We were considering going back to Nigeria and i'd stay with him until we were able to come back to the UK. Don't go to Nigeria. If he will need to go to Nigeria, he will understand why you don't want to go. It's much better for you and your baby to stay in UK. If you have real love, even if he goes...

I apologize for this definition. I edited my message. I did not mean you personally. I don't know you and have no idea what your intention. I confused your topic with different topic.

Anyway, I said my opinion about ACCA-PSW already. Good luck! :)

My friend i think you should also know that there is a law which probates you from putting baseless allegations /accusations I am not your friend. Why did you decide that I refer to you?

I think it is not slow comparing to other countries. In USA it often takes longer. In UK, it is sometimes slow, sometimes fast. I noticed when conservatives won election it was very fast for first year, then it's getting slower and slower. Probably because of cuts. I think it is slow in all countrie...

They usually don't even look at your application when they debit account. Usually the nearest time they will look at your application is 1-2 weeks time away from the date they debited your account.

Greenie, it looks like there are some people who are desperate to get PSW by any means possible.

I think this strategy could very easily lead to false deception and ban of 10 years.

Maybe I'm wrong but it looks very much like it.

You need to provide cover letter with you application, explain your situation in it and provide some hard evidence from the bank, like letter from the bank about it. I would treat it very seriously because there are many people who were refused visas because of maintenance funds.

There is no hard evidence that anybody for visas after PSW. There was some blog which is closed now. If you apply for visa, yo...

I think the fact that you did not put this number is not bad on its own. If they find out about work, this is what is bad. It looks like you're not burden to the state of any sort, so you deserve to get visa. However, UKBA is not always that wise. But don't worry too much, there is an appeal in any ...

And if they find out, they may treat it as "false deception" which will lead to a 10 years ban from UK! And potentially EU and British Commonwealth countries because they share common database. :cry:

I would not apply for PSW based on ACCA. Looks very dodgy.

And if your visa would be refused, and it could be refused even based on false deception, you can be banned from UK for 10 years. And also EU/US/Canada/Australia/New Zealand...

Looks very unreliable and risky... :shock:

Unfortunately, I think there is no maximum time. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. But at this stage UK is only concerned in its own security, etc. so they don't want to limit themselves. That's why they describe on the website how to withdraw application. Somebody wrote here that he withdrew it and ...

It's hard to say for sure if it will affect your application or not.

Immigration solicitor could look into your case in details before submitting application.

However, be careful when choosing solicitor. Check that they have good accreditations.

Good luck :)

As far as I know, it is not available.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

It is quite confusing on the website. It was available but then they canceled it. So it's still in the price list.
