popplm:Hi bro, Goodmorning sir. Please I am sorry I missed your message. I am very careful about replying people pm nowadays based on my previous experience with some nairalanders. I am always ready to reply all messages here and with the fact that it's a faceless forum so it makes it easier for you and I to relate. I have always mentioned that with TRCN, you can proceed with the process to get the UK teaching licence but without that, I am 100% sure it cannot work. 3 Likes |

Hello house, I'm considering applying for a UK visa. I wanted to apply for tier 2 but I'm confused as to how to get a CoS because I don't have any work experience. Just finished my nysc and I have nothing doing right now. What type of visa is best for someone like me? |

Hello Seniors in the house please can someone enlighten me on buying house in UK. I searched and I am seeing shared ownership, leasehold, retirement etc I do not want to be in a mess and end up being in debt. Thanks 1 Like |

Lizzyluke2: Hey, this is a difficult question to ask but I'll try to give some help. You can get a house with a mortgage and with help to buy with a deposit if 5% but this has to be a new property otherwise you'll need to provide from 10-25% depending on the terms. When you're ready or almost ready with your deposit, approach the owner of the property you want. They'll direct you to a broker who will advise and connect you with a mortgage provider based on your circumstance - mostly credit score and how long you've been here and if course, your ability to pay based on your earnings. These guys don't charge you, they get their fees from the mortgage provider. If you ask more direct question, I might be able to help. 4 Likes 4 Shares |

teejay231: Erm...I won't exactly say British citizens have a different pathway for migration to Canada because the Express Entry pathway doesn't discriminate on the basis of nationality as I know of British citizens who have migrated to Canada through the Express Entry route. So, the category you referenced is actually a 'Working Holiday category' which is designed for British citizens who intend to travel in Canada and who wish to find temporary paid employment to help pay for their trip (up to 24 months)[i][/i] The Working Holiday category is only for British citizens between the ages of 18 and 30 and they cannot be accompanied by dependants. The holiday category is therefore like an extended holiday work visa which definitely wouldn't fit every Briton's idea of how to migrate to Canada from the UK otherwise, Britons intending to migrate with dependants would have been unable to migrate to Canada. While on the Work Holiday visa some may over time, try to switch their visa category but I reckon that those who qualify for the Express Entry would rather go directly through that route which is also faster and grants them immediate permanent residence more especially so, if they've got dependants they intend migrating with.

UK Proposed Point System from 1 January 2021 The government has set out a new Immigration Bill that will come into force on January 1 2021, marking the end of free movement. Migrants will now have to gain 70 points to be eligible for a visa, in aims of creating a ‘high wage, high skill, high productivity economy’ in the UK, a statement said.

Hi All, I will really appreciate your response to my case below. I came into the UK with my wife in August 2019, on a Tier 2 visa, my wife as my dependant. My wife is a medical doctor, and completed her PLAB 2 in November and got her GMC registration in December. Since then, she has been unable to secure a job majorly due to restriction on areas she can apply to. We stay in Reading, so she only looks out for application within that area on the NHS site. We have also explored Locum jobs and she has signed up with RM medics and undergoing registration with Holt doctors, but nothing yet. I will appreciate any advice that can bolster her chance of getting a job or recommendation on any agency who can also help either with locum or full time. |

TJ18: Usually the first job is hard but once you have that and a couple of others then it start flowing... I would say for her first locum she needs to be willing to go any where even if it for one day or one week. A friend sent to Belfast for a month just to get that experience and she lives in London . I have others who went far. Once she has that experience even if for a month then you can be restricted in location. ID medical used to be good in locum, there are others out there as well 3 Likes |
