Thanks a lot
Let gives thanks to God...but I would advise you to go to US because to secure their visa is not an herculean task unlike canada and the best route to take is to apply as a student, canada will strain you their visa application process is rigorous, don't think I want to discourage you...NO I will never do that, am talking from experience because am also processing both canada and US at the moment.

If I may ask you what is your highest level of education?

In addition, you need to act fast because some school admission deadline are already closing, that is if you haven't apply to school yet.
Pls and pls I would also advise you to handle your application by yourself, it is very straightforward don't use agent because he/she might complicate your visa processing and the amount of money u will have to pay for agent isn't the same if you do it by yourself.....if you need any informtion regards to the above discourse feel free to ask

I dont mean it dat way, i mean can i get companies that will be ready to process a work permit as a sponsor for me while on visiting visa over there. I know u cant work with visiting visa it is always stated on the visa.

The answer is NO. Quite possibly from a Tier 4 visa (and you need to be in a field with skill shortage), but almost certainly not with a visit visa.

I would have gone through the student visa route but the tuition is pretty high. I know none other can file for me except a direct relation, but how about I ask them to help process the admission for me?
Is it allowed?

I'm an SSCE holder

You've really been of great help so far. Thanks so much.

If I understand u very well, u have someone in US?
This is my advise....no need to contact anybody to process your admission or apply for school on your behalf because to apply is very simple, there are thounsands of universities and colleges with cheaper tuition fee in the US, infact you stand a chance to win scholarship if your have a good academic grades in your SSCE. Let me break it down for u.
Which course do you intend to study?
Do you have good grades in your SSCE especially in(math and english)?
Have it in mind that before u can be admitted into any instuition in US you will need to write a standerdize test(TOEFL, IELTS or SAT) and if you ace any of this test you will consider for a partial scholarship and it will boost your chances at the embassy.... My dear sister, if you want to apply for schools, quickly do because some schools admission deadline has closed
Remember, US instituition has three acdemic admission session.
1. Fall term, students who apply for fall term will resume school in august/sept it depend on your school of choices and prior to that resumption date you must have apply for admission let say january till may cus a lot of schools admission for fall term close in may,so from may to august applicant would have been given admission then ready for your visa processing.
2. Winter term is january
3. Summer term which is may/june

North American standards it is. 60 plus millione people for a country which isn't geographically big. Plus add other Europeans who live and work there as they're part of the EU. Am I wrong?

Over 90% of land in UK is untouched..plenty of room if you ask me.
It might be overpopulated in terms of available housing (a much debated issue in politics right now because of the high costs caused by housing shortage).
The issue isn't availability of space, it is lack of housing to accommodate the influx of people.

ATERI:


I definitely wasn`t around 30 years ago, but around enough to know that the more the impression of change the more things seem to remain the same. Stephen Lawrence mum would say that because she is now a Dame. Do you think the family of Mark Duggan would accept that things have changed in Tottenhan? Where do you think Stephen Lawrence is buried today and why? So they stabbed him to death and rubbished his burial place so his dad has to take his body to Jamaica. We don`t need to argue about London because certain things are beyond argument. The London of 1960s that our parents lived in is just slightly different from that of today.


How can you compare Steven Lawrence to Mark Duggan?

Stephen Lawrence was slaughtered by racist yobs, and police started to fail in their duty to arrest and prosecute the killers. His parents had to suffer for almost a decade before police eventually did their job

Mark Duggan was executed by the police in broad-day light because they suspected he was carrying a gun and going to rob somebody. Police started to lie from the spot of execution. The gun found metres away was believed to have been planted by the police

So the commonality between these two cases is what everybody in london knows namely, that the Metropolitan Police is not only incompetent but institutionally racist.

Affordability is linked to demand and supply. Thatcher sold of social housing stock which provided some form of affordability with rent controls.
Population has since grown, new housing stock weren't built to accommodate the Influx hence increased demand. the sold social houses are now in private hands who exploit demand to charge exorbitant rent. Even when the govt supports by paying dss, it ends up in the pockets of private landlords.
CAMERON and his cronies announce that they are building affordable housing, most start from about 250k, average national wage is 26k, banks only lend 4x salary, how is that affordable?
