European Parliament Parliament has endorsed the creation of an EU Talent Pool platform. This will facilitate recruitment of people from outside of the EU to work in member states and will be open to voluntary participation by member states.

My people in the UK, Please I want to ask a question from people here, and I will appreciate responses from people's experiences. My place of work promised to give me a care COS soon, but the code is 6135 which does not allow for dependant. I have my wife and a child, I heard that people use immigration lawyer to apply for their dependant. Please how true and successful is the use of immigration lawyer for this Please I need response and advice |

Juwon21:Your COS code does not allow sponsorship, i don't think any immigration lawyer can wiggle any room..... Your option might be visiting visa(which is a slight consolation and expensive) or once they arrive, they raise their hands (hopefully you would have a reason to file a successful application)...... On the alternative, hunt down Eni Ojah or Sir CTM on Tiktok, and ask your questions on one of their live sessions...... |

This is most ridiculous answer from a Rep from the (Home Office) at the today’s Home Affairs Committee Session. Q: Where do you get data that Immigrants before and after ILR access benefits? (Which is their major fear of the boriswave migrant getting ILR) A: it doesn’t need data 😂 Q: Then on what basis is the government making decisions of the future when they have no data of the past and present? A: stammers 😂 Now I see how the court would win against this clueless set of leaders. You can watch the video via this instagram link https://www.instagram.com/reel/DVwGn_bDT7p/?igsh=MTJzNXFvaXdpZzdtYw== Or search the Migrant Channel on it. |

Juwon21:Many people who already in the uk with children are getting dependant visa even if the job does not allow dependant. Involve a good solicitor from the beginning. They will apply visa for the dependant based on family or human right not as dependant of skilled worker. If you dont try you dont win |

Goke7:You are so right. Shabana already done a good job that labour can use to campaign by bringing down the net migration. All she needs to do is continue to point accused fingers on conservatives for bringing in lots of migrations to the country without trying to do anything to affect those migrants brought in by conservatives. That way she the party will be popular among immigrants and citizens but now reverse is the case. Their citizens dont want them neither do immigrants wants them as well |

abuhusna1:Citizens want more especially when the other party is offering way more ![]() |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Goke7: 9:55am On Mar 12 |
Lexusgs430:From the way the question was asked, it looks like the family is in the UK, the op may want to clarify that though! |

AgentXxx:e go stammer tire after all we have starmer as PM, so why will he not stammer? That's always the outcome of the politics of populism and bigotry, no data or principles to back it up. It's like Trump and his gang who continue to struggle daily to justify the attack or invasion on Iran ![]() |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Goke7: 10:21am On Mar 12 |
HustlaOfLagos:What the citizens or locals actually want (drive every person that don’t look like them irrespective of status out of the uk) is impossible by any govt. No party can offer that no matter their campaign slogan. They promised so much more during the Brexit campaign but got nothing that looked like it. They can wave all manner of flags at the end even prison and police workers dem no get! |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by HustlaOfLagos: 10:43am On Mar 12 |
Goke7:They obviously do not care as long as people are driven away It is the political class that has to make sensible, informed decisions to guide all but even them seem to not know what they are doing / what they want ![]() |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Goke7: 11:14am On Mar 12 |
HustlaOfLagos:The political class is totally confused on one hand they know the economic damage they are going to cause and on another hand they want to please the people so what they continue do is to pass the buck to successive governments while successive governments will continue to blame the previous governments! No one wan put their head |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Zahra29: 11:25am On Mar 12 |
HustlaOfLagos:The govt has been very clear on what they want and why - from the White Paper, consultation, debates, numerous statements, even X posts etc How much clearer do you want them to be lol |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by HustlaOfLagos: 12:11pm On Mar 12 |
Zahra29:On one hand, you claim you want talents and care workers are essential workers.. on the other hand, they are low skilled, do not contribute and you make pathways for those talented folks harder... sounds like incoherence and confusion to me They should just implement everything and get it over with. It does not seem like they want to make any changes & everything is starting to look like they are whinning everybody ![]() |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by HustlaOfLagos: 12:16pm On Mar 12 |
Goke7:Isn't that what they are doing with the benefit system too ![]() Negative net migration coming soon, I am sure there is a way they can present this to make a case for the people who will be settled soon. I doubt they will though as it seems they are hellbent on closing those gates so the boriswave folk won't claim benefits I wonder why they have refused to point out what those people do and try to restrict them to "low skilled" people, parroted by the likes of Kemi Badenoch. The care sector also seems to have lots of vacancies at the moment and I know it will go up even more within the next 1 - 2 years Interesting months ahead |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Goke7: 12:37pm On Mar 12 |
HustlaOfLagos:It’s nonsensical classifying those who look after elderly and vulnerable people low skilled, bottom wipers and not adding value to society. Indirectly you’re shaming the elderly and vulnerable all on the altar of politics! Terrible. I still think the real fear is the exit of carers from the sector after getting ilr and opening the doors again will make them look stupid! |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Lexusgs430: 12:55pm On Mar 12 |
Goke7:With the way immigration laws are changing, its difficult to know what side of the law is right......... That's why i suggested seeking proper advice from immigration lawyers........ |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by Zahra29: 12:59pm On Mar 12 |
HustlaOfLagos:- They do want talent, which is why they've accelerated the ILR route for GTV holders etc and those on the top rate of tax. How have they made these pathways harder? - It is perfectly possible to be both an essential and low paid worker. Many roles are essential but do not pay very much e.g. Bin collectors, nursing So-called low skilled because formal qualifications and prior experience is not required. - lol if you think they are going through all this just to "whine" people, especially when they're having to face off against a lot of opposition from unions, migrant groups and some of their own MPs. They have started implementing some earned settlement policies e.g the 20yr route for refugees, B2 English requirement for settlement applications from March 2027. In recent interviews, Shabana has hinted that further measures will be rolled out/announced in the autumn. |

Zahra29:- They do want talent, which is why they've accelerated the ILR route for GTV holders etc and those on the top rate of tax. How have they made these pathways harder? Are you sure you checked the new rules per GTV especially for designers? The GTV itself is based on discretion and there is no guarantee highly skilled with good profiles and portfolio get it. Again, this is factual & based on conversations with at least 6 people I know who have applied. In one instance, the person re-applied with the exact same profile after a rejection, did not change a thing & got it. - It is perfectly possible to be both an essential and low paid worker. Many roles are essential but do not pay very much e.g. Bin collectors, nursing Herein lies the problem, it should not be the case. You can not compare being a bin collector with working in hospice - both essential but one deals with the lives of real people. Have you ever tried to be a care worker? I am not talking about working in supported living / as a support worker. Actual care / dom care? These are very, very essential workers & their work should be triple the pay at least... I know because I tried it as a student & had to run away after just 4 hours.. That they are essential workers & being low paid is a structural problem and not the fault of those workers. HCAs & nurses are well paid in the US/AU and not the UK for some reason. The debates absolve the system of these faults and passes the buck to those workers who are "victims" of the same government - the same government that opened up those slots, collected app fees, confirmed the COS, issued visas to them, clapped for them during covid & now want to discard them. - lol if you think they are going through all this just to "whine" people, especially when they're having to face off against a lot of opposition from unions, migrant groups and some of their own MPs. What I meant by whining is that they are dangling the carrot in front of everyone with the "consultations" which we know will not change a thing. They are better off implementing what they want to implement so employers and all can adjust and plan accordingly. They need to implement and get it over with. Serenren & shalaye don too much |
| Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by HustlaOfLagos: 1:21pm On Mar 12 |
Goke7:Exactly. The whole scenario is weird. What if most of those care workers head to Canada / US if new pathways open there? Canada / US will be more likely to fulfil their initial promise and not shift goal posts after the specified period to get settlement There is no guarantee that the goalpost won't shift with the UK again in 10 years & its a bad look on the gov I need the policy to come in place already so everyone can work on alternate plans |

HustlaOfLagos:>>> I [i]meant by [i]whining [/i]is that they are dangling the carrot in front of everyone with the "consultations" which we know will not change a thing. They are better off implementing what they want to implement so employers and all can adjust and plan accordingly. Ah ok, I misunderstood what you meant. I agree that the waiting and uncertainty is very challenging for many so they need to move as quickly as possible, but I suppose they want to be careful to get it right and I do think that they are carefully considering the consultation responses and working out appropriate transitional protections and other measures. >>>These are very, very essential workers & their work should be triple the pay at least. I completely agree and I've been saying this for ages. MAC advised the government to look at improving pay and conditions in social care to attract more of the citizen workforce. Instead Boris responded to the lobbying of the care industry and other business sectors and opened up visa routes to bring in foreign workers willing to do the work for minimum pay. The reason care work is being scapegoated is due to the massive, disproportionate levels of abuse and fraud in that sector which ultimately led to and symbolised the "Boriswave" problem that the government says it inherited and now has the responsibility to fix. Other immigration routes are also being caught up in the proposed changes such as 10year LR, adult private life and others. Interesting fact - Mike Tapp ( Shabana's Home Office minister who is a key figure in these reforms) disclosed that his mum was a care worker and so he knows all too well how challenging the role is. |
