I have not escalated o. My agents advised me not to. Globus removd my POF unexpectedly so they credited it back last week. My agents said I should wait for another 28 days before escalating

Do you think the agent knows what he is saying? How can you wait for 28days again,call him to order ok

Me sef confuse
Resumption for don reach na
But i feel the agent too
Maybe he’s thinking the Ukvi will ask for another statement of if she escalate but i don’t think they’ll
They Ukvi might have even confirmed the funds since but most of us just Dey fear to use the money

MrSoftlife:


I have someone who was asked to submit an updated statement.

It's good for one to tread carefully.

Shalom!

If you're one of these PoF agents looking for more business through PoF renewals, just say so.

The funds I used for my application are 100% mine btw - no PoF agent involved.

Now, let's say, after keeping your funds for the 28-day minimum period, you apply for visa.
One week after application, in anticipation of visa approval, you convert your money to pounds or dollars for easy access in the UK.
Because schools will stress - your money must be accessible to you for timely fee payments while in the UK, no excuses.

A few days after converting and depositing into your foreign currency acct, you get asked for a new statement?

How will your new statement meet the new 28-day requirement?

Please, stop conflating the forum with additional rules beyond those stipulated by UKVI.

You will be assessed based on the statement you submitted at time of application.

They may the statement if they have doubts.
According to UKVI Guidance, the verification exercise with your bank will produce one of three outcomes:
- Document is genuine
- Document is not genuine
- Authenticity of document is inconclusive.

Shalom?
Good gracious. The person who was asked for new statement would have to post the message verbatim or screenshot before I can believe them.
Otherwise I don't think you're accurately representing what they were supposedly told by UKVI.

MrSoftlife:


POF agent indeed 😂
Do what works for you (DWWFY).
I am nothing in the business of proving anything to any doubting Thomas.

Shalom!

She’s right
They ask for a new statement of only lf the bank statement is not authentic

They probably won't need to ask for new statement if it is not authentic....no need ,na automatic refusal. Having said that , I am not sure if there could be need to ask for updated statement or not o...but even if they would ask for it, not because the one submitted is not genuine , that alone would attract a ban

Your logic is pure.💯
Thanks for weighing in.

Headward:
Good afternoon everyone, please I need a clear understanding on this issue I'm being told by one agent.
I intend to travel with my spouse, which I have been searching for an MRES program but I haven't been able to get one. Later the agent called to tell me that doing a research program is bit stressful over there and that I should consider the other alternative which is the part where the government will sponsor me so I can come in with my spouse, I argued with him due to information I have been able to gather here that it's not possible, but he was telling me we can do it.
Note, I'm not associated with any government neither do I know anyone in power at all but please is this actually real because he said he can help me run that so far I'm ready to spend some cash.

Please, help me out on this, is this possible because I haven't heard of anyone meeting a Minister or commissioner for a letter and we regard it as government sponsorship.

Any explanation on this will help me alot please My Ogas

Stay away from that agent by all means, you are about to get scammed and possibly earned yourself a 10yrs ban.

Research programs is your way out, work on that and avoid that dubious agent.

Read the rules; this is not allowed for UK.
Maybe for Canada or other countries, but not UK.

Pls when you transferred money from your mobile app to the Wema bank flywire provided, it takes how many days for them to confirm your payment?

I need suggestions please!

I have my first degree in Physics and a post graduate diploma in Computer Science,
I want to go for Computer Science MSc at YSJ,
I want to know if it's preferable to choose the Full time (without an industry placement) or Full time (with an industry placement).

Thank you.

I’d suggest the uni to ask more about the placement year.

Most unis do not provide any assistance getting you the placement, and you’d have to apply and hopefully, be selected for the job/placement.

It can be a lot of hassle finding a tech role in the current job economy.

I’d say, the uni, do your research and decide what’s best for you.

MrSoftlife:


Do you have a good GPA?
Can help you with the MRES program.

Please don't proceed by making any dubious application. You will just end up losing money.

these scholarships/sponsorships are verified.

Yeah, I do and it's business-related courses with fair school fees.

Thank you

If interested in teaching,, look into going for PGDE Secondary Education (Physics), it a one year program and a higher chance of getting certificate of sponsorship as a Physics teacher as the UK is experiencing a shortage of Physics teachers.

Please can someone whom the government in UK gave free housing be allowed to invite someone in Nigeria over

KingDeity:

Lolz 😂. NSF mail dey hungry u you should all other relevant and required documents

Kindly read to understand, the question implies if everyone’s checklist does not include the bank statement anymore, not that I won’t the ing it. Meanwhile you have no idea of my circumstance hence the reason for my question.

Pls help o

Please don’t mislead people with incomplete or limited information.

Yes, the UKVI can request updated documents at any time and for any reason! I speak from extensive experience — I’ve traveled to over 87 countries and have handled more than 200 visa applications in the past three years alone (I’m 38, by the way).

Let me share a relevant example: A student who had received his visa started his wife’s Proof of Funds (POF) and made application for her visa about a month later.

Surprisingly, the UKVI asked his wife to provide her husband's bank statement.

In this case, I advised her to ignore the request (,get refused) and wait until her husband had settled in the UK (around 2 months later) before reapplying. She followed this advice, and now they’ve both been in the UK for over a year.

PLEASE NOTE: I AM NOT YOUR REGULAR AGENT, I JUST DO A LOT OF THINGS FOR KNOWLEDGE SAKE SO, DO NOT ME FOR VISA APPLICATION, ETC!

However, you can openly ask me anything about all visa type applications, international jobs- I could help anyhow

Best of Luck!

Should this question be here?
Let's be organised please.
Search for the corresponding forum and relate your queries there.

Justwise has done and, still doing a great job so, we should also help to make it even better!

Best of Luck!

I actually read this post some days ago but ignored. Now, I think I just have some spare time to write a few lines for your consumption.

Following your claim, l will like to first remind you of something called CONTENTMENT!!!

So, if you make enough money and live great in Nigeria already and cannot secure your future then, how can that be possible when you arrive the UK or anywhere else in the world?

Or you're thinking of having a second port? VANITY!!!

One advise, you need to really know how the abroad works. Living abroad doesn't mean your future is secured or you'll be rich either!!!



I started considering japa last month and it has been great following this thread for over a week now.

Actually what I'm looking for is a more secured future for my family. We make enough money to live great in Nigeria but currently we're in between expanding our business and relocating to the UK via the study route.

I've read some quite discouraging things online especially about how UK is slowing turning into a third world country.

I sincerely need honest advise so we can make the right decision between expanding our business here in Nigeria or start the UK relocation plan.

Is the UK still worth it in 2025 considering we have to apply for two students visa.

Also, I'll appreciate other countries recommendations too. Going for UK because I was told it's the easiest to get study visa.

Thanks everyone.[/quote]
