Hello,

Yes. I am and I have gotten my CAS. I am studying Computer Science.

After my successful PCI, this is my timeline:

- 31st Oct: Requested for CAS
- 1st Nov: Got my CAS and applied for visa same day
- 8th Nov: Had my biometrics done
- 13th Nov: Got CAS used email from school
- 14th Nov: Got success email from UKVI

Hi,
Please, I did my PCI with University of Wolverhampton but they requested for a second interview. But I answered all questions I was asked and after my interview the lady gave me a green light by saying I can go start making plans for my visa and all I needed. But to my greatest surprise the outcome of my PCI was for me to do a second interview. This kept me wondering where I must have gone wrong. Or for those that have done the PCI before, did you guys do yours twice or what. I’m curious to know and confused.

Oh wow, didn't know they were this much and most of the schools mentioned have research courses. Someone mentioned the University of Derby in an earlier post as not allowing dependants too.

I just found of University of Manchester permits dependants for MPhil courses, Masters by Research but NOT MRes.

Here's the link: https://www.student.manchester.ac.uk/immigration-and-visas/visas-and-applications/student-visa/dependants/#:~:text=You%20can%20apply%20to%20bring,of%206%20months%20or%20longer

So, according to them Masters by Research is different from MRes. Where it gets confusing is that while some schools clearly states who can bring dependants, some others don't.

How many times can one apply for Graduate visa in the Uk??

Someone’s graduate visa is running out and I advised the person to pick up another masters to buy more time then graduate visa after graduation to buy more time till she settles only for her to tell me one can apply for it once but she’s not sure..

Please how many times can one apply for graduate visa because I was even telling her of the 10yrs route study to stay so she can apply for graduate visa after

9wkgb:


I thought all MRes degrees allows dependants to accompany main applicant.

Ate there exceptions?

No all s dependant. Endeavour to always to always confirm from the school before applying.

Please what should I do?

So far I have only received a mail from VFS that my documents has been sent to UKVI and this now

I’m in the same situation and my pof runs out today. Pls do I renew or I leave it?

Post graduate visa is a one in a life time route .

Cannot be done twice.

If she decides to apply for a masters again , to play safe she should apply for a course that she’ll get sponsorship before the studies finish . E.g nursing and social work MSc

Yes oo!
Without the POF being there it will affect the decision because not being there means u means u don't have enough funds for ur study.

So I have to keep renewing till I get a reply?

Thank you, I have been trying to make payment but it has been failing and telling me I don't have a payment reference.
What could that be??

smoothknight:

Unfortunately, that what it means because I have renewed mine 2 times beyond my calculated period 😭

Which sch is yours? Do you know anybody who has received visa from same sch

Michellasilva:
Please has anyone applied to University of Roehampton, how long does it take to issue the CAS after submitting POF ?

Have you gotten your visa ??

9wkgb:


Good morning, chief. It appears you're familiar with MRes degrees, is it possible you help with a list a schools you know that permit students to bring along dependants or educate us on how to identify schools or courses that allow dependants. The entire "Masters of Research", "Masters by Research" debacle has been quite confusing and don't want to be missed.

Thank you.

okay 👍

Please for those who got visas already, how long did it take after visa approval email before you got mail from VFS Global for either pickup or delivery?

Update on my port collection.
I was at Vfs Abuja office again yesterday to ask for my port but I was told they are still expecting it. From who please?
UKVI said they had made a decision on Monday and up until Friday Vfs didn't send email or get the port. While I am trying to be patient, the whole thing has been emotionally draining.
Hopefully, my port and Visa are ready on Monday.

Omo, I don understand your circumstance. Jaiye lo didirin

Please gurus, I’ve made two paid calls for my sister’s student visa application. They said decision has been made in those calls. But she still hasn’t received an approval email or document collection email.

Decision has been made Since last week. Please what do you guys think it’s delaying her visa outcome. Thanks very much🙏🙏

Ibra123:
Congratulations on your visa alerts.

I applied on 13th December and escalated last week Friday. I called again on Monday 20th and was told that a decision has been made on my application and that I should my visa application center. I was at Vfs Abuja office yesterday and was told that my port would soon be ready and that I can check back today Friday 24th. I was expecting a visa alert mail but I did not get any. Can I still go to vfs office today for collection?

My school resumes on Monday 27th though I sort for extension of my resumption to 3rd of February already.

Please Did you book appointment before going to VFS?

Can anyone recommend a good school offering MRes courses that also provides pathways for dependents to accompany the student?

Thanks

Same as mine. Decision confirmed from UKVI since Monday but no mail for port collection till now. Was hers in Abuja or Lagos?

For visa application, you must book appointment. But to check for my port, I didn't book.
