taolut:
Thank you!
She did the B1 - the one with ESOL SELT at the end
She found the exam better than IELTS and got 50/50 for speaking. She said it was more relaxed and the people are more friendly.

we have actually requested for the withdrawal of application but no response from them yet. Can we still tell them we will provide Language Cert

taolut:
No! Don’t cancel!

There are options around this - LanguageCert! Please see my post from earlier tonight - my sister had the same issue and we found a way around it. She got her visa email today

please check your gmail inbox

Please which number can we call them on? To ask if they will accept it

If you mean languagecert, it’s on their website that they accept national ID. She took the exam in lagos.

The only thing they requested was that she had the printed ID card for the exam

What type of ID card? I thought they requested for something like any ID from government with picture

Greetings all,

Please is it possible for one to travel to Uk like first week of February with a Nigerian port due to expire in March, 2023? Though new port is in processing but was told it could take upto 6 weeks before it’ll be ready.

Yes you can

Please the language cert exam, I can see Nigeria doesn’t have a center, is it online ?

This test is really costly oooo here is the website below

Yes this is the website!
It is costly however, it’s better than losing application fee entirely and starting all over again.

Also, the embassy holds your port so leaves you with not much option in of taking the exams.

Thank you Taolut

Good morning gurus in the house, I am an international student, just finish in January and have gotten a job with COS to start in February. I have few questions:

1. My sponsor wrote N for my maintenance fee but after talking to them, they now amend my COS and write in the sponsors note that 'maintenance for migrant Yes'. I hope if I tick Yes in the column for maintenance, it will not be an issue with the ECO.

2. With the YES in the maintenance do I still need to provide POF for my dependants (wife and children)?

3. I noticed that when I filled the VISA form and make payments I did not get GWF number but UAN number, though my Bio is in next week, I hope I am still on track?

4. Can I proceed with application for my wife and children in Nigeria now or I should wait till my VISA is out?

Thanks and I will be waiting for responses from gurus in the house.

U are in the uk?? I i dont think UkVI expects someone in the UK to have POF.

Proof of funds can over dependants...but i dont know whats written on ur COS....just to be on the side.....POf wife and two kids for example is just 800£.. which is less than 500k to have in a nigerian .

..u are doing biometrics again inside UK??

Ferrarilord:
morning boss, for those whose maintenance was ticked, when do they reimburse the money spent on the expenses to the main applicant?

It's just to help you not to show proof of funds yo ukvi. No reimbursement anywhere all they owe you is work abd get paid

@Dampops, my wife picked up her Visa on 10th Jan and is booked to travel on 13th Feb. Her sponsor mailed her yesterday to inform her that if she does not arrive UK on or before 9th her Visa will be cancelled. Says start date on CoS is 15th Jan.
Issue is flight's been paid for and all.
Please I need closure on this

If you have children, its has to be yes

Hello, i am having this particular issue but in this case my son port is not ready, if i click yes it will ask for port number .

Please I am filling my dependents' applications. How do I respond to the question "Does anyone rely on you for financial ?" while filling out my wife's application?

What do you suggest I do, I initially clicked yes and on the next page, i indicated they will not be travelling with me to uk

Okay. I came across Pierson on UKVI website. The result comes out within 48hours . I have ed for that one.

eliascomm55:
Good afternoon everyone, this is the IELTS we submitted and they home office is requesting for proof of English. Any solution to this issue??

This is the regular IELTS, you need the UKVI one for UK visas. Someone was refused last week as they ed the same one back to them when they got this same request.

I saw someone post another English Exam they did and got result in the 10 days.

I advise you check the post and do the same to avoid a refusal.

All the best

@Elliascomm55 I came across Pierson English test on UKVI website. It comes out within 48hours. You can check it out
