Hello,

It's not a refusal and you didn't visit.

My understanding about visa application is focused on refusals or if you have visited any other country.

I won't worry about your russian visa, for the other countries you visited state them accordingly in your application.

It should be fine

Cheers

Good day people of God
I am new here
Please I need your input on this my story
I have been living in South Africa since 2018 with long visitor visa of 3 years…They call it voluntary visa here…it expired 2021..But before it expired I put in for a renewal which I did not get the decision for up to a year, January this year…Anytime I asked about my application they are still on it no approval yet because they’re working remotely, so January this year I got the decision and it was refused,I was asked to appeal which I did but the decision is the same last month.. I had nothing to do than to go back home but I went home with TC since I don’t have a valid visa on my port again. So now am applying for UK visa
My question is I don’t know my chances as per visa approval because of my port as there is stamp of entry there when I entered SA back 2020 dec before my permit expired January 2021but my port was not stamped when I was coming back home this year.Note my expired permit is on my old port,because I came home to renew my port that 2020 and went back to SA with the old and new port but the new port was stamped at the point of entry..Please should I submit but my old and new port when applying for UK visa and back it up with reason why my port was not stamped when I was returning to Nigeria this year? Please help your input will be much appreciated as to how to go about it

Any idea of states issuing port without NIN?

any state apart from abuja, lagos, rivers, enugu, ogun should process the standard e port that does not require NIN for validation.

I saw It on a school FAQ which says, do you currently got your visa using another school, if so kindly declare and notify us. I don't really understand what they mean, and the last time I asked this question, they said it's not possible because of CAS. I think it's possible but someone need to test the sample maybe ypu lead the way, if it work.....

Kunleop:


Are you trying to hide an information or why can't just mention the school, so that another person can benefit from.

Thank you. If I go ahead and renew it using the current arrangement of names, won't it be an issue during visa processing? I already have an affidavit

Hello All,

I am expecting a scholarship decision from school B in June, but I have an offer from school A with no scholarship.

My dilemma is this, can I use the CAS from school A to process visa and then change to school B if I got the scholarship from them? In other words, can I use school A to process visa and resume at School B?

School B is very expensive, and I definitely can't afford them without a scholarship.

Thanks

U people like rough play ooo..

The visa is allows me to stay in SA and work as a volunteer for 3 years and it allow me to go in and out of SA if I want for that period of 3 years, which I do come to Nigeria and go back for that period.. Note I work in my church as a volunteer the visa was given to me under the name of my church.So when I came to Nigeria 2020 to renew my port I entered SA back to submit the renewal December 2020 before it expired in January 2021,I have already submitted for the renewal which I waited for a whole year before the decision came out and it was refused.
As to why it was refused, they are just not ready to renew visa for a lot of foreigners including Zimbabwean and co so the refusal does not apply to only me…Reason why I jejely pack my load when the decision came out because I don’t want to continue staying since I don’t have a valid visa again

Summertime:
Hello everyone,
Please can I add more money to my POF (Dom) and use it to pay for my IHS and Visa fee while it is still maturing. Will it restart the 28 days?

For as long it doesn't fall below the required amount,you are safe,it can go over,infact it will add credibility to that once they spotted you paid Visa and IHS from it

You want a genuine help,yet you lied all through your writeup.
i do not need to be an immigration clearance officer to know you are not straight.

1...You came home on TC to dodge question of over staying and possibly ban and deportation, obviously you came home on someone's details.

2..You do not need a visa to exit to your home country,your Valid port is all you need,another childish lie.

3...I have never heard of Long stay visiting visa.

4.. What job did you engage in on that long visit? how were you able to sustain yourself all through those months?.

Just come clean so that we can tell you the honest truth before you go chop another forever ban from UKVI

Volunteer for 3yrs?
who was responsible for your feeding accomodations and your flight tickets back and forth?
Under what immigration section were you denied?
what was the role of your church during renewal process?
You need to come clean before you can get help

Lol first of all I don’t have any reason to come here and lie because I won’t gain anything from it
Your number one point, I was advised to use TCto come back home because I have overstay during the time I was waiting for decision which was a year wait so obviously when I get to the airport and I want to fly it will automatic ban for 5 years which I don’t want such on my port because I know I still want to use the port for another country,nothing like deportation because I went myself that I was leaving their country and as for you saying I used another person’s detail to exit the country you are wrong I used my details so forget that I can’t do it,if you have ever heard of SA TC before go and ask or read about it to be more informed
Your 3rd opinion of you have never heard of long term visitor visa before, go and goggle SA volunteer visa and read about it,you will get everything you need to know about it, I won’t come here and be lying about what is not ok…
And you asking how I was able to maintain myself I have a good business running in Nigeria which I get money from and I also sell goods Instagram in SA to get money,I hope you know we are in social media age you can run your business online anywhere you are.. So oga don’t come here to judge me as if I carried the worlds sin on my head,na opinion I asked for I don’t commit any crime. My stay in SA was clean and straightforward just that I did not get my visa renewed which am not the only one in that situation and I left the country already…Reason why I came here was to ask questions as not to leave any information out on my application to the UK, I want to know maybe I should submit my old port with the expired permit along with my new port,is that too much to ask?? Oga abeg calm down no one is going to be banned in UK because I don’t lie bout my application. If you don’t have any contribution don’t come here and judge me you can as well overlook my write up and forget I asked for your opinion

Loool… I sponsored myself from start to finish so forget how it happened.. No worry I don’t have much to say clearly you don’t know why I came here,the only answer I needed was should I submit my old port with the permit sticker or not,it’s very simple and straightforward I have nothing to hide as to UK visa application… So don’t am sure I will get my answer as to maybe I should submit the old port with the expired permit or not.

You can't hold a Valid port and be issued with a Traveling certificate,it has never been heard of,the only circumstances to Travel on TC is when your port got missing and the issuance of TC invalidate that port.you can't reenter on a port that was declared missing or destroyed with a police report to back it up, except you travelled on another person's details
You are not speaking to a novice here.

You Sponsored all your trip while Volunteering for a church and allow your business to run on autopilot?
Dey deceive yourself.
Since you already have answer to you question,why ask us here? go ahead and run your UK package yourself.

Good Day Everyone,

I really need all available inputs.

I made an application through an agent to Ulster University (UK) without declaring my past visa refusals. I do not know if I have the opportunity to make this right during my Pre Cas Interview.

I do understand I have to declare when it’s time to process my visa.

I am really skeptical at the moment. Should I just overlook the school application and make things right by declaring when it’s time to process my UK VISA?

Most importantly, do UK schools shares student’s informations with the UK embassy at VISA processing time?

Thanks and God bless as you all avail me with viable s.

Hi, I equally got a conditional offer from Derby. Sent them my documents and waiting for their response on unconditional offer. Please can we connect. I already sent you an email. Thank you.

Same here

Phenmeson:


Some university gives offer even without you ing transcript, port or original certificate. Mind you, some universities are on holiday / Easter holidays. Once ASUU, NASU strike is over, waka go OOU main campu, show them your etranscript receipt, you can be lucky to walk home with copy of your transcript.

Is there a way you can link me up with someone in OOU to help with my wife's transcript? She needs it badly.

Good day guys,
my friend's visa application was submitted without adding the temporary accommodation details of where she will stay in the UK when she arrives. She said she forgot to add it during filling the visa form.

I hope this won't affect her visa decision.

Minna, 60k Wait n Get

official price in Minna is 17,500… you people should fear God. To pocket someone’s over 40k just like that and give FG only 17k. Again fear God

I have an offer from Keele university

rumuseh14:
Please is there anyone on this platform who has applied to the University of keele in Newcastle-under-lyme? I got a conditional offer. Also if there's any WhatsApp group I can be added. I am considering paying their deposit of 2000 instead of going with Bolton of 4500. Although their fees are quite high (18900) with discount of 2000. Someone please respond to me. Thanks!

The person included wait and take. Didn't you see it? Can 17,500 do wait and take for you?

Come to the South East. port is 80k and above for express which takes at least a week

no problem. Wait and take ko? Nigerians always looking for how to dupe the system. Both the payer and the paid. All man should continue.
If nobody patronizes them in this foolish business they certainly can not thrive. How a fellow Nigerian will rip you off for your own basic priviledge as a Nigerian to have a port, then give FG meagre 17k and pocket close to 70k. Everyone should continue to patronize them. Not my wahala

Of course we stated our travel history, but they will confirm if it’s true when you submit your port at the embassy for visa decision.
