A friend is three years into support but still writing his CFA... ILR would soon come, CFA would be ready by then too.

He go come become biggest man... ILR and CFA. Sodiki.

After 5 years of being a healthcare worker right?

Dey play

Some of our motivational speakers here think otherwise

1000000000% facts

Called up a friend some weeks back cos I didn't see him in class, Baba said he switched to care visa, from Cybersecurity Msc. I was shocked

Told two people I wanted to start writing my dissertation and they literally made fun of me for not outsourcing it. Do you think people like that have actual plans after school?
Just go to school, outsource class work, 0 certs, 0 internship, 0 experience from Nigeria. What do you expect? COS from care homes may be the only option

Too many funny things I have seen in this UK waka abeg

Sometimes comprehension is better than coming here to open your mouth Waaa! You know very well that this platform is gradually disappearing off the radar, and it is partly due to your lack of seeing things from the perspectives of others.

You no fit know everything, and besides, how many Nigerians dey travel based on legally?

You advised that he stays back, in this kind of Economy? The suffer na your own?

That you are a moderator here doesn't give you the rights to poke at people unprovoked. If we all leave NL and you and your family go dey comment?

Abeg shift.

igbsam:
How did you go about this renegotiation ? I intend to do that with them too

I can also argue that many Nigerian that migrated to the UK using the student visa route in the last 2years are not qualified for the UK student visa.

But then again people will attack me. But let's examine it without bias or prejudice.

The UK Student visa is point base. To qualify you need a total of 40points.
CAS = 30points
Proof of sufficient fund = 10points

Many Nigerians (majority in my uni and cohorts) used fraudulent means to obtain the last 10 points. So genuinely speaking they did not meet the criteria and if UKVI had discovered they would've been banned.

The influx of immigrants that the UK is complaining about is mainly from Indians (+subcontinent) and Nigerians and these are also the group that uses the most fraudulent means to secure visa ( Selling of COS and Fraudulent POF). This is the truth and we all know it. But if I talk am, everybody go tag me as enemy of progress.

I personally can not say this outside the community but as na we we dey here, make we tell ourselves the truth.

What i

heroshark:
Stop the hypocrisy and check the Nigerians among you, mostly those working in care sector, how many of them have the education (not including any MSc obtained in the UK) , skillset, experience and age to secure the top CRS point for Canada PR route ?

heroshark:
You just reemphasized everything I said about. It's cheaper to go to Canada yet they chose UK that's more expensive without a direct PR option why?

It take more time to process Canada visa, which is why I said those that rushed to the UK. The emphasis on rush.

heroshark:
So an immigrant shouldn't have an opinion? Why are you all pretending ? Most people paying £10k to get a care COS from Nigeria, if they qualify for Canada PR they won't be paying such outrageous sum to come to the UK to do care.
Over 80% of Nigerians that migrated from Nigeria to the UK on skilled worker visa came through the heathcare worker route.

So when I said many Nigerian that rushed to the UK won't qualify for Canadian student or PR route I stand by it 100%.

I've met many that have been denied either Canada or US student visa b4 trying the UK.

Stop the hypocrisy and check the Nigerians among you, mostly those working in care sector, how many of them have the education (not including any MSc obtained in the UK) , skillset, experience and age to secure the top CRS point for Canada PR route ?

I know we have some very brilliant and talented Nigerians in the UK, so I try not to generalize.

The keywords in my post is Many not majority and rush (you can't rush to Canada, it's simply impossible).

hustla:
I doubt US does any check at all

hustla:
UK does verify but then people pay to have funds in account for long periods

What they can do is block funds like Germany. Germany effectively reduced migration from Nigeria with that singular policy

Goke7:
Canada too has same problem of fake admission letters of acceptance especially in recent times with over 700 students from India affected so this excuse of abuse of system is not particular to the uk or Nigeria.

Don’t divert from the main issues, the uk cannot continue to use abuse of the system as an excuse of hostile immigration policies cos it happens everywhere. Is not time the Uk give more attention to its struggling economy and stop using immigration as an excuse to deceive many of its ignorant citizens?

heroshark:
Canada let in the brightest and most talented people through the PR scheme, many of the people that rushed to the UK will not even be eligible to enter Canada either through student route or the PR route you mentioned.
.

heroshark:
80% of Nigerian students in my cohort did fake proof of fund and were struggling to pay tuition, most of them are married with kids and average age above 30years old. There is no way many of them will be granted Canadian student visa unless they are on scholarship or going for PhD.

How is it not true ?

PS: I didn't say all, I said many.

toughest007:
This was the key driver why you got that low-cost £21 + 4months free package. They know their signal strength is weak in your area.

Networks with stronger signals may have higher package!

heroshark:
Canada let in the brightest and most talented people through the PR scheme, many of the people that rushed to the UK will not even be eligible to enter Canada either through student route or the PR route you mentioned.

I don't know why this argument always boils down to comparing UK immigration policies with other countries like Canada and Australia. Each country is unique and will do what they think it's best for their country. If you don't like it then move to Canada or Australia (But then again most people can't because they won't meet the criteria)

The truth remains that why the UK had good intentions but people and immigrants alike abused the system which then makes it unsustainable and they have to restrategise.

People selling COS
People having fake marriages to bring in dependents
Student coming to UK without any means of paying tuition
People rushing on Student visa without any intention of studying and abandoning their studies for carework

These are the issues that is causing the problems.

ehizario2012:
Oh okay.

How did the mobile broadband not work out? Please share.

Also is it possible to renegotiate fixed broadband deals?

Thanks

Abuja1914:
Please, I would like to know if it is advisable to buy car from Facebook market place. I considered prices of cars are relatively cheaper there than other platforms like car gurus, Gumtree etc. I'm always very skeptical when sellers direct me to email after making requests for the availability of cars of my choice.

I want people to share their experiences...

ehizario2012:
I am not sure if this offer is still on, but how much was setup cost? What's the speed?

toughest007:
What year was this?

Goke7:
Let’s just guess it was frustration and pressure of school that led him to this but with all the rhetoric these days of net migration any loophole will be taken advantage of. Reason we admonish people to be careful, it’s a free democratic society but with lots of unwritten caveats especially for folks on a visa.

toughest007:
£31.99 + three months free is a decent deal.

I paid £40 (no free month) for one year and now paying £35.

Zahra29:
Agreed, a mental health assessment should have been carried out which might have mitigated or cancelled his sentence.

I wonder if perhaps they felt that if he was well enough to attend his classes, then he should have had sufficient mental capacity to understand the implications of the threats he was making.

Or perhaps they just decided to take the quicker and cheaper route.

Goodenoch:
What law is it that says that whites must be examined mentally before being charged, but not Africans, as you've implied?

Whatever that means, still not cool, mate. Subtle humiliation.

toughest007:
I laughed out really loud. Interesting and disgusting to say the least.

Some church denominations are really evolving! Evolving on the negative angle. And some blokes are here saying they care less what those men whipping and touching the asses of those ladies do with their hard earned monies.

If you are a tithe adherent, same may eventually start happening to you.

Consequences of not paying tithes

You would think the older they get the wiser they become, but fools do get old too. Damn Nigerians!

Fatbabyfart:
As someone who's planning on migrating to Canada for Masters after completing my Bachelor's degree here in Nigeria.
Where do I start from, which institution have good acceptance rate for Nigerians and also can I get scholarship with a 2:2.

Any helpful thread suggestion.
