Anyone living in Stoke-on-Trent or studying in Staffordshire University? Please I will need your advice regarding the school and the city. Have been getting so many not-so-good feedbacks about the city. I got unconditional offer to Staffordshire University and I'm contemplating living in a neighbouring town. |

Kikspie: They are just being smart by half with that probationary excuse after knocking off their initial excuse of earning criteria. NOTE Provide evidence that your hubby won’t be on probation when he resumes, they will still come up with something else All they want is 6 months upfront Alternatively, look elsewhere to rent since you now have a rent history Should you go ahead with the referencing, dem go ‘chop’ your money (holding fee) when you fail referencing Yes, they do rent guarantor and it’s totally legal. Google will be a good guide should you decide to rent one |

kode12: Such individuals are only feeding their greedy appetite when they pay such money. The individual was not properly advised or just acting like a ‘money-miss-Road’. No insult intended please. In some areas, that’s mortgage deposit faa!! 2 Likes 1 Share |

Omoluv5: They already have their visas issued so I don’t see any issue except at the POE (point of entry) where you might be required to access maintenance fund directly on your mobile banking app. So, any of the parent’s account should do since you guys both wrote UKVI a financial consent letter. |

Regular embassy customer cum travellers know that experiences ‘yapa’ in visa processes. Better be prepared than not The burden of proof is on the potential visa applicant. In other words, you are required to prove your case with all what you ve got In this day n age of fake documents, providing or not providing all document evidence isn’t a guarantee for a visa but better to provide than not provide to save yourself the stress, financial and time costs involved in the process. with the negative reputations 9ja has garnered over the years, we have been conditioned to go the extra mile to prove our cases - reason they treat the green pali differently @ airports - 1 Like 1 Share |

AlphaUno:Holding fee ke? If I have paid the rent, the house is mine for that period I paid for. Why pay holding fee for my house. Except after contract expiration the landlord refuse to collect the one month rent in which case they should keep staying till they get another place. Is it legal to just boot someone out after contract expiration if the person was will to continue on a monthly rolling basis? Will they tell the court that they are looking for 6 months upfront hence the quit notice? 1 Like |

I thought I should share my experience on "no recourse to public funds". I happen to be in the tech field with no much years of experience and decided to opt in for a bootcamp to brush up my skills as it offers internship after graduation. I went through the process and passed. However on offer, I was told that the bootcamp was sponsored by the "department of xxxxxx UK"... And since I was on student visa, I have no recourse to public funds which included this sponsorship by one of the govt. departments... Hence, would affect any other applications in the future. It made me to go back and had a good read about this public funds It thought me a lesson, in as much as I am looking to fit myself into the society, their rules are their rules and sometimes you unintentionally go against it like this one. We also want to ask as such questions as possible and be open as well. I still remain grateful to the lady that pointed it out to me because I would enrolled without knowing that I had gone against my visa rules. 13 Likes 1 Share |

hustla: In addition to Ticha’s detailed explanation, rental income from your UK property will be subject to income tax even if you are no longer resident in UK. You will need to do a yearly self assessment to cover this and if you do decide to sell it while still abroad, it will also be subject to CGT if the value has appreciated significantly. |

hustla: Irrespective of whether you live in the UK or not, any income received in the UK is subject to UK income tax, this includes property income. Please speak to an accountant regarding the non-resident landlord scheme if you wish to pursue this route. |

Peerielass: I will have to.. Cos it seems it'll be better to just sell off if that's ever the case with my Waka Thank you! |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Peerielass: 7:10pm On Oct 05, 2022 |
hustla: You can keep the property if it’s likely you will return to the UK after your various Waka. Otherwise it might be best to sell it before your departure. |

Viruses: The bolded is what will happen. And I’m sure they will still knock his referencing off with one excuse or the other. All in all, 6 months upfront is what they are after Imagine presenting a UK guarantor who’s a Citizen Home owner And a professional employed by a government agency And they still fault the referencing.
