Please LASEPA hotline will be appreciated please.anyone??

There are a few churches around new oko oba that make life miserable for us on friday nights and some mosques too that try to outdo each other every morning.

It is with repeated punishment that we will finally have some sanity in lagos.
Thank you Fashola!

Thanks maaabo.
I called the GMC and they made me aware that they dont send official hardcopy confirmations, infact the person i eventually spoke to was surprised at that ground for refusal saying, all their candidates ever use was the email confirmation, i was eventually passed on to someone who told me to print out the 'My GMC' pages containing the test date status, the one confirming pass in part1,the online receipt etc. All these i have done now, i was told by the GMC that those should suffice for any of their high commissions worldwide and that only an ignorant ECO will deny an application with those documents(my paraphrase there).I paid for the exam with a VISA debit card issued by zenith bank so i cant have any bank letters to that effect.
I thought of booking a hotel but i dont want to change much from the previous application, my host just couriered more documents for me today, mortgage papers and more bills(gas, water and BT)in addition to a new letter and a copy of his british passport(which wasnt stamped by any post office, i hope that wont be a prob), if the stamp on the passport thing will be a prob i can easily make a reservation in a hotel with my card, but do you think its a good idea changing residence in a reapplication?i intend to submit the reapplication by monday morning.

Learnt my lesson!
although what im seeing on the VAC site now says i should have filled the VAF-2 form(employment).

http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply/infs/inf2visitors#16003900

now im confused, though that site says i should apply as a business visitor,the form says employment and the other one they gave me to fill was VAF 1C.

i think ill just call the embassy tomorrow to confirm, thanks a lot for your advice its been great.i remain grateful

Thanks a lot ybab.

i was surprised too at the VAC when they told me i was to fill the business visitor form, in fact they gave me a new form there and then at the VI centre.I had gone there with the academic visitor form fully filled.They went through a lot of checking and checking and came out with the business visitor form and told me to rip the old one!.
Thanbks for the replies. will sure put that into consideration. My host just told me on phone now that he'll courier the tenancy agreement to me by Tuesday.I already mailed the GMC but will call them again in the morning juts to fast track things.
Thanks a lot once again and i hope to come to this forum to give you the good news.

Hi all.
Im am glad to have found this forum, was recommended to me by a firend and i have read through enough of the pages on this thread to see its quite helpful.
I am a nigerian based doctor who was recently refused a visa to the uk. i was supposed to be going to write PLAB part 2 exam in london for 30th november this year.
I applied and was refused because the ECO said:

1. i only supplied an internet printout of the test date confirmation from the GMC and that i should have supplied something on GMC letterhead, now problem is all those i know who have ever applied for the same exam used the same printout for their applications and got the visa. I have already paid fully for the exam(430 pounds).I have mailed the GMC for such but someone told me they never issue such.
2.Second reason was that the person accommodating me in the UK supplied only a copy of his passport(hes a uk citizen),a letter that he will accommodate me and a copy of fone bills, the ECO was unsatisfied with this saying he/she is not sure of the person's circumstances and his ability to acoommodate.
I was given a right to apeal.

My questions are:

what can i do if the GMC refuse to send me any hard copy? and even if they do it might come late, the exam comes up soon.

i dont want to take the appeal option becos it takes time i learnt,can i reapply immediately with the extra documents?

can i appeal and at the same time reapply?

and someone told me about a 'review' what does it entail and will it help my case?

what other documents should my host supply to convince them he can accommodate me?he's an older colleague.

anyways the category was business visitor-PLAB exam.

thanks a lot and your urgent responses will be greatly appreciated, thank you Nairaland.
