Trying same does not mean you will get served immediately, infact it is even inconveniencing cos the account will be in sort of lock down and if you can't afford to tie your funds down you will be at loss with the delays.

Fund the account na or did the reviewer leave a message or something.. Pls share so we can advise you. Ideally they should've lien your account (negative balance) when you applied and block out any balance there to cover the cost.

Hello guys,
I just registered with Mashmallow insurance with my Nigerian Drivers license. I indicated that I have driven for 4 years and no claims before coming to the UK. Now the vehicle insurance is requesting for a "Proof of your No claims discount". How do I go about this?
Your kind advice is needed. Thanks

Who says you can only do menial jobs in the UK? We have to unlearn all of these things. He's a lawyer and he can get good jobs here.

Alright,thank you. Maybe its not that bad then.
Cos he does not want to leave his lawyer work where he is quite comfortable to be doing menial work in UK. Thats his biggest fear.

Yes just anyone WITH a good case of being recognized in his or her field nationally or internationally. Not just your everyday IT professional


semmyk:
To a large extent, Amarathripple0 is on point regarding the Global Talent, just the 'anyone'.
Moreover, Global Talent is not as restrictive as it appears, especially as it's portrayed to be.
There is a thread looking at the US EB permit for talented persons (also on the Travel section)

Thanks, Amarathripple0. Indeed, as is customary on this forum, ain't no 'fighting'. You need not stress. We pass knowledge and move on. How people receive it, it's left. We all must just ensure we do our utmost best with correct, factual, relevant, practical knowledgeable posts.

I tried summarising on last page (and expatiating earlier post some weeks past)

All the best everyone

Travel visa free to UK, work unlimited hours per week, set up company in the UK etc and at the end, he and family can apply to be UK citizens

sokeril:
thank you very much!
please what are these benefits?
he is being reluctant because of his career,considering his legal career is doing good here.
the question he has been asking Is about what is he going to be doing in UK in term of job or profession if he moves there permanently.
Travel › Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by bigtt76(f): 2:35pm On Oct 02, 2022
Not straightforward and requires you to be exceptionally talented with strong recommendations from top people in the industry for you to make a headway. I'd advise you go for skilled worker or scale up visa or better still a startup visa



Amarathripple0:
Yea the process is a bit too detailed and complex. I’ve sha been noting requirements from the list and trying to plan ahead.

He should take up the offer so he can be dependent to his wife and enjoy the benefits till the get the indefinite leave to remain. If not, he will have to be applying for visitor's visa even if his wife gets the ILR


sokeril:
bro what of someone like my brother...his wife is a nurse in UK and is pressuring him to relocate permanently,meanwhile he is a lawyer here in Nigeria and not doing badly.
what's your advice for someone like him since he is not going there for studies if he relocate?.

The best way to build credit scores, is to get credit facilities.......

Get one/two credit cards and start the journey........ Even if it's a credit card with horrendous APR....... Pay it all at the end of month, do this for a year or so .......

Downing tools with sense - I'm sure they can do it in such a way that its manned partially by selected team who will rotate instead of doing full time. They should be bound by the rules and standard of their profession not to leave such unattended to and also not disrupt operations. Only in Nigeria medical doctors will go on strike and refuse to attend to patients in critical condition.

Arysexy:
If power workers down tools, is it not akin to shutdown?

Do you think power is something you leave unmanned? The best is to shutdown and leave. If you leave power system unattended to, you cause damage and fire every where

Contact your account officer. Chances are that it may have been paid and you only need to ask them for your telex. Some banks too don't confirm on the form A site which is confusing.
