Most PhDs are fully funded- Tuition, health insurance , living expenses fully covered. You should consider a PhD .

rayralph:
Agencies are not under NHS. They are partners.

Most agencies employ on zero-hour contracts

Sponsorship is only permanent-full time contract positions.

ghettonews:
Are you in USA already.
Marriage and change of status are easiest way to convert and stay back

Interests on savings is growing daily in Nigeria now, you might look at Money Market Funds - the type that preserves your value oo , get some interest, build up capital and do real investments that would amount to something in the future and not one that boys would use set their own business on top your head. My thoughts though.

flourishing247:
You don't need to go with them. You can submit for everyone.

Hello good people of Nairaland,

Please I have a couple of questions:

1. are still possibilities of converting a B1/B2 visa to F1?
2. does anybody have information about the re-opening of the Abuja embassy to interview?

Looking forward to your responses


Please someone should answer for us

dduchess90:
Hello

Applying will be the same for partner dependant,here is the link
https://www.gov.uk/student-visa/family-members

Please have a look at the caseworker guidance documents under relationship section for more types of evidence you will need, again ensure they span across minimum 2years and are verifiable

Don't use individuals to provide letters for you in proxy


Cheers

dduchess90:
Hello

If your relationship is more than 2years she may qualify as your dependant partner

Please see screenshot of details you can provide,the list is endless

Cheers

I can provide about 2 items in the second category and one item in the first category.

But how do i start to apply for her. Just give me headsup i will connect the rest of the dot myself.


Also, please, can a childless couple live in a room apartment here in uk. Or it is compulsory a childless couple collect 2room apartment?

1. Yes it’s possible to convert a b1/b2 visitor visa to a student visa you’d need to have gotten admission into the university before doing this

2. It’s possible to get appointment dates if it’s urgent but before you’d be able to get an earlier date, first you have to apply, pay fees and wait for a date (it took me about 3 weeks to get a date), in my case I got November 2024 then I immediately applied for an emergency date and got a available dates starting from the next week, I chose whichever one that was more convenient for me, it took 2 days for them to reply my request for an emergency date. I sent a letter with the death certificate and funeral memo of the funeral I’m attending when I was requesting for my date.

LagosismyHome:
There is nobody in this world that can tell you the likelihood of this outcome ....America visa is always down to the Vo and the voices in his or her head.

You can only find out the outcome by applying to see which way it will go

Shannon70:
So much wrong here.

Your relative writing to the Embassy means nothing. At best it will be ignored, it will never be matched up to your DS160 or be relevant to the interview.

You cannot pay for an expedited appointment. The only thing you pay is the $160 MRV fee.

semmyk:
What is apparent is that the denial can't be as bad as that of someone 'visiting' from back home (9ja).
If I recalled well, someone posted here, sometimes back, of how they went about visiting the US from here, the UK.
While you wait for response, let me quickly chip this in.
- How much of across the isle to Ireland have you done: say Dublin for long weekend
- How much of across the canal to Paris have you done or 'soak' up in Spain
- Or even week long (or two weeks tour of Europe)
All of these might add up. However, they are not absolute.

[Update: try doing some search. Here's what I found. Too many pages to check!]

hustla:
Sponsorship isn't transitive like VPCs in AWS

Simple terms, you have to keep working for Coy A. When you resign, the sponsorship ends

You Can switch to B if they have sponsorship too

hustla:
I seriously doubt that's how it works

Lexusgs430:
Are you on the voters list........

rayralph:
Aqua, capital one , Amex

rayralph:
Since your remittances/payment is in naira and not tied to your NI/UK account. Nothing concerns HMRC.

Please keep it that way. Use 3rd party exchangers to convert your money to pounds if needed.

Lexusgs430:
When they say no recourse to public funds ......... Don't take it or you go choke ..........

wallg123:
I thought students are entitled to 20hrs work per week durning school term? Or has it changed?. When you’ve got 20hrs to work and study, why would you want another side hustle ?. What time would you study with?. U sure say na school you come so?.
U might as well apply for another category of visa so you can work 24hrs/ 365days without worries

mydeporch:
Please, Is it okay for student to book One way ticket ?
I want to believe it's not compulsory to buy return ticket as a student. Help clarify this.

Teezee22:
don't know if your cas has the samething but the latest date u are allowed to enter should be communicated to you. For instance, my school expects me to resume by Sept 19th, (I know classes officially starts in sometime around 28 of September) but school states I'm allowed to enter till 10th of October before its considered too late

Queenk007:
go before enrollment
