please read these lines to see if it applies to you.
If you appeal or ask for an administrative review
If you applied from:

inside the UK - you’ll get your refund up to 6 weeks after your appeal or administrative review is dismissed
outside the UK - you’ll get your refund
up to 6 weeks after your visa application is refused
You’ll have to repay the IHS if your appeal or administrative review is successful and you’ve already got your IHS refund.

You might have to repay a different amount if:

the length of your stay changes
you get less time on your visa than you asked for
Contact UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) if your refund is not paid within 6 weeks.

How many months does it take administrative review to make decision

14th Aug - Application to University of Lincoln
31st Oct - Conditional letter
5th Nov - Unconditional letter
7th Nov - Deposit paid, request for CAS
28th Nov - Received CAS
4th Dec - Visa application (MA)
6th Dec - Visa application (Child Dependant)
7th Dec - Biometrics (MA and Dependant)
9th Dec- Empty NSF (MA)
9th Dec - Additional doc request (Dependant)
15th Dec - Uploaded doc requested (Dependant)
19th Dec - Paid mail for both MA and Dependant
Several paid mails and calls
27th Dec - Biometrics letter dropped (MA)
28th Dec- Collection mail (MA)
29th - DHL brought passport. Decision made 23rd Dec, Vignette sitting pretty and smiling (MA)

This is where the story begins on dependants application

I did several paid mail and paid calls. Decision has been made but they cannot disclose the outcome of the decision. I should wait until VAC tells me I should come and pick the passport before going.
After all the prayers and fasting, mail dropped and....

4th Jan 23 - Visa denied (Dependant is a 5 year old girl)

The visa refusal was because during the 28 days of the bank statement rendered and using the OANDA rate of the date of application, naira equivalent of £30 dropped. Meaning that one of the account balance for the day on the statement was less than £30 pounds. I cried my eyes out that day. The most painful part is that I have another bank statement that I would have merged, which is a domiciliary account and there is some money in it which would have been enough and over what was required.

I thought of what to do. I couldn't find any solution and doing an administrative review wasn't an option as the outcome can take up to 6 months, and it costs £80. I was discouraged, but I still believed God can do wonders afterall I have put everything in Gods hands. I cried myself to sleep.

5th of Jan - I wrote a full 2 page appeal letter that I cannot leave her because she is small, a girl child, I am the only parent, blablabla. I mentioned the trauma she is likely to experience, breakdown etc - the thing too much. I then wrote a 4 page cover letter admitting my fault and telling them that I have another account that can be merged. The cover letter covered everything I have been doing for her since conception to birth, all our hospital visits, her allergies everything, and I am the only person who can take god care of her as she is only a minor.

Hmmm, I attached all the previous documents I have submitted earlier and uploaded 2 months bank statement for both accounts as against the 28 days bank statement and sent to all the channels they have ever communicated me with - Amendment, Escalation, Document, BRP, all of them. With all of these they did not reply me. Days runs into weeks no reply. Did paid call and paid mail - decision has been made since 23rd of Dec (Visa refusal).

I lost hope in it and started demanding for passport to be returned. I write mail tire.......

18th Jan - I travelled to the UK - School resumes by 23rd Jan
18th Jan - IHS Refunded
30th Jan - Collection mail to return passport
31st Jan - I started another visa application. Saved it and was going to pay for IHS and Visa the next day.
1st of Feb - BRP mail dropped (Visa successful). Decision made 27th Jan. I cried and cried. This would be my very first experience of crying for joy. Not to exaggerate, I cried for more than 30mins, praising God and crying at the same time. IT WAS A MIRACLE THAT I CANNOT COMPREHEND.
1st of Feb - DHL delivered passport - Vignette sitting pretty - My daughters picture was too fine in it. God is wonderful. Coincidentally, it was my sons birthday. Double celebration in the house.

This is my story and I give God all the glory. I pray that everyone waiting fir a miracle as mine will receive in JESUS name. AMEN!

Dichimma:
Good day everyone, I am currently doing my masters degree in the UK. I have been worked as care worker for 3 months, I have worked more than 20 hours in a week more than 4 weeks and I am planning to apply postgraduate visa but I am wondering if the visa will be granted.

Please my question is has anybody worked in the care home for more than 20 hours and was given a postgraduate visa?

Thank you.

Pls someone should answer this got debit as well but cbn rate and bank charge not yet debited?

tanyabeiychhh:
The outdated CV gave you an offer. That is where their business with your CV ends, you don't need to say anything about it, it's not relevant information at this point. Just update your CV for future job opportunities that's all. You do not need to include your CV in your visa application and even if you wanted to include it, the university does not share the contents of your CV with UKVI.

SPDAZZY:


The most important thing is that your fees have been debited. Some banks debit the charges separately, others don't and somehow incorporate it into the rate of exchange.

The CBN charges do not prevent your uni from getting your fees.

Ps: This is a personal opinion from experience.
Thanks man

LarbieNesky:
Please can I use my micro finance bank account to print my POF statement for Visa application? Is it acceptable by UKVI?

duchess90:
Hello

Yes, as long as it is regulated by the CBN

Cheers
