Good day everyone, me and my wife intends to relocate to the UK through the student pathway. From our calculation the amount needed for our prove of fund is #16,866,600. We have a guaranteed accomodation. If we are able to prove we have an accommodation, can the amount required for prove of fund be reduced when apply for Visa? Anyone with a link of who can help with the prove of fund? Kindly quote me with your answer 08059290962

No, your living expenses will still be the same.
If that will be possible, everybody will be claiming that they have an accomodation and the discount will be applied...

hosey:
You are right.

We understand you guys clearly and the message is that our dreams should be at minimum till maximum happens.
Do you know that those ones you call minimum, can be people's maximum, before anyone will start climbing a high horse, the person must have attained a certain position

hosey:
Lol. Another thing many of these guys don't know is tax. Once you earn above 50000 pounds, your tax rate will be 40% of your revenue.

So no matter how much you work, the government still benefits. This also includes self-employment.

Most of these people thought this is Nigeria where they do not pay any tax. They also dont know that the average salary in the UK in 2022 is
£29,600 per year. After tax and national insurance you will be left with £23,768. This means that after tax you will take home £1,981 every month. When you consider rent, car, utility bills, council tax, wife and children, family obligations, you might have no savings.

Most white people survive on credit with their credit card. All what you see they buy is on credit and it is not theirs. All these iphones, car, mortgaged house, TV, apple laptop and many more are on credit. Once you default, the real owner will collect everything from you. Why do you think there are many homeless people running about in the west? Why do you think the highest suicide rate is in the west?

Make informed decision before you come to the UK. No one is discouraging you but be aware so you wont regret.

From the way you explained it, it is still ok for an average Nigerian with nothing to boast of, if a Nigerian can find somewhere to live on credit, they will make exploits from nothing...

Munamoqel:
10 house's? Really so ever year since he step into on a visit visa he buys a house .weldone sir

May not be a visit Visa, is visit Visa the only Visa category in UK?

toyolax:
Bros, you're now sounding like a broken record...how dare you compare security in the UK with that of Nigeria? Between January and now how many people have been 'unnecessarily' killed in Nigeria and how many in the UK? No country is completely safe but the security situation is at the lowest ebb.

It's rare to hear that a Nigerian living in UK, US, Australia and Canada died, I dont think I have heard something like that, they all live as much years as they want and still come back to Nigeria to meet many of their friends and family members already dead.

giselle237:
they will be humbled. 4k take home means your gross should be around 5700 a month. They are playing

Actually,
Some people's intentions may just be to make those kind of money
you UK oldies always mention on a daily basis here on this thread...
Most of you guys have already bought/mortgage houses all over UK.
Most of you guys sells pounds everyday, does pounds grow on trees in UK?, I dont know.
Most of you guys are house owners in UK, those ones may be enough for most Nigerians, if they can attain that same level in life.
Every step counts...

I repeat na poverty dey drive people,take it or leave it, being a nurse or Dr does not immune you against poverty,a university professor is not a ticket to huge wealth,if you think i am lying check the salaries of university professor in uk,most of them are around £32,000 -£45,000.
When I say poverty,it is not the absence of money alone, poverty of the mind is the worse which is more rampant these days, it has to do with what has been ingrained into our brains,your "Rich Boss" who abandoned his business to seek PR is only rich in currency but not in business or managerial acumen,he must have been those who suddenly found themselves on top.
Lastly,you see those who are leaving because you are hell bent on leaving, because that is the only thing that make sense to you,no qualms,but i see so many who are back from the same journey.
Those business ideas and innovations you see around are the handiwork of returnees,some of the best specialist Hospitals you see around today are own by them,the finance house's,the Fintechs,the IT Servicing companies,the oil servicing companies,the independent Media and what have you.
I am not against any going anywhere,but i can assure you that in 10yrs time you will be back to same Nigeria to come and make money/impact.
Just go and add value to yourself but no too put mind

Just read what you wrote once again,
one time you are supporting yourself, the other time supporting him.
You mean most of the companies are owned by RETURNEES?, allow him to go first, make solid money to build companies(to stop working for people) and surely, I bet you, he will gladly with a joyful heart become a full fledged returnee with a company in Nigeria.
I doubt how many years it will take him in Nigeria here working for others and keep referring them as "My boss" to make the kind money use in building company in this present economy.

okonja:
Well it depends on your career and your goal in life.

An average IT support earns 150k - 250k per month here which practically finishes without savings at the end of the month BUT same IT support can earn as low as £3k - £4 k per month.

Let us assume 50% goes with all expenses including tax, £1,500 - £2,000 balance remaining will make you know this process is worth it when you convert it to Naira @ N780/£ and duly enjoy basic amenities you are been taxed for.

You deserve an award

When it comes to diligence and competence in terms of getting back to applicants and responding fast, I give it to sunderland. Aside from giving offer less than 72hrs, they have my respect. I uploaded a letter as evidence that my degree was taught in English yesterday being a public holiday but to my surprise, they got back to me today with conditional offer of payment. This can’t be said for derby

Sunderland's process has never been cleared to me, I tried applying on their site but couldn't not until they sent a link to my mail through which I applied.

Since application, I have not been able to track it on their page, I will be getting error message like NO ACTIVE CONTAINER, going back to the link they sent to me, it has expired... I applied for Mechanical Engineering

Truvelisback:
There is nothing blind abt my point. I just need a clarification abt ur claim. How many of u were in the 3bedroom flat? And why did the girl chose to come to ur room?

How many of us?
Am not the Op, i don't also know how jail is, just stating some facts...

Truvelisback:
I have attended Waec lesson b4 and i have not heard of such. So, who is or was the owner of the 3bedroom flat?

What language do you speak so that i will write in your language for better comprehension?
What is who owns the flat?
A waec lesson center, decided to take their candidates to another State and to a rural area that they believed that their wont be tough invigilation during waec exams and decided to rent a flat for their candidates to stay... and your question is that they dont have the right to rent an accmodation for their candidates or there is a specific kind of house recommended for them or they should live in the Bush?

I dont understand your questions but better ask someone around you how waec special lesson centres handle their candidates during waec and why candidates believe that lesson centers are the best or how their candidates used to excell in their exams, no time for unnecessary blind argument...

OnalowKey:
I don't know too much, still learning and will continue to learn but not this obvious lie.
He might not ask for money, but his lie of a story could make someone sympathetic to loss his/her money to scammer.
What am simply doing is to enlighten the public to be sure about who they actually choose to help.

He maybe actually lying but what prove do you have to conclude that he lied?
Dont you know that the story maybe true too?
You just concluded so fast, a case of dead on arrival...

dep07:
please don't compare life in Nigeria to that of Abidjan. Rent is monthly here and landlord no dey hear abeg.
Life is much more expensive compared to Nigeria. But life is easier, constant light , security is okay. There is peace of mind in Abidjan.

Dont bother saying much about abijan, I have also lived outside Nigeria for more than 10 years and I understand how rent is paid, I am not comparing Nigeria with Abijan but someone with 90k salary and free accomodation provided with some basic amenities, will be better with time as long as the person realises that the said salary is not much and do all his or her cooking at home, buy much food stuffs to last like 3 months from Nigeria and dont forget that accomodation is sorted by the employer, tell me what else will consume the money?

Truvelisback:
Lol, that is to say, it was included in Waec fees. I have never heard abt Waec cordinators making arrangement for Students. That's the duty of the Sch management or Principal of the School.

Waec Special centers are not full blown schools, they will have to merge their students with a school, so they can write waec under the school...
Woo!
I dont know how to explain this to you again baba, ask someone around you, what is waec lesson center.

Truvelisback:
How did he or both of got into a 3bedroom flat? Was it rented? Who owns the 3bedroom flat?

Waec special center coordinators used to arrange that whenever they take their candidates to another state for waec runs, are you not a Nigerian?
Didn't you see the video of the 10 years old of Chrisland school having sex, why not ask how those kids got into the room?

OnalowKey:
You forgot to tell us your dad is also late and you happen to be the only child of your parents

Stop claiming *I too know*, follow his stories first and whenever he demands for money, then you can have reasons to point fingers.
Give him time to heal and chit chat with friends here, you dont know what he is passing through, someone may not be able to pass all information rightly through written English which is not our first language...

Allow him to heal, if his story is true, we dont know the truth, only God does.

Truvelisback:
I'm not saying that. Ur story seems not to be clear to me. U knew the girl has been making sexual advancement on u and u both lodge in a 3bedroom flat. Did u or both of u rented the 3bedroom flat or it was her parents or ur parents 3bedroom flat? Who owns the 3bedroom flat?

Read his story very well Oga, stop looking for flaws.
He said they went for waec in Kaduna, which was not his original base, didn't you experienced waec special center things?

Tranquility2345:
How can someone live happily in an expensive town like Abidjan with 90k cfa a month? That’s like 75k Naira….

Brother,
Everybody's level is not the same, most people will use their 23-46kg airline baggage allowance to buy food stuffs.
Most of my friends then, dont even know how to cook in Nigeria, talk more of cooking, when not in Nija, most times, they call for food from restaurants which was money consuming.
You can see that the ones that used to bring food stuffs from Nigeria saved more than the ones that doesn't.

90k is much money for some people in Nigeria, I know of a teacher with Bachelor in Education from UNN but her startup salary was 30k by a Federal girls college after being retained from NYSC, if that person sees a job of 90k, do you know what it means?

My guy working with FCDA Abuja, as a Civil Engineer started with 100k salary...

So anybody that can not live happily with 90k salary, should calm down within sometime and little savings, things will start getting better...
No hurry in life... Nobody fit shoot sky catapult...

Kingsley1000:
U sabi cook Nigerian food?
Enter Yopongon and start eatery business or go near the main spare parts market and start mama put biz.

Within 1 year, ur one million will turn to 3million

Am in spare parts business and I usually meet Nigerians living in Ivory coast most time on my business trips offshore...

Spare parts business flourishes in that region I guess?

tochez24:
You're a very wicked person!!!
Don't mock people's little beginning, many have succeeded with even less that amount in a foreign land, people stars are different, but you just sit in your comfort zone to discourage and mock people trying to make an effort.

Let me shock you, I'm coming to Abidjan whether that place is hell or not next month and you can't do shit about it, no be today person begin suffer.... All die na die.

Continue with your wickedness, God in heaven will surely repay every man in his own coin!!!!

As your spirit is leading you so, make the exploit...
You will be among the successful ones with this moral...
Goodluck bro

Thanksss:
You are old enough to choose what is best for you,if you think the online form A is the best for you then go for it.

I just ask a question that can't someone access Form A from UK without involving a third party?

Thanksss:
Yes,if you have a trustworthy person to carry out the transaction for you by filling the form A,that’s the best way to pay off the school fees ,making pounds here den you convert to naira

I thought Form A is online, what will the trust worthy person do?
Can't one access formA from Uk?

AlphaUno:
Do not fret, cos that's the new tracking interface.
Just watch out for 'application transferred to VAC' and 'application received by VAC' when they turn green, you should then receive your pickup mail from TLS

Is this same tracking interface used for business and visit visas?

Cjaylawson:
bro na waec I get o no time for IELTS I dey move on

Hello house,
I want to ask a question about employment letter and reference letter for Visa application...

I dont have access to the employment letter and reference letter of the job I did from 2014 to 2018 but I have for the job am doing from 2019 to date...

My question is, how many employment and reference letters are we supposed to submit?
I have study gap of 11 years

duchess90:
Hello,

So I understood your question at the end of the day.

Some churches have the Nigerian coat of arms on their certificate and do not necessarily do a different registry marriage although documents will be filed in court.

It is good you want to make her happy, that's the right thing to do as a good man but do so with wisdom.

If I can advise, settle in at school and if UK is your Japa destination then try to settle down through other routes i.e PSW or Skilled workers visa after school.You need all the funds you can gather, every visa application requires funds nothing is free.

Then plan your vow renewal after 10years of marriage in the UK, that will be worth a party.She can wear her white and do Owambe

All the best

By then, she go don old and can't slay again.

Ugmama:
@mimilyrics You understand this well, she really wants to wear the wedding dress, slay and snap pictures shikena. That's her happiness.

@justwise yes many people I know did trad, court marriage and white wedding.

Women shaa,
Then why not wait till after your studies or when settled properly in UK and start working, then you can come back to Nigeria to throw a high end party and call people you know to come and FLEX una money with you guys.

How many people do you know in UK that will attend your wedding?

Your wife just want people that knows her to also see that she did wedding and not just that one done at the registry...

Women and wahalux!

Like me,
I no too dey satisfied with the kind of wedding I did, compare to my friends that brought down the whole world on their wedding day.
I will not repeat the wedding, if money enter well, I will be waiting for an opportunity wey gbedu go come my way like any of my dependent birthday(Wife or kids) or naming ceremony of any child of mine, then I will try to make a statement for the world to read, I will invite even people wey I no know to come chop...

Na then them go know say ODOGWU, no be nickname
