Good advise. Many people get stuck in London because they think opportunities abound there. True enough there are a thousand and one opportunities there but you go sweat taya to grab one. Gone are they days person de hustle Cannary Wharf, now na up North, you go flex taya 😂

Benin would be looking for a draw at least while Nigeria is a must win as they meet in the last match. Benin can go on with 18 points (if they draw) and 20 points if they win. Nigeria on the other hand has a maximum 17 points if they win and 15 points if they draw.

South Africa can get 18 points if they win and 16 points if they draw in their last game.

Rwanda has a chance of ending with 14 points if they win their last game and 12 points if they draw.

With the kind of goalkeeper I'm seeing today, Nigeria would have to park the bus to avoid a sabotage by Nwabali (same way Uzoho and Maduka both did us in that year) 😂

My money on South Africa and Benin for the two top position 😏

I wonder what measures were taken to resuscitate him before rushing to the hospital. The average first responders out there are not trained to handle incidents like this and the way you handle a victim initially may impact their survival rate.

At embolden, exactly 💯 that's simply the truth of their target but being who they are can't afford to chest it. Zia tries by calling out non-EU but we all know their main target.


Zahra29:
The proposed ILR changes are not only being targeted at skilled workers - other groups such as SWV dependents and asylum seekers will also be impacted. The latter currently do not have to be in employment and pay taxes in order to achieve ILR. Refugees can access benefits before ILR etc so some of the proposed eligibility conditions will impact some groups more.

Gadget resellers are in the retail market segment, and they sell their gadgets in Naira equivalent to the dollar using black market rate. Dangote buys oil from NNPC in dollars, same NNPC imports petrol (subsidized) and competes with the refinery to sell in Naira, makes no sense.

Lol ...I think to an extent, the digital ID might be a good idea to aggregate the UK identity platforms (passport, eVisa, driver's license, NI, NHS number etc) into one but definitely might not help in stopping illegal immigrants from working illegaly any more than the 'prove your immigration status' sharecode had.

Borrowing from the experience back then in Ghana when every foreigner was required to get the Foreign resident Ghana Card, failure which led to their mobile telephony, mobile money and bank accounts suspended, it did not stop the illegals coming into Ghana but rather made proxy financial transactions more prominent.

Similar might be applicable to foreigners in the UK but not the citizens cheesy Even at that, it would do little to block the illegal immigrants. Not forgetting the legal actions that would be instituted to fight all the human right violations not getting the card would result to.

Jamesclooney:
Starmer truly wan use his own hand to topple his government. Digital ID to stop illegal immigrants working? WTF?! The guy is so tone deaf.

Thank you for the response and I appreciate it all. I had to ask just so one can avoid all these tax roforofo going on now 🤭😂



brine:
Yes, the initial funding can come from personal savings. That's where mine came in from and I think they wouldn't mind it coming from other sources as long as it's legit. So, it could be from another director, a gift from family or friends or a loan from the bank.

The ideal amount depends on your business running expenses and there's no specific amount stated by HO. In my opinion, I think it's just good to show funds that can keep the business running for at least 6 months(paying yourself and any other company expenses).

Truth be told, the guy took the right decision else it would have been war between the wife and his sister in the future. Both sides should have also try to de-escalate the issue.

Nice and insightful, been following this with keen interest.

1. Can I please ask where the initial funding for the registered would come from?
2. Can the business owner pre-fund the company from their private savings until it starts making profit?
3. How much would be ideal to pre-fund?

Thank you for your response in advance 🙌🏾🙏🏾

brine:
Brotherly, you don’t need to pay yourself until the start date on your cos and after your visa has been approved. This is important, especially if you’re not currently sponsored by any company, as you’re not permitted to take on paid work without being under a valid sponsorship for a fulltime role. I did not trade with my company or pay myself via my company until I had gotten my visa. What I did instead was provide screenshots of email conversations with a few people who had inquired about my services when I applied for the sponsorship license.

For example, if you obtain the sponsorship licence at the end of October, you’ll likely receive 1 cos allocation. You Your authorizing officer would then log into sms which is the sponsorship management system, generate the cos, and pay the associated fee.Then, you'll likely set the start date on the cos as 1 December or 1 January to allow sufficient time for your visa application to be processed. Once your visa is approved and your cos start date begins, you can then run payroll at the end of that month.

Your authorizing officer is the person that logs into sms to generate the cos and same person that the home office will be reaching out to via email or phone in future. When they send an update on the sponsorship license application, it will be to the autorizing officer's email you provided.

Modified to include this:
If you can, can you use a custom domain email platform? So, you have email@your-company-name. They are really cheap! I would recommend having an email account opened for your authorizing officer with their name@your-company-name and avoid having them usie their private email address. Feel free to ask here or shoot me an email if anything is unclear.

£607.42 per month on transport is like £7290 per year which when you deduct from your annual salary would almost be equal to what you would get with the increase. If you think the difference in the two salaries after transport is deducted would be worth it, then go for it. Else look at the option of moving closer to your work area or buying a car to see if it cuts down the expense which I doubt it would. Senior role comes with more wahala sha 🤭


Bumzz00:
Hi Everyone,

I need advise from gurus and well experienced people please.

I currently work in a local NHS with an annual income of £29907 before tax, due to increase to £33000 before tax in few months. I currently do not spend a penny on transportation with free staff bus available to and fro work and i enjoy as much flexibility as i wish to have with a daily commute of about 30 mins to and fro. I save quite a good amount monthly and spend even more less on feeding and housing cost about £700-£800 monthly.

I recently got a job offer in central London with a salary of £42000 before tax (a more senior but similar role as my current). By my rough calculation transportation monthly will cost me roughly £607.42 monthly excluding feeling and other misllc and daily commute of about 3hrs to and fro

Now i am confused if i should take the offer or not. Saying Local or commuting to the city.
