TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Grace321: 12:28pm On May 25
This issue is I am more than 26, so I can’t apply as a new entrant.

headofschool:
Tell them apply for you as new entrant if you don't mind the pay cut. You can always renegotiate with HR again once you are back on the job.

If they're hesitant on reframing you as new entrant, tell them since the work experience in their trust is still going to be new anyway, you can be considered new entrant on that basis

Please help me out. I got this email from a job I applied for. I got my first COS before April 2024 which I believe enables me to transition. Going through gov.uk website, I qualify for the lower going rate for the job. The job salary is more than the lower going rate but in their email they said it’s not high enough (which I don’t understand) and can only sponsor via new entrant, in which I do not meet the requirements.

Please see below email
You have been verbally offered the above role and, as you are currently on a Sponsored Visa with your employer, you will need new Sponsorship with the Trust.
 
The role you have been offered comes under Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) Code 3111 Laboratory technicians.
 
This is a Medium Skilled role and, as the Trust do not require 3 years’ experience, we are only able to Sponsor this role as it is on the Temporary Shortage List.  The salary required to Sponsor means that we can also only Sponsor someone who is eligible to apply as a New Entrant, as otherwise the Band 3 Salary is not high enough to Sponsor”.

 
Please how can I go about this?

Thank you

Does your current SOC code, allow you work in a laboratory (voluntary or paid), regardless......

From my atheist mind, I would say no...... 🤔

Please has anyone done a reassessment for statement of comparability with UK NARIC? How did it go?

UK NARIC said the degree has elements of both honours & ordinary degree. They concluded it to be an ordinary degree.

Skilled Worker visa holders can study (with no limit on the number of study hours if it doesn't interfere with the job they have been sponsored to do).

Thanks for your response.

The GP referred her to another clinic and it was free.

TheGuyFromHR:
Ear syringing is medical treatment, but to the best of my knowledge that is no longer provided free by the NHS - did you get it through your GP or were you referred to a clinic where you had to pay?

The "no" is fine, as that question is simply a carryover from the tourist visa application aimed at smoking out those who get NHS treatment without having paid/being eligible for it, and as a student on a Tier 4 visa you have paid the IHS and are entitled to NHS treatment like any other UK resident, so even if you had attended a hospital or GP surgery for any other reason and answered yes, it's absolutely fine and makes no difference.
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Grace321: 3:07pm On Jun 27, 2022
For the graduate visa application, someone selected “No” for the question ‘Did you have any medical treatment in the UK’ but this person has done ear syringing before. Is ear syringing considered as a medical treatment?

Thanks

Send a mail to applyinternational and copy Katy Davenport(she acts as an added advantage to international students).

I have replied your mail.

Hello Grace 321,I have been trying to mail you. Apparently, it appears I don't really know how to,again using my phone.

You mentioned that you have a mail of University of Chester personnel that someone can mail to and get a quick response in the student forum.. Please can you state it please?

I missed my admission because of their reluctance nature even after paying school fees. I have deferred for the next intake. However,I need the right contacts for mailing.


Thank you very much.
