Hi Everyone.

Please i will like to seek your opinion , With the ongoing challenge regarding the proposed immigration policy,

Is now a good time for an immigrant currently on a Skilled work visa to consider buying a house (Prior to the release of the white paper, We had indicated interest in buying a house, our offer has been accepted and we have started the mortgage application process.

After the white paper release, I have started developing cold feet and reconsidering my deceision ,

What would you advise>

Thank you.

Good afternoon all, my mortgage broker got secured a mortgage with me from HSBC and I’m surprised because I’ve never heard anyone mention them here, it’s mostly Barclays. We are currently on a post study visa and they got us a rate of 4.44%. Is it okay to go with them or is it possible that they’re missing something?

Also Lincoln university

Hi everyone,

Thank you so much to everyone who offered advice in December! Your help was invaluable in getting my Certificate of Sponsorship (COS) from my line manager in mid-January.

Moving forward, I have some questions about proof of English for my Skilled Worker Visa application as a software developer. While I've requested a letter of English proficiency from my university, I'm concerned about the turnaround time. Additionally, I haven't been able to find any upcoming IELTS UKVI test dates near me.

With that in mind, I have two questions:

1. Can I use the IELTS UKVI Academic test to meet the English language requirement for my Skilled Worker Visa application?
2. Are there any alternative English language tests accepted for Skilled Worker Visa applications that might have shorter waiting times for appointments?

Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciated!

Don't waste your time applying for Ecctis without the complete requirements. You must include your transcript, at least a stamped & signed student copy, if they still accept this copy.

Who is on Octopus and willing to give me a referral code?

If you are open to other options (Nigeria)

You can buy the FGN savings Bond. You can buy from most banks I believe.

====== Info =====
Interest Payment: Payable quarterly

Redemption : Bullet repayment on the maturity date

Effective yield :
2yrs - 10.706%
3yrs - 11.789%

========

This is government bond so you are guaranteed of your returns and capital at the end. Quite short. Exchange rate is good now. You can change now. Also you can be keeping your pounds for whenever the rate goes up and just throw it in.

Anything federal government bond is guaranteed. No story. Atleast from my knowledge for so many years.

Reminds of that Radio Show on Star FM 101.5FM by Funmilola Aofiyebi (not sure of the spelling ).

Abi na you?

AlphaUno:
‘absolute discretion of the company’
That sounds way too much and creepy.
They can come up with anything just to get rid of you

koonbey:
You can't do the other job during your work hours, which is typically Monday - Friday 9 - 5 or whatever you configuration is stated in your contract.

You can do it on the weekends as you plan but only if you're sure it won't affect your performance or ability to discharge your duties at your main job.

Just bear in mind that should any issues arise as to your performance and the company is or becomes aware you had a second job, they'd be able to say you breached your contract regardless of how true it might be, because the contract gives them discretion.

Viruses:
If your stay is up to a year, get argos card and spread the payment. If not, try PayPal pay-in-3 or klana pay in three.

mimilyrics:
Resubmit the application and include your daughter. Alternatively, you can write a cover letter to correct this error but I'd say it is better to do a fresh application for your own peace of mind.
However you do it, your daughter has to be declared to prevent stories that touch.

Zodka:
The site billed me in dollars. 474 usd for application and 921.18 usd for IHS.
