Great! I'm also a structural engineer.

I don't know your level of experience, I don't know if you are already here in the UK and I don't know your circumstance. However, I can confirm to you that structural engineers are in HIGH demand across the UK.

Don't hesitate to revert should you need further information.

HaneefahRN:


Thank you. Can I send you a mail?

Mamatukwas:


Sis are you sure it’s true? He didn’t finish his degree? You know this country does not play with their money. I find it unlikely but who knows.

doveangel:
I am a registered nurse here in Nigeria. Please I would like to start working in the UK on a Health Care Skilled Worker visa. I just need an agency that would hire me and give me a certificate of sponsorship which I need to process the visa. Please any suggestions of agencies that would do this? It has to be for senior care as the visa specifies.
Please and thank you

Maturedhustler:


I thanked Ralphlauren, Mamatukwas, Chreze, Justwise and Dupyshoo for taking time out to respond to my question here. I have been away sorting out COVID-19 matter and looking for accommodation. No be come chop o

I am grateful. The response opened my eyes more and look ahead to prepare for what future holds.

If not that I earlier got a hint that it may not be possible for my older kids not to pay resident fees in university (although at a later stage of my student route), I wouldn’t have imagined the reality shock l would have experienced after all these struggles.

@Ralphlauren, I guess the case you cited, the boy completed the primary and secondary schools under no legal stay. The stay was perfected a year to finishing high school. Is that not the reason he was denied paying resident fee despite spending many years in UK?

My thought before now is if you’re legally resident (as a student/worker), you are a resident who can also benefit from what govt provides even if you have not achieve your ILR.

If ILR is required for this residency, then I need help/advise for best options I can progress with from here after getting below clarifications:

1. Can ILR be achieved with spending more time outside UK in a year? Considering the UK UNI cost, I am considering (difficult decision) returning my 2 older kids (15 & 16) to Nigeria to stay with their father (but visiting UK on holidays), complete secondary school in Nigeria and seek admission in Canada/US/Nigeria to save cost.
I just read also student must be 17/18 before starting UNI in Scotland/England. A-level studies /college for 2 yrs is required too.

you need to have less than 180 days in 1 year period I think

2. If 1 above can’t work, If both stay back to start UNI in UK, I want to know if residency can be reviewed/changed after achieving the ILR.

3. If I secure work before or immediately after completing my master program, can I switch my visa route and move from 10yrs ILR as student to 5yrs as worker.

yes

Looking forward to your informative response and candid advice. Thanks

Not easy yes but it can be done
We got a two bedroom apartment before we left Nigeria. Got it on a Facebook page for the students of the university I'm attending. Only paid deposit and one month's rent and entered straight from airport. I guess we were very fortunate

Mr Interviewer, I should start analyzing what I used my money for to you because of what? I asked for a request and you are here questioning me like what ? Please keep your questions to yourself. Some people be acting like small god thinking people can’t afford to travel. I have seen your attacks here and how you look down on many.

Osoderi:
Good morning beautiful family. I am happy to be here, I am new in the UK . Thanks for all the advice and the comments, u guys rock.

Olinga:
Hehehe please my dear do what you have to do to move to the next level. Those that are asking these questions ask them if they came with trailer of money during their time.

People are coming here hustling it out without having all the money(why are we deceiving ourselves).

Even them talking their families are using the same method but you will come here and be forming KNOW ALL.

I used the same method I'm in my house come and ask me questions

At the end of the day you are not my GOD period#.

Student visa, hoping I could find a job...so I would be able to pay for feeding and transport after 1 month by God’s Grace.

Newbie123:


Thanks alot.

I really appreciate all the responses

mizGene:


He appears not to have money for his FIRST month rent and you are encouraging him?
Hustling is fine, but it must be done with sense.

I saw a post on Facebook.... an indian (not that the nationality matters) came here with student visa T4, he immediately hussled and got a care job and switched to T2 visa. I thought I seen it here that its not possible and you had to complete the school

But No, his T2 was approved this week. I didn't know that was possible so hey students shine your eyes ooo. This guy got his visa so he has switched from T4 to T2 without completing the degree

Justwise I don't intend to break any rules ooo but information is power hence why I am posting this

Any site for free accommodation ? Even if it is just for 1 month Biko, this situation is getting me pretty sad.
Or are there places one could get loan here in Nigeria before departure ? Please help me,e I am totally confused on what to do.

Aprokodaughter:


If you don't know they ask someone at POE for bank statement. You can go and check the gist on the UK student visa. Justwise is just helping you.

Nobody is looking down on you no be everything you go look as insult. Sometimes let's put this egotistical behavior down and learn. You will learn a lot. It can be your saving grace.

Lol, help indeed. Defensive midfielder

We Africans will deliberately not do the right thing to prepare and we will put everything on God's grace.

For God to carry you you have to stand up.
You can't pray for to get a job you haven't applied for.

3 months rents is the minimum money you need to enter this country if you plan to freestyle your way through life.

Good luck sha, we await your testimony

Aprokodaughter:


If I tell you word na you go dey form victim.

I don't know why you going to comment over old posts.

Logzzy:
I dare you. Honourable speaker

dupyshoo:
Under the new points based system for Skilled Workers, it is now possible for a Tier 4 General Student or Student to apply to switch into Skilled Worker visa from inside the UK even without completing a degree course.

Personally, I will advise you complete your degree if you can. However, If you can't pay your tuition, then it might be better to switch.

This care job is not easy o and not much money in it when you are being sponsored. Imagine working hours for a month to be given just about £1500.

justwise:
[/b]

Find out if that person switched before finishing his or her course, someone posted similar thing here before and i asked the same question but got no answer

justwise:


Bingo!! Here we go, this is what happens when you cheat yourself thinking that you are smart by using untouchable loan to get a visa

I will keep saying it and i couldn't give a rat backside what some of you think about me.

Don't come to the UK if you are not financially prepared, at least for the first 3months, by then you are familiar with few things and get a job to survive.

Ask those encouraging to go ahead with this perilous journey to accommodation for one night, just a night.

HopeLoveLife:

You are just a proud egoistic dude, honestly and it is boldly written all over you! Do you know my financial status? because many people worked their pof you assumed I did same too right ? Because I requested for loan you concluded I used an untouched loan? Please Abeg Abeg Abeg! You can keep your egoistic advice to yourself! Learn to talk to people right and there are better ways to pass a message without feeling like you are more than what you are! People are struggling and going through a lot, and you feel passing a message that way was the best? You think people are not aware of the struggles of leaving for a particular country without money and accommodation ? Check out how other people responded and learn from them.

hustla:



LOL

You jus dey pour frustration ontop who dey try help you

What is has said is no different from that which the other person said but I guess, pre-held vex
