494 to £1 for one transaction while the other was 496 to £1. In both instances we paid bank charges of about 15k.

MzDebzz:


Please when and what was their rate as at when you paid? Thank you

Less than 2 weeks ago. I did 2 form A transactions and both were treated next day.

@ebunstic..how long ago did you process your form A?[/quote]

I do not think so. I think they are only based in Lagos.

Fwaz:


Thanks for this info but does Travelex BDC also operate in Nnamdi Azikwe international Airport?

Not sure if you are referring to Form A processing or PTA/BTA.

In my experience with Wema bank, Form A was processed next day. We got telex copy next day.

PTA/BTA processed instantly.

Thank you

Hoverboy27:
Thank you. Do you know how long it takes for them to process the request or is it Instant?

Yes you must have booked a flight as your ticket is one of the documents that must be presented for PTA or BTA. You can only access the PTA not earlier than 2 weeks to your travel date. Not sure how or if they check but I believe they need tickets to have been fully paid for.

Thank you

Hoverboy27:
Please must u book flight to collect PTA? Can you just reserve it? Like some airlines will confirm a reservation for 48-72 hours till you complete payment. Are such tickets allowed? I don’t know if they actually go online to check if the ticket has been paid for.

For Form A, use Wema Bank. School Fees was paid next day on two occasions.

For PTA or BTA, you can use Travelex BDC. They are both at the arrival and departure wings of the MM International airport. They use the CBN approved rates but you must have a return ticket.

Thank you.

Hoverboy27:
Please which BDC for that rate? Ones I’m calling are giving black market rate. is there anything like IBTC BDC?

Hello,

Send your complaints to complaints@homeoffice.gov.uk You will need to quote your GWF number as well as passport number. This was the email address I used when my baby's name was wrongly spelt. They wrote me after about a week or two to resubmit the passport to TLS with a copy of the email.

I got a new visa signet after two days. The entire process was free.

mitch2002:
good evening house, please can someone help me with the email address I can use to contact UK embassy for issues with name on a uk visa

You can visit the TLS anytime from 10am.

Hello, I will like to ask from the house what did they attend to people that want to pick up their passport at the Ikeja submission center. Can one walk in there anytime to pick up his or her passport?

A business person can apply for visa without tax clearance and still obtain visa. My husband runs his business and recently got his visa without any tax documentation. Only certificate of incorporation, CAC documentation, Company profile/Introduction letter in company letter head, ID card, invoices, bank statement.

Candybright:


1) Nothing
2) just the first page of your checklist
3) No, you already submitted it and they have all that info
I hope I'm right.

Meanwhile I asked if a business person here has applied for visa without Tax clearance and was approved nobody answered me isnor good ooo.

Firstly I suggest you read through the guidelines on the UK visa website. I filled out individual application for every single member of the family. We also submitted same documents for all applications. I wrote a cover letter showing all members of the family referencing GWF and passport numbers. The cover letter addressed purpose of travel, whom we will be staying with, duration of vacation, finances of myself and husband, job details, etc. Single cover letter written and signed by my husband and I. Our cover letter was 2 pages.

Documents submitted includes
6 months Bank statements
6 months payslip
Birth certificates of children
Consent form for children showing children will be accompanied during the travel (got this form from the UK visa guidelines website)
Deed of assignment, land purchase receipt, survey plan
CAC of business registration
Employment letter, confirmation letter, salary review letter, letter of introduction from office
Marriage certificate, newspaper publication of name change
Utility bill
Passport biodata page
Previous visas and pages of immigration stamps showing exit and entry dates
Sponsors letter of invitation, 6 months payslips, 6 months bank statement, passport biodata page
Itinerary ( I mentioned just date of arrival in the UK, dates we planned to visit four different tourist attraction sites, date of departure from the UK).
Budget

During submission, I picked self service and picked same date and time for all submission so we all went in and were treated as one family.

I hope this helps

Thanks to everyone here

Many thanks.

Just go with your international passport, photo copy of data page of international passport, checklist and final submission page print out.

Hello All. Please do I need to submit hard copies of my documents during biometrics even after uploading on TLS website? Thank you

Not sure they can offer what you expect

Thanks a lot. I have registered for the examination. Still interested in the books. My email is ebuntoluwa@yahoo.com

I did not attend the interview as I couldn't verify if the invitation was genuine.

Hello SkillHunt, I am interested. How much does it cost and how can I get it.

Thanks

Dear Nairaland,

Please I got the email below. Did anyone else get this? Need to be sure which company this is and if its not scam before I respond to the email. I recall applying for this role in June but its funny they aren't providing company name and I can't find them on google. Please help.

Dear Nairalanders,

Please did anyone receive an invitation for interview from the above named company? I applied for the position of a Procurement officer to Laddurian Limited about a week ago and got this invitation yesterday.

I have tried checking out both companies via google but cant seem to find much information. SpringRock website didn't have basic information like 'contact us' and no names were mentioned in its Management team section. The invite doesn't also state any number to call.

Just want to be sure this is genuine as my interview is tomorrow.

Any help from the house would be appreciated.

Thank you

Hi guys,

Please does anyone in the house know anything about African Reinsurance Corporation? i.e. conditions of employment, salaries & allowances, propects for growth, etc. Any information will be highly appreciated.

Thanks

Hi Blank,

Just wondering, 19 is a Sunday and not Monday. Your friend seems to be the only one that has been invited for the skills test as at today. Did he get a text or email invite. You need to share information first.

Hello Guys,

The Advert placed is not a recent one. In fact, it was posted in February. People should always try their best possible to give correct information to avoid unnecessary embarassments and confusion.

Stay blessed.

Hello,

The test is simply Maths and English with a bit of logical reasoning questions. It also comprises of Current Affairs questions like the GDP rate in Nigeria, Director of BPE'S.

You would also be required to write three essays. One is what you hope to be in Twenty Five year's time, another is to write an essay on any current happening in Nigeria and the third one is if you were in charge of a Parastatal, how would you curb fraud or misappropriation of funds.

You have be very fast and u would be allowed touse a calculator. The essays are not so long. Just a couple of lines, say 11 or 13 lines.

All the best.

You would still be required to have an interview with Mike Adenuga himself. He and only He has the final say when it comes to staffing.

I would advice that you get yourself a new and fitted suit, a good pair of shoes and a clean cut and shave before going for the final interview with him if and when u are called.

Finally, you must exhibit a whole lot of confidence, as I hear he hates those that are not bold.

All the best!

A friend of mine called from Niger State Yesterday asking if PZ Industries had called me. She claimed that a friend of hers called to say he received a text from them asking him to come for another aptitute test. He was told according to the text to come with his writing materials for another test on Saturday.

I guess it must have been a mistake because why should he be told to come for another test. what happened to the previous test. Or maybe there's just a mix up somewhere.

Thats about all i can tell about PZ Industries test.

Hi,

I am new too. I have a B.Sc in Accounting and also an ACA
