lamie505: In my CAS what was written was that Liverpool Hope University as assessed the students english and it equivalent to Uk CER B2 or more... I wasn't told to write any test they assessed my english with my transcript and letter from the hod which I included in my visa application... I applied ikeja don't know how fast it is.. If you submitted what was stated in your CAS, then you have nothing to worry about. Applying in Ikeja is the same with other centers -processing will take at least 15 working days, more or less. All the best! |

veyo56: I just applied for a uk student visa but forgot to remove the affidavit sworn by my father which I used for my previous application.in the affidavit he gives me permission to acess his account,but The money for this application is in my account in a different bank, I was wondering if it will affect my visa application in anyway. An avoidable error no doubt, but I don't think that should affect your chances -as long as the necessary documents were submitted. Nothing you can do now, but wait and be hopeful. |

lopmaidx: If you submit on the 19th, means you will have just 20 working days left before Sept 16 -which I assume is your school resumption date. It's pretty tight. Just be hopeful that the processing will be within that time frame. All the best! |

Chuksxy: SAT1: Dont just risk it, if u do, u will definitely loose ur application fee. 78k no be small money if u ask me. UKBA knows nothing next to complete money and genuine papers. So if u dont av ur complete fund I can categorically tell u that u r just putting ur app fee on the line for nothing sake. Fine , u can use ur dads company name/account, but u have to declare his company as ur official sponsor and in that case the company must give u a scholarship/sponsorship letter to show to UKBA. Am sorry for being blunt, its just that I know how herculean it could be sometimes to raise evn 1k in Naija here ni. |

lopmaidx: I hav booked my appointment 4 mon d 19th.I have d complete funds @ N250 to a £ and has spent d 28 dayz bt am scared dat on d 19th it shuldn't be more than N250 or I would fail on d 10 points 4 maintenance. Pls pray 4 me and I would also like 2 let any 1 that's planning 2 start counting d 28 dayz 2 put a little more than d actual amount in case of inflation cos I never tought a £ would be more than N250 which it does reach N250.9 @times That is not a problem. The going rate is often times lower than that, so relax. You said the funds have spent 28days already, have you printed the bank statement? If yes, what date is on it? It is the rate for that day you will use to calculate the funds. Go to oanda.com and do a currency conversion, print and attach it to your supporting documents. It's not compulsory, but it should put your mind to rest at least. |

lopmaidx: Why does it take more than the 15 working days 4 study VISA whn U hav all dat was requested D final waitin game is nt an easy 1 O...... How was it 4 those of U dat waited n finaly got it or those that ar still waitin 4 d final outcome? They receive many applications monthly, so processing time varies. Besides they also need to verify the supporting documents submitted, so that adds to the waiting period too. Just relax, believe everything will work out fine and hope for the best! |

zimsyp: Please when is d best date to travel to UK. My visa is open from 25th of july but my school resumes on the 23rd of Sept and the international week starts on the 16th of Sept(international week is when the school takes new students on a tour round UK. Thanks for ur reponse. Are you staying on or off campus? First or second week in September is okay for you to travel, it gives you some time to do a little shopping for school. |

Didn't receive text when I submitted, been relying solely on tracking. its 23 working days already and the online status is still not changed. After submission you should have received a text message from VFS, but since you didn't -daily online tracking is your best bet. What date did you submit? |

@ttsource: You can contact your school on that. I know schools usually have a list of registered landlords who provide private accommodation for students outside campus. |

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. |

Saucy Dolph: 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. |

kayode85: Hi Everyone!I recently joined this forum and I must commend the efforts of those helping Applicants through this platform. 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. |

Saucy Dolph: 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 you to printout the account statement. 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! |

SAT1: Okay I get your point. From my understanding, you can change your course of study if you are staying with the same sponsor -that is your institution. You do not need permission from the UK Border Agency if you still have enough time on your visa to complete the new course. Your institution will inform the UKBA of the change. |
