Honestly, I don't understand this tier visa system...... And I have refused to read up on it.......

Bad idea, to start with..he can't work full time during term time and the company will not even take him on that.

Let him speak to the company about his situation, ask them to allow him take up the employment after graduation.

He will be breaking his student visa rule if he takes up this employment while still on student visa

I'm surprised though that the company is even willing to employ him while still on student visa..maybe he did not give the company all the info.

Let him do things the proper way to avoid regret pretty soon.

Thanks. Do you have any links to where this rule is please? I'd like to send him to go through the official docs.

kode12:



Thank you. Can I get the official documentation please, because this seems to follow my initial thoughts of not being able to switch visas even with a sponsor until 3months to the end of the program.

Good day everyone.
Pls I am back again.
Noticed there is a landline socket already in my apartment probably installed by the last tenant for BT, I have rang BT and they say they will have to re-set up the landline connection which will cost something like 70 pounds but they will waive it off when they are doing the broadband. This is just paraphrasing.
Pls what is the reason for landline and hope I won’t get bills sent to me for landline because I dnt think I would use it. Also is there anything else I need to know about this?
Thank you in advance.

These are words on marble, and I’ve got nothing but respect for you.
With cautious optimism, having a solid plan, and of course God’s favour, I believe most will make a success of the opportunity. Nigeria is already hard for the common man, I trust they will survive here, if they keep their eyes on the ball.
Thanks for sharing. Cheers

Hello, please I need help. Came in to the Uk September with my family. Either myself or hubby wants to start driving ASAP..especially cause of school runs and moving about as a family. We came with international drivers license and we have a car to use but which insurance would you recommend that is flexible and more pocket friendly. Hoping to learn from your experience please. At least we can drive till license expires then do a few paid lessons later and test. Please advise. Thank you

Guys what are the possible scenarios that one can use to achieve this 10yrs long residency thing. Let’s assume the person is starting with a Student visa (undergraduate)....

No insults pls and I hope justwise won’t take down my post because this has nothing to do with cheating a system or being fraudulent.

Do 2 years Masters
Get 2 years post study visa.
This is legit 4 years...


On your 2rd year of post study visa, you apply for another. If it's Master's, you have 2 years for study plus another two years... Post study visa.

If you decide to do PhD, you will have 3 years post study visa instead of 2.

This will be running into legit 8 to 9 years

You might want to get married and be your wife's dependant.

If you arrived in September you might want to get a provisional licence soonish and start planning towards getting the full one - the theory tests are all booked up till May 2021 already.

brine:


I think it depends on the test center. Where I am, there are available slots from Feb.

LagosismyHome:


It doesnt for 5 years pathway but does for 10 years pathway.

For 10 years settlement pathway all time spent in UK Counts

I read here that once you has post study you had it for life ..... that the second master or phd wont come with post study.

Not sure how accurate that is because I havent officially gone to read the guidelines but I remember seeing that comment on the student thread
