Meanwhile, on today's episode of culture shock...

A few days ago,I got a call, a marketing call, dude sounded nice until he announced his product. . ..funeral plans!.....not life insurance ooo....funeral plans, For me and missus.........�......... I immediately remembered the conversation here on funerals, flying corpses back to Nigeria and cremation cost. I said missus has her life to live and her decisions to make.
I was in between shock and curiousness so I tagged along answering my preference would be cremation while laughing. Then he passed me on to a colleague for quotation! Colleague started marketing product like who was marketing Tura soap to sisi Allen Avenue. I said, wooolup! Hold it there! Guy continued pitching. I said I wasn't interested in the Convo again,he didnt stop oo, kept on talking, i politely said i wasn't interested at the moment. Next he said was.......''Best to Lock in the deal now because it would be more expensive when you are ready''! I dropped the call at once ���.........fillage pipo may summon me for even entertaining such discussion

Hello guys,
Please how do I know if someone is being overtaxed if there is anything like that? My husband earns a little over 2k in a month and get deduction of almost 600pounds. It's just outrageous and we dont know if he is being taxed correctly. Please help.

Oggg:
@tshobou thank you. Pls do you know anything about NIN doing?

Did they mention when you will get the passport?

tshoboy:
Update on this. I emailed support@innovate1services.com and they sent this link https://appointments.immigration.gov.ng/. I now have a Feb appointment. You might want to try this link if you have paid and waiting to be contacted. You might have to email them directly if the link doesn’t work for you.

Yemsot:
My journey so far in the UK. (Please pardon my long epistle. This is to encourage someone.)

PS
I have started applying for jobs with employers that have sponsor license.

daholiest:
Good morning please was it through email or phone text message, because am yet to get any feedback from them.
Thank you

canadaishome:
So no need for fast track then?

tshoboy:
Is there a contact number for the High commission?
I applied since October, when there were no appointing options and I yet to get an appointment email. Someone applied last week and said there is now an option to pick appointment dates and the person already attended biometric today. It was not fast track either.

mizGene:
Actually you are wrong. Based on that summary, she deserves to be struck off. Look at the last paragraph..
They claim she lacks insight, that means she has refused to take responsibility or even accept that she did anything wrong. If that is the case then, no way can they keep her on.
On the other hand, if she had admitted to making a mistake, that shows insight: that she understands she messed up. The next logical step would be that she accepts she is not up to par and she could be asked to take further training before continuing practice.

Something I saw online about a Nigerian nurse who had her licence withdrawn because she did not dial 999 but kept shouting Jesus when a baby under her care was having panic attack

I have a question. If an employer decides to sponsor you to the UK by giving u a COS and Tier 2 Visa.

What now happens when u decide to maybe study a course in the University in UK after some months.

Will you have to switch back to Students Visa where u only work 20hrs per week while u study or u just continue on the Tier 2 Visa where u can work unlimited?

Thank you.

No idea, but when I and my family travelled, I was the one that was thoroughly questioned at the immigration, they didn't pay attention much to my wife and child being my dependants. I suggest you all go together or you go first as the main applicant. You can sort the accommodation then they'll come join you.

By the way can't you people stay together in that place he's planning to stay alone first?

Chreze:
Cool bro. I was hoping we will get a crypto tread so that we don’t derail this as I don’t know if this is acceptable here. But I will just keep it brief and ask that I am permitted.

I use a site called (gate.io). It an exchange but has some features that makes it good for this type of daily trading.

There is a tab “Top Gainer”.

Good Afternoon guys..

Happy new year and thanks to all those keeping it real here with valid informations. Gracias!

I arrived here with my kids a girl and a boy and isolating with my inlaw at Feltham. My wife who is the principal applicant stays in Colchester and we are all looking forward to a great reunion but she tested positive and 2 others where she stayed. So I had to stay back in Feltham as I don't have any other place to stay. We need to inspect houses and make arrangements for the kids school.

Staying here in Feltham will not help us achieve much so I am thinking of I could see anyone willing to accommodate me for maybe a week while I do few inspections and secure our own house.

The kids are good at Feltham.

I will appreciate if I can get anyone to help.

Thanks.

I used KLM on my trip to Nigeria in November and one of the requirements per the checklist that they sent was that for anyone transiting had to get a transit visa. When we contacted them because it was silent on British passport holders, they said that it was not applicable to British passport holders and the likes but applicable to Nigerian passport holders and the likes.

Extract from NL website: If you are a Nigerian national travelling from Nigeria via the Netherlands to the UK, you can apply for an airport transit visa (ATV) at the Belgian embassy in Abuja or the French consulate in Lagos (both Member States representing the NL for Schengen visa in Nigeria). You are required to hold an ATV while transferring through the Netherlands

TheGuyFromHR:
You've both asked and answered your own question.

If:
a) you have a valid visa which entitles you to seek employment;
b) you have found employment;
c) the employer is prepared to employ you with your current immigration permission and has stated it is also prepared to provide you with the necessary means to change your status when that becomes necessary;
then
d) you should accept the employer's offer and commence employment as your visa allows you to do.

SirWellington:
Exactly, the new scheme which will kick off by early next year's will make it easier for care givers to swicth to tier 2. Read it will run for a 12 months period.

Joksyleo:
You are right, I also did same day at Ikeja (Priority) and I haven't gotten any collection mail. I heard priority was stopped as at then. We might likely get a refund.

kennykale:
My friend did on the 6th and got his passport with his visa on the 13th

Aprokodaughter:
This uk visa thing you can't predict them some will do standard and get their visa at the right time or even earlier. Some will do priority and get their visa early some will do this priority and get it anytime to extent the candidate will start doubting the priority they paid for.

The process is something else and it's based on each individual application.

STENON:
Am I the only one thinking priority is definitely going to be back on Monday ?

Amazoner01:
Biometrics 6th of dec (priority)
Collection mail : 14th mail.
Awaiting dependant application
Biometrics was done on 9th of dec(standard)
.

I asked a question about uploading wrong statement but got no response on here. While applying a wrong statement was mistakenly uploaded instead of the recent, tho the statement is genuine and still have its money intact, it wasn’t what we wanted to upload as we wanted to upload a statement that also include dependant maintenance. It was really worrisome cos I read on here an applicant that got denied cos dependant money wasn’t included in his pof even-though the dependant wasnt going with him immediately.. so I had to latee send a paid mail and also sent the recent statement to Sheffield team even though they didn’t request that from me on the 8th.I also called them on the 12th only to be told the decision was already made on the 9th.
Not sure if they got the mail or not...God is awesome.
Kindly double check your applications before submitting or uploading.

Mashaunola:
Please help!!!
Please help me!!

Biometrics was done on 25th November (priority application). Till now it’s still at DMC. I have sent 2 paid mail and made a call through to them. Their response was that a decision has NOT yet been made.

I asked if they need any supporting documents to process my application but they said NO. That they would have mailed me if they need anything.

Yesterday I sent another paid mail to them and I got this. Does it mean it will be worked on or what else do you advise I do.

Please help me!!!!
Please help me!!!

Thank you, but can one take Manchester because from Lagos to Birmingham flight is very expensive while Manchester is lesser. Birmingham is N639,000 while Manchester is 434,000. Kindly advise. Thank you

Geesucc:
Like I said, I told the Head of recuitment when we had the conversation earlier and she said "that's fine".. Also, their shifts are 12 hours (it doesn't fit my work permit) in a day, there's no way I wouldbe able to work there with my 20hrs limit in the first place. They know this because I clearly stated it in my application. So why shortlist for interview in the first place if you cant sponsor for me to work. I cant even work there because the employment is for full time. Are they not confused like this?
