Hello, convera works but not when you want to be debited in naira. You must use a dom . Convert the amount you want to pay in pounds to dollars on the convera platform. Used access and it took about 3 working days to get to it's destination

Thank you so much Mrsoftlife

How does UKVI confirm bank statements when they the bank?
Do they request the bank to send a new statement so they compare with the ed one or they send the ed bank statement to the bank and tell them to confirm if it indeed it emanates from the bank.
Just curious to know.

I booked today and they booked us for Thursday..have you gotten an appointment now?

Which of the hospitals please?

Good morning Duchess and other precious people, please I called UKVI and I was told that a decision has been made yet the TLS tracking showed it it's still at the DMC. For those with similar experiences, what was the duration between when you got a response that a decsion has been made and when you got an email or the TLS was updated? Thanks

Good Morning gurus in the house... Please I want to submit a reference letter from my bank together with my bank statement as part of my application, what address should I put as UKVI's address please? Because the letter has to be addressed to them

@Brainny, what number did you call?

I think we are in the same boat. I applied with my family same time and has biometric same day.

Mine is out while I am still waiting for my dependents tls correspondence since 18th till now.

I am going there in the afternoon to pick mine and I want to call ukvi to ascertain the status of other applicants too.

Kindly share the number you called.

Thank you.

You don't really need a reference letter from your bank.

However, if u insist, address it to The consulate UK embassy in Nigeria. That's how to address embassies in your country.

Good luck

My bro nah two of us dem never reply cause I am the main applicant and my wife is the dependant and non of us get any email or something and I did paid mail like 5 times no respond

International transfers usually take long to deliver that's why some schools do not recommend it. I'm sure the school will receive the money with time. Just keep reminding them to check.

Jamms316:

My next option is how to ask for reversel from the bank.

Don't know if international transfer can be reversed make I collect my money hold back abeg.

Hello

Request for escalation not just to check the status

Hello

Tracking is on TLS end

Ideally It should be within 24-48hrs

However, I have seen people collect their port without the tracker even changing

Look out for your collection mail not just the tracker


Cheers

Good suggestion, the money might even be hanging with the payment gateway. Tell your bank you want to fill a form for your transaction to be investigated, when you fill it, they will check and find out if it's with the payment gateway and then send the money to your school that's if the money is hanging with the payment gateway.

zieraw2005:
Please go
back to your bank, request for details of the transfer you made to the school. There's likely and error that would make it no to deliver. I once had similar issues till I went back to fix it and It went well.

You have kids, your kids should depend on you financially. You can't say you have kids and say no one depends on you financially.

kinkyhead:
I'm an employee but no one depends on me financially. If i answer no, the space to fill my kids details under dependant will clear off. Does it matter? If i answer yes, will I be required to provide any financial document? It's complicated for me pls

Thank you very much.
