IamE: Q1. I am an advocate of moving together once and for all and starting the journey together, but moving separately doesn't mean visa denial as long as all documentation is right. Although approval length may vary. Q2 . Depends on the warehouse and hours worked, not less than UK minimum wage £8.92 and could be anywhere up to £15 if you do more hours Q3. If no kids 1 bed flat is fine for you both, enjoy the closeness , if more than 1 kids 2bedroom ground floor flat or house Q4. Be supportive, kind, prayerful and all others will fall in place 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Gracegal: You don't really need anything asides the Birth Certiifcate and the year she is placed is determined by when she was born. I.e before or after September of any yr. E.g your child born after Sept 2016 will probably be in Reception while those before Sept 2016 will be in Yr 1. Regarding admission, in year applications can be tricky but not impossible, basically your house, location and local authority will determine the school and if your choice(s) are over-subscribed then they will be placed in the nearest school available, which may or may not be a good school. The good thing is some schools will confirm availability for your child before you waste that slot when applying. So get a house, research schools you want in the area, speak to the council, shortlist schools and call them up before submitting your 3 or 5 choices to the Local Authority. 1 Like 1 Share |

feyijo: Oh really sorry you had that experience. What I realise is avoid doing Day 8 on a Sunday as its most likely going to affect your result. The government website stated On or after day 8, so push to a working day when the samples are going to be collected and check the collection times on the box to ensure its not past for the day. Also I believe I have see a website that stated one may stop quarantine after Day 10 once you have done the Day 8 test .

Meanwhile my baby is now in school oo, I think we are more excited than the child sef. After relocating as a baby, I struggled with childcare, combining fulltime work with nursery runs etc we are now free from Nursery charges . Although we are porting to Morning and afternoon club cost but its a relief from full time childcare cost. I learnt a lot on this thread on things to search for when choosing schools, curriculum, school area and neighbourhood etc, so thank you to everyone sharing your ideas. Now to start researching gradually for grammar schools since most people said better to start early preparation. The new thing I discovered during my research aside OFSTED rating is a new comparative tool that shows the schools performance in English,Maths and Reading and comparing to Local and England averages. Basically, some schools can be outstanding but have just average performance in those KS1 and KS2 area. So for anyone prepping for next year or midyear application check the below link for more information and also feel free to disturb the Local Authority for information as well. I called severally oo to know my chances in my school preference. https://www.compare-school-performance.service.gov.uk/find-a-school-in-england 23 Likes 5 Shares |

justwise: Thought you can switch once you have completed your academics and gotten a job offer from a sponsored employer. E.g, Student A completed studies etc in September and can now work full time till visa expires in January, however he landed an HCA job willing to sponsor and is way cheaper for a family of 4 than PSW, won't this be possible? |

Boofrenzy: This isn't advisable and doesn't follow UKVI requirements. You must have had the funds in your account for 28days before making the visa application. Hence the wait, but like you stated if one started application early then the rush can be avoided. https://www.gov.uk/student-visa/money. See link for verification 6 Likes |

dustydee:[/b] Thats still some form of informal practical lessons, although I believe it's a risk and not advisable to do that without driving lessons especially when the rules and side if the roads for driving are different. We have seen how a US diplomat wife from America killed Harry Dunn and escaped punishment because of "diplomatic" status. 5 Likes |

Mimzyy: From what have read the normal naija licence qualifies has international and if that's presented you get your insurance etc. Thinking about it haven't heard anyone being asked to present either for insurance or sth else. So it could just be one of those grey areas 4 Likes |

mrcodebreaker: From my credit report summary, i believe paying all your utility bills on time really helps because nothing is hidden in this country oo. And if any default then CCJ, hence why its advisable you check it often for any major changes. Credit building is a long term building exercise with lots of patience and diligence and within 1 to 2yrs one should be on the right track. 14 Likes 2 Shares |
