Presh2021:
So I was contacted by CO to provide:

SOA showing my salary for 3months.
Tax clearance for me and my wife each.
Marriage ties:
Submitted a Picture story, my in law did affidavit confirming our marriage, our shared receipts, transactions between us since 2019.

For my wife:
Her practising license as a Doctor.
Verification of employment.
Tax clearance.

What I submitted before contact by CO:
- All the document in my school checklist A1.
- Submitted also land documents to consolidate.
- I didn't submit SOA but CO asked for it, it's a couple student visa so we anticipated for that any way.

Let me use this opportunity to thank everyone here who have become my family on WhatsApp, you guys rock, shout out to @Dr.Soji...Xhoba...and many others like Val and co.

At the end of it all, all the glory to Jesus.
It was a miracle, it was God!!
Just keep praying.

What God cannot do does not exist!

Guys, in the pursuit for success and greener pasture, there are laws you all must know. These laws must be adhered to, followed and kept in heart. Never forget these laws. If you don't keep this to mind, you may crash or have a stunted progress...

Law 1- When you travel, as a newbie who is trying to settle in, never be too quick to fall to the pressure of sending money back home. Give yourself atleast a year to get very balanced (in most cases, less than a year you are fine, in few cases you are still struggling after a year)


Law 2- if you are not travelling the legal way (studies or work) you may regret it, you may later make it but it will take you a longer years of suffering, regrets and depression. Some may never even make it. The best way to become a legal residence is always through studies.... See bah! School is a scam only in naija, when you study here, even as an undergraduate you are eligible to work for top multinational companies.... Your BSc is worshiped here, not to even talk about your Msc.... You will never regret if you come through studies and follow through. I repeat, you will never regret.

Law 3- Mingle more with the foreigners and learn from them, they are the people who can really help you. A black man can't help you, he is by default angry and jealous to watch you not progress than him. Need I tell you my job I got for a multinational firm was gotten through a ladies referral in Poland? Did we date-No! It's why I always debunk the cases of racism because people preach about it to the. Extreme as tho some blacks don't show reasons to be hated on.

Rule 4- Stay away from Nigerian ladies... They have nothing to offer you. I don't mean, you shouldnt talk or discuss with them.. But I recommend not dating them. Look, travelling comes with its downsides and that is majorly LONELINESS... In the pool of attraction, most of these ladies aren't attractive to foreigners, rather its the naija guys who always get attracted to foreign ladies... You don't want anyone who will milk you and have no value in your life. When you Start making money here, you will be tempted by many of these naija girls to date them. Don't! I repeat Don't.... They are looking to prey on you because no one looks their way at this phase.

5. Remember home- Some spend years travelling and never look to remember where they came from. It's possible because they are still illegal and yet to get their papers, however when you are settled and well to do, always remember home and where you came from. If you have a brother who always asks for money. Invite him over and take him out of naija.... Let's be honest.... When you say it's not easy here you know you lie.... Stop those lies and help your siblings to travel rather than sending money all the time making them your slaves. .


Stick to this laws and you will be fine, be open to foreigners... Seek to build network with them, you will never loose. You musn't date all but you will sure get the best of their friendship.

My story continues on my experience. Next

For those who have taken their test with British Council this year, please, I would like to know how the speaking test arrangement looks like. Is it one on One with the examiner or via video call? my test is in 2days.

I have been trying to register for the exams for a while now, but I can’t seem to pass the stage where I input post code/Zip.

Ok first of let me say this it's different strokes for difficult folks
Some people spend alot of time studying while some prepare under a week

Personally I didn't have time to study for a long period and I didn't have funds to pay for classes
I prepared under the space of a week because I had to get it done as soon as possible
So I studied with the e2 IELTS YouTube channel ( they have great content) and I took tips from some other channels which I can't remember but basically I used e2 IELTS
I also took a free mock test from their channel it's a 5hour long video of what the test looks like I think that helped me alot
I got 6.5 which is not to high compared to some people's results but basically you need to get a 6 so I guess 6.5 is good too
Uhmm.. generally you should focus more on the reading it's most difficult...the listening should be the easiest... try not to loose focus even if you skipped a question already (basically study with e2 you'll get all this there)
Then if you can afford it you can pay for more classes just to make sure you're fully prepared and you pass it once
That was it for me. I'm open to any other questions as regards my experience �

Annidenobeh:
I took my test last week Monday.. I had to send them an email and I saw my results this morning I think you should try to check it again online if not send them an email

Senior developers of nairaland, what certification would you advise a junior developer to get in order to stand out. Would you advise someone to get into salesforce CRM or learn and acquire AWS certifications.

splendorian:

Mercychen:
Was bored. Couldn't cook because of the busy week and series of church programs. So , I decided to solo out and relax.

First pic, my first meal of the year after which
I set out to have a stonecold ice cream. though the place was crowded. So,, I just settled for some photo shoot.
Thats me radiating the glory of God Almighty.

All IELTS care about is your money, somebody have proof of English and a degree in English and you still want to test his English? Even tho na you colonize am. England has always been the problem of everyone. Imagine how much they make from these exams? They can’t drop Nigeria from excluded country list cos they know they will lose money. Fraudulent lots!

EmmanuelAndrews:
You said it all. From 30 too 40 of that passage. No time. They knew what they did. The passage was extremely long... No time what so over...

MzQuadrey:

His platform can only work if it has enough users. Why can't he use Parler or gab?

The Democrat party is to be blame, they instill those victim mentality on them just to get their vote.

They tried it on the Latinos but it failed because Latinos were more mentally wiser.

OgogoroDegree:
Hello bro
Can you help with links to download videos for self study.
And recommended some ebooks.

Thanks

EvilSec:
I wasn't hired because of a degree or certs. I taught myself hacking, made a free page to post about it, which eventually got me noticed. I even got offered a job by GCHQ after submitting a CV which consisted only of blog posts.
If you can't afford hundreds of naira for certs, don't let people convince you it's the only way. Certs are a way to prove you know at least something, but there are many ways to do that.
