We've already enquired 12 studio flats nearby. Now we just need to confirm this rule... Thank you. for 2

Hmm.

it's a bit strange that when you pay for the visa and ihs it's in usd instead of gbp. Is this because of outside UK applications.
It's always in USD from applications outside UK. Nothing to worry about.

Re: Anyone had a decision yet applying from TLS Nairobi?

Hi HI1406,
Just out of curosity and tracking purposes, does your tracking show "Application Transfered to VAC" on TLS website?
Ours is still stuck on "Application received by DMC", making us a bit worried.
