Congratulations bro.

I had biometric 10th of July 2023, though I have 4 dependents , wife and 3 kids.

On the 11th all our applications were received by DMC. And its been there since that day till this moment.

Biometric was TLS ikeja too. This is also our second week after biometric.

What do you think could be the delay?

Thank you, I appreciate.


Like you stated, you have 4 dependents, while I don't have any. So, they might be taking time to review your application along with your dependents.

Also, i believe you haven't gotten any NSF mail too. If you provided all documents which can make you to avoid delays like documents to justify your study gaps like employment letters plus reference and proof of relationship linking you to your dependents like birth and marriage certificates etc, then you have nothing to worry about for now.

Yeah bro.
No single email at all and I made sure I gave them sufficient information.

I provided everything you stated above. Gave them my current residency care for verification.

I ed the E- visa I used to travel before and I just graduated last December.

On the POF I dropped extra 4m extra to cover up running costs.

I used 2 different bank statement too.

Had my TB-TEST abroad before coming back for my family to take theirs at qlife.

Well I feel you have a point as to we are many.


Cheers bro

Good day @Duchess @Everyone

When I was filling my VISA application form this evening, I observed that there is a section where we are required to declare our travel history.

The only travel history I have in my old port was a trip I made to South Korea in 2019 on an official assignment.

I don’t know if it’s okay not to declare it because the port expired in Q1 2022.
Secondly, will I be required to submit my old port, alongside the recent one when applying for VISA?

The status of your new port matters. Is your new port still a virgin or have you travelled with it? If yes, to which country?

Declare all the Countries you have visited - either on an old or a new port. Simple.

Please house, i just want to know if the switch of one's first and middle name on nysc certificate can have an adverse effect on the bearer.
What i mean is; if my name is Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, and on my nysc certificate its written as Goodluck Jonathan Ebele. The position of my surname, Goodluck, did not change.
Does it really matter? Will the UKVI frown at it?.
Pls help cos I'm actually disturbed.

Finally, If you take your time to read through the previous thread of at least 200 pages backward recently, you will realize someone has asked a question or raised an issue similar to yours which as been successfully answered or treated here on nairaland. Your question or issue is hardly new on Nairaland because I didn’t have any reason to ask any questions during my process because the answers were all here. Although there is no harm asking but it will save you time.

This will also help you to avoid any form of delay which might arise.

Thanks to Justwise, Duchess and all other gurus for making this section thrive.

Goodluck to everyone about to apply and waiting for a decision.

Cashmadam:


I have the Nysc certificate already with the wrong arrangement of names. Any solution around that?

Stick to the arrangement on your port.

Hello

Your CAS should be updated immediately,request for that

If you have time constraints then just the evidence of additional payment

Greetings to everyone.
My wife is the student, and we have a daughter but I wouldn’t want to move with them the same date because of the stress finding a better apartment amongst the one I had booked for viewing.

Is it advisable for me the dependant to go before my wife to sort out living arrangement before she arrives.

Her school resumes 18th of September, so everything I need to get straight would be between 18th to probably 1st of September.

Not possible. You can't enter before the MA

Good day.

Please during the process of waiting, Did you do any paid call or mail prior to being scheduled for an interview?

Oh, wow. Thank you very much. Was very much worried when they said I have to start printing my statement from when I started carrying out transactions to avoid queries or whatsoever from the UKVI

Cashmadam:


You don't need to do any transaction on your . Don't let anyone mislead you.

The money in your is for your tuition fee and maintenance. If you don't need to pay for tuition or your rent, then it is okay for the money to be in your till you need it. It is perfectly okay for you not to do any transaction. All my children schooled in the UK so I speak from experience.

Hello, Can I submit a photocopy of birth certificate as the original one is laminated and I feel can’t be used for applications

amnwa:


Do you have big Study gap or switch from your a completely different course of study line

Not at all.
I worked in uae for 4yrs nd just back to naija
