Properties / Re: The Making Of The "Captivating" 5 Bedrooms Duplex In Enugu by medoty: 10:57am On Mar 17, 2023
Boss building is something else now, if I know say my project will consume the amount it consumed now, I wouldn't have started it. 7m already gone at DPC level.

Excavation wahala
Labour na money
Chippings and sand na real money
220 bags of cement gone already
16mm rod 8.6k

But the good thing is after DPC, if you put 1m the project will make significant progress.

But thanks to Spyder for all the information.

Thank you Sir, I learnt a lot about building here and I am determined to do my best to complete the project by God's grace.

My brother, let's not discuss budgets in the open like this, it may discourage a lot of people who wants to build in other places. Costs in a location may be very different from costs in another location. Thanks.

Thank you for the update Sir. We will continue to follow for more updates and hopefully you will find time to do costs update for duplex to DPC.

The cement cost, I am confused because it is 4k plus in other places.

spyder880:
Haven seen the full picture of the costs of doing this foundation, as all the works are nearly completed, all costs paid for and every materials accounted for, I think I have the total costs of building this foundation till the cast of the DPC which is currently ongoing to completion. We have spent the following monies on both materials, workmanship and supervision of this stage of the project. Please feel free to ask me any questions about any of the materials, or lump sum which I allocated to some stages. Thanks.

1. Cost of removal of old house N10,000
2. Pegging materials/ wheel barrow N66,750
3. Cement (175) x 2543 = N445,025
4. 9" blocks (2275) 260 = N591,000
5. Trips of Sharp sand (14) 28,000 = N392,000
6. Chippings (2) 160,000 = N320,000
7. Local gravel (4) 53,000 = N212,000
8. Filling sand (32) 25,000 = N800,000
9. 16mm rods (18) 8500 = N153,000
10. 12mm rods (63) 4800 = N302,400
11. 8mm rods (35) 2500 = N87,500

Good morning Oga Spyder.

Thank you for all you have doing even though you not accepting our jobs in the North. We really appreciate your efforts in enlighten us. Please I have two questions.
How much is 8mm, 12mm and 16mm now?

Please I have experience building bungalow but I want to start duplex but afraid of the unknown. Can you please help me with rough estimate of Decking 3 bedroom duplex, the number of rods needed, the bag of cement and wood and marine board. Just rough estimate to give me a picture.

I am out of the country and I want to start my project and this is the only area that is giving me headache as I already plan for the other components of the project.


Thank you and God bless

VISA ALERT!!!

Application 2nd May
Biometric 5th May (3 child dependents TLS Abuja)
Transferred and received by DMC 5th May
NSF email for 2 dependants requesting for POF consent 24th May
Decision mail for applicant without NSF mail 9th June
Decision mail for the remaining applicants 16th June.

Seems Child visa is more stressful as they try to protect the children against possible trafficking and avoid litigations.

Alhamdullilah.
It is not easy waiting for visa. The tension and the anxiety but we thank God for everything.

Will advise to complete your studies with your present university and move to another city immediately except for serious issues like accreditation by NMC UK. Racism is almost everywhere just that it is more serious in other places than others.

It's possible to transfer but time consuming as you have to collect your transcript and first year results, get admission from the new university, the present university cancel your CAS, the new university issued you a new CAS and you apply for another Visa and pay IHS and Visa application fees even though they may refund the IHS later.

Do you have all the time for this? After all the Nursing Msc is 50 percent coursework and 50% placement and you will spend the remaining 9 months mostly in hospitals which are basically the same when it comes to the issue of racism.

I am saying this from my over two years experience as a support worker in over a dozen hospitals in the UK.

Thank you.
Nurnur:
@Justwise

Please, is it possible to transfer from one University in the UK to another University in the UK on the same course?

I am currently studying Nursing, and I am almost done with my first year. Still, for some personal family reasons and the level of racism in my current city (there are very few blacks in my current city), I would like to transfer to a University in the Midlands for Mental Health Nursing in September for my second year. I have been in talks with the University I want to move to, and it looks like it will be positive.

My only fear now is with my Student Visa.

Do I have to return to Nigeria to apply for a new Student Visa when the new University gives me a CAS, or can I apply for a new student visa within the UK?

Depending on when you get your visitors visa as a kid. They don't take biometric of children before 3 years for visa or passport, so if you are less than 3 years then you can apply without any issues.


Laurendee:
Good morning, pls what’s the best approach to this. Need honest responses

Planning to apply as a dependent with my husbands study permit. I want to know if I’ll have any issues with getting the visa.

Here’s the back information:

I have previously been given uk tourist visas in the past as a child, my dad applied for the visas. The issue is on the passport the date of birth on it is wrong, my dad made a mistake with a date of birth when getting the passport so he just continued with it and got visas for me with it. I obtained a new passport and changed the date of birth on the passport when I could to my normal date of birth so obviously ukvi has my biometrics attached to the details on that old passport with the wrong date of birth.

What can I do to address this without having any issues with obtaining visa to uk going forward? I have my birth certificate, change of dob affidavit, declaration of age certificate and other documents showing my real date of birth.

Pls kindly advice

I already have my Tier 4 visa before she applied.

I see no reason for paying for priority if you already have visa and all your documents are intact.

They make decisions on her application 48 hours after biometrics.

Austinadex:
Congratulations.... Please did you and your dependent apply together or you guys applied separately?

Or please is it general that dependent visa take a week processing time abi I should just do priority?

Yes, except if you will apply for waiver to write papers at both skills and foundation levels. I don't know if they can grant your request but there is no harm in trying.

Xpac123kid:
Good evening, please I want to clarify something. I have written 3 paper at foundation level in ICAN. I am left with Taxation and Business Management and finance which am planning to write this October. However I noticed Taxation which am yet to write have been moved to skills level. Do that mean I cannot write taxation anymore at foundation level?

Hi Gurus in the house.
I applied for biometric and selected self service and after uploading all the documents I realised I have to wait for TB test.

My question is should I have to wait for the results of the TB test before completing the upload and submit or I can submit and later upload the test?


Secondly, can I upload documents that were not ask?

Hi, please help.
Is dependent visa also £348? Because I am seeing £475.

is it tier 4 dependent or student dependent because I am not seeing tier 4 dependent anymore?
If anyone has a link to the dependent please post.

Does TLS Abuja have available date around 10th July? Can I apply for my patner now and later apply for the kids as the POF is not enough for all of us?

Fellow awardees, I just though of something and I will do it. Pls if u dont agree with my line of thought u dont need 2 criticize me because either u criticize me or not I will do it. Those that will agree with me and want 2 join me are welcome.___________________________
This is what I want 2 do: By Tuesday 11th Nov President GoodLuck will officially declare his intention to seek re-election. As an awardee I am going to print a big flex banner by tomorrow that will show appreciation to Mr President 4 his commitment to the empowerment of the youth through YouWiN! and I will inscribe on the banner boldly "YouWiN! Awardee say thank you for the YouWiN! Scheme" As at today I have received invitation to the declaration occasion, that means, I have been legally permitted to enter the venue.__________________
Pls those who will like to join me are welcome. Meaningful suggestions are welcome, but dont discourage me.
I think this issue come among Youwin 1 & 2 awardees in which many awardees kick against it.
One of the reasons been that it will affect the credibility of the program and make it look political.
They later contact the YOUWIN secretariat and I think the coordinator stop them.
But since you are doing it out of inner conviction to appreciate his efforts towards job creation, you can go ahead and I wish you well.
Education / Re: List Of Nigerian Undergraduate Scholarships And Their Worth by medoty: 10:02am On Nov 08, 2014
I was a recipient of NLNG, PETROBRAS, TOTAL, FGN and MTN scholarships.
During our days:
NLNG 50K later increase to 100K in 2010
PETROBRAS 75K increase to 100K in 2009
Total OML 130 150k while other assets 75k but now all the assets received 150k
FGN 150k
MTN 200k
Petrobras test the most difficult of all the tests. Nearly collapsed after the test at Afe Babalola hall, UNILAG.
The most simplest I think is Total.
Chai I enjoy these scholarships. Just become big boy over night. Bought a car, built a house and got married. But in 100 level I dey manage with garri and beans with one trouser and two shirts throughout the year.
