You have a good salary, wife and kids, don't leave all that only to travel to start afresh again. It will take you average 15-20yrs to get the level you are right now. You can go for holiday in any of those countries to see things for yourself.
If you were younger with no wife or job i will encourage you to go but you are settled already
erico2k2: the short of this is simple U ha e some sort of right tk live in the Uk.half of your life meaning U came here ad a child.
This immigration change govt introduced is mainly for young adults who were brought here illegally or born here by parents who got no right to live here legally, these young adults have been given the opportunity to legalize their stay because govt can't punish them for a crime committed by their parents
SirWellington: I guess this solicitor is fake as well Guess this British solicitor just felt like making a video. Like I said, do enjoy the weekend, sir!
SirWellington: Justwise, kindly watch and be enlightened. You see, some of us follow up to date information on stuffs like this, so we might have to update you on recent happenings. Regards
Have you noticed that the channel did not provide any reference to back up the claim and one person asked a question 5days ago but there was no answer. That video has 1,086 views with only one comment.
Apply for your child after 5yrs and come here to call me out
SirWellington: Like I said, I stand to be corrected, and I think it's clear enough. If you read the full internal memo, you will see there are various criterias, one of which is "if the child is born in the UK and has held limited visas for a continous period of five years, the Law isn't putting a bench mark on" only " 18 years and above. There are various averments which have been clearly spelt out in the article. Like I said, a further research will give you more insights and enlighten others as well.
It does not mean that a child born in the UK will apply after 5yrs
Early Settlement Concession For Young Persons Who Have Lived Half Of The Life In The UK
Eligibility Criteria For Grant Of ILR Under The Concession
To be eligible for ILR under the early settlement concession an applicant must (at the date of application):
Be aged 18 years or above and meet the criteria set out in paragraph 276ADE(1)(v) by having spent at least half of his/her life living continuously in the UK (discounting any period of imprisonment) or has met the criteria set out in paragraph 276ADE(1)(v) in a previous application for leave to remain; Have either been born in or entered the UK as a child; Have held limited leave on the basis of family life or private life, for example under Appendix FM, Part 7 or granted outside the Immigration Rules, for a continuous period of five years, disregarding any period of overstaying where paragraph 39E of the Rules applies; and Be eligible for further leave to remain under paragraph 276ADE(1) of the Immigration Rules (or, having previously qualified under paragraph 276ADE(1)(v), be eligible for further leave to remain under paragraph 276BE) and have made an application under those rules.
SirWellington: Na God go bless the UK govt for this five years route to settlement for children born In the UK even if the parents have limited visas. Its a relief
erico2k2: I understand what you are saying but like I will repeat if there is an option between loans and credit card you should always take a loan. There is only one winner in taking a credit card, THE CREDIT CARD COY. Repayment is fixed in loans but that's not the case ion credit cards. One of the reasons new comers in the UK run to credit cards is this misconception that the money is almost free to spend 4gotting you got to pay all back at some point. However when one reaches a level of financial maturity in the Uk a credit card is a must as it offers more protection when doing or paying for goods or services but for newbies NOP
Loan is not better, if managed your cc properly don’t pay interest or charges which is not the same with loan.
penfold: Hi Justwise, I logged on to Nairaland again today after a loong time and I'm so tickled to see that you've kept this thread alive, and still helping people with information. God bless you real good for this, May The Almighty ease your affairs the same way you've brought ease to thousands of people through this information trove.
A friend made a mistake why filling his UK Student visa application.
After filling the IHS section, He was able to generate IHS reference number , *BUT*, His IHS application was showing 0.00(UDS) as total payment value,(knowing fully well is he suppose to pay) . Its a 12 months program. Probably he has selected the wrong option, *Seems editing is no longer possible*
Pls how can this be resolve , make una help ooo.
Gurus in the house pls
He should continue with the application at a stage he will be asked to pay
bazzyblings: Good day people please I need to ask a very important question .. please how long can one be married before he or she can apply with dependant ? Is there a time frame … because some persons are saying it has to be 6months … please kindly advise
There is no time frame for this, you can marry and apply anytime you are ready
Preshila: I am well aware of that? Just wanted to hear wetin e wan talk fess, before I go know how to enter him or her. But thanks for looking out for everyone of us here. God bless you for all you do here, sir.
Glad you know this, some people offering this service use stolen credit card to pay for you and when investigation starts you will be arrested because the payment will be traced to your account and not the scammer.
semmyk: @Anthony6098 It appears from your other post, you seek MSc. An MSc is postgraduate. There are two primary types: taught and research, and others inbetween. You need to think which one you'll want to pursue. Kindly note that the research process is similar to that of PhD. For SCM, you can get through the list of the Google search. Most MSc SCM (and derivatives) might be "taught". [url]https://www.google.co.za/search?q=MSc+supply+chain+management+%2BUK[/url]
@Justwise | wondering if it's possible to have a thread discuss PG (postgraduate) exploration in the UK. Then the current thread remains for Visa (student permits). The challenge though might be the entwining way people inquired or put their posts
That will be a good idea only that it will not work, it will be turned to general student visa thread instantly. people here are not capable of sticking to the purpose of a thread.
I'm applying my Visa alone for now and my dependents (hubby and 3 kids) are applying by month End
I'm filling my Visa form and I don't really know if I'm to put "Yes or No" on where I pointed the arrow to on the attached picture. Stating if they are travelling with me to the UK .
@justwise and other gurus in the house Kindly help.
Thanks in Anticipation.
No you are not traveling with them but make a note in your application form that they will be joining you in a month time
mzharyorlah: Hello house, please I really need your assistance on how to go about this getting student visa and coming along with dependents(husband and 2kids). Please I do not have an idea what it entails: cheaper schools to apply for, getting a job as well as my spouse, visa cost for the whole family… please I will be so grateful if some that has gone through same process can have a private chat with me. I’m so confused seriously �
