U must pay deposit then they will send u CAS letter. Unless u are on scholarship then u need to provide documents.
Anyway just contact them asap. London unis are supposed to process faster than the rest as they have more international students.

I did not pay anything. Hmm, perhaps different uni has different criteria.

Ugh... So annoying. I wish they would at least send me an unofficial copy of the CAS so I can get other things started.


That said, anyone applying to defer reservists? How does that work?

I went on Friday too! My appointment was at 10am but I reached at 9.15am. Was asked to loiter around somewhere else? Were you there at this timing too? I will have to re-appoint my appointment tomorrow because I have applied 3days early =.=""

Hey guys, i have received my CAS number from my uni but the information a bit wrong. The sequence of my name is different from my passport. E.g my full name on passport is Tan Ah Beng but when i apply ucas because of the first name and last name thingy it becomes Ah Beng Tan, therefore they put in my CAS information name as Ah Beng Tan.....but does it matter? will it affect my visa application if i leave as it is?

Lastly can i confirm that due to singapore being a low risk country we do not need to bring supporting documents for our visa interview? as according to the link below

Thanks!

Wow! that was quick....Thanks Jonobebe!

The sequence of my name on ucas and cas letter differs from my passport too. so far it has been ok because singapore is a low risk country and they give out the visas according to our passport. the main important thing is that your passport number on the cas letter must match with your passport. if u have renewed your passport, go and get a sponsors note from your uni.
if your cas do not require u to bring specific documents, then it is alright. just bring passport, passport size photo, appendix 8 form filled up. the rest, u can call up vfs and double check with them.

What does that mean?

i renewed my passport recently as the expiry date of my old passport is in 2015, whereas my course will only end in 2016. i did this because i don't want the hassle of traveling to the embassy in london when my passport expired (in 2015) to get the visa reapplied to my new passport (if i renew at that time).

as my cas letter was issued before my new passport is done, it contains my old passport number. let's say E1234567A.
after i renewed my passport, my passport number changed to E7654321Z.

so i scan in my new passport biometric info page, mail to the uni, and tell them i renewed my passport and my passport number is changed.
the uni will notify UKBA and also issue u a sponsor's note.

the note is for the visa agency people to know that your passport number has been changed, and that your uni have verified your identity. so they will go check with the info that your uni notified the UKBA, once it matches, tadah!!! u are safe.


if u don't have a sponsor's note, and/or never notify your uni if your passport number has been changed, then your visa won't be approved.
