The United Kingdom Embassy in Nigeria has announced the temporary suspension of study, work and family visa applications.

It explained this was because the priority has been placed on applications made under the Ukraine Family Scheme.

In a statement posted on the official Twitter page of the United Kingdom Embassy in Nigeria on Tuesday, the embassy announced that Ukraine Family Scheme was launched in response to the humanitarian crisis arising from the invasion of Ukraine.

“As a result, UKVI has temporarily suspended priority and super-priority services for new study, work, and family applications. Customers with standard applications in study, work, and family routes may experience some delays in the processing of their application.

“We are still currently unable to offer PV for visitor applications in Nigeria. Standard visitor visa applications are currently taking an average of six weeks to process.

“Applicants will be ed by the Visa Application Centre (VAC) when their port is ready for collection. They should not attend the VAC until they have been invited to do so.

“Where there are extremely comionate or compelling circumstances (for example, a medical emergency), UKVI may consider expediting specific cases. However, the bar for this is high and will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.

“If a request is exceptionally urgent, applicants can UK Visas and Immigration for help. Please note that this is a chargeable service for overseas customers. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.”

cheesy grin

Boss, they will come for you oh, those in of Ukraine so that they can travel to oversea, to continue their neo-slavery to the West.


Here is the Nigeria the wicked West with UK colonize, they don't even allow us inside their country, neither they allow us to breathe in our country.

If we do election, they must present their candidate jf not, the election isn't credible, our so called economy is been handled by the West, and you think we should them?

Russia that helped South Africa fight apartheid is now better than Nigeria, but US that helped Libya get rid of Gaddaffi is now a touch pad for US to sell weapons to terrorists running down Africa.

All those asking question between China, Russia and West, which one will you choose grin grin

This is a misrepresentation. Only Priority and Super-Priority Visa category was temporarily suspended. The normal standard visa application category is still in full operation. Kindly all note this.

This is not true. It is only priority visa, i.e. instead priority of 5 days, everyone is now on same standard period. So people can still apply but it will take time.
