my visa. My wife also has her visa (she got the visa as my dependant partner.) I however noticed that while my own visa allows me 20 hours work per week during term time, my wife's visa says nothing about work, it just says "no recourse to public funds". Does this mean that my wife cannot do any work throughout the period of my Phd? I need a clear interpretation of the immigration rules on this question. Looking forward to your response. THANKS.

justwise:

I need to check that and get back to you because i remembered reading about changes to that sometime ago.

justwise:

Your wife is allowed to work because of the level of study you are going for, wife or dependant of people going for masters or Phd are allowed to work

wolske:

Hi Justwise you promised to get back to me regarding whether my wife can work while i do my Phd?

honey86:
I can't speak for other schools but in my school, uni of manchester you can within d first 2 weeks. Infact it was announced during orientation seminar

justwise:

There is no need to re-book, submit and go for your interview, use the interview opportunity to explain to the embassy about the mistake, there is nothing to worry about there.

You have 1,400,00 naira plus your maintenance money in your bank account for one month?

Saucy Dolph:

Hey dear.....are u in University of Manchester? I was given an offer there. Am gonna need ur help on certain things like accomodation, what to bring, how to ggo about it. Plz let's chat if u're willing to help.

pjonesm:

YES I have it for one month as the balance, so I should raise the mistake about my parent d.o.b at the interview even if they dont ask me ? please respond

Aristoqrat: Hello guys.
I got my Visa today (friday, public holiday), apparently the Visa center opened to only those collecting their package. I was sent a text message on Wednesday morning (Day 18) to come for collection.

Thanks to all the people that have taken time to post here, most especially Justwise -you are providing a selfless service, many thanks for that.

My school starts in September, so looking forward to that!

I would be glad to offer advice and or answer questions regarding the application process. All the best guys!!

justwise:

Please lets keep discussions open here to benefit others, you saw her post here because she shared it openly.

moufpeas: Hello,
Who is going to RGU
Please I need your urgent assistance as I am currently filling out my appendix 8 visa application form ....pls help with the following questions:
1. Give the full address of your tier4 sponsor including postal code
2. Give the full
address of your primary site of study, including postal code.
Please I will really appreciate your swift response as I will be submitting my application tomorrow m

orning. Thanks

Saucy Dolph:

Congrats......Please when can I apply for visa? Now or after 28days? 28days completes on monday(19th). Do I go to d embassy on that tuesday or just apply online? Take me thru d process. And when will my dad print out his bank statement? I'll appreciate ur quick response.
Thanks

Aristoqrat:

Thanks a lot!

Okay so to your questions:
1. After 28 days minimum of the funds being in the account-It would now be safe for your dad to get his account statement printout from his bank. He can go on the 20th.
2. You can then proceed with your application by applying online.
3. After applying you need to book an appointment online, after booking a date make sure you do a printout of the details as you will be asked for it when you get there. This is the rush period, so you might not be able to book a particular date -but go ahead and book the next available date.
4. On the scheduled date of your appointment-that's when you will take all your supporting documents (both originals and photocopies + your international passport) for submission. When you get there, you will pay your visa fees, your documents will be collected, and you will have to sit for a video cam interview.

Note that
There are two different forms to be submitted. One has to be filled online(vaf9 application form http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/visas/vaf9.pdf)<<----You can print this one out, fill it and use it as a guide when applying online. You can apply online here http://www.visa4uk.fco.gov.uk/ApplyNow.aspx and when you have reached the final stage -you have to print out the online application pages(about 5-6 pages),sign,attach a passport photo. You will take this printed out form with you on your appointment date.

The other has to be filled by hand -The Vaf9 appendix 8:Tier 4 form http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/visas/vaf9-app81.pdf)<<------print the form and fill, take it with you when going for submission.

I hope that helps, all the best!

kayode85: Hi Everyone!I recently joined this forum and I must commend the efforts of those helping Applicants through this platform.
I will be travelling in September and I need advice on the best way to travel with money to the UK as a student.do I need to open a domiciliary account?which bank is the best to open such with?do I carry cash or go with travellers cheques?
I will appreciate it if people who have done this in the past can put me through.
Thanks

Saucy Dolph:

Thanks for ur response....sorry for my questions though..I have the 2 required forms. From what I have read from page 1 of this thread, u fill the 2forms and with all your documents, you go to the embassy and submit. Is it compulsory I fill d one online or I should go with the hardcopy? Has it changed? Do I have to book an appointment b4 I go cause am thinking of going on the 20th. Am tired of reading...its affecting my eyes.
Thanks

Aristoqrat:

Yes you have to fill the vaf9 application form online -and then printout. As long as you are applying from Nigeria, you should apply using the online application system. See the 'Applying for a student visa from outside the UK' page here http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/studying/adult-students/apply-outside-uk/
Yes, it is compulsory that you book -if not you wont be attended to.

Aristoqrat:

Hello, congrats to you.
You can open a dorm account. Then use your Mastercard to withdraw funds when you get there. GTB or Ecobank is good.
You can take cash too, but will need to declare it if you are carrying 10,000 euros or more (or the equivalent value in other currencies) when entering the UK from a country outside the EU.

Aristoqrat: You are welcome.
What date does your school resume? I can't say when you will get a date -It's only after you've filled in your details in the scheduling page, thats when the available dates will appear.
