Thanks Sis. This means my Mum will come as visitor, while they come in as dependants. I kinda like this option. I just fear issues at entry.

Can all the applications be done from UK? Tests, etc.

A standard Uk visitor visa for a child. 2 adults names are put in the application and a child can only travel with one of both of those two adults. Any child travelling outside of those two names will be refused ..... The only work around this was for the child to travel and pay unaccompanied minor , that standard UK visiting visa.

I dont know if there anything / restriction like that for tier 4 dependent so check the home office .

So before you plan towards your mum you need to check what the rules are

1. No you can use your school address for your application but you'd need a confirmed address (for your self-isolation) to fill in your enger locator form prior to arriving in the UK.



In his visa application, it was filled that he has no family member in UK. But along the line, he got a friend willing to accommodate for quarantine in another city different from his school city. About 1 hour apart.

Does this gives a red flag with immigration at entry port?

Yours was genuine but sadly they got it wrong. Well let hope they will reverse ur visa back.

What about those ones that have paid agent years back just to get travel history to secure Canada visa then and later still got refused ... what should such ones do though the stamp was genuine but d travel was not real. My friend is really sacred though he haven't apply for UK visa yet still waiting for the school offer ...... pls what is d way forward oh and have anyone scale through ? Or should he get another port to avoid story after visa approved

It’s impossible for you not to travel and have a “genuine” stamp. If you didn’t travel, any stamp indicating the travel is FAKE, even if na immigration official at MMIA stamp am with his legit stamp. Na still fake stamp.

Way forward? Get a new port without the stamp. However, if Canada already flagged the fake stamp in their database, then no way out, the record go jam you at UK embassy.

2. It's okay as long as you've got enough funds in your for all 3 of you.
3. Your son is also your wife's dependant so no harm in filling his details on her form even though the funds are in your .

Hi guys.
Help please.
I am filling my Visa application at the moment.
The issue is,I renewed my port but the old one has not expired.
I was wrongly advised by the agent to renew it,I it,I didn't know that if it has 6 months validity its still valid.
My old port has up to 2 years validity.
So the issue now is,my CAS was issued using my new port number so automatically it's what I should fill during my visa application ,but my old port has my travel history to South Africa.
My question is,if I declare my travel history to SA I would need to my old unexpired port right?
Is there any negative effect of having an old unexpired port and a new port.

Please help,its bugging me so much I cant sleep.

It’s not a crime to renew port before its expiry. As long as immigration have cancelled the old port accordingly, you’re good. There’s nothing to worry about.

Get a new port, so you can rid yourself of the potential problems that the fake stamp may bring your way.

if you can use the internet (which i've seen that you can), there's hardly much justification for using agents. The information you need to apply for visas is freely available...on the internet.

A friend is not a family member so I would say no issues here

Good morning ‘good people’,
I’ll like to seek the opinion of gurus here. My port has my middle name spelt as “Micheal” whereas all my other documents (including NIN) have it spelt as “Michael”. I have done an affidavit to rectify this (saying I am same person). I want to ask if this is sufficient?

Use the same address since you both won't be getting your accomodation till you get to the UK except you'll be travelling before your spouse applies.

It's okay since you aren't related. If the decision to self-isolate there is probed further at the POE for any reason, you simply say the truth which is that the option didn't open up till after you got your visa.

Writing IELTS depends on the school; some accept WAEC while others accept a letter certifying that your last course was fully taught in English. Check the English language requirements of the schools you're interested in to know what they require.
Cheap is relative. Check schools in line with your budget using google or findamasters.com

Hello people, pls I need advice. I am a lawyer I want to apply for LLM in UK . Someone suggested LLM in Medical /Health Law or LLM in Cyber Law or LLM in Information Technology. He said going for general LLM is not advisable. Any one in the house with information should advice me accordingly. Thank you.
Elizabeth28: 10:49am On Oct 30, 2020
I made a mistake while applying for my Visa about the course start date.
I put October 2nd instead of November 2nd.
I'm so worried.
I saw it just now as I'm going through the PDF and I read this over and over again before moving to the IHS website.
Cannot even fathom how I missed that.
Now the answers are locked.
Gurus advise me please
Do I open another email and apply.
Mote that I havent paid the IHS fees yet but I cant edit my answers again

An LL.M is basically a huge roll of the dice, but if you must do one, try Dispute Resolution, IP, etc. The advice about not wasting your time and money on a generalist LL.M is correct. Above all, avoid international law.

Greetings. Still on the application matter:

1. On the Dependant application, “visa expiry date” is the course end date of the main applicant right? I earlier this year, there was a debate on that. Please can any one confirm this?

Also Nqf 7 is masters level and same as scqf level 11. This is in Ihs payment area where there is no Scqf option.

Anyone please. Thanks
