Thanks for your comment Sexylogan.

Please feel free to assist in this short question below as well as other fellow nairalanders with idea on this particular issue; Justwise, Donxavier, Dharkchild et al.

For section 6.15 in the self-assessment form: Please kindly verify again if I can tick the first two boxes as Government is offering my cousin scholarship covering maintenance and his school has already offered him 500 pounds scholarship.

And then in section 6.16. Since Course Fees has been paid in full by the student himself, do I leave the course fee section blank? And then for Maintenance; when the assistance by the Government is converted, it is actually a little over 8000 pounds but my cousin needs just 7200 pounds by UKBA requirement. Please do I put 7200 pounds in that slot or should I put the actual converted figure that Govt is giving which is quite in excess of the UKBA maintenance requirement >8000 pounds. And if I am to put the actual amount of over 8000 pounds based on today's conversion on Oanda, what if the value fluctuates slightly by the day he is going to submit, would there be a problem? Even though I know that no currency fluctuation would make it go below the 7200 pounds UKBA requirement.

And then in section 6.17 Which box do I click because they asked "Do you have any fees and maintenance due for payment" . I am confused by the maintenance due for payment part because maintenance is usually held by the student till he arrives the UK and not paid to anyone.

GOD bless you all as you assist on this. Thanks.

For the section 6.15 yeah, tick both.

For section 6.16 in the course fee, enter £500 and for the maintenance enter 8,000. The fluctuation in price would boy affect it as long as it is still higher than the £7,200, you won't be denied visa.

In section 6.17 your course fee has been fully paid for, so just enter £7,200 in the maintenance and same in total.

Even though I know that no currency fluctuation would make it go below the 7200 pounds UKBA requirement. I am worried that if I have to put the actual amount of the Govt assistance when converted and maybe I put like 8,100 pounds based on today's exchange rate, what if by the day he is going to submit, d rate fluctuates and if converted by the ECO and the ECO arrives at something like 8,050 pounds, would there be any issue due to this discrepancy.

And then in section 6.17 Which box do I click because they asked "Do you have any fees and maintenance due for payment" . I am confused by the maintenance due for payment part because maintenance is usually held by the student till he arrives the UK and not paid to anyone.

Charles, there is an interactive visa form link in one of the pages. Cant really remember now. I suggest you google UEL(Uni of East London)'s Vaf8 and the appendix interactive visaforms and download them. You get Complete guidance for filling of forms

Thanks Donxavier. I googled the UEL link and tracked the interactive PDF, trust me, it has basically done justice to few sections where I had a double mind of what to fill exactly.

Nonetheless, others feel free to still comment on this if you have any experience with such a situation.

Charles, y°u r welcome mate. Just tryin to help.
To answer your first question, yes, I think Yøur cousin shud tick the first two boxes in 6.15 as both apply to him. I'm stumped on the 6.16 part though maybe the UEL guidance will help.
On another note, I don't know whether it will reflect on his CAS if he e-mails the school abt his govt sponsorship of his maintenance. I've always thot that its only tuition fees and school scholarships are mentioned in the monetary section of the CAS document. In any case, it wudnt hurt ur cousin to scan it an send as an e-mail to his school and ask whether it can be reflected on his CAS document.

Cant you get another transcript?

Donxavier:

Donxavier, you have ignited another quantum of fear within me o. Must transcripts be addressed to the University you are planning to go? The transcript I submitted was not addressed to any school; the same transcript was scanned to my school while I was processing my admission. I hope this will not be a problem for me? Justwise, please shed some lights on this bro. Thanks

it's not a problem. Usually before getting the admission, people send out unaddressed transcripts to many schools to secure the admission.

Donxavier:

I can but its gonna take a minimum of 3 weeks and time no dey again. My school resumes last week in september. The transcript I intend using was addressed to Unilag.

You need not bother going to get a new transcript thats addressed to the school you intend going. On this I am certain, the introduction page is irrelevant as long as your Transcript is genuine and by so, I mean has the your school's official seal on it. A friend from my school last year applied to University of Nsukka for MSC and my school addressed his transcript to Uni of Nsukka. Few weeks later, he got ETF scholarship as he was amongst best graduating in his class. All he did was scan his signed and officially sealed 'student copy' of his transcript and send to a UK school and got admission, it was same transcript (original copy) that he gave to the embassy and he got his Visa.

And by the way, you should not even have the introduction letter with you cos your transcript is normally supposed to be mailed to your intended school directly from your previous school alongside the intro letter. But we know that in Nigeria, people get both copies by hand. Following the laws, it is only your student copy that you should be with and student copy has no accompanying intro letter and its this student copy that you would submit to the Embassy.

Pls justwise hlpp me wit this.I put in 1,988,000 million on the 31st of july as maintenance fees but mz dad paid in another 400,000 naira on theyth of august hpe dere its not a prob and also wat oanda conversion am I to use the later or tthe former.thanks

Not a problem for outta London. Use the oanda conversion rate of the day you print out your statement.

You got nothing to worry about,the deposit will not affect the 28days count. Use the oanda conversion of the day you print out the bank statement.

@darkchild @justwise i think he wants to know if he is to 1,988,000 value or 1,988,000 added with the 400,000 which will be 2,388,000.

I think you should be ok. You don't need to add extra documents. Especially for something as minor as that.

Donxavier:

I am afraid it's not as minor as it sounds.. The address printed on my Toefl official report is stated to be in USA. I have never been to USA before, and in my online application they asked if I had been to USA before and I said truthfully no. They might get suspicious then as to how I have stated that I have never been to USA and my address in my certificate is in USA.. This was a long story, as I preferred for my certificate to be sent to my relatives and they in return to send it to me via DHL, instead of international standard mails being lost by EGYPT's postal services.

U can explain that in your application or just address a letter stating the issue and attach to your application. Say it the way it is. No need for long essay

I am in UK since 3 years doing my course that ends next year (so its a 4 year course), but my visa expires soon on 18th October, 2012. I will soon be applying for an extension for 1 year for a Tier 4 student visa. Now, i have all the documents ready with me, i have £1800 in my account (to show for living costs and the rest for two months) and to leave them for 28 days in the account the date will be 18th September, 2012, that's when i plan to submit my application. I still haven't paid the £8400 fee to my university, but i will mention this in my application where they ask how much fee i have to pay(£8400) and how much have i already paid(£0).

My question is, do i have to show £8400 fee in my account's bank statement for 28 days as well or can i get away without showing that amount and show just the living expenses(£1800).

You need to show that you have paid the school fees or that you have the school fees in your account.
