Hello,
Please How do I answer this question?
Do you need assistance with Visa/Flight fees?
Should I say outright Yes or...
Hope I won't sound desperate.

Please I see people complaining on this thread sometime ago ing wakanow as travel agency. Those who have used them should please explain if they are good or I should stay away because I intend to book with them tomorrow with either British Airways or Virgin Atlantic because it seems they are the only two with direct flights to the UK and I do not want to be going through the stress of learning how to apply for transit visa. Your prompt response will be highly appreciated. Thanks

BA and VA are on the high side... Why not use Ethiopian airline, just one stopover and you're good to go.
You can book it yourself using their site.

Do they offer accommodation & feeding during stopovers?
Heard Egyptair does.

Please are you saying I don't need transit visa for Qatar Airways because there transit is Doha?

Please my question now is.In such case in whose will the POF be?in main applicant or dependent ?

It is a separate application , so the POF should be in the dependant's .

rab4sure:
Sorry but that's wrong, once your employer ticked maintainance. Both you the applicant and dependant does not need proof of funds

Your employer is only responsible for the main applicant not the dependant.

keneryhark:


Your employer is only responsible for the main applicant not the dependant.

In a situation where the employer tick NO maintenance for the main applicant, and the partner and dependants are all applying together with the main applicant, can the POF be in the partner bank ?

Why is a simply query repeated severally in different forms, shapes, sizes and colours? (MA, DA, naira, pounds, dollars, 28days, 56days, and all). Dont some consider it is becoming a spam.

The issue of POF has been explained, expantiated, elaborated with screen shot from gov.uk. it is a simple and self-explanatory requirement

Some people are in a hurry, some don't know how to research and have no plans to learn even though they want to study at the MSc level in Uk, some have little to zero comprehension skills, and some are just plain lazy and entitled expecting others to do the work and give information on a platter of gold.

Can someone help me on hiw I can make payment on ECCTIS site because their worldpay site I was redirected to denied me the permission.

same

please what of main applicant whose is going to get COS , do they need POF too?

Nickelodeon93:
please what of main applicant whose is going to get COS , do they need POF too?

Yes, if maintenance wasn't ticked on ur COS.

No be small thing

Nickelodeon93:
please what of main applicant whose is going to get COS , do they need POF too?

They wouldn't be needing a POF if the employer already ticked maintenance covered. That is already promised to cover maintenance

stevogra:

Yes, it can but must also be ed during the dependant application. What this means is that main applicant and dependant have separate applications . So the POF should be ed on each application but do well to indicate it on the dependant application that the POF ed bears the name of the main applicant and covers the maintenance of both parties involve.

If you have nothing to say u keep mute

Hi guys, I applied for a health and care visa under the skilled labour visa a few weeks ago, later today I got a mail from the DMC, the uk embassy is asking for additional documents for my children applying with me to the uk since my spouse isn't applying, but he would be applying on a later time due to some reasons, please how can I solve this issue,
1. They asked why my spouse isn't applying,
2. arrangements for the kids care (which my employer told me they covered in their COS) and
3. a letter of consent for the father,
what can I do at the moment on the issue at hand?
#ukvisa?

If your spouse is not applying they would refuse the kids because that the rule. It would have been best if you read the rule before applying

Are you able to quickly submit your spouse application and see if that helps. He might not travel now fine ( but what about applying to hold) because for the kids to get visa, he needs to submit as well . That one they take very seriously, even with student visa. It very hard to get visa for kids without the two parent application

Arrangements for the kids care is different from mantaince that your employer ticked. They want to know when you are work, how will the kids be taken care of if you are the only parent. So you need to be specific on your childcare plan.. here in UK you can't just live kids home alone ( especially small kids)

The father should write a letter and state why he can't in the relocation at this time, similarly he should state his consent that he is aware of you travelling with the kids. That should solve 1&3.(attached with the letter should be any form of his ID int'l pp or National ID and signed)

2. If indeed your employer indicated to cover childcare as you've said, they should provide a letter, reassuring so and indicating how.

How do you guys get a company sponsor in UK, either for caregiver or for anything? Please shear

Hello everyone good evening,

I just got my COS few days ago with maintenance ticked, flight ticket, one month accomodations, do i need to add POF?

keneryhark:

okay thanks .. I just wanted to confirm it again

Visa alert.

Whew. This has been gruelling so far.

Started the journey from student visa. At the point I was contemplating which university to pick and pay the deposit, offer letter came with some conditions which included TB test. Apparently, someone didn't clear tb test after COS so I needed to do the test before sponsorship certificate. Did it at ikeja.

Biometrics on 14th September. Abuja TLS. Priority.
Decision on the 16th.
Mail and BRP letter 20th.
Collection mail 23rd
Dhl delivered the port to me yesterday evening with my vignette.
Waiting for dependents' own which was standard application.

The info here and the student visa thread is worth gold if you can read, jot or screenshot, and research.

Ps. I don't know if it's just me. But suddenly to resign from my job here and just travel suddenly seems hard for me to do.

Good morning all, pls my wife is a nurse and she has been applying to UK for a while on indeed, app trac but plenty unfortunately mails. Pls any tips?
