Anyone know?

Newbie123:

As a Londoner, I’ve seen a lot of people avoiding London saying its cost of living is very high. This is true but you’re also going to get more job opportunities in London including a possible switch to tier 2 visa than other parts of the U.K.. So my advise is if you can afford any uni in London then go for it.

Hethrow Airport is so busy I doubt if the people there will ask that. Make you look neat and clean nice hair and cloths trimmed beads , clean shave . They only asked me what I am here for what am I studding that's all.

*Visa Alert*
It’s been a long and bumpy journey but God has been good to me.
Applied for a visiting visa and got denied in October 2021 for lack of evidence of sources of funds and travel history.
Started the student visa process immediately with hopes of japa-ing in January.
I’m a third class holder and didn’t want premasters because of the funds involved so I started applying to different schools, Coventry was the first to give me ission but the fees was just too high. Oxford Brooke’s followed with Birmingham city uni and I chose Oxford Brooke’s because it was direct masters for management in health and social care with 13,900 tuition fees. Paid the tuition deposit and then they refused me cas because I declared my previous visa refusal to their Isat, they said they were afraid I will get another refusal. I was so devastated cos at the them they did this, I had already missed Coventry’s deadline(Dec 18th). I already had my tb test result and had to start all over applying to schools and looking for Jan start. I eventually got University of west London and sunderland the same time. Sunderland also refused me cas because of my previous visa refusal. I had to go UWL even with the 10k deposit required. Did their precas interview and ed but they too denied me cas because of my previous visa refusal! At this point I didn’t know what to do again, time was going, pof was ready and only cas remained. I now sent them a very lengthy mail explaining myself and situation that moved them and they offered me a deferment instead to June as I wasn’t going to be able to make January start when they responded. They gave me a new offer and issued my cas on the 9th of April.

Thank you.

How can one use it for IHS and visa fee payment on UKVI website?
Is it a code to input for the payment or how can it be linked for the payment?

I think you misquoted.

I'm actually asking for how to track my application on VFS Global

ellakarl1:


You can barter by flutter. Get a virtual dollar card, fund it through your naira and pay for your IHS and visa with it. I paid mine with it two days ago and it was very easy and fast. The rate they gave me is even cheaper than what Mallams gave me. Their rate was 606 as at two days ago while Mallams told me 610.

And it went through successfully? Been skeptical about it though
& can you fund the card & pay same day ?

Hi everyone. Please be careful. This UBA is a scammer. Don't ask for any help with your form A on twitter . He is definitely going to wipe your after collecting all your details. I have seeing many Students crying because of this !!

Fumikutti:

You might / You might not

Always endeavor to deal with verified s when ing your financial institution.

This particular has so many red flags. I hope you aren’t a victim.

If you follow this advise OYO for you

Please who could be of help, i mistakenly put Miss instead of Mrs , now her offer is out, i have actually paid for her deposit, waiting for her CAS, how can i change it from Miss to Mrs so that it doesn't affect us when applying for visa.

However, people say that there are job opportunities everywhere in the UK and that reason is not good enough.

Kindly expatiate on London giving higher chances of a possible switch to Tier 2 Visa.

Thank you

Good morning people, please has anyone here used Western union to pay tuition deposit?
Is the exchange rate the same as Form A?

I would have used Form A but my port isn't ready yet.

Hi,
Is it possible to pay for tuition deposit with the virtual card? Especially as the delays with Form A

fatee2000:

I don’t think so

You can fund it and use it immediately. There’s no time frame required between funding and usage.

There are jobs opportunity everywhere in the U.K. for sure but more in London. It’s like comparing jobs opportunity in Lagos to other parts of Nigeria.

Tier 2 visa sponsorship are usually sponsored by big companies such as the NHS and you’ll find more NHS Trust or jobs in London than anywhere else in Britain due to the population size of the capital. I work with the NHS and I’ll say in the past year, I’ve come across several Nigerians working with the NHS who recently switched from tier 4 to tier 2 visas.

Definitely one can get a tier 2 sponsorship anywhere in the U.K. but population factor can increase one’s chances.
