Travel / Nurses In Atlanta, Texas, New Jersey by shndy: 6:27am On Apr 27
Hello, I need information about these states. I have an opportunity of moving to one of them. I've gathered some information from Google but first hand info from nurses who is living or have lived there would be appreciated.

For example, what's the hourly rate for RNs, staff and agency wise.
Cost of living
Best School zone
Nursing home vs hospital, which pays better?

TIA

It's tricky. If the apartment is a shared one, be sure your landlord will find out at some point. If it is a flat or house and you dont have nosy neighbours that give the landlord info, then your landlord may not find out. Please note however that most landlords carry out inspection but they need to give you 24hrs notice for such. I don't think your husband visiting should be an issue however your son might be because some apartments don't allow children. I learnt a law is in the works to stop this.

Your conscience probably knows what the right thing is but I think you are fighting it because of some people's advice. I had a similar advice when I was house hunting but I just ignored to have rest of mind. I agree tho that giving detailed information here can come at a cost.

What do you mean by status expiring?
Thanks for your reply. The letting agent is aware of my son coming over. I mentioned that numerous times and filled it in during reference check.

By status, I meant my visa status

Hello everyone. Please I need advice. My husband and son will be joining me here by next month. I'm about signing a tenancy agreement which stipulate that no other person should reside or occupy the premises without the landlords consent. My husband has no plan of staying, he'll just visit periodically. My son stays.

Some friends told me it doesn't matter as the landlord/agent can't know. And so far they are my immediate family.

Do I need to point this out or not?

Furthermore my status expires may 2023, (with plans to renew tho). Tenancy agreement is 12 months and will end on July 2023. Will this be an issue too?

Thanks in advance

A big thank you to this forum for all the info,
Congratulations!!. Please how many months in advance of your intended travel date did you apply? How were you able to get a close interview date?

"Evidence that your sponsor are not, or will not be, in breach of UK immigration laws at the time of decision or the visitor’s entry to the UK".

What evidence is this please? My sponsor is a British citizen, will the passport be enough evidence?

Update for intending ethopian airline passengers .... Ethiopian airline will be added to the uk red list on Friday.

Flight tickets have been cancelled unfortunately.

Does anyone know if there would be a refund??

I guess in these times the safest options are direct flights.
Wow. I just pray naija won't join this red list o. If u bought directly from Ethiopia, u should be able to get a refund.

Good Morning NL,

MY UK POE EXPERIENCE.

Journey was ok and smooth from lag to addis to heathrow.

we were all lined up observing social distancing @ heathrow at d passport control.

I was asked these question when it reaches our turn

(1) London is on lockdown why coming now?
- this is the most important question n i spent several minutes explaining, she pursed briefly maybe to confirm what i said about my host on her system.
cos i mentioned its bn 10years we've seen our host and and i told her ds is our 2nd visit visa d 1st expired and we dont want this to expire.

some other personal explanations follow.
*one just need to be composed and truthful*

(2) who are you coming to meet in london?

(3) how is dt person related to you?

(4) the job of our host?

(5) are you working in nigeria? - i just said YES

(6) asked my wife only her job in nigeria?

The POE person collected nd scan through:
(1) Pasports
(2) passanger locator form
(3) covid result from nigeria
(4) £210 receipt
(5) return ticket

*cold dey ooooo
Congrats. Return ticket is a must?

I think another way to access the tfl portal for upload is if you log out of ur gov account and log back in . Since payment has been made already u shud see something like upload supporting documents.

Also check ur spam because after payment yu shud have received an email that prompts you to upload i think.
Honestly don't know what the problem is. I've signed out from ukvi and tls. Still no link

No real difference - the important thing is the handling.
Also remember that Ghana-must-go bags can tear, so if using those, tell her to consider getting them wrapped in nylon at the airport before checking them in.
Very good suggestion. Let her wrap it after weighing. I use ghana must go most times when my loads are ..., they can save as much as 3-4kgs. Ethiopia airlines are more lenient than most airlines when it comes to load.

as long as u want assisted service at the centre even if u click submit, the TLS people will be able to un-submit it from their end and add other documents as long as u pay your 11,700
No matter how many pages the document is, the price still 11,700?

great. thank you.

also if we managed to upload some of the documents by ourselves, should we click submit documents or not, since we will still do upload with the rest of the documents at the site?

thanks

HI, please how were you able to upload your docs online?. I chose self service. I've booked an appointment but I didn't get a link on how to upload my documents.

Our experienced nurses in the house, I have a question. Sorry if it sounds dumb grin . I already have my ATT, still trying to decide which country to travel to, to write it. Since Biden lifted the ban, I'm thinking of getting a US tourist visa, get in , write my nclex and job hunt. My question is, how easy is it getting an employer directly without using all those recruitment agencies?

But seriously, the information is there on their site.
For visitor visa/short term stay, check: https://liftassets.vfsglobal.com/nga/en/zaf/-/media/project/vfs_uk/shared/pdf/sa-nga/short-term-visa-application-form.pdf?la=en&hash=FD044F17434C357198E5C231C2A0A5725A609E45.

Go to any responsible state/teaching hospital for your yellow fever or you get it from from those guys outside VFS office.
Bank account depends on how long you are staying but you should target a minimum of R8,500 per month
People have already written on flight /hotel booking.

I guess you are a student?
Then you need to read or search previous posts.
I got my yellow fever card in 2016 at port health authority. I was told it's valid for 10years. Can I still use this, or do I apply for a new one?
TIA
