@all
Reading through all the posts here I have a major concern. I submitted my visa application at ikeja last week monday and the lady there returned my appendix 8 form saying it wasn't needed.
It seem every other person is submitting and also it is written on their website.
Can my visa be denied because of this 'error'
on the part of the lady at the visa centre?

Congratulations! I am happy for you! Ensure you get a few winter jackets handy as you prepare to come to the UK. All the best!

Apparently, the Appendix8 may have become somewhat obsolete as many other people did not submit it since the website upgrade by UKBA recently. At least two people have reported getting their visas without submitting the form. NO WORRIES!

On this forum? I have read through the last 10 pages and only those who submitted seem to have gotten response. The other 2 that made similar complaint I presume are yet to know their fate. Unless you are talking about some people not on the thread.

Well, a friend of mine who applied in Abuja did not submit his App8 and got his visa after 3 working days. I mentioned that two reported it earlier because I had believed one person who shared her visa news on the thread didn't submit her App8 too but I checked the thread again and realised she did. So that makes it one person that I know of; sorry I said two earlier. Anyway, it's no reason to panic.

Pls guys one more help. I Have my CAS now and I want to travel for my visa application by wed or thursday, but the problem now is that I want to print my statement today tues,and the last transaction was on Friday 13th Dec (I withdrew with ATM). So can I print from 15th Nov to 17th Dec even without any transaction yterday
Secondly, the transaction thing a day before printing statement is it one of the UKBA requirements? And must the transaction be by deposit or can It be either deposit or withdrawal Me I like to Withdraw with
ATM ohh
Plssss Helllp

Thanks loads keji11 was refused on the grounds dat I used my dads own company account which is NOT an international company. Secondly only the date, reason and wat type of visa dey refused me eg tier 4 tier1 etc but ensure u don't hide it cos they have details already in their system

I was at vac 2day but still nothing. The dude who attended to me assured me it will be there 2mrw. However, after reading royalsweet's post that she got an email I had to check my spam and voila bhc abuja had sent me an email since Friday 13th Dec that my visa was issued. I have jst been unnecessarily worried since friday evening. Thank y'all for ur patience and assistance.
May God bless y'all according to ur needs.
Now they can keep my passport till Friday if they wish. No more anxiety things

Yes please, go may go with printing your statement (whether you make a transaction today or not).
The transaction-before-printing advice is to ensure you show enough required detail on the statement and prove the money is still there. Personally, I will advice you to make a transaction today (you can withdraw small change as long as the balance is sufficient for your required money) and print tomorrow...but you're safe if you don't.
