I have a few questions if you have answers kindly respond.

1. Where do you suggest someone studying in University of Chester gets an accommodation.

2. Do you have an idea if I can get an accommodation at a cheaper rate </= £300 pcm?

3. Please what do I need to do before proceeding to apply for a job? (Like things to get done first - police certificate? NIN? etc? How do I go about it?)

4. Do you know anyone that is studying or have studied in Chester? (last year September intake or before then)

5. Is it compulsory I leave London immediately after isolation to school to get my BRP? Can I wait a few days?

6. How do I buy a train/bus ticket from London to Chester. What do you suggest?

7. How can one apply for a job? What sites can I view? (I know about indeed.co.uk)

8. How and where can I register my SIM card for NIMC? I was unable to get my NIN in Nigeria.

9. What network provider and bank account is best to use? (I have read about Monzo)

Thank you!

When is the right time for a student to apply?

Thank you.

LagosismyHome:
For worker visa such as Tier 2 yes since working and that visa is mandatory.... for Tier 4 when not all student work then no NIN doesn't come with BRP. You have to apply for it
TravelRe: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Grace321: 7:45pm On Jan 30, 2021
Does NIN come with BRP?

How much Naira do you need?

Dfazz:
I need Naira oooo, if anyone got pls slide into my DM
TravelRe: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Grace321: 5:01pm On Jan 29, 2021
Now I get it. Thank you much

chrisj2:
Let us say you use the free NHS test service to do a covid test as a 'fit for work' or study... If your employer is clued up and the type that is officious, he might reject it or ask you how you got the test... You will probably lie and say you had symptoms etc.

Having symptoms is something one might have to declare... huh

It just depends on why you want a covid test and whether you really need one!
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 5 by Grace321: 5:00pm On Jan 29, 2021
Kindly Google 54gene then go to contact. Call them and ask all the questions you have. Their customer service is really good. My experience

dimej01:
Hello, kindly share 54gene address or contact number and cost of covid test.Thanks.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 5 by Grace321: 10:23pm On Jan 28, 2021
Do your test on Friday, get the result on Saturday, travel on Sunday. This is 54gene pattern

kcmontez:
Hi guys,

Please I ve booked my ticket for 28th february to arrive on the 1st of March. If I take sample for covid test on thursday., Will it still be valid by 5 am March 1? Wanted to test on Friday but Synlab is not too confident the result will be out by Saturday.

Are they really by-the-book on this 72hrs timeline for covid tests?

Please who has travelled recently?
TravelRe: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Grace321: 10:08pm On Jan 28, 2021
I don’t get

chrisj2:
It depends on what you need the Covid test for? You can get free test on the NHS if you have symptoms, otherwise it might have to be at private expense.

However, if it is for travel (at this time - only essential travel reasons), then it should be private. Some get away with NHS covid test but it is a risk.

Lastly, if you obtain a test without symptoms, how can you then go and explain it to whoever wanted you to do the test? smiley

Please can an international student do Covid test for free after arriving in the UK?

Yes, you can quarantine anywhere, London or Chester
TravelRe: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Grace321: 12:59am On Jan 24, 2021
Can I quarantine in London for 10 days and go to Chester after? My school is at Chester.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 5 by Grace321: 10:16pm On Jan 23, 2021
During my application, I sent a mail to the admission team and copied Holly to hasten my process. I, however, got an offer in 48hours after waiting for over a month. Now, Holly doesn’t work with the university anymore but Katy.

You can send a mail to the university admissions team and copy Katy. She has replaced Holly’s position. She should also be of good help.

Let me know if you need any other information.

I hope this helps.

Tell me what you want to know. Do note that, if you want your application processed faster, there’s a particular email you copy when you send a mail to the school. Worked for me.

Manchester. If you have any other enquiries it would be best to contact the Nigerian association there or the international office; they will be more than happy to help.

Carry more food thank clothes. Don’t waste your money on shoes. Don’t carry red oil. Have a great flight.

How do I go about that please help me.
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 4 by Grace321: 8:13pm On Dec 22, 2020
The link sent to your email for your visa application is what to use.

You can check your email for the payment confirmation of your visa fee. You’ll see a link to sign into your application.

Miide2:
can you put the link ?
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 4 by Grace321: 7:13pm On Dec 22, 2020
I guess tracking through the link to your visa application is more detailed unlike the app.

Islamiat01:
The app I downloaded isn’t asking for all these oo, just the destination country, my passport number and Surname. Abi there’s another app for the stuff ni? Please help a sister here
TravelRe: Uk Student Visa/tier 4 Pbs - Your Questions Answered Part 4 by Grace321: 2:20pm On Dec 22, 2020
Have you called them? Have you tracked it? Have you been to their office?

Sign in to your application and click on provide documents and biometrics then track it. You’ll see it there.
