AlphaUno:
If you are coming in into the UK, especially as a student or a dependent, you need to get these ASAP in your first days of entering to give you some sort of soft landing

BRP
NIN (National Insurance Number)
Bank Account
Proof of Address (Accommodation)

These four above will ease your life greatly in your first few days / weeks. Meanwhile, getting no.4 is not for the faint hearted especially for a family.


1. BRP is already waiting for you in your chosen location (post office or school)

2. NI you apply online via the almighty gov . uk site with your BRP n other docs (it takes weeks 1-16 max to be issued the number and very easy steps to navigate)

3. Bank account : thank God for online banks, those old generation banks (HSBC,Lloyds, RBS etc) will ask you to bring your ancestral land allocation form from God
Nevertheless, you still need them big time in your journey of life in d UK.
So, to cross this hurdle use this MONZO referral link below for now and when you get settled big time, you go for the old gen banks

https://join.monzo.com/c/v95pvrl

(You get £5 for signing up thru it when you make card payment within 30 days of opening the account)

4. Accommodation start browsing these sites
Rightmove
Gumtree
Zoopla
Open rent (you interact with property owners directly but beware of scammers fronting as landlords)
Facebook market etc (beware of scammers)
Word of mouth
Friends and family connect

You can get your accommodation sorted right while still in 9ja. I know some who did thru a known agent.
Meanwhile, You might need the following if eventually you get a letting agent or a landlord who is ready to rent a property to you.
- a UK based guarantor (a citizen or homeowner or both)
- a deposit fee (just like refundable caution fee for 9ja)
- an holding fee (to get the property off market; refundable)
- a month rent

NOTE If these sites don’t give you what you want, then have your minimum of 6 months rent ready

Opportunities abound but Chinese, Indians and others are taking over.

Prepare and plan adequately

Hello,

Again I disagree at the bolded,

It doesn't have to be a big company, as long as they have the license to sponsor or are willing to get one for that role or position.

Here's the link for people who are interested in keeping an eye on those companies

*Visa Alert*
It’s been a long and bumpy journey but God has been good to me.
Applied for a visiting visa and got denied in October 2021 for lack of evidence of sources of funds and travel history.
Started the student visa process immediately with hopes of japa-ing in January.
I’m a third class holder and didn’t want premasters because of the funds involved so I started applying to different schools, Coventry was the first to give me admission but the fees was just too high. Oxford Brooke’s followed with Birmingham city uni and I chose Oxford Brooke’s because it was direct masters for management in health and social care with 13,900 tuition fees. Paid the tuition deposit and then they refused me cas because I declared my previous visa refusal to their Isat, they said they were afraid I will get another refusal. I was so devastated cos at the them they did this, I had already missed Coventry’s deadline(Dec 18th). I already had my tb test result and had to start all over applying to schools and looking for Jan start. I eventually got University of west London and sunderland the same time. Sunderland also refused me cas because of my previous visa refusal. I had to go UWL even with the 10k deposit required. Did their precas interview and passed but they too denied me cas because of my previous visa refusal! At this point I didn’t know what to do again, time was going, pof was ready and only cas remained. I now sent them a very lengthy mail explaining myself and situation that moved them and they offered me a deferment instead to June as I wasn’t going to be able to make January start when they responded. They gave me a new offer and issued my cas on the 9th of April.
Biometrics was on the 11th of April
1st paid mail 11th of may, no decision made
Got slammed with NSF mail requesting nothing on the 13th of May
Second paid mail 17th of May no decision
Third paid mail 24th of may, decision made
Application transferred to VAC on the 26th of May
Collection mail same 26th
Picked up today
Tls-VI
Documents submitted: cas, pof, waec certificate, passport data page and bsc certificate(self service).
5years study gap.
Wishing all those awaiting Goodnews soonest IJN

Visa Alert!
First time posting! It would have been a disservice if after all I have learnt here, I don't give back.
So firstly God never fails!
We picked our our visas today
Family of 5 ( oldest kid 15 and youngest 3)
Started the process September last year and was originally planning for January but school deferred admission to June it has been a very long journey.
Biometrics done 8th of April at ikeja

Tb test, marriage certificate, pictures of family and of cos POF.
I have 20 year study gap, though I have taken several short courses including 2 short course done in the UK a few years ago.
No Nsf mail received.
Lessons I learnt is no short cut with this thing, be ready to read and research, I spent a lot of time searching for information both here and on Google and of the UKVI site ( information there is very robust). For nairaland, I would use keywords to search for whatever I needed and got quite a lot of answers without having to ask questions. I really must thank the moderators.
God bless grant us all our heart desires. (Amen)

Na the same. Good luck and quick recovery. Eat it with the fried groundnut o, at least twice a day. P.s. it lowers high blood pressure too, so be sure it doesn't cause it to go too down for you.

vickydevoka:

What's de name of the flower. Since i had ulcer my back waist hasn't gone completely. N i really need to cure it b4 i travel out

Elliot2:
It works better with the fried groundnut; it is not effective without it. Buy twenty or fifty naira worth of groundnut. You will chew the two together. Please, I want to see a picture of the one you have found. I need to be sure it is the same flower.
