Ok, never heard of it before

Solumtoya:


I was avoiding giving out personal details but here you go: Within two months of arriving on a Student-dependant visa, I got two offers of £40k, I had to renegotiate and increased the other to £50k and accepted. I rejected Huboo's offer. Won't mention the name of the one I accepted. I have long left that job for a better one.

My friend who is a student that came last year has gotten a Permanent offer with an Energy
Company for £50k and Visa Sponsorship. Due to his student status, he works just 3 times a week till he graduates next month and he will start working full-time. Another friend is a student of a 2-year course he only started in January but got an offer with HSBC last month.

I see your point but I want to correct your notion.

How can I reach you baba, i need you to put me through some steps thank You in anticipation

Thanks so much for your input.
I just need you to clarify something for me please f i am not asking too much.

1) are you really sure having exploring other countries will help in boosting the approval rate of one's usa visitor applicaton?
Because on the ds160 form. I did not see anywhere where they asked someone to fill any country he has visited in the past.

So how would this really help someone's case.

Just like the case of invitation letter back in those days, we all feel its very crucial, not later on did we realize its not so necessary.

2) back in those days, people always say its more easier to visit usa from uk.
However, having gone through the usa thread on nairaland. I found out that be it you applying from nigeria or applying from uk the next appointment date will still be over 150days thereabout.

Why then do people say its easier to apply from uk as if it makes the appointment date earlier?

Or am i getting something wrong?


Thanks for ur input.

Really? that's bad.
I know two individuals that are also new, they got cheap insurance. They always recommend Marshmallow and all that, but I believe there is something more they do that they would not tell anyone because I have done everything they said but it's not working.

How much are you getting with which car model

The us visa process is a highly subjective process so there is no formular, there is no tips there is nothing apart from trial and error based on the Voices in the Vo head .......

Two people can do exactly the same thing and get two opposite result that how subjective it is

The only way to get US visa is to try and see which way the ball swings

Hello ancestors lol, after booking for a return flight with KLM for my partner, I just learnt from a friend that she needs a transit visa for the stop-over at Amsterdam, can someone kindly confirm if this is true?

Secondly, what would you advice? Should I apply for a transit visa or simply cancel and book with another airline, bearing in mind that her trip is for the 28th of this month?

Is the process of getting a transit visa an easy one? Also, how much would that likely cost? I did try to get some information online but most of them weren't exactly clear.

Thank you for your kindly input.

We have discussed this matter, on numerous occasions........ With no clear path........

To avoid denied boarding, just book a direct flight.........

Or be a Guinea pig .......

Please what bank can I open to get this card

Strata1716:

It’s not tied to a specific bank. You apply and they either approve you or not but their approval rate even for new comers is quite good.

It’s a standalone credit card service.

Do they go through hard checks before approving or rejecting application?

Walexwal:


Do they go through hard checks before approving or rejecting application?

Yes. All credit cards (and credit products generally - with few exceptions) do hard checks.

A friend of mine who is based in London, England,gave me hope, by asking me to go ahead and apply for a post-graduate program if I have up to #2,000,000. That he would guide me on how to obtain study loan in the UK to aid my tuition payment and other expenses which I will pay back with interest. The icing on the cake was when He said, I can go with my wife and daughter as dependents.
I was very excited but unfortunately since last month after we had the discussion he stopped picking my calls.
Please, does anyone know about this study loan facility and how to go about it? Kindly, provide me with information. Thanks.

What @koonbey said. Mostly hard checks

The universe might be giving you a sign. If you can, do the research yourself then come back to ask specific questions if you need clarification. All of what you need is on the internet and sometimes people are too busy to give you feedback as fast as you’d like. Wish you the best.

In the letter , there is a website link that you can go to and write in there that you do not watch live tv stations and you only use your tv for gaming . They wont disturb you for a year . It is calledno tv license needed. You can search Google for it

Greetings to everyone

My family and I moved to Scotland in January of this year. My wife is a student while I am the dependant.

Please, I need clarification on this.

I hope this is not accessing public funds, and if it is, how do we stop the payment and send the payment back?

We have 3 children, 1 in P7 and the other 2 in S1 and S4.


1. My children have been using the Scotland bus pass, which is free for children under 22 in Scotland.

Young Persons' Free Bus Travel Scheme

https://getyournec.scot/nec/


2. Before the end of the last school term, the head teacher of my children's school sent me a link if we needed free school clothing and free meals for the children for the new term.

which I filled in. The link was under the council website.

Free School Meals and Clothing Grant

https://www.falkirk.gov.uk/services/schools-education/education-benefits-support/free-school-meals-clothing-grants/


Fast forward to August, when they resume the new term, and the sum of £120, £150, and £150, totalling £420, was sent to my account by the council for the free school clothing I applied for .


These two have been bothering me for a while. I hope this is not a long throat.


Now, today I received another £495 from the Council and an email to that effect.

They said the payment is for PAYMENT NOTIFICATION (COVID-19-TASKLING FOOD INSECURITY AND SUPPORT FOR INDIVIDUALS AT FINANCIAL RISK).


Dear Parent/Carer,

I am pleased to advise you that Falkirk Council is providing you with additional financial support of £165 per eligible pupil on or around Friday, October 7, 2022 as follows:


https://www.falkirk.gov.uk/services/schools-education/education-benefits-support/financial-support-pupils.aspx


Please, we need your candid advice and clarification on this as we are yet to renew our visa and we do want any issues with UKVI as regards to that when

applying for a Visa renewal.


Please amiable senior nairalander, I need your input and clarification on this.
