It’s not compulsory… They sent me a letter about twice, I told them I’m not interested and I don’t watch TV.

They threatened brick and stone but I didn’t answer them and they stopped sending letters….

If you carefully read my previous posts, I engaged @Lexusgs430 and him only. But when you come and start calling people leeches, I won't engage you like I engaged the former with decorum. I'll simply give you all synonyms of leeches and more. Just check your comments well before posting them, going forward.

I believe rent money is dead money too….

Have I bought a house yet? NO…

I’m I pressuring myself to get a house as soon as possible? NO

I’m I working towards savings and buying a property for myself and be on the property ladder? YES
—————————-
Do I get jealous or envy people doing well and getting high-paying job in their first year of getting to the UK? NO

Does that motivate me to get trainings, work harder and up-skill if needs be so I don’t get too complacent on MINIMUM PAYING JOB? YES

I get very vital informations here through people like Lexusgs430 and I know multitude does as well…

The internet these 3 musketeers claimed information is freely on, NONE of them contributed to that information if you ask them… They are leeches and they’ve never served any purpose since they’ve joined this thread… They have never contributed a minuscule amount of information here….

I feel you have failed in getting to know what this thread or platform is about.. Let me educate you…

As we have Nairaland, so we have Quora… what these forums have in common: you meet different sets of people who share their viewpoints, enlighten people, advice, encourage, entertain and bants.

But people like you who wear their feelings in their sleeve and take things personal can’t cope on these kind of forums for long then you decide to take out your frustration on supposed people you mentioned.

None of these people have done anything wrong, if you are unhappy at home. Seek advice from MINDS

No one is winning a medal for anyone. Lexusgs430 have always been contributing immensely on this thread and I can relate better with his posts, I can’t say the same about YOU.

I enjoy his emojis and I implore him to carry on. People like you who contribute nothing to the thread are always the sharpest of mouth when it comes to complaining about someone….

Lexusgs430 is not perfect so are YOU too… Moreso, this is a public forum and all forms of expressions are welcome. If it makes you unhappy, LOGOFF…

He’s not sure of that, don’t make any sense of it.

It doesn’t make sense, what of the ones that gave birth here on dependent visa. Would they ask them to send the kids home? To whom?
Ceejay2:



In that case both husband and wife would apply for sponsorship so none would be a dependent anymore and there’s no way they would send the kids back home

How did you come up with this or where did you get the information from?
iiiyyyk:



Only British citizens or those on ILR can apply for spouse/family visa, if they have an income of 38k+

Family visa is different from dependent visa.

The dependants of those who came in with 3yrs care visa would be stranded once their visa ends after 3yrs


I believe people should avoid UK for now.

Wether care visa or student Visa...many won't find it easy.

Zahra29…. What’s the fate of people with dependents here on visa renewal after in about 2 years or so?

This their confusion is confusing oo…

Will they ask their dependents to return home during renewal??😹😹😹

Lol, no one complained about surgeons, doctors, nurses. That's why they are unaffected by the new immigration rules.

Here you go; This is the message from home office.

I would consider your Trust engaging the services of NHSP to run its bank as a supplementary employment.

I see NHSP as a second employer, I might be wrong tho.

My Trust run its bank and my HR has confirmed this.

Please check with the Home Office and update us with their response.

My trust engages the service of NHSP, and they generate Payslip differently.

Whatever their answer might be, kindly update us.

So I reached out to my HR and this is the reply, however I have been advised that I double check with the home office and I will do that.

I also know for a fact that my trust provides our bank shifts. I know some Trusts uses agency like NHSP etc to run their bank but ours is not the case.

Thanks for your input once again.

If you are being taxed on a different tax code (BR), I will assume you cannot exceed more than 20hours because it will be counted as your second job….

I suppose your bank shift is with another company under the same trust.
Tier4Dependant:
Regarding working additional hours on health & care visa, can one exceed the 20 hours weekly restriction when working bank shifts.

The bank shift is with the same NHS Trust who is also the employer.

Hello NL’s I need you to help me.

So I moved here for my masters with my daughter, she is 11 now, will be 12 in December.



Thank you 😊

UK is Different from Nigeria my sister, please be very careful. Avoid anything that would progress into the police 👮‍♂️knocking to your door.

My landlady messaged my wife couple of weeks ago saying she would like to visit us at the our home, and only gave 48 hours or 72 hours notice.

She asked us to choose which one works. We chose 48 hours, she came smiling (fake). My wife opened the door and she greeted us, asking us if we were surprised to see her, my wife responded “ Yes, we are not expecting you since you came for inspection around August 28 and that’s just a month difference, we are private family and we don’t expect you coming every now and then, and she had to cancel a shift”.

She responded by saying she was sorry to have bothered us and also sorry my wife had to cancel her shift, BUT a neighbor who didn’t mention his name had rung the letting agent saying there has been a lot of people coming to our house, and the neighbor specifically mentioned our house address. So the agent sent her an email about it, that was why she had to come and ask us if we are having trouble with any of our neighbors? We said NO..

I mentioned to her that I had graduated couple of weeks ago and had invited my parents to witness their child’s success and we don’t think that’s a bad thing to have our parents come visit us, SHE replied of course we can have visitors and families can visit, saying she has a daughter in Spain and she does visit time to time.

In her words, “ The person that called didn’t mention their name, and the person must have been a coward for him to not have knocked on our door and tell that to us if they are concerned, thereby ringing the letting agent.

She apologized for coming because of that and left…

I’ve just been wondering how can neighbors busybody be that much to the extent of calling the agent to report another tenants visitors…

Calm down about denigrating people from your country, they have stupid people, hill-hearted and poor people in UK as well.

You might as well be stupid too, who knows. Because they did something that doesn’t sit with your school of thought doesn’t make them I’ll-hearted or stupid…

Stop calling Nigerians stupid people, you are the stupid one… Slave mentality

Regex:


I am very much ready to die on the hill that social media is the fall of black man. Nigerians tend to the most stupid, poorest and ill-hearted of the black race. Just imagine what these guys doing now. Our selfishness is unmatched. So will the interview with ITV solve the problem at hand or what? This will make the UK further probe their pof and would warrant them to tighten up their immigration rules. Abi the one them do UK lock up via dependant never teach them anything. The first man who bred stupidity in the form of Nigeria is one I will forever curse.

I hope so ooo…

Yes you are right about the second one, I was on a motor way a certain day with 70MPH limit, but their was a Queue Ahead shown on the smart motorway thingy with reduced speed limit to 50MPH. There was this car speeding behind me, sped about 70 past that yellow camera, the next thing I realized was double flash 📸… I immediately clicked that it was for that speeding car on just about 70MPH.
Viruses:

Usually 10% + 2.
So if that section of the road is 70, you should be good until 79.

I just got to find out that if the speed limit on smart motor ways change from 70 to say 50, the speed camera adjusts to 50 speed limit as well.
