Guys I need help. My programme starts on the 21st and I was to travel yesterday but I got to the airport and they noticed my student visa expired on the 8th of January!!! I had to idea. What’s the way forward. I’m shocked right now. I don’t know what to do. Please help

Thanks a lot everyone!!! I got a new visa stamp today! Special thanks to @lakeside2u & @justwise that informed ASAP of vignette transfer. Bless up guys! I really appreciate ��

caleb00:
also was it ikeja or VI?

Ikeja

LagosismyHome:


Did your vignette start from the date of the letter of the date they said the Visa was valid

Basically when it was issued

caleb00:
You paid for super priority?

Paid for super priority. $1,521. I just need to submit my passport on Monday and wait for 24 hours. Then hopefully fly Wednesday evening.

Update: Guys I can't pay for super priority visa on the Gov.uk site. It keeps saying "Sorry, there was a problem processing your payment." I've tried different cards and it's not working. Should I try priority?

Update:

I used Safari browser instead of Chrome and it worked

LagosismyHome:


Omg.. . Sorry to hear this. Quite painful. Hopefully it gets sorted soon

Thanks. Really devastating

afriman123:


Yeah I’d probably get an extension because my course starts on the 30th. I’m applying ASAP and paying super priority ($1541). Thanks everyone. This is a lesson. Please always read stuff like these properly. I just feel like a fucking idiot.

The joy of seeing the visa didn't make you check it. Tell your school what happened and mail the embassy. Your school may help and defer your admission or tell you to apply super priority act fast bro.

Contact the embassy immediately to complain. You will be called to resubmit your passport.

Your course is not a short program right?

No. It’s for 18 months

lakeside2u:
This might help you as contained in my visa decision letter

"Your passport/travel document contains a vignette (visa sticker), which you will use to travel to the UK. The vignette is valid for 30 days. If you do not arrive in the UK within this 30 day period you will need to apply for a vignette transfer, the fee for which can be found at www.gov.uk/visa-fees.''

Wish you good luck!

How long does the transfer take? Can I do super priority?

abuhusna1:

You didn't post complete information that will enable people look into your matter and advise you. The date it was issued, lentght of your program so we check it it was error from visa officer

My visa was issued on the 9th of December 2019 and it was valid until 8th of January. I misread it

justwise:


When was the visa issued to you?
