I can't remove the Priority Service because it's not available (grayed out) but I already have it in my cart.
Just tired of this whole process.

Sign out and back
You should start from the continue biometrics
You will be able to remove it from your cart.
Once you have successfully booked a date you can now go back to add it

Please friend

Initially, I planned to come with my family to the UK, so in the place where they asked " will your spouse be traveling with you? , " I answered yes.

I filled the form to the point of payment of the surcharge (I have not made any payment yet ) and I have not paid the application fees.

Now, something comes up and my spouse will not be able to come with me immediately. I went back to change the answer to the question to "No"... But I couldn't edit it.. please what's your advice.

Since you haven't paid start all over again

Good Afternoon house

My bro got an appointment for 1:15 for Biometrics on Friday yesterday and I was sent back from TLS Ikeja. They said 1:15 is for priority.
ALL the way from Osun. Please, how can he get a closer date this week. Hotel bills running already.

But it's boldly written on the site that those date are for super priority.
Try to pick another date and try your luck for a walk in on a saturday.
Hold your 42k
Another option
Is to keep refreshing date every minutes on your tls portal

Haiziik:
The thing is did you get the money back after payment? If yes, make the payment again.
I'm still waiting for a decision. Today is my 137 working days

Bro have you got decision on your Tier5 Charity visa application ?

Is priority visa still available for uk ?

Genlit33:
What's the cost of walk in.

42k

I have an exam in the UK, so I used the details to apply.

I am not sure of the other details you asked about but if your partner earns an income, it may be helpful.

XYZJAZZY:
Ok that is approximately 2M plus.

My other question was not answered! Is it visitor visa for tourist or you were given an invitation to apply.

I have equivalent amount in my as employee but one of my friend that have traveled b4 is discouraging me saying bcuz I'm married with 3kids VO may calculate my expenses and money I'm going leave behind for my family as red flag.

Please I need advice and I also need someone to help me write eye catching cover letter ✉️.

Anyone with assistance should please me 0810366263 or [email protected].

itoski:


Trust me I have done all this but there is no way to remove it... I am thinking because it is grayed out. I have used my phone, tablet, chrome, and internet explorer there is just no way to get it off except when the Priority Service is back... This has to be their flaw.
See pics as attached of the summary of my current dilemma.
The day I started this process, there were Priority visa services but I was stuck because I selected Assisted service and there was no date available not until I was informed here to select Self-service by Giselle1234.

Please send them a mail

Tobidarker02:

Please send them a mail

Thanks for the care guys.
I was able to proceed after the Priority Visa Service came up... What a terrible experience

Good morning.
I need advice from someone in the house.

I have an interview at the US embassy on Thursday and my port is still with UKVI. I have called and emailed severally but it’s still the same response. At this rate, I wouldn’t be able to get the port before Thursday.
Has anyone been in this situation before?
Is it possible to show up at the US embassy without the port and be given another date.

I cannot afford to reschedule as the dates available are now 2024!

Please help. Thank you

sadly, no. That means you will lose the date

I want to book a flight to uk using Ethiopian air but I notice that there are flight changes through either , Frankfurt or Vienna. Which one does not need transit visa please?

Ethiopian Airlines economy class seats to London are fully booked for the period you're looking to fly. That's why you're seeing multiple stops. I believe business class should still be available, but unfortunately it's the full price BC tickets which are available now.
Yes, you do need a transit visa , etc. as others have already confirmed.

Try BA. It should be around $3500 for a return economy ticket now.

@giselle237 Good morning. Please i would like to chat with you privately.

I sent you an Email please.

Please guys, We are not in Nigeria currently. Should we go back to Abuja, Nigeria where we attended our biometrics the last time in 2020 or we can apply to attend the UKVI here in the country we reside?

giselle237:
saw d msg, mention me on an empty thread.. thx

Please guys how is the Flexi appointment done, do I have to pay and pick a date online or I can just show up and pay the 42k?
Thanks for your cooperation.

Korede1016:
Good morning great minds. I am new on this platform.
I had my biometrics for spouse visa and dependant visa with my two sons on 26th July and I got a mail from TLS two days ago that my travel document and that of my eldest son is ready for collection buy I am yet to receive mail for the collection of my youngest son's travel document.

1. Does this mail mean we have been granted settlement visa?
2. Can I go to TLS office to claim the documents that are available for collection while waiting for the last one? Even though it was stated in the generic mail sent that if you apply as a family, you wait for all the documents to be ready for collection before coming.
3. What do I do about the travel document of my youngest son that is not ready for collection yet? Though I sent a paid mail to the ukvi last night...

Good morning Korede, congratulations on the outcome of your visa. I’m also awaiting mine (Spouse Visa) did my biometrics 11th of this month. I can see you didn’t have to wait long before getting a . Did you pay for priority or is this is usual standard time frame for spouse visa?

CashMadam good morning, all my effort to hear from you after so many emails I have sent to you was frustrating. What did I do to deserve this expecially in my challenging period when I lost my husband. Find it in your goodly heart to reply me Thank You.

Cashmadam, good day
I am the woman who has been sending you emails without replying me. You promised that you will check my information sent to you at the end of last month but you have not. I will appreciate if you can recheck your email.
Thank you Ma

Good morning, everyone,
My wife and son had their biometric for dependant visa on the 14th April at TLS Ikeja Lagos. She got pick up mail for my son on 6th of May, found my son’s port and her own decision letter in pickup package. Following paid mail, son’s decision letter was sent via email days later.
The problem is, my wife has not gotten her port returned since. Several paid mails and calls to UKVI, they kept saying they have escalated the query to appropriate department and that they will get in touch shortly. Its been over 3months now. My son’s vignette has even expired, my wife who is supposed to travel with him has not gotten her port back.
On TLS tracking, it still shows that application is at DMC. She has decision letter stating that application is successful and has permission to enter UK since 20th of May 2022.
Please house, I need help, how else can I go about retrieving my wife’s port.

Thank you for clarifying.
That is some cut throat flight fair

You can apply from the country where you have ‘valid residence’

You will not be attended to. They will ask you to go online to reschedule.

It means your visa application is still being processed, but you can withdraw your port in case you need it for urgent travel.

Guys please which of the TLS centres has the closest dates available for visitor Visa application? I have already chosen Ikeja but cant see any date for either assisted or self service. Am I doing anything wrong?

Good day all and @duchess90, please can anyone help me with this. I am applying for a visitor's visa with my children who are minors and my dependants, there is a section of the form that requires you to state the amount of money you will be spending personally for the trip and there is another that requires you to state the money you spend in a month.
These questions are also in the children's forms too.

My question is, knowing that they are minors and don't have a job or money they spend personally, am I to input the same amount of money I have in my form in their forms also?

For example, If I have I indicated there to spend #2.5 million as total money to spend for the trip and #80k as what I spend in a month, am I to state same amount on each child's form or am I to share the money equally to go round?

Please assist me with this because am just stuck there. Thank you in advance

Hallelujah
