I believe your brother will probably need P.T.A (personal travel allowance) and not B.T.A (business travel allowance). Still still, he will definitely need to have it with him. Not as debit or credit card, but physical cash (foreign hard currency). Best of luck to your brother with his journey.

But, isnt BTA also sometimes referred to as Basic travel allowance which is same thing as PTA.?

NezzyMike:
Are you answering me with a question? I want to confirm the authenticity.

Wasn't answering.
Rather asked a question.
Like another op has said, that would be up to the policy makers to decide if demands and supply has been met.
No policy/backbenchers here. How you confirm the authenticity of the info is on you at this time.
If you want to go through that route and qualified, sieze on the opportunity whilst it last and leave fear of the unknown to those focusing on that.

NezzyMike:
Someone told me skilled worker visa (Carers) will be stopped by February 2023, I don't know how true is the information

And?

Jaysleeves:
The link is broken , please where in Lagos can I register ?

Not sure why it is broken!!
Insert PTE on your search engine and follow prompts.
Be careful to opt for the appropriate test for the category of visa you would be applying for.

The truth is, no additional tip is needed to be paid depending on individual circumstances. However if you need it urgently/ same day then you need to tip. Hence you need to wait for about 3weeks to a month[b][/b] to get it without tipping anyone. I hope that helps.

With due respect � not entirely true.
You don't need any plug to get through the whole process within 72hrs.

Hello everyone.
Please help a sister I started this journey in February, I have sent out almost a thousand applications and still nothing. I have all the requirements, I have the relevant experience, I have done the important courses, I still go to volunteer in the hospital I did my training just to be up to date. I apply everywhere, NHS, Indeed, Glass door, Totaljobs, Reed, LinkedIn, the list of sponsors on gov.uk and other sites I can't even remember, but I am yet to get any positive feedback except interview invites for people already in the UK. Please is there anything others are doing differently? [b][/b]

Tenacity!! Keep applying. Regularly updating your profile/cv.

abdulkabeer:
Good morning great community

Hope he’s good to go? [b][/b]

Yes!!
Also he should check is junk,spam,promotion or social folders.

Any idea on how to change from tier4 visa to tier2? agency or company that can help?

Either way to do this, you would have to secure a job with an agency/company or whatever that is willing to issue you an undefined COS, and from there you can take things up with your application and the HO.
Do a good cv, apply to places that suit your profile. Similarly if you are currently working whilst studying inquire of the HR if they offer jobs and can support you with a cos.

But NL is mostly Nigerian community, or are you seeking for online irritating excuses?

DFmum:
Please I need a genuine site to book flight and how can I make the flight flexible?

The airline official websites.
But if you are buying through agents, they also provide such options with additional cost.. make sure to put your request in in whichever case.

AHUPEACE:
Good morning my people
I need to know if Cambridge exam is for those applying for spouse visa. Is iELTS the same as Cambridge exam?? If they aren’t the same so which is best for spousal visa application?

Cambridge is one of the official bodies that conducts IELTS.
Similarly Cambridge offers English test where you could use for migrational purposes.
Which is best, depends on you, which you are able to achieve the required grade for your visa category.

sethtsadopp:
The Visa has to be uploaded on the tradesystem platform? The thing is Singapore Visa is e-visa and they don't stamp your passport.

Upload the e-visa you have. It should contain details of your travel documents that corresponds to the visa.

Claudia00:
Good evening all.

NO
Vaccinated, partially vaccinated, not vaccinated.

Olatravel:
sir am not forcing anyone
Many people are outside there looking for such opportunities soo please okay

Take thee, thy family and ply the route first.
Or is none related to you not looking for such opportunity?

mamawa123:
I know some people will fall for this

Pages like this should be closed rather than make it to the front page.
This would undoubtedly truncate businesses for human traffickers and protect hunger of desperate and naive people.

LiciaT:

Good day everyone. I need advice as to how my wife, a Nurse can relocate to the UK with our baby girl. I want to know the process and the financial cost. I'd appreciate candid and realistic opinions. Thank you.

1.She needs to get a job.(I.e get a defined COS if she is not in the UK)
2. Sequel to success number 1, you and the girl qualify to join her as dependant.
3. No. 2 gives birth to number 3. Meet the UK home office skilled worker visa requirements to apply for a work permit..
Cost varies, in some cases it could come at no cost and in some cases with cost.
Click on page 1 of UK Skilled Worker Visa / Health And Care Worker Visa thread to equip yourself more on the routes of where she can start and as a guide

surplusbaba:
Got this refusal just now. Although it self explanatory but Can someone please advice the way forward? I need to know the best time to reapply. Thanks

Your financial dealings for the period supplied was inconsistent.
Best time to reapply would be whenever you're able to demonstrate, that you have sufficient funds for purpose of your travel.

giselle237:
quick question pls.
Has anyone applied for PTA in the last 1 month from FCMB, UBA or First Bank and successfully received in cash? Asking for relatives pls

I think the aforementioned banks ask their customers to create a dollar/dom account, giving just about 10% of the $4000, and the rest into the acc...

Moregoody:
Please advise me, which is better?
The PTE OR THE IELTS general UKVI

Either is good and accepted by the UK Home office as would be applicable to your migration requirements.
What makes one better sometimes is down to individuals and other factors. Just do a bit research on both and weigh your abilities and capabilities as to which you would score the required marks or grades needed in each section of the test.

Lexyp:

lightofjoy:
Hello Gurus in the house, I applied for some openings in the UK and some of the firm are requesting for a valid UK phone number as they want to have a chat with me as per the work.

Please what should I do as am presently in Nigeria.

Send them your Nigerian number, and state you are not present in the country. It is what it is. What is meant to be would be, one of the firms may just proceed with establishing the chats and non may, at the end of it, you would need to keep putting out applications until you get one that suits you..

Ibkpeace01:
Abeg who has a link?

You don't need any link or plug,
Go online their website is possap.gov.ng, create an account, pay the 30k and visit the station you would choose, do biometrics, within 24hrs you would receive your docs via your email.

If you seek link,plug, be ready to pay 20k you don't want to.

JPB2:
Please if you are goin for CARER route, I do advice you go for IELTS UKVI GENERAL don't go on Any assumption spree

NURSES AND Doctors have an association that have made them accept any other results

But Carer route is specifically IELTS GENERAL UKVI or NARIC


No go collect woto woto for Embassy it's them that do the denials not the office offering u employment

What woto woto for embassy or assumption spree? Why would the embassy deny you if you achieved the right English % and as required and the right category of exams (i.e the general/academy or UKVI)?

PTE exams is recognised and accepted by the UK home office for migration and study purposes. To include (Canada, Australia, USA, and other English speaking countries accepts it where necessary). There's no woto woto or assumption.

Ibkpeace01:
Thanks for this info God bless you which one will you advice out of the two (IELTS UKVI and PTE UKVI)

Well both exams I would say have same degree in terms of difficulty and you would need a bit of studying on how to unlock a passing strategy to either of the exams.

But if you short with time and need an English test to proof your eligibility to proceed with your application you may wish to seriously consider the PTE academic UKVI or her PTE general as would be applicable.

You only need to score 43/44% in each of the sections for UK health care work visa(speaking, listening, writing and reading), % requirements for other visa and migration categories may vary.
Your results are sent to you electronically-(email), as well they send to any body you indicate during your exams registration (i.e UK Home office, Universities or other migration border agencies you would have indicated during registration of your exams.

Ps. PTE is solely computer based, even the speaking sections of the exams.

Bryanbella:
Please house I need your advice. Which is preferable? IELTS computer based or paper based?

For what?

If for migration purposes go for IELTS UKVI. And also you may wish to try PTE UKVI(though this is only computer based) results are ready from 24hrs after taking the test and dates easily available, it is a few thousands cheaper than IELTS and accepted for Health care work visa. For plab and nursing exams IELTS and OET should be your choice.

Cristiano12:
Hello with this your 2yrs standard visitor visa will u be able to use am to work there? And if no. How do u cope there in terms of to make money and sustaining…

Pls kindly reply . Will appreciate that.. cause am also trying the Uk process and I need link up from there cause I don’t know anyone there. And I don’t want to go there and find no place to stay. Though I know one person but I don’t want to depend on him much… any link up from you will be appreciated pls.

You can not work with a 2years standard visitor visa and you are only allowed to stay a maximum of 180days (6months),I.e is if you stay beyond 6months in a single visit without existing the UK and her borders you are abusing the 2years visa.

If you want to move to the UK to work, explore the appropriate means, secure a job, you don't need anyone there to do this nor have any reason to worry of being stranded.
