UK To Increase Visa Fees, Health Charges For Migrants by MrSundry: 7:10pm On Jul 14, 2023 |
The United Kingdom Thursday said it will ‘significantly’ increase visa fees and immigration health surcharge (IHS) to help fund pay increases in its public sector.

The UK has definitely run out of ideas on how to improve their earnings. That's why they are turning to taxing immigrants. By the way, I was just studying how countries around the world tax their people. I realise that the UK should be the highest in the world. Honestly, I hail Nigerians who live in the UK. How can someone cope in a country where you can pay income tax of about 45% coming from a country where you pay peanuts in taxes? 259 Likes 24 Shares

I thought they wanted to stop immigrants from coming in? So if they stop the migrants, how would they see funds to implement increase in health workers salary? It seems they aren’t serious. 277 Likes 9 Shares |

SmartPolician: You only pay more tax if you earn above a threshold. And even with the taxes, the country is still 100000000 times better than naija. 116 Likes 9 Shares |

I'm pretty sure Nigerians will start avoiding the UK, at least those for MSc. the incentives for them are already wiped off. higher cost equivalent in naira, no dependent, increased visa cost and insurance. why will anybody be willing to waste £45k for a masters degree in the UK when there are good alternatives like SE Asia, Belgium, Germany, Austria and Canada? 65 Likes 3 Shares |

Do you blame them, we all desire to migrate to the UK, the day I went to the IOM office in Abuja to run my TB test really pity for Nigeria as a country. I was more curious about the number of candidates that came for their Test as well, I was given tag 41 waiting for my turn the number then was up to 80+ and still counting before I was called to enter another room. Still, people were coming in. Mind you these were on the UK candidates, the Canadas, Australians, etc have their buildings separate. IOM still has an office in Lagos as well I don't know the number of applicants there but I believe it will amount to a reasonable figure. A test in an IOM center for adults costs over 57,800 per candidate. Statistically, IOM makes an average of 9-10 million naira every day for TB scan alone. With that figure in my head, I can only weep for this country. Another one that pains me so much is the IELTS exam, why subject Nigerians to an English proficiency test, an MSc applicant from Nigeria has over 16years if not more in his/her study life, using English as a mode of instruction, all these are avenues to remit money back to their countries I guess. Nigerians spend so much money just to travel out but do I blame them fix this country and all this queuing in Embassy will reduce drastically. 88 Likes 8 Shares |
