Unfortunately, we seem to be deficit in all facets, regardless of domiciled location.

If the passport is required, the applicant simply has no choice. They know this little fact, and simply don't give a DAMN .........

I believe they have resumed posting out passports. When I went back to collect mine in March, they were accepting prepaid postage envelopes and I think it's on the website as well.

My elders I greet you, your boy needs your experienced counsel.
I'm on a Tier 2 visa, I'm aware I'm allowed to do extra jobs, or so I believe. So an opportunity to earn some extra cash with my spare time has propped up. I can't remember, but I think I've read somewhere that if I have to take up additional jobs then I have to inform my current employer/sponsor, don't remember where I read this.
The issue now is that those that want to connect me with the extra job are advising me not to mention it to my line manager, they say I won't get into any trouble as I'm not doing anything illegal. They say informing my line manager will only make them start looking for faults which they can blame on the fatigue resulting from overworking myself.
What's your take guys? I'm tempted by the extra cash, but not too comfortable with informing my line manager, but I want to be sure I won't get into any trouble if I don't inform my line manager.

I believe you don't need to. And even if you do, they won't take it personal it's not a big deal and as long it doesn't affect you showing up on time to work

how long have you worked with your current employer? less than a year or more?

are you still on probation or have you been confirmed?

have you done any quarterly or yearly performance reviews? what has the feedback been?

you are on a tier 2 visa - piss off your sponsor (employer) and they can very easily get rid of you.

rather than taking up another job elsewhere, why not speak to your manager and see if you can work overtime/longer hours.

the last thing you want is them blaming any dip in performance or errors to your additional job

If you are a medical doctor and you have financial backup like you say, then go for PLAB route instead of the whole masters and working as a phlebotomist plan

You are right but don't think it's that difficult as doctors working with different Locum agency and timetable isn't usually fixed or is oga sutelk not a Doctor?
