Hi, it’s over 40 days I applied for ihs refund and yet to receive, while the email sent says: 28 days. What do you suggest I do? Also, will I get a notification when they refund it? Cos I don’t trust the person that owns the account number I used in the payment.

I believe the Home Office is now conducting interviews for skilled visa roles. Not sure though if it's universal, but best to be prepared just in case.
Okay thank you.

Please for someone that applied for skilled worker visa - construction from Nigeria, is an interview expected after biometrics? I need a real life experience because ChatGPT says there’s no interview.

So there's this stuff people at my work place claim, about £140 pounds tax relief for washing your uniform, they said I could apply for it too. I've gone through it and I tick all the boxes, but I don't know if it's public fund and if I'm entitled to it. Make 140 quid no go purge belle. Please does anyone know about it and am I safe to go ahead with it.

For a start.
Are you on student or care visa.

I formerly work as a care assistant now I work fully as a support worker.
Send an email to the email on my profile and I'll share my editable UK CV with you and give you a few of the company I know are recruiting or that I've worked with in the past and presently.
Good luck and welcome to the UK.
DO NOT PAY ANY AGENT!

Thank you so very much. This is helpful.

1. Get a UK format CV and come up with at least 2 different CVs. One for cleaning, casual warehouse and production job and one for your professional data analyst job.

2. Go to indeed, CV warehouse, CV-library and search for warehouse and production job. Make sure your cv aligns with the job specifications and ensure you send at least 30 applications in a day for a week then come back and testify. If you or your wife have a car, try and drive to the venue of the day of interview- e get reason for this.

Good luck.



Hello,

Please I am new in the UK for the past week, I've collected my BRP (which comes with NIS), opened a bank account, registered with a GP,... Is there anything I need to do?

Please I want to ask for job recommendations, any job at all. I live in Woolwich London, is their genuine job agencies I can register with to fasten my job hunting. Please I need suggestions, as I have no one here for guardian. Every relation and friends I had while in Nigeria has turned their back at me for reasons I can't fathom. Please brothers, you people are my last resort.

Thank you all. Hoping to get my stand through this platform .

Thank you lots. Well appreciated.
bigtt76:
You have got a very powerful visa though so make the most out of it now before all the rogbodiyan take over cheesy

Since you got some skills ...next would be to start updating your CV to match the UK format (if you haven't already done that) and begin searching for jobs in that line.
TravelRe: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Lilymond(f): 1:18pm On Dec 23, 2023
I hold a dependent visa
Searching for any job at all.
Can make many Nigerian dishes, data Analyst, hair stylist, Farmer. Was a public health worker before I left Nigeria. But don't wanna venture into that cos I lack the necessary trainings, so I need a job that requires little or no training so as to save up money for the necessary trainings. For now, I have no choice doing any legit work, hence it pays my bills. Thanks
ReesheesuKnack:
@ the bolded: No. NO. I repeat, NO.
They haven’t. They. Have. Not. They are (probably) extremely very busy and possibly struggling big time too.

Now back to the crux.
What sort of visa do you have?
What sort of skills do you already have (from Naija)?
What types/kinds of jobs are you eyeing?
The answers will help folks to help you with recommendations.

Hello everyone,

I'm at a crossroads in my career and seeking advice. I hold a master's in Public Health Education and a bachelor's in Health Education. I'm torn between pursuing a career as a Health Policy Analyst or a Health Promotion Specialist. I'm equally interested in both but would appreciate suggestions based on demand in the UK, job opportunities, salary, and overall professionalism. Thanks for your insights!

Schoolhike:
Lots of reasons.

If cv and cover letter are okay and relevant to the job, I think for every 10-20 applications to private companies should at least give you 1 interview.

Civil service should be say like 10 good applications should at least give you 3-5 interviews.
Ok thank you. Please, would you mind taking a look at my CV and cover letter? Can I email you?

Ooh wow thanks alot for your response. Please if you don't mind, what's NI?

giselle237:
Congrats. It is Tier 2 dependent visa, not spousal visa. Spouse visa is for partners of British citizens and settled persons.
You are not in country yet, Your chances will increase then, also you would have your BRP and can apply for your NI when you enter. Post further questions on the living in uk thread for assistance.

Good day my brothers and sisters,

I want to know if there's something I'm not doing well. I hold a master's degree in public Health Education and bachelor's degree in health education. I'm open to corrections and recommendations. Thanks in advance.

Nb: thanks for all you do here. It's been helpful.

you have probably downloaded a malware. it happened to my colleague at work but his phone is now better than ever. back up your data and format the phone. once the phone restarts as new, make sure you install any software update from the manufacturer. pls make sure you download apps mostly from playstore. so many apps outside are not friendly to your phone especially those apps usually on infinix and tecno phones
