You need insurance as well, it’s 220 euro for 1G
You can get that on study and protect.

Thanks. 220? I thought it was 150

Thanks a lot.

I am currently on a stamp 2 and want to upgrade to 1G. Please what are the necessary documents? Do I still need to pay for insurance and the 300 euros?

Please advice. Thanks.

DammyDurst:
Hi, could you state the reasons why you'd advise that?

Simply put, jobs.

Coldie:

I got admission in LIT. How is Limerick.

What I have read on this Nairaland and on Quora about Ireland having high unemployment. Is making me rethink if I should go to the Uk

Currently schooling at LIT. Its a good school, but if you have the option of UK, you should take it.

olajimii:
If you've done your GNIB and PPS you can try registering with an agency. It's not sure banker money but it will at least pay the bills. All th3 best.

Thanks bro. I've registered with an agency. The issue is we have to do prayer and fasting for them to call us for work

Sophiesteve:


@slimtom1994 please can I message you? I have somewhat similar issue am in university of limerick as well.

Seems you sent a message. Can't seem to be able to read it though

olajimii:
Good day everyone. It's good to see the goods news of visa issued have started rolling in. To those that were denied, please appeal ASAP (cost of your first appeal is covered by the visa payment). I've been offline for a while, I had to Take time off to finish up my assignments and write my exams. Thank God first semester has ended, unto the next one. For those yet to arrive here is a list of stuffs i think would be helpful

1. First thing to buy when you land is a good jacket. I'll suggest you buy here since it's their weather and they know what needs to be done to keep you warm.
2. Hold enough money. Yes you'll get a job if you plan to, but it's not immediate. There are documentations you need to do before you can be allowed to work. Meanwhile you'll need money to run your daily life. It's no longer news that Dublin is expensive, you do not want to be stranded here. In my case it took two months before I started work (it's just a guideline, yours could be earlier or later)
3. Apply for your GNIB and PPS appointments ASAP
4. When you finally start working make sure you put your academics first. I see lots of people, especially Indians, miss classes because of work. They tend to struggle during the course and end up with bad grades, except you're a genius sha. Bad grades leads to difficulty in getting a good job after. Studies first.
5. When you resume classes pay attention. Trust me the attention you give in the first few classes will determine how well you'll be settled in the course. It would help you get a good understanding of what the course is about. Trust me, you need this
6. Try to come with plenty food stuffs. Like I said, Ireland is expensive especially Dublin. You do not want to add eating out to your bills. If you don't know how to cook, learn now. Lol
7. Houses are expensive but are available. Contrary to the popular believe that houses are difficult to find, they are not. You only need to look at the right places. I agree it may be difficult for first timers though. In the mean time, you can book a temporary accommodation like an hostel while you search for something permanent.
8. Ask questions. There are loads if stuffs that can make your life easier but you would not know unless you ask. Don't be shy, they say "who ask direction for road no dey miss road".

If any other thing comes to mind I'll had it. I wish everybody a safe trip and best of luck to the ones still expecting the good news . Cheers

Mehn, that number two needs to be louded. I have been in Limerick for four months now and I am still looking for work. Me that I thought immediately i get here, I will start working

Thanks in anticipation of your response.

Henrykingiv:
I wonder what could be the issue here. Still hoping for the best for us all.

It takes 8 weeks to process

Lawiiiii:
Funny enough, the immigration officers don’t have your time. I wasn’t asked any questions tbh. All I had to do was show my Passport and offer letter.
As for the accommodation in Limerick, I don’t have any information as regards that but I’d suggest you book a hostel or bnb close to your school for the meantime or send a mail to your school. They should be able to fix you up with something temporary.
Don’t be afraid, your phone will work here. All you need do is get an Irish sim (which is usually free) and dump that Stupid Glo/Mtn/Airtel network.

Thanks a lot. You have been super helpful

Greetings to you all.

I recently got my visa to study at LIT and orientation started today. There are 2 forms I am supposed to submit, but I haven't submitted them yet because I haven't traveled due to this accommodation issue. It is quite expensive over there at Limerick.

My questions are as follows.

For those of you that have traveled, what questions were you asked by the immigration officer, and what documents did you provide?

Also, does anyone know where i can get cheap dorms in limerick?

How do I know if the phone i use in Nigeria here is 'unlocked for ireland use'

These are all for now. I have found the comments on this page quite helpful.

Thanks in advance for answering my questions

Please who knows if change of course form for this incoming session is out?

Please I need a measuring scale for drug abuse. Anyone who can help will be highly appreciated. Thanks

I heard pg exam is starting next week. Is that true?

Greetings all. Please I have a dilemma. I have a third class degree and I want to go to Canada for a study and work program. The only courses I see that I am eligible for are certificate courses that are like 8 months long. Would I be able to get visa for 8 months course? What's the likelihood that I will be able to remain once the program is completed? Does it pay to go to Canada or Ireland?
.
Please your response will be highly appreciated. Thanks.
