Can someone please clarify if a UK resident non-EU spouse of an EU citizen must apply for visa to visit Spain. Prior to brexit, I travelled with my residence card. Can I exercise right of movement to enter Spain (with documents like a marriage certificate in addition to my passport) or apply for the visa? |

DrObum: Why would I send you my info? If you have a better way to get appointments why not say it here instead of posturing? We love to criticize, rather than proffer solutions. I don't know why you think I enjoyed spending that money because it's paining me till tomorrow. I searched high and low and the consensus was for me to pay or delay my process. Again, if you have better info kindly drop here 2 Likes |

jumpshot:You'll need to send details because their appointment requires passport details, demographic information and email address that they'll mail the appointment to. If you probably did the right thing, you'll know these. Even when sending IOM mails to help get an appointment, you'll send these details before they answer you. If not, they'll ignore the mails. 3 Likes |

evalovely: Hello guys, Can anyone help with the above please? I paid for the passport to be posted to my address . Can I show up at the home office for collection? I read on their website that entry to the office is only by appointment. |

jumpshot:My point is you should not complain that you paid bribe because I can bet that you didn't pay that bribe to an official account. So your complain is invalid. Just say you gave someone money to help you because you couldn't undergo the stress yourself. A valid complain should be that IOM should open more centers to accommodate the everly increasing number of travellers from Nigeria or grant license to other health facilities like CDC, NIMR to carry out the procedure for them. People will support this argument better. 3 Likes |

jumpshot: Yes. I am looking towards that option. Companies are already calling me for interviews for professional jobs but I cannot attend because even if I pass, I cannot work cos of childcare issues. I heard Canada and USA are much more better with this. There just has to be light at the end of the tunnel. |

erico2k2: This is not so. Everyone that is working in UK from the beginning of tax year April is taxed as soon as they enter , but if they come after the tax year has started, they may be tax free till the next tax year. After the tax year, you are refunded all if you earned below 12530, but all earnings above that threshold is taxed 20%. |

mamatwiny:Who on earth in employment gets taxed at 20% if not on BR??You have not said anything diff from the word NO TAX. or TAX FREE Your tax rate might be different from others so there is no one yard stick to measure what ones take home is relative to next door. Your tax depends on your Age Marital status, wages, these are used to derive your tax code and 20%. 20% are for those with no tax code or those who failed to submit their P45 to new employer |

erico2k2: Everybody gets taxed. That is why UK residents are notorious for not parting with money. If you are earning £20k per annum, £12570 (if it has not changed) is tax free, the remaining £7k+ is taxed at 20%. If you are earning £51k, £12,570 is tax free, £12,571 to £50,001 (not too sure on the exact amount) is 20%, 50,001 to 51k is 40%. Tax rate is different based on income bracket.

jadepinkett: What does this alleged parsimony on the part of UK residents have to do with tax? Everyone in developed countries pays tax, the other western European countries generally pay more as a percentage of their incomes. There was a time when the UK's economy was quite bad, in the late 70s and early 80s, before and after Thatcher started her reforms, and I think that that perception of stingy UK people came from the many Nigerians in the UK who moved here then who played upon that enduring myth of "things are bad in the UK" to plead poverty to relations. In the 80s interest rates were quite high, almost at Nigerian levels, for instance, and there was always the proverbial aunt pleading "I'm still paying my mortgage" and all that. 1 Like |
