Don't waste your £8K.

Read this first

Money to support yourself (‘financial requirement’)

You’ll need to show you have enough money to support yourself - unless you’ve been in the UK with a valid visa for at least 12 months on the date of your application.

How much money you need depends on where you will be studying. You’ll need either:

£1,483 per month (for up to 9 months) for courses in London
£1,136 per month (for up to 9 months) for courses outside London

Immigration Health Surcharge




The exact amount you pay depends on the length of your visa.

A visa may last longer than your course of study or period of employment.
Cost for a year

You’ll have to pay:

£776 per year for students, their dependants, and those on a Youth Mobility Scheme visa, for example £1,552 for a 2-year visa
£776 per year for visa and immigration applicants who are under the age of 18 at time of application
£1,035 per year for all other visa and immigration applications, for example £3,105 for a 3-year visa

Good evening All,

Please I was just told that UK no longer allows someone going for Masters to bring dependants. Please I need genuine response on how true this information is.

Also, they said the chances of securing job is extremely slim now.
Your brother is right, masters course will not allow you to bring dependant only when. Its research based masters course. Jobs are not readily available, however with good results people are still getting jobs.

This is not entirely true, yes he gave money to protesters who were arrested and detained by EFCC, they were 4 boys , 3 are freed but one is still in EFCC jail because apparently EFCC alleged that they found something in his phone.

VDM promised to give those 4 1m each to start up something.

I meant no be care homes many of us ended up in parking shit... No one has passion in working in care homes
You are wrong, a lot of people have the passion for care job, many love looking after elderly people. Before the introduction of COS and recruitment of foreign workers, caregivers were mainly done by people with papers.

No be shit we de park take pay bills?
Do we have passion for it.


So many of my colleagues now have returned to take a nursing accelerated programme including me after spending over 18k pounds in my previous art course
You are not paying £££££ to park shit, its not the same as paying a lot of money to study a course you have no interest or passion for.

If every single foreign student jump into medical or tech course within a short period that area becomes saturated.

One of the reasons why we have a lot of graduates with no job is because many studied a course that sounds fancy and lucrative even when they don't have what it takes to comes out with good result.

PLEASE!!! Leave Interest & Passion one side.

The countries you're immigrating to are telling you that they prefer people with STEM backgrounds and you're talking sheet angry angry angry

If you want to pursue your interest and passion, remain in your country.

It's useless talk like this that made Nigeria raised generations of unskilled people in the last 30 years where many became Criminals, Terrorists, Bandits, Prostitutes, Corrupt government officials etc

People should embrace Health Sciences, Mathematics, ICT, Engineering, Skills Trade and Agricultural Studies, these are what the developed countries are looking for cool cool cool


If you are not good or have passion for any of these course you mentioned then what?

Paying mortgage for another 30 years sealed!!! Nothing special about this. The worst place to own a home is in Western countries.
30 yrs of paying mortgage? How about life time of paying rent to landlord? Basically you are paying landlord's mortgage.

I believe strongly that they do.

People literally die in the US due to not having money to pay for medication. The UK is great in that respect, especially compared to a place like the US.

And it's not just healthcare, also security, public transport, public amenities etc.

I do agree that people being too quick to become dependent on benefits is a problem, but that's a separate issue - the threshholds need to be higher so only people who actually need them can get them.
Couldn’t have said it better, the fact that you get treated first despite your immigration status is a huge plus for me. You can not put a price tag on the value of the healthcare system here.

So that means the same group of people involved in the scam are also on Nairaland.

Nairaland admins can help by tracing them using their login credentials (email info, IP etc) and report to the EFCC, that's assuming your claim is genuine.
They register the ID just to report posts in this thread, they don’t post. These criminals don’t register here with genuine details, so it’s pointless tracking them. People just have to be careful

Is it not when people here are encouraged to consider other options that some folks here will come up and remind everyone that Nigerians are not qualified? The uk doesn't want people to stay but it becomes headache to some folks here for them to try other options but are happy to see uk drive folks away. Which kind of devilish attitude is this?
You really have time to listen to such nonsense. It takes far too long to get Canadian visa, many will be waiting for decision on their visa applications for 6months up while the UK makes that decision within 3months or less. A good number of Nigerians move from the UK to Canada because decision making on visa application is faster.

I don't see a lot of Nigerians packing their stuff and leave for Nigeria because of this policy, many will definitely stay back.

The abuse was not the original bone of contention here but the notion that Nigerians were never qualified for certain categories of visas was the bone of contention. It was as if the abuse was the major reason Nigerians could get uk visas easily compared to other countries and that’s never true.
I'm just wondering why some of you are wasting your time engaging in such pointless argument.

Once there's a surge of Nigerians anywhere some people will just conclude that the system has been abused forgetting we are a people with one of the highest number of degree holders in the world. That's how they also conclude we don't read too. Lots of Nigerians are in the uk through the global talent route (tech, academic research and fashion) am sure very soon they will say that has been abused too. Am sure the global talent route guys won't have qualified for Canada too in their own eyes. Utter rubbish
Totally agree with almost everything you said here except the abuse part, Nigerians and Indians most especially abused the system in a massive scale through student visa and COS and the government allows this to go on for years, unfortunately genuine Nigerians are affected.

It became normal for people to buy bank statements from agents so as to get a visa, people coming in with fake marriage certificates etc

Some Nigerians turned the abuse to full time business, they are in TikTok, facebook instagram unashamedly advertising it.

You haven spoken well.
But as Nigerian you really can't be comparing yourself with a brit working as an expatriate in those countries earning more than he/she would ordinary make in Britain.
The comparison is unbalanced.
Reason being the brit is born with a first world passport that alone has many Benefits grin beyond the reach of an average Nigerian with a green passport smiley.

But when you get your passport, of course you can travel relocate to anywhere you desire and become the Brit that working far from home earning higher.
Did you really type that?

You make some valid points , but I don't think he's only referring to the care industry.

There are other industries that can and should do more to recruit and train younger people.
I have worked with and know young people on degree and other apprenticeship programmes who are studying and also working and gaining relevant skills in data analysis, electrical engineering etc.
The willingness is there but opportunities like these are relatively few and far between.

The government should do more to incentivise companies, such as a reduction in employers NI or grants (the Tories did a good job in the days of Cameron to promote apprenticeships) and
to remove the stigma that still exists around apprenticeship programmes.
Then they are providing a solution for a non-existing problem, the whole out cry about immigration numbers was mainly about the number of people that came in through care and student visa, The govt will not train the young people to work in care sector or fill in the spaces in universities created by shortage of foreign students.

This govt turned the blind eye while they Rake in millions in visa and COS fees, thousands came in with little or no check, settle down then they are hit with this harsh immigration policy.

Give it 2yrs this same shameless govt will start singing another tune

All cheap political talk, your young ones will not do those jobs done by foreign workers.

These young and middle aged Brits can't stand their elderly parents...they will send them straight to care homes to be care-for by those foreign workers.

1.In all these, primarily i blame the British govt that allowed the COS and student visa abuse to go on for far too long as they profit from it

2. Nigerians, Indians mainly contribution to this dragonia immigration policy because the immigration system was abused in a massive scale from 2020 to 2024.

3. Greedy/criminal agents who sold COS(fake or genuine), they brought people in with no shift and many end up relying on food banks to survive, calming asylum with made up stories etc.

These three parties actions are not affecting many who played by the book
