huh

The amount of ridiculous emails and calls I get for telecoms engineering roles even as low as £150pd and the sheer number of field engineering roles paying 25k is enough proof of this.
wink wink
If that’s what you call proof then no point arguing with you ...

Hi, Telecoms is quite wide, can you be specific with your area of specialisation? Generally there are telecoms jobs but most are low paying (at least to me). I will be more specific if I know your industry/specialty and if I have information on it.
You are right telecoms industry is very wide hence he needs to be specific what he wants and what qualifications he/she has...

And no they are not low paying job. Especially if you not a contractor and you work directly with the company ..... BT(EE,Vodafone,plusnet,02) they all have good starting salaries.

In the UK, if going through a divorce. The name change plays 0% part in anything............

If the husband likes, he should only buy the property or properties, in his name only........

His wàhálà....... The wife still bearing her father's name, is still entitled to 50% of marital assets (as a starting point)....... grin

So to what end is all the wàhálà...... Would the name change - :

- Increase their love
- Increase their amount kids
- Increase his/her libido
- Increase their wealth
- Increase their debt
- Increase their credit.......... cool cheesy
My oga you’ve said it all. This is 21st century changing of name after marriage doesn’t guarantee anything...........Imagine say person change name after 6 months marriage jakpa? U go dey stock with that name or u go apply for another British passport to change the name again ?

I am an embryologist who works and live in Lagos, Nigeria. Pls I am looking forward to leaving Nigeria. Is there a way i can apply for jobs from here first or are there any professional courses to be taken. Pls I need answers. my email address is sweetjusty001@yahoo.com. Thanks
I am an embryologist, and i just got a job with a Hospital in Manchester after doing series of interview.

the starting salary is 25k annually which i consider small for me.

I would like to find out the best city to stay,( within a 30mins radius to Manchester) because i dont think i can live in the city center with that amount. also do you advise i bring my family immediately? will that salary be enough for us.

Please i need help, i have just a month to get ready.

@justwise and everybody else.

thank you.
From her statements, I think the woman has already made up her mind that 25k is too small for her, so lets leave it at that.....
She needs help with nearby affordable cities and towns around Manchester that are easy for commuting to work....
if you live around Manchester or you know the area please show her some love.

Madam as someone earlier advice, It might be best if you come first and bring you family afterwards so you can acclimatise yourself with the environment and schools for your children before moving them over. But it’s entirely up to you. I know a family that came with all the family at once and they are now settled. It’s your call. All the best

No, it isn't really abt business per se. This was just an avenue where the average Joe was earning a living without actually interacting with Nigeria's financial system fully.

Closing it in one way is beneficial but then it becomes counterproductive because lack of competition means the aboki BDC operator wakes up everyday to determine what the exchange rate should be.

I thought CBN'S policy on forex remittance was going to boost the Naira. Alas, I was shocked when my colleague showed me that Nigeria's exchange rate is determined on WhatsApp. In hindsight I realise that our currency has no fundamentals so not surprising.

Nigeria is still bae because you can earn 100% of your income back to back if you have brilliant accountants.
Bros what is the point of making 100% of your income if you can’t be sure of your life and security?....
The stories coming out of Nigeria every blessed day is full of sorrow and wickedness both by individuals and by the government....

What’s the point of making all this wealth and profit if you’ll be dead the next minute? Or if your business gets shutdown the next day without any due consultation?...

I however don’t think they can apply to naturalise until after 6 months of getting ILR.

Just imagine govt takes at least 20% of your salary, you pay council tax, you pay your bills and rent/mortgage, road tax, MOT, car insurance THEN

You joined a church.. you pay 10% of your salary as tithe, at least £30 for kingdom investment, £10 for mission support weekly, you give offering and appreciate pastor, £500 at least every Dec then by Jan you give up your salary.

So how will you save in this country?

Every Jan we get long list of prophies from many pastors but not a single one of them saw coronavirus coming last year?

Yeah he's just considering the option of moving with his wife. He knew that he can earn more if he get a professional job in the UK but he's not sure of job opportunities amidst this covid. Though he's open to anything to do anything legit so far it brings money until he get something suitable for him.
I understand you clearly now.....
I’ll advice him and his wife to sort out there UK driving licence within the 1st year of arriving as that would also help them in the pursuit of jobs, especially professional jobs in the future....
Since COVID-19 started online business have grown greatly, meaning there is now a high demand for delivery drivers... he can do this in conjunction with whatever is available within his location until he settles in properly.....
There are other things I can think of but let me not bore people here ...

Goodluck

Please I'm preparing for the whole travels , I will like to ask the elders in the house what are the necessary stuffs for to bring to UK. Be it food items or anything that will be cheaper for me to get from here and other tips for someone coming alone to UK ( I don't have any family member or Friend there)

I will also like to know about the prospect of MSc Civil and Structural Engineering in UK ( that's what I will be studying),

I look forward to hearing from you guys. Thank you in advance

As you said, it's very straightforward but there's no need to address previous refusal as she's not applying for visiting.
Ok thanks for pointing this out. However on her student visa applications they’ll ask her if she’s ever been refused entry into the UK?.. what do you suggest she says ?

[quote author=Gracegal post=98299854][/quote]From this letter it is clear you did not submit sufficient proof of your financial capabilities.(I.e not enough money to see you through out your visit).
Your case worker thinks you disguising your true intentions for applying for a visitors visa. They scared you might not return if granted visitors visa..
However you’ve stated that you now intend applying via the study route which is very straightforward.

I don’t think it will affect your student visa application if you fill it honestly.
In you application be honest and declare all visa refusals you’ve got .Also address those issues raised before (finances).
Submit sufficient proof of educational qualifications including your UK admission letters.

Other experience people would advice you more when the come online ....

Hello, I have been a silent reader but recently joined to ask this question. Please help out in answering...
I got married Feb 2013, applied for a UK visa in March 2013 but while filling my application I ticked single. I was new in marriage and I didn't know it mattered as I had not changed my surname to my husband's own. However, I am about to apply for a study visa now with my husband and children. What excuse do you think I can give as to why I did not indicate I was married in my prior application. That has been my only application to UK so far and I was rejected, I have never gone back to apply for a visa up till now.
Expecting your responses, thank you.
If you’ve got the letter of refusal that was given to you in 2013... Read it again and tell us exactly what we’re the reasons for rejecting your application. Was it just the mistake of you not declaring your true marital status or a combination of other reasons? ..
Alternatively take a screenshot that”refusal section of your letter and post it here so we can advice you appropriately...
Make we no come give you half and half advice based on limited information you’ve supplied which might put you for another trouble ...
