Which one is work visa? Or you mean Job seeker visa?

For work visa, you need to get a work in portugal first before you can apply for work visa.

Job seeker visa is not cheap also. You need a health insurance that is worth 30,000 euros for you to apply.

I wonder how they think a job seeker will raise 30k euros. If I have that amount, wetin I dey find go Portugal.
You don't need 30k euros all you need is to sign up to a health insurance scheme in the country and the health insurance cover Should be 30k euros. As a young person who doesn't smoke you can get good health insurance plan of 25 euros a month and they will guarantee a cover of 30k euros or even more

Work is better... it's pretty hard to get
Study is good... it's pretty easy to get

Work is better... fastest way to Permanent residency
Study is good ... buy you hav to find a job after Study or you return back to ur country

Wow, your case is really a difficult one. You shouldn't have given him such a huge amount of money upfront. That was how an agent requested I should pay 1.7m upfront for a job visa sponsorship, and wasn't willing to open up to me about the whole process. I had to ditch them, started looking up for info here on Nairaland and YouTube, luckily I got a lot of reasonable info. I'm about to start the process doing it on my own. I'd hope more experienced people can respond to your question and tell you what to do.
That's great to hear, you can also be of help to many of us who wants to do the same as you did.

Advice get a work visa, student visa is limiting and funding living and educational expenses is not for the faint hearted and sometimes it doesn't tally up. The only good part is that you get a degree.
Which kain work visa… you be Soyinka or Stanley Nwabili with special skills? If not, student visa is ur easiest to get visa approved.

I've been in a dilemma for some time now, trying to choose which pathway I should use for my japa plan.

I would prefer to go with a study visa(to Portugal or Malta) as I'm more familiar with the process and can do everything myself without much help, and it's also easier to get the visa.

My problem with it is that it's quite expensive, and it will take some time for me to start doing full-time work to save tangible funds and cover up the sources I used in getting the japa capital.

On the other hand, a work visa looks great, but I'm not familiar with the process (I will most likely seek assistance from travel agents I know in person), I don't know the possibility of getting a good job within the time-frame the visa will last.

With study, I'll have to target countries with favorable PR requirements, but with a work visa, I will go for any good one without considering much about PR possibilities.

My major motivation is financial, please which one should I go for

How legit is work visa, looking for jobs on arrival. I need your opinions. Thanks in advance.
Work visa has higher priority. You only think of study if u cant get work. Infact, no work visa, don’t japa yet. Study visa na suffering if you dont have a financial sponsor. Especially in uk. Students just dey enter depression anyhow and schools failing people anyhow

You have no idea how things work. You need to find an EU employer who would employ and cover ur health insurance for you to be considred for work visa. Naija agents go dey lie to una say job full everwhere like u be Soyinka or Jay Jay Okocha.

I guess, to be worth 30k€ doesn’t mean you'd pay 30k for it; it means the policy should be able to cover incidents up to 30k€.
Exactly. Help me educate them. Anyway nobody knows it all.

Some agents can get you the job before you leave Naija but it is always expensive.

From what you wrote up there you don’t qualify for work visa dont let agents deceive you. Most beta countries give work visa to people with scarce skills like tech, nursing, doctors, accountants etc. not every tom dick and harry. For the hustler work visa like farm workers- many of them dont even have Nigeria on their list of countries . Even the ones that say you can come temporarily and come search for jobs they know Nigerians have bad record and economic instability at home they no even give you visa to enter. If work visa was easy most Nigerians wont go with study visa.

What is your occupation by the wayhuh
Work visa must not be in Tech or high professional jobs, as long as an eligible company can provide you employment with documents to support your visa application, you are good to go. I have friends who relocated with work visas and they are not into Tech, Nursing and the rest. BTW, I'm a Digital Marketer...!
