Hello,

My broadband contract (with Virgin media) is ending in few days.
Can someone recommend a broadband with good deals. I don't understand what Virgin media is saying regarding renewal of contract because how can I move from £22 to £57.

Okay boss, maybe I am biased though because I have people that did well as students in London and I got jobs fast upon landing in Manchester.

fullclub:
London weh de press people neck with house rent.
You see a room going for 800 and a bedroom flat goingfor 1600
I rather go places I see rent 300 or 250 shared accommodation

The house u described you pay 650 in London it is 2000 plus

ebuka1997:
It’s pure data, Greater Manchester is the second biggest economy in the UK. So statistically there would be more jobs, it’s that simple.

Thar someone you knew got or didn’t get jobs doesn’t invalidate that as that could be skewed by personal experiences.

ebuka1997:
After London, I’ll say there’s no better place than Manchester. It may be tough for a month or two but you’ll get something maybe not up to 20 hours though because the demand is now less than the supply as many international students have flooded.

Jobs you should be targeting as a start are steward, cleaner, retail and later on care. Teaching assistant is a soft job that can give 20 hours if you have teaching experience. One thing also, get police report when coming from Nigeria, some jobs might need it.

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


?

Good evening everyone

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?

EPEAKS:
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).

damble:
Hello, I am a dependent on my husband student's Visa. What kind of jobs can I get around liverpool? Or what short course (program) can I do to get a job fast. Thanks all for your help

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

Finally, offer letter from Barclay bank dropped. Thanking everyone who has answered my questions in this group. We were able to get offer even with a fair credit score.

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!!!
