There is a reason why most governments in developed countries regulate the housing market - it's because it has a social function and cannot just be left to capitalism unchecked. In other words, there are generally curbs on unrestrained landlordism. 4 Likes |

Samadhii: No idea. You can only find out when you access the site and to do that you must have filled a visa application first. |

Samadhii: You are not called for visa application. You select a date for your biometrics and passport submission on the website of the visa application centre. |

lusco: While the 6 month post-travel validity rule doesn't apply to student visas, if you're being given a 90-day vignette instead of the former 30 days, it might affect you. Best advice is to eliminate all uncertainty and renew your passport before you apply. In any event the Nigerian High Commission in the UK is a very inefficient place and you might have serious difficulty renewing your passport in the UK, especially if you have to travel to London to do it. |

elmay33: You dont need to take IELTS. As long as you declare the Irish refusal and any others in the proper place on the visa form and the refusals were not for immigration offences, you will have no problems getting a UK student visa. 1 Like |

twojul: Lol. My brother, in today's world, the day you applied for that first visa and gave your first set of fingerprints, your information is now stored in the databases of the 9 Eyes countries, and is already accessible to those countries' authorities anyway. Requesting a DBS check doesn't bring you any particular scrutiny, it's routine. |

Dprinz45: I presume your employer knows that you are outside the UK and will need a visa to take up this internship? That being the case, you will be applying for a skilled worker visa. As someone else said, your company should give you some information about the process. They will also provide you with a CoS listing their details and a reference number for you, etc. You will have to take an English test, or get a degree evaluation and get a tuberculosis screening, so go to the student visa thread and see what the process for booking for that at IOM in Lagos or Abuja is like, from what I've been reading, it's currently booked up because this is the rush period for student visas. The visa used to be called Tier 2, and things were changed in December 2020, I'm not sure by how much - I have someone who just travelled but she went under the new Health and Care visa, which would have been Tier 2 up to last year, so check here for easily understandable and absorbable info: https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa 1 Like |

rabola1: In the time before they phased out transit visas, they were easy to get, sometimes the airlines would take care of that. Now that everyone has to give biometrics for Schengen visas, you will need to turn up in Lagos or Abuja and do the whole visa application centre process. |

Tobex4realTobex234: No, it's not, you need the KRA pin and you must have established some form of residence either through employment or something like the Alien Card process. You can't enter on a 90-day tourist visa and open a bank account. 1 Like |

emmanuelewumi: 4 accounts in different banks. 2 are purely savings accounts, 1 entirely untouched, fees come out from the other. 2 are for transactions, those are the cards in the wallet swiped in the supermarket or used for online bill payment, those accounts only contain a float topped up as it falls below specific limits. No cards annexed to the two savings accounts, shared between two banks because I've been a victim of bank failures in Nigeria twice. |

Gentlesoul3268: The bolded looks unrealistic, how do you justify shipping over a family of 5 and paying for airfare and for 20 Covid tests in total, only to spend 5 days? Secondly, your hotel bill at N400k for 15 days is also unrealistic, unless you mean you want to rent an apartment. That's still a budget of 40 pounds a day you've worked out there, and I dont think any Airbnb apartment big enough for 5 let alone a hotel room will rent at 40 pounds a day. |

fabulous2019: Tuition fees range from roughly £11k for a 1 year MSc for the cheaper universities to £15-18k for the mid-range and £20k pounds and above for those in the upper range. Like everywhere, you tend to get cheaper living costs in smaller cities, which in turn generally tend to have fewer opportunities than bigger cities. You guys should do your research and decide on what course to apply for based on her work experience if any, intended career path, etc. It's May so it might be late for many schools for admission for September, so you have to check individually to see which ones are still accepting applications. Once you fulfil the requirements (mainly finance, budget around £28,000 - 30,000 for everything, tuition, maintenance, visa and related fees for you both), student dependant visas are points-based, so the chances of getting a visa are very good. |

emmanuelewumi: This I have to agree with. It's a rule that works - you give and you get. Even the irreligious who know what's up apply it. And it cuts across all "religions". Just define "God's Kingdom" properly. Avoid the pastorpreneurs and their lousy tithing marketing and do your giving to people who really need it. Financially adopt an orphan or something like that, do your giving very quietly and very anonymously and it will indeed work for you. 13 Likes |

sweetgold5: If your visa has expired you will need to reapply for a new one, unused tourist visas are not re-issued. You can't apply for a long-stay visa for tourism purposes. The UK has left the EU, so your child's British passport will allow them entry to France visa free for up to 90 days only . 1 Like 1 Share |

Futureukstudent: This is correct. Under the terms of the post-study graduate visa, any dependant you wish to apply for must have already received a student dependant visa beforehand, which means that you cannot apply for a student dependant and hence a post-study dependant after one has graduated. 1 Like |
