Please am a bit confused I need your reply please!

      @lifewithchioma  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Blessed. First of all thanks for watching!
      For proof of funds, calculate your tuition for 12 months (minus any amount you've already paid), living expenses for 12 months (you and your partner) and travel related costs for you both. The link in the description will be helpful so you can see the breakdown on the immigration website. Regarding your visa, you can apply to come in together, or if coming in separately, apply for the other person as soon as the primary applicant commences their study.
