Greetings. I did my biometrics for a work visa on the 16th of June, I have not received any email from home office. I tracked my application and it's still at the decision making center. I am worried.

Goodly1:

So you still want your wife to be doing care job while she's heavily pregnant or nursing your own child, while you enjoy yourself as her dependant?!😱🙄 I can't believe this!!!😡

@Goodly, i think you are talking out of emotion and of which reality set in immediately u land in YouKay, these Sponsor dont have any job especially for people staying in london. The extra 20hrs for MA is even hardly to find. Dependant still get High hopes pass any other.
On these note, the best advise is for the pregnant woman to be the MA and husband dependant so he can do mutiple hustle. talking out of my current experience

Thanks for your response. I have been trying to get a travel itinerary online since yesterday because one travel agent said it is needed. I think I can now proceed with visa application without travel itinerary...

Please explain better sir from your experience
The disadvantage and advantages of using her as the main applicant instead of myself
The employer will simply tell you that she will not be able to fulfill the requirements of the visa, she might be made redundant (low key) because she cant work. Some employers might decide not to give her contract letter or reference you for your rent. They will feel she deceived them by not disclosing the pregnancy and when they dont reference you for accommodation, u will be up for some serious issues. Just make sure u have a lot of money for Airbnb and get ready for whatever the outcome might be. They might not withdraw the COS but the ripples effect might be unbearable especially when she is near her due date, going to hospital etc post delivery wahala with health visitors and im sure you wouldn't want to give them the impression that u are in an Airbnb with the baby. Its better you are the COS bearer than your pregnant wife. If your wife is the CoS bearer, remember u must dance to her tone of work FIRST before u pick up ur own job. But there is a trick, if she comes in, and the employer luckily gives her contract and reference her for rent which they will be reluctant to do if they didn't give her contract, she can take a leave immediately while u work ur ass off but. Some will even sence that u will take a leave and wont give u contract yet, some might give u contract and during tenancy referencing they might disclose that you haven't worked yet and disclose you are on leave for so so so months which may give a negative impression to the referencing company. Someone said most London employers dont have work, how sure are you? U cant assume that, if you are the CoS bearer and your employer doesn't have work, u find another supplementary job afterall the 20hr limit has been temporarily lifted. If your wife is pregnant and CoS bearer, u MUST dance to the tone of her employer before taking up ur own job and the employer might low key decide to frustrate you because of non disclosure of the pregnancy and getting another employer for CoS immediately is near impossible with her belle. While ur waiting for the employer to act positive towards ur pregnant wife, U will be laced with so many uncertainties.

Thank you so much for this, you just made me realize lot of things.. with this now, i can make the right decision.. it’s better she deliver in Nigeria here even before processing the cos, or i should just be the main applicant

There are so many things that will determine your decision. The best solution is u taking up the CoS coming over to hustle and let her give birth in Nigeria then join u when she can (safest, cheapest and easiest way). Anyone in the UK will tell u this.
Good luck

My COS has Tier/Category as Skilled Worker Visa but the job title is Health Care Assistant.
Now moving forward to visa application, do I apply under the skilled work visa or Health And Care work visa

Bearing in mind that HCW visa applicants don't pay IHS while Skilled work visa applicants do

No, you can be married and not change your name on your passport. I have friends who have applied and are in the UK now with their wives making use of their maiden name on passport because of the rigours of going to Abuja to change name on their passport. So you're good to go

I know someone who has been applying to NHS organisations for care roles as well but has not been successful despite having 2 interviews so far. The recruiters simply claim the Band she's applying for (Band 4) is not high enough to warrant sponsorship from abroad (which is a lie). Some use the Red-list excuse. What I always advise her to do is to keep applying. All the setbacks won't matter when you get one 'Congratulations' email.

What you can do is to keep proof-reading your CV and supporting information. Make it as comprehensive and grammatical error-free as possible. Joy is coming soon.

In addition, Care roles are not the only jobs available in the UK. Check for other roles that you may be qualified for, you may just be surprised at what you will find.

I hope this helps

Thank you very much for this boss

Hello,
Wife already in the UK on Health care visa since last year December.

Maintenance ticked Yes on her COS by the employer then.

Is her dependant husband required to provide another proof of fund in this situation or exempted if he is applying now?

Your reply will help a lot.

Thanks

Thanks for the response. I'm just confused because the immigration officer doing my baby's passport said my surname on my passport has to align with my surname on my baby's birth certificate. I bear my husband's surname on my baby's birth certificate.
