@Justwise @creamyworkz

It's been 2 weeks since passport was submitted after admin review was successful. Is it meant to take this long ? I called them but was just a waste of time and £25 just fly like that lol

Is there anyone is a similar position?

Email them if you haven't yet, I can imagine how frustrating the whole waiting time can be.

Please who recently bought the pounds. How much and where?

ooppsss!!!! Where do i start from? ...and after i had my interview last week, i had to switch over to thinking mode...in my definition, its a mode where u sit up late at night and be thinking about a refusal letter, its also a state where u see nkworbi or better afang soup with enof kpomor and u just stare at it while swallowing saliva severally.

This mode was still active until this morning when i got a collection mail and immediately i started experiencing the call of nature...the toasted bread i was about to eat suddenly fell off my hand and i ran into the room thinking about how i will either rejoice or lament at TLS Abuja; ran into the bathroom, still trying to ansa the call of nature, had a fresh bath and was ready to damm the consequences of whatever i receive.

As i got to TLS, i was just wonderin what will become of me but thanks to MrsDaniels and Mcstar who gave me a very significant tip on how to know if one is refused or granted a visa and the tip is once u get ur parcel and u feel ur passport spread out then know that u have been granted but if its not, then broda, sister, ur name na sorry.

As i got mine, i felt it and lo and behold it was spread and i knew it was a big YES. i suddenly tore the pack and lo and behold my passport was stamped. I suddenly started laughing and laughing and oh my God, i went down the lift and zoomed off. Now this is my timeline:

Submitted application on September 20th
Received at Sheffied on September 22nd
Got decision mail on September 26th
Got collection mail on September 28th.
Paid for priority service anyway.
TO GOD BE THE GLORY, VISA APPROVED.

Where do i start thanking.. Mcstar, u r a darling.. Thanks for ur assistance all through, will sure catch up with u there at Coventry. OlowoB, my mannest man..u rock, man..

Wow! i don't know whether this is good news or bad one for me..because money sent home will buy very little to them

Everywhere seems quiet so far. Any success story or denial so far?

Has anyone ever been told to pay more money for IHS??

Depends on who's requesting. Is it UKVI? Ideally when paying IHS, it calculates the exact amount of ur length of course

Well ukvi told me to pay more money as mine was not complete

Me1124:

IHS fees is calculated based on your length of stay. What's the duration of your course? Is it for 12 months of 24months?

What's the duration of your course and how much did you pay? Are you sure email is from UKVI? How much are they now asking you to pay?

Me1124:

Thats what i thought.. its a 12 month extension.. cause i already did 3 years

Bourne007:

Welll its a one year extension.. the automated pay thing was £150 but it was meant to be 225 so 70 difference.. and yeah it was from them..

Normally 12 months with additional 4 months hence the £225. Are you applying outside or within UK?

Me1124:

Outside the uk

Hope UKVI has sent instructions on how to pay. I think normally u will have to fill in the online application form again and only pay for IHS. you don't have to pay for the application fee.

Here to share my success story and I hope it gives someone else some hope. I submitted my application at Ikeja VAC 8/09/16. After submitting all supporting documents, I was given the self assessment form to go fill outside the gate. While filling the form, I realised I forgot to submit my ATAS certificate which I had, but forgot to print out. My heart sank when I realised this coz it would mean instant refusal. I quickly printed out the document from those vultures taking advantage of desperate people (expensive as hell). I informed the man at the gate of my missing document and he made it known to me that there was no way to include more supporting documents after submission. He was very brutal about it too. I pleaded for a while. He finally allowed me in coz I had to return the self assessment form. When I got in, I informed the lady at the counter of the missing document and without hesitating she directed me to the stall near the interview room where my other documents were at this point. I got there but the person there refused to accept the ATAS, but collected the assessment form. So I returned to the first lady at the counter and she collected the document from me. I left without seeing her include the ATAS with the rest document. So the following week, I had nightmares about been refused. The 3 weeks wait was hell. I spent every minute of the day expecting a refusal. To God be the glory, I picked up my visa today and almost fainted before opening the package. 'Twas successful. She included the missing document. God bless.

Also, I didn't include passport photographs when I submitted my application. I found out the next morning that that was ground for rejection. My school advised me to cancel and re-apply. So I requested a refund (cancel) and gave the reason: forgot to include passport photos. Cancelling to avoid rejection. Same day, I sent an email to UKVI asking whether passport photos where necessary. I received a reply next day that they were no longer required. I had already requested to cancel my application. Luckily who ever reviewed my request, used his/her own judgment to ignore my request because of the reason I gave.
Peace to the people.

Umm i have already applied and done my interview.. they told me to pay more after a decision was made...

If you have a UBA- issued card, its fine to use.

But be aware that you will be charged at parallel market rate.

750 pounds will be equals 431,250 Naira only.

Yes go for AR, if marriage certificate and kids birth certificate are not evidence of relationship then i don't know what else will be

@Justwise, thanks for your prompt response, but how will I convince them with the review since I have already submitted the marriage and birth certs that shows our relationship? and how long will the Admin review take? thanks
