Good morning to everyone...Am going through some difficult time with IOM and I know am not the only one in this,I was able to book my TB test last week(9th of August) and I was scheduled for 14th August,I made transfer to the account rolled out by their customer care (Standard Chartered Bank) and message them with the Booking appointment confirmation message and payment receipt,till the booking day they didn't get back to me so I went to IOM on that Monday (14th August) but we were told we are holding draft appointment not yet confirmed (over 50persons were in this on that Monday) We were told to go back home and message them with our passports and payment confirmation and I did email them on that Monday they replied me on Tuesday to send my passports in PDF format which I did immediately and till now they haven't reply me even after sending messages everyday till this morning nothing yet... Pls if anyone know what else I can do or anyone who's in the same situation like mine and have been able to solve the problem. 😠😡 |

My brother it’s not the same for me. I use them every time and have never had a problem for once. Either them or travelstart but travelstart is difficult to reach by any means incase you need to change ticket. But wakanow is easily reachable. milliki: 2 Likes |

@omotem Send the employment letter for financial firm. It doesn’t matter the salary written on it. What’s important is that you were working. Also do not worry about your employer’s cac status as you have left the place since 2019. Then send evidence you have for the remaining years. Goodluck 1 Like |

Hello Gurus in the house, Please I need your kind assistance, In 2016, I used a third party for my visit visa to the UK. A move I regret till today, I lost money, time and everything. I applied using an agent, Sadly after waiting several weeks, the agent was not showing any interest or concerns, I went for biometric, I was naive at that time and just left everything to the faith of this agent because I believed in his sweet lies. I didn’t get my passport back, I waited for close to 4-6months then declared the passport as lost so I can process a new passport which I eventually did I had no idea if I was refused or approved the visa. Please Guru in the house, I’m deeply worried, if I knew the circumstances of my last application, I would be able to know how to navigate the new application I wish to apply for this year ending. Is there anyway to go about this or how best can I present a new application for a visit visa. I look forward to your kind response 1 Like |

ExperimentBoi:You declared the passport missing? You didn’t contact the embassy first about your passport? There are two scenario here, either the agent never submitted your application or he never collected your passport from the embassy. If he never submitted it then a missing passport is not a problem, but he if submitted it and never collected it back, then I don’t know it could maybe be a problem. Didn’t you receive any emails from the embassy or anything? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by CLASSMAN: 11:51am On Aug 19, 2023 |
How about the worst case scenario of he was banned for fake documents? |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by ExperimentBoi: 11:53am On Aug 19, 2023 |
From what I can remember cause this happened years ago, The agent received an email which he got that my application process has started which he showed to me via screenshot then, the email came from tls. After then, nothing else from him. I tried contacting the embassy but I couldn’t provide enough information to trace my application. I tried contacting the agent as well, nothing. I waited but never got the passport back so I declared it missing and applied for a new one. Apriltreasure: |

To the best of my knowledge, all documents I provided where genuine. From my bank statement to everything else, came directly from me But the two document I didn’t provide are the hotel and flight reservations and he paid for my appointment and everything else. The problem now is I don’t how this agent provided this two documents mentioned above. I can’t 100% say about the genuineness of this reservations as I didn’t book them myself. The agent was not honest, I started to notice this very late and honestly that was when I knew oh now I need to sit right and find out what was going on. But it was too late as my application has already been submitted weeks before.. CLASSMAN: |

Hello everyone, ukvi requested additional documents for children's application and I sent it this middle of the night around 2:00am(saturday) but I received a mail almost immediately say "delivery failure". What is the problem? Pls help me o. The documents are less than 25mb. I don't know what to do again. Another question pls, they asked us to explain why we collected our children birth certificate in 2020 because one is 5yrs and another one is 8yrs. And they also want us to show the relationship we have with each child. Please help a sister. Thank you. |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Apriltreasure: 3:17pm On Aug 19, 2023 |
ExperimentBoi:You went for a biometric right, you know the visa category you opted for, your name and passport number should be enough information for them to trace your application. And you can’t trust agents, they can be very nasty. Just because you gave genuine supporting documents those not stop him for using fakes on your application. Maybe you should still contact the embassy or go there in person. You know your previous passport number right? That might help. |

omotem: Dear Visa Officer I hope this message finds you well. I recently received your email requesting official and verifiable documents to demonstrate my activities since graduation. I appreciate your diligence in ensuring a thorough assessment of my application. During the period from 2014 to 2019, I was employed at XYZ, a financial firm, and I have retained my employment letter, which outlines my tenure there. However, I would like to clarify that the company is no longer active on the Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) and the letter contains my salary details. Additionally, I possess a letter from the same company, confirming my resignation. While this letter was addressed to my pension company for my benefit processing, it does serve as proof of my departure from the firm. From 2019 onwards, I have been actively engaged in running my own business, which involves selling thrift wears. I have taken the initiative to register my business name, and it remains active on the CAC to this day. Considering these circumstances, I understand the importance of providing solid evidence to support my activities during the study gap. I am willing to work collaboratively to ensure that the required documentation aligns with your verification process. Please let me know if there are specific formats or additional documents you require, or if there is a preferred method of submitting these documents. I am committed to promptly providing any necessary information to facilitate a smooth evaluation of my application. Thank you for your understanding and assistance. I am looking forward to your guidance on how best to proceed. Please feel free to reach out to me with any further instructions. Best regards, *make sure to attach all essential documents*** 4 Likes |

ExperimentBoi: These are the dangers of using agent Is the new passport having details linking the old one? Anyway you did biometrics then so your prints are already in the system. In other words, once dey check your prints again and match it with your old history, your old passport and what transpired back then will come to light. So whether you change the passport won't actually save you from what's coming if the previous one was wrought with atrocities and lies. It is well. There must be a way to know the outcome of that one you used agent for. Hmmmm Don't tell me the email of the visa was addressed to that agent This your case get as it be |
Re: General UK Visa Enquiries - Part 5 by Thegamingorca(m): 10:05am On Aug 20, 2023 |
ExperimentBoi: Omoh... The way you ppl give another fellow human being this kind of trust and responsibilities over your own life is astounding. This is no different and tantamount to someone willingly waiting to be scammed. And after being scammed accepting it hook line sinker as the will of God instead of confronting the devil who messed you up. Did you do biometrics back then tho, Asin going to TLS to have your fingerprints taken and your eventual mugshots? Cos if you did then I'm sorry to say that your ship has sailed. And I still don't get why you never bothered to check on this agent. Is he your elder brother? Something is sha not adding up |
