Hi guys,

So I’ve been In the UK since last year February with my dependant on a student visa.

The care company I work for is offering me sponsorship soon but my dependant won’t be able to switch with me.

Is there any other visa she can apply for to elongate her stay in the UK ?

If you don’t have kids and the dependent is just you spouse, you could look for charity visa or apply let you dependent apply as a student on their own visa and look for courses in demand that your spouse can go for, it’s expensive route but it’s another way if you want both of you to be here, or else go with the initial idea of applying for PSW


?

I've been in the UK as student for 12 months, course is ending May 2024 and visa expiring Sept 30 2024.

My wife is applying to join me. I used the IHS calculator and got £470
Yes, your wife would need to show her POF for 9 months, since you are in U.K. for over 12 months there’s no need to add yours , just hers is ok.
Question is do we need to provide evidence for maintenence, and if yes how much?

Good Afternoon All,

I need your advice. Ok so I got a job to resume today on a salary of over 50k. I even signed a contract. Everything went well until I was asked to provide NIN. I came in to UK just last month and I applied for NIN on the 17th of this month. I shared my right to work code and BRP, however, since then I have heard nothing.

When I called HR, they referred me to my recruiter. I tried calling the recruiter but until now he has not called back. I used another number to call to see if perhaps my number was blocked as call kept being busy. Recruiter called back on that line but I did not pick. He is still yet to call my own number he has.

I feel so sad at the moment as it was a reputable Company.

Any word of encouragement or advice will do. Please note that I am a Dependent (Student Visa).

that's why you don't apply to just one school, don't put your eggs in one basket. There's a timeframe which they could issue it, schools won't issue CAS earlier than when they should or after when they should. Reapply (the school information centre will have more information about that) or try somewhere else

My kids passport update;
Did 2 of my kids passport in JULY and got the passport 2nd of February.
Reason; NIN could not be activated due to a name that appeared on the passport application but was not on the NIN registration. But it was rectified and all was fine.

Did 1 in May for another kid but did the biggest mistake by adding a middle name during NIN registration and a different middle name on the application. I had to pay new payment to correct the NIN and it is still not activated. Until the NIN is activated passport will not printed.

So my advice, take your child's birth certificate to register your NIN. Make sure you have the certificate at hand when filling the application. That way everything will be fine. Don't ommit any name no matter how long the names are. The NIN and passport office can decide to shorten the name themselves if need be.
For adult, make sure you fill application and NIN with exactly the same name in the exact order .Very important.

Xanderlex:

Yes. After 7 weeks from capture date

Sometimes doing good comes back to haunt you.

Helped a stranded family with Accomodation at a friend's.

The result is bringing enmity between the husband and wife that hosted them and keeping malice with them equally.

Oh, I am now an enemy for trying to mediate.


Ungrateful Nigerians!!!

You have to present the underlying [Nigerian?] driving licence.
An international driving licence is not a standalone, it's based on a national licence.
And you should be within the one year period following your arrival in the UK as a resident during which you can use your national licence to drive in the UK.

Please bosses in the house, I have a little problem. I just got to the UK as a dependent last month and my wife (main applicant) visa expires in May.

Ever since, I have been looking for jobs even if it’s cleaner or factory work but due to the fact that I have no BRP and no experience working in the UK, most of the these companies are not giving me job. The reason for not having BRP as stated by UKVI is because I entered UK in less than 6 months to the visa expiration date and the reason
why it was so is because I was in my finals here in Nigeria, I had to finish school before joining my partner.

Our only option here now is to apply for PSW and I need to work to be able to meet up. We stay in Bournemouth and she’s working 20hrs/week but rent and other bills are there and we need to balance up the school fees too. Please if there’s anyone with cash in hand jobs I can do? I’d appreciate. I already have every necessary docs to work including updated DBS but only BRP. The care job that made me do the DBS are now saying till next month before I can start working with them.
