Hello@justwise

For the US nonimmigrant B1/B2 visa application, refusals under section 214(b).
For the Schengen France short stay visa refusals, 'There are reasonable doubts as to your intention to leave the territory of the Member states before the visa expires.'

Ok so declare all the visa refusals, you got no choice, visa refusal is not the prob, the prob comes when people are not honest about it

Marcgrace:
Hello@Everyone,

Will having been refused visas three times by the US and four times by France affect my chances of obtaining a UK visitor visa to visit my daughter, who is currently studying in the UK?

Why did they refused you visa to those two countries?

shox:
Nigerians are choking Brazilian embassy while Americans are fleeing to Nigeria cos of hardship in America.

Na kemetian wan make me believe this one o😂😂😂😂

Americans are fleeing to Nigeria? Ahahaha joke of the century

bigtt76:
Awwwww good to hear that and it's been quite a while from you, I hope you are fully settled in now and can now cook well too 🤣... Just kidding.

RodgersAkpafu:
I still have faith that farage somehow wont win

I think your faith will carry most of us...personally i think that he is most likely heading to No10

RodgersAkpafu:
I have to agree to this

This quote by George Carlin...don't underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups is making a lot more sense now in this current political climate. They elected Trump x2 and the same set of people will likely elect Farage soon

Goke7:
😂 you too like trouble but make come uk we go find am 10 hours shift per day if she fit run am

Trump and Farage supporters have one thing in common...unashamedly brainless

Goodenoch:
Found this hilarious. You will, too: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DMa-AbsOPqg

This video explains why she could not get a job

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado wins Nobel Peace Prize

Can someone check on Trump?

Goke7:

lol..there is nothing here to suggest otherwise..

FEGEITOK:
I didn't ask for help.

I never intended to.

I'm doing good.

There is this feeling, I haven't seen or heard from this person in a long while.

That was the motivation for reaching out nothing more nothing less.

I'm not insinuating that

FEGEITOK:
I finally reached out to a friend I hadn't heard from in nearly six months, but her line wouldn't connect. She contacted me shortly after via WhatsApp.

After exchanging pleasantries, she asked how life was treating me and what I had been up to. The very next thing she did was ask:

"Please can you assist me with money?"

I responded, "What kind of money?"

She named a figure.

I replied, "Not immediately," and explained the various commitments and emergencies I'd had to deal with over the last 60 days.

So she asked, "Okay, how much can you spare?"

I told her, "You have to give me time, please."

My real question is this: Does it really make sense to sell everything and move to the UK with barely enough funds, only to end up depending on friends and family back in Nigeria to survive? Or should one only move when they have enough of a financial runway—a buffer for emergencies—to last for six months to a year?

Nigerians who have moved to the UK, which side of the divide do you identify with the lady that recently moved to the UK or me back in Nigeria?

You reached out to her first? Well.. i don't think she needs your financial help, she is trying to attack before you do and it worked

twizzie:
Anyone able to help please? Can I put a later date and upload passport application and appointment page as parts of the supporting docs with a note explaining this. @Zahra, @justwise

During the application process use future date in place of passport expiration date so as to proceed with the application HOWEVER, you need to explain this in additional info section AND attach a copy of the expired passport and your NIN[/quote]

Go and pick up your passport but its not for visa decision, your passport is not needed anymore for visa stamp as they are now using e-visa

Your passport is just for proof of ID, when decision is made on your application you will receive an e-visa

I never knew about this. Must the research program be on scholarship or it include those on self-funding?

Both

Masters in the UK is one year, why is yours two years if I may ask?


If you can be able to pay the whole tuition fee before relocating, then you will be fine but if not, it won't be easy for you, reconsider the move until you have saved up enough money to pay 100% of the tuition fee from Nigeria.

Some masters programs are longer than one year especially January staters.

franchasng:
UK's immigration policy on bringing dependents as a student changed since 2022/2023, students can no longer bring their dependent until they are done with school and have secured a job to enable them file for their dependent.


That policy nailed the study route on the cross for low-cash prospective foreign students

Students on research masters programs can still bring dependent

So now we know national insurance is a way you file and pay for taxes while you work and live in the UK. So it means you still have to pay for taxes for the little 20hrs a week international students pay as part of their taxes right?
Also I know when you buy anything you pay taxes as well and if you want to watch anything related to television in the UK there is a fee you have to pay and I know for a fact UK is one of the highest paying countries when it comes to paying taxes. Am I correct this time or am I missing something.

I’m sorry for quoting you pretty much all the time but it’s important to correct a lot of misinformation coming from you.


The UK is not the highest when it comes to tax, not even top 5 in the world.

You don’t pay tax in everything you buy in the UK.

Infotubia9ja:
You sure? So you dont pay anything related to taxes in the UK?

So you wrote all that above based on assumptions? People should really be careful what they read and believe online

Infotubia9ja:
I was making refrence to some bills paid there.
But student pays for all others except the council tax but mostly when they file taxes each year more like council tax if we want to put it that way.
Television tax fee they pay for.
Food and other supplies you pay tax with it
And every other thing you pay taxes right

Students don't pay council tax at all and they don't pay ANY other tax apart from NI.

ednut1:
The msc is now pure water and useless. Chances of using it to get a good job is less than 1%. Why are people still doing this nonsense

This is not entirely true, a lot of people do get a job, the major prob here is....not coming out with a good result and not studying marketable course.

NiceLegs:
Hello everyone.

So am in a Telegram group where someone asked this this question.

"I want to study for a 2-year Master Degree in UK. Tution Fee is £17,000 per year. Meaning that I will pay £34,000 for the entire 2 years MSC course.
If I pay Tution deposit of £4000 from Nigeria for the first year, can I use 20hrs -per-week work to raise the remaining £13,000 for first year and also pay for the second year?
I need advice. "

Most Nigerians in UK started commenting say it is very possible to do it.

A guy said the person can secretly work more than 20hrs per week. That they will not catch the person.

They were telling the person to go ahead.

Some said it was not possible.

Now I am so confused.

This is because somebody I know is in a similar situation.

Please the person needs advice on this.

How can the person do this?

Experienced people abroad especially in UK who have done such 2 year courses, how did you do this?

No the person can not do it.

Working secretly more than 20hrs a week means doing cash inhand jobs which is illegal too and if caught your visa will be terminated immediately

Infotubia9ja:
I dont know about that but I think it might be doable if you dont have other experiences to pay like rent, council tax, food and groceries, and television tax etc if you have other ways of paying that then you might be able to do it i presume.

Again international students don't pay those especially council tax

Infotubia9ja:
No it's will not. Firstly it wont be easy for you to find a job just that quick and when you finally luckily do find one as an international student working 20hrs a week, after taxes, you will be left with bread crumbs. Mind you, the UK taxing system is one of the highest. So after pay that money wont be able to cover you house rent monthly talk more feeding before you come to paying your tuition fees.
Living abroad sometimes you need to be informed before you take that leap. Unless you have additional monthly source of income, it wont work. And please dont go work extra because if you get caught you just violated your student visa agreement and as such, you are liable for deportation.
Please get all the information you need before you make that final decision. Wish you all the best

This is not true, students don't tax, they only pay NI
