MaoMao:

MaoMao:
Good day

No, not yet. It's not easy finding especially wen u are not yet there... Any plans on getting one?
Is ur visa out yet?

AirBay:


Which part of manchester do you stay? If you want to save more try to check houses in nearby towns. Buses dy everywhere nah.

I used to live in Birmingham city centre, was paying £800.. my guy thay was living in dudley was paying £550 for a 3bed. Rented out 1 room to a Wolverhampton uni student...

I'm an ulster uni student, coming for this may intake... Looking for a 1 month roommate... Any help? Or who can connect me

justwise:


No i don't.

Thank you

zubizareta:


Save your money if you want to use ut for study permit application. It's not a useful or required document that can alter the decision of your application

So it's not a requirement for UK student visa application?

QuickSuccess:


If you have received a Visa decision from UKVI, it takes about two to three working days before VFS gets your port.
It may take shorter, but that's what I've observed so far.

Also, it's almost impossible to VFS Ikeja, the best option is to go there physically. You can try this email, but they're slow to respond: [email protected]

Okay thank you. I will go tomorrow.
Again please for someone applying for UK student visa, will she need police report?

FirsteBank:
.Many thanks to @giselle and other commentators

Grateful to God.

Please do you have the ikeja details to confirm if my port is ready.
I have received visa decision but no other message from vfs concerning my port

larex007:
Can someone assist with VFS Ikeja number. I applied for visit visa for my mother in-law. Biometric done on the 25/02/2025. I reached out to ukvi via paid mail and I was told that decision as been made seen 12/03/2025. VFS Ikeja didn't provide any delivery details after I was debited twice for DHL delivery. No update on application. I tried reaching +2348070199993 but to no avail.

Please any success yet with the vfs ikeja ... I'm in the same exact shoe, I am very far from the center to go ask for my port to know if it's there yet.
If u have gotten the please share

Please is there anyone yet to receive a decision that had biometric since January.

Diamondville:


Yes it is. What programme are you going for? If you need any help with post-application, I can help you with it for free.

Ulster is good. I'm waiting for my visa for may intake for the school.

festyflash:
Have you gotten a decision now?

Nothing yet, and I have even deferred for may. what about you?

GoAbroad25:


If you have someone in the UK, Ask them for help.
It's quite easy from the calls to go through from there

Yeah thank you I just did and they said I should wait this week for decision. Nothing specific

Smartguru2:
Also, please check your email, I have trying to reach you.

Thanks.

I didn't get no mail yet , try again

Smartguru2:
Did you use a dorm ATM card or naira card?

You can't do the paid call transaction using a naira card.

Okay, I have been trying with a naira .
Then I just have to focus on the paid call.
My sch resumed today

GoAbroad25:


This is exactly what you'll do.
Don't fold your arms and allow them to use you till your university withdraw CAS.
Have someone do paid calls & emails on your behalf twice next week.
Tell them to prioritize your application, that your university has resumed and that you have invested a lot into this.
You can even tell a lie and let them know that your study leave from work has been approved and someone else is resuming 1st week in February.
Appeal to their sentiment, so you'll know if they want to schedule you for an interview or request for further documents.

Thank you very much.
I have been trying paid mail since last week but payment keeps failing... Maybe I will try the call instead now

smoothknight:


So I have to keep renewing till I get a reply?

Unfortunately, that what it means because I have renewed mine 2 times beyond my calculated period 😭

Which sch is yours? Do you know anybody who has received visa from same sch

[quote author=Jovieeee post=133849199][/quote]

Thank you, I have been trying to make payment but it has been failing and telling me I don't have a payment reference.
What could that be??

smoothknight:


I’m in the same situation and my pof runs out today. Pls do I renew or I leave it?

Yes oo!
Without the POF being there it will affect the decision because not being there means u means u don't have enough funds for ur study.

Femolapasta01:


What day did you get a notification that the DMC has received your application? You should count from that date not necessarily the day you made the biometrics. I really don't know about Ikeja VFS,if they get the application across to the DMC the same day.

Did bio same day at Ikeja 2 Jan. I did not receive any mail from DMC but rather I only received a mail from VFS that my docs has been sent to UKVI..

[quote author=Makaegbobi post=133840016][/quote]

Same here but I'm yet to send a paid mail. Sch resumes on 27 Jan.

Smartguru2:
