Please, has anyone used UBA prepaid dollar card to pay for IHS and Visa?
Does it work or it must be the normal dollar card?

Glossylips:


Thank you for your response.

I need your advice on a matter. I work with local government, and my appointment letter lists a lower annual salary. Is it advisable to submit this appointment letter? My promotion letters from 2009 to the present do not mention any salary. I’m considering submitting only the promotion letters to show the study gap as I’m concerned that the appointment letter with the lower salary might be a red flag.

Thank you.

Low salary doesn't matter. My wife used her Npower 30k monthly stipend for her application, she's now in the UK.

Thank you for your response. I have another question
I work with a local government in Bauchi, and my appointment and promotion letters feature the Bauchi State Local Government Commission letterhead. However, I need to use a reference from the local government I work with, which is Bogoro Local Government, and it has a different letterhead. Will this be an issue? Thank you.

The salary is insignificant here because your school gave you CAS, and you have your POF in your. bank .

It is not a red flag!

Ask for a letter of introduction from your place of work addressing this discrepancy to avoid the likelihood of an interview.

I don't there's an issue with this, after all, Bogoro LG is under the commission. If u think this might confusing to the case worker, explain this in an introduction letter.

Good morning, sorry for asking so many questions.
Please, can the introduction statement be included in the reference letter or it must be on a separate letterhead paper on its own. Thank you

I'm currently having trouble connecting with Ukvi through a paid call. I've attempted to dial the following numbers:
+443007906268
+442038754669

Has anyone encountered a similar issue and found a way to successfully connect with them via phone? Any tips or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for any assistance.

It should be a separate letter introducing yourself and your mission and giving explanation on whatever might not be straightforward in your application.

Did you receive Decision Email from UKVI?

The amount you pay usually depends on the length of your stay in the UK. The fee is 776 (In pounds) for every stay that lasts for 6-12 months and 388(pounds) for any additional period that is less than 6 months.
I’ll advice you get enough information on the Uk website.

Also, this payment will be charged in USD. But i believe you can use Pay4Me app to make both payments conveniently. I used the app for my cross border payments and it went well

Yes brp Mail Drop yesterday night

I think it's Possap.
possap.gov.ng/p/select-service

You will need BVN to as NIN is no longer going thru. It's 30k payment online. When you get to the office for biometrics don't give any police any money again o. Just dribble them with jokes and waka inside.

vinexe:
hello good morning.. please which site U used for police character? And what are the requirements and how much is the cost..

Hello
I would like some help on what to enter in the Grade section (the empty section in the screenshot attached). I ask this because i know the grade of each course as i have already included but i am stuck here and need some clarifications. Thank you

Hi guys..Pls I need insight on this because I’m totally confused at this point

After receiving two empty Nsf mails, 2 paid calls and i was told this morning on call that my issue has been escalated.. Biometrics was done on 16th of July

What do you think is going on?

Please house, how do I make a paid call? I've tried calling two of the phone numbers on ukvi s but it won't even connect (ring).. Please help a brother on how to go about this

Make me understand who is writing these letters, the company, or you are the one?

If the latter is the case I will advise you to make your application simple by using only official documents.

In your reference letter to the embassy, your company can simply state you work for xyz and ijk is the parental company as shown on your employment letter.

You can your ID card and pictures of you at the workplace to help the officer handling your application quickly decide.

Also, if your salary was paid into your bank , you can tick this out on the statement showing the dates the money came into your .

they honor verifiable documents from source
