Hi Everyone, some serious advice needed here.

A friend of mine on the 5 year path to ILR(skilled worker visa) is not getting her contract renewed.
1. How long can she remain legal in the country after her current visa expires while she searches for a job?

2. How long can she be on this break from a Tier 2 visa before the 5 year clock to ILR resets.

I ve had a read through the guidance (very arcane) and wondered whether my reading of it was correct.

Thanks Everyone for having a read of my question


From my reading, the answer to both questions is 2 weeks.

This story doesn't add up.
If her name is not on the document then I don't see how this is possible.

The man should head straight to court.

The only downside is that his wife I'll end up in jail

Billionaire Bill Gates' recent hot dog purchase from a street vendor has made headlines, not just for his humility, but also for highlighting societal differences.

In the West, individuals from all walks of life can move freely and engage with others without fear.

In stark contrast, Nigeria grapples with insecurity and social divisions. Prominent figures, including politicians, require heavy security, restricting their interaction with ordinary citizens.

Nigeria's insecurity, fueled by kidnapping, banditry, and terrorism, has created a culture of fear. Politicians, often seen as disconnected from the people, prioritize personal safety over public engagement.

Emulating Gates' humility seems unlikely for many Nigerian politicians, who: Prioritize personal interests over public needs.

Once there's security of lives and property in Nigeria. Everything will go smoothly.
Only then can Nigeria move closer to a society where everyone, regardless of status, can walk freely and enjoy simple pleasures like a hot dog from a street vendor here in Nigeria.

Twinskenny & I was on a project in owerri despite the fact that he vouch for you in the background, you might not know this… you nearly disappointed the client! With failed promises !

You need to change and change for good ! Remembered the engr that brought your matter here the last time? We all know the truth!

No matter how small a job is always try to available on site yourself or send a competent hand…

gbadexy:
Always saying it as it is sir. I can tell you for free that not a few of the contractors has contacted me when I comment on such issues to tell their own side of the story to dissuade further or influence my understanding and comment on the issue. Some veiled warning.
I can only imagine what some others may experience.
It just annoys me some take the easy opportunities here for granted. The information the op posted is out, the accused can clear himself and the members would form their opinion from the outcome.
I hope adedward would sort it out with the client. We aren't in the same line of business and I don't wish you or anyone bad. I'm not even judging but series of complains create doubt and affects business for all and if that affects me, I would take it personal.

Sigh... What exactly are you ranting off about now?!!

Is there anywhere in the developed world where major companies and corporations are not heavily taxed?!!

Dangote is a business man, whatever he pays as taxes will be reflected on the fuel price. Simple!

CyrusVI:
If Dangote's thought process was actually like this, he'd not have been the richest man in Africa

Chinonso, Its normal for State Govt to have lil issues with private investors, but based on who u be, you turn am to tribal attack

kponkedenge:
So how do you explain my gearbox of 22 pin, same with the Venza?

tolue42:
My Siena engine is 2GR FE
Google is your friend, on this pictures with this message you'll see Toyota corrolla ,Lexus , Siena ,Venza cars etc using this same engine ..

tolue42:
Stop saying what you don't know, Lexus, Siena uses the same engine with venza, I don't know about corolla though

BlindAngel:
I would have bought the catalyst long ago, but some mechanic I have net told me that it doesn't matter on fuel consumption, while some said that it does matters.

Another reason I'm scared is that I don't know how it looks like, I really wish to get the original, but the mechanic and seller must surely combine to cheat me, that's my other fear. If not, I'll ready to get and fix it today.



Sir, is this scanner okay?
So I can place order right away.

BlindAngel:
My odo meter (distance meter) isn't working self
the speed meter isn't working, I mean the kilometer and miles reader.
My fuel guage isn't working too

I bought 33k fuel this morning but it's still on reserve.


The scanner man could not correct the error, he said that we have to change something, I have forgotten the name, he said it's 80-100k to change it.

BlindAngel:
I'm sure it's been removed, because whenever I match the teto the sound coming out of the exhaust seems like power bike, but a lot of mechanics has assured me that catalyst doesn't affect fuel consumption, I'd have changed it already.

KristenT:
My Camry Muscle 2011 has a Venza engine too, 4 plugs. I don’t even understand all this calculations about 2.0l and 1.85l.

All I know is once if I place a full tank, it takes me to work for 10 days. I move to and fro Surulere and VI. Sometimes traffic could be terrible. And only last for 7 days. All thanks to T-pain that is the only time I drive.

vivalavida:
There is. My neighbors own is 4 plugs

BlindAngel:
Good morning Nairalands

After my never ending fuel gulping battle with my Toyota Camry, I later ended up buying a 2012 Toyota Corolla.

I went with my mechanic to a car stand to get it, when we got there we saw different kinds/types of corolla. My mechanic told me some are 1.8l engine while others are 2.0l and a lot of the corolla uses venza engine.

I wanted to buy any of the corolla of 1.8L engine but my mechanic told me that they're old model, that I should get a recent corolla with Venza engine, but I refused when I heard the word "venza engine"

I told my mechanic that over my dead body will I jump from frying pan to fire, from Camry to Venza. I said so because since the corolla is using Venza engine, it'd surely gulp up fuel like Venza, which would be a lot worst than a camry.

But my mechanic assured me that what I said is very false, that it won't. That a corolla is a corolla and corollas doesn't eat fuel.

His words really calmed me down and I bought the 2012 corolla.

So I bought 8k fuel to test the fuel usage and see how long it'd last, I know I should have bought more, but I needed to get a faster result.

Well, it turns out that my mechanic tricked me and I'm in so much pains right now, my 8k fuel only went for 31km before the fuel got exhausted, I later realized that I was very much right and shouldn't have listened to my mechanic that a corolla is a corolla, venza engine or small 1.8L engine.

From my observation, it seems the 2012 corolla is gulping up fuel like a venza. Yesterday, I took it to a mechanic and asked them to fix anything that'd make the car to gulp up fuel, they changed the plugs, cleaned the filter, I will be testing it today with another 8k fuel, I pray and I hope that it won't be as bad as it was yesterday, because I'm so depressed right now, after what my camry did to me which made me went for a corolla, now I'm having same issue with my corolla. I'm really so down right now.

The quality of life a N5000,000/month can give you in Nigeria is incomparable to what a measly £30,000/year nursing starting salary can give in the UK. A family in which one earner earns that much in Nigeria can build and/or rent a mansion. A nurse starting salary would struggle to rent a decent flat, let alone qualify for a mortgage. If we even factor in future salary increment in the UK to justify our reasoning, we should also then consider that she would also get an increment in the 5M salary in Nigeria at some point. IF the future of the children is the reason for the move, a few months of savings can allow her sponsor the kids to study in the UK until they can function independently.

If I were in her shoes, I will take the Nigeria job offer. Work and save aggressively for a few years. Visit the UK and spend time understanding the way the system works here for nurses. Do some research into America as well. If I earned that much in Nigeria before I came to the UK in 2009, I wouldn't have made the decision to come.

Which oil company is paying a nurse 5 million in Nigeria?
Is it a contract job? Una dey make person laugh for here
It’s like most people don’t understand what is going on in oil companies in Nigeria.
What’s the role of a nurse in an oil company
They don’t even pay subsea engineers, installation engineers up to 5 million lol

Madam nurse will you be going offshore? Or your company has a hospital? It’s very unlikely as most oil companies put their staff on HMO

Maybe she won’t be working as a nurse sha
Let’s not fight over funny stories 😂

Taal17:
And neither do you.
But what is clear is that the only person that has a definitive job when they land is her. She'll be on that entry level for at least two years. Her husband will need to bridge that gap for childcare cos those kids are young since .
To do this UK move he needs to be prepared to do what he probably has not been primarily responsible for in Nigeria.

Taal17:
She a nurse. There have always been opportunities for nursing abroad. Consistently high demand .
Even if she moves to as a student or studies public health. Permanent residence for healthcare professionals is typically much easier for them.

Their kids are 5&7 years that's already school drop off and pick up ..they can't take bus. One parent must be home for that.

She knows her husband if she thinks he can do the heavy lifting since she the only one with a confirmed job. The shocks may not be pretty.

elengine:
Please and please. Stay away from giving advice to the woman if you do not belong to the following group:

1. You are a nurse in uk and have stayed up to 2 years

2. You have been in the UK for more than 5 years

3. You just moved to UK or your spouse is in Uzk but you were/are earning close to 40m per annum in naija.

Please do not misinform her because it is a life decision. If you have not seen money before, you might think 5 million naira is something but you ve forgotten that there are some hidden cost that come with earning 5m monthly.
