Hi everyone,

A loan isn't Public funds. How else do you want them to make money cheesy

Grant ke. lòun lòun lipsrsealed


Okunns:
Yes, those on dependent/study visa are not allowed to work in some sectors, sports inclusive; you can't take a job as professional sports person on that type of visa. Also you are not to access public fund; loan or grant.

The visa validity date should be a mistake and can be corrected. Do contact the UKVI.

The phrase itself is not being quoted but of justwise's grin. I'm pretty sure he meant roost wink

Mamatukwas:
Are you guys purposely saying ‘roast’? It’s Roost not Roast. I’m sorry I tried to mind my business but it’s now being quoted.
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Bourne007(m): 7:55pm On Dec 15, 2022
I excluded that because they are both in a previous application. And as justwise said 'at some point the chicken will come home to roast'

CornOak:
Thank you, these options have been noted.

I was thinking the lady could claim sole responsibility on the child and back it up with court docs with a consent later from the gaty

Do you think this is feasible/possible?

Pardon myany questions o. cheesy
CornOak:
Both the wife and the kid were included in his application, just confirmed. shocked
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Bourne007(m): 4:45pm On Dec 15, 2022
1. Legalise his stay so all his family comes over
2. Wife only applies
3. Try a different country

CornOak:
So what do you suggest in this case?
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Bourne007(m): 11:24am On Dec 15, 2022

Yes his status will definitely have an impact. According to the guidelines, both parents must apply together. It wouldn't affect wife's application but the kids will be refused.

Refer to so as to give you an idea https://www.nairaland.com/6954875/uk-student-visa-tier-4/918#114792440

CornOak:
Hello elders.

Please I need clarifications on this issue.

A friend is planning to apply for student visa for herself and her kid. However, the husband is already in the UK and out of status (visiting).

Question: Would the hubby's status (overstay) affect the family's student visa application?

How can they go about it? Your answers, advices, and suggestions would highly be appreciated.

Many thanks.

In addition to what Ralph said, tell them

If they don't pay for your services rendered for so so days' work, you would have no choice but to contact small claims court.

I doubt Home office can do anything regarding pay. All the best and do not let this slide ọ smiley


Progressivegee:
I maintained my stance that I want to quit but was told I must work for a month before quiting or forfeit the pay for the days I have worked. I said I wasn't going to work and the madam opened the door and asked me to get out. I got up and left.

Any advice for me guys?
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Bourne007(m): 8:02pm On Nov 09, 2022
No specific I'm afraid.

For instance 2 years ago, virgin money offered up to 30 months zero interest. But now it's 12 months.

Your best bet is Comparing deals online. Credit score apps if you are registered do show deals on offer as well



HollyMadison:
Thank you, do you have any specific recommendations?
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Bourne007(m): 2:11pm On Nov 09, 2022
For zero interest rates for over a year, compare the market / confused sites can get you deals you looking for


HollyMadison:
Hi elders,

Please can you recommend credit cards that have deferred repayment option(1 year and above) to buy plane tickets

@ticha I think you mentioned using a credit card to buy tickets and you didn’t have to pay back for like 2-3 years

Yes he confirmed he got notification by email and was delivered the same day.

You can as well update you home address with UKVI


arinola2:
@Bourne007 ,

Could you help me check with your friend if he got a mail pre-delivery of the BRP or not.

I was in an Airbnb for my first 4weeks of arrival and i used the address hoping it will come before i leave apartment.

It has a been difficult following up with the owner to help check 'with current occupant' if i have any letter there (from time to time).

At least, if an email precedes delivery - that will serve as a "notification" that my BRP is ready.

Thank you.
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Bourne007(m): 11:51pm On Nov 07, 2022
Checked with a friend with similar issue. It took him 6 weeks to get a replacement BRP.

He however used the same brp number to check right to work which later reflected at some point

arinola2:
Thanks a lot @Bourne007

I have tried this using the option "I have a biometric residence card or permit".

It returns "You do not have the right to work in the UK".
I could only use the my BRP number (which is the one with the 'wrong' condition).

I want to if anyone is in the same situation (or knows someone who made similar correction recently) and how long does this normally takes.

As long as you submit an intime application, section 3c of the immigration act automatically extends your visa until a decision has been made. So yes you are allowed to work.


Amarathripple0:
Hmmm that’s interesting, are we still entitled to work while we wait for the visa, or are we supposed to just wait in unemployment? Lol
