Good day everyone, my wife has the done everything needed to get care sponsorship but all our search has been a struggle. She has submitted her CV on several websites. Our police clearance expires next month. Can we get an advice on how to get a sponsor really quick? Our rent expires next month. We need a sponsor that will give COS really quick.

COS real quick? Haba! No one has that information. Even if its all these paid ones...it doesn't come the way you expressed it. Leave pcc for now. Renew ur rent or just buy some time with ur landlord. And keep trying. Good luck

chy55:
Please which IELTS will someone who is going for Care job take. IELTS Ukvi General or IELTS Ukvi Academic?

Either of fine so long as there is ukvi there

Gbagura:

Oh amazing, thank you!

Can you use Ecctis for UKVI work sponsorship?

Thanks

Yes please.

taolut:
Thank you for your response.
I managed to get a date for her today for IELTS but they didn’t let her write the exam as her passport is with UKVI and they said she wouldn’t be able to write the exams without her passport.
Will ECCTIS accept another form of ID such as national Id?

Yes please. If u have ur transcript and medium of instruction ready including your final certificate then ecctis will be swift. You dont need ur passport for it

taolut:
Good morning house and a Happy New Year to all.

May all your dreams come true and your silent prayers answered this year.

Can one write the PTE exam without a passport, say with National Id for example?
My younger sister has found herself in this situation for some reasons - agent that did her application said she would be fine with the general IELTS that’s not UKVI as she has a high actors against my concerns. Now she has received an email to provide the UKVI one. We booked IELTS in a rush and they have denied her taking the exam this morning.
Her passport is still with the embassy so I am looking for a way to savage the situation.

@Airvance907 I would really appreciate if you can advise how did you manage to write the exams pleaee?

Thanks

Why dont u do ecctis?? Fast track 24hrs fast track. I did 48hrs for a friend and the even got it done in 24hrs.
I hope this helps

Uzland:
HELLO FAMILY, WELCOME TO 2023!!!❤️

Congratulations to those of us who recently succeeded in this journey!

And to those of us still striving, don't give up - there's light at the end of the tunnel!

Let's hope that the UK govt won't decide to remove caregiver roles from the SW/HACW visa by Feb. But if it happens, there'll be hope on other developed countries opening up soon.

For those who asked about what to write in the NHS 'Supporting Information' section for HCA roles, generally speaking:

You may wish to start by talking about your personal qualities, emphasizing on compassion and caring abilities etc.

You also need to discuss any professional experience, skills, and/or qualifications you have that may be relevant to the post.

So your elderly parent/relative/care home/hospital volunteer/paid experience, customer service/public speaking/community outreach ... and any other experience that you have, would have to be highlighted.

You may want to also mention your computer knowledge, care certifications, first aid or any other care-related qualification (eg. NVQ/SVQ/RQF) you have, if at all you have any.

You can round it off by reiterating your passion for helping/supporting people to live as independently as possible by providing safe, compassionate, and person-centred care...

Nevertheless, in all you do, ensure you tailor what you write in this section to suit the essential and desirable criteria for the post.

Shhh... I hope the NHS would not get me arrested for posting this expo, LoL...

All the best!❤️❤️

Nice tips

Has anyone used Middle east airlines? Does one need transit visa in Beirut Lebanon?

Pls I have a question. My wife has gotten her skilled worker visa and I want to join her before the kids. In the application, I saw where a question was asked about my minors that are financially depending on me. If I apply without my kids, will it hurt my application? I want to join my wife now and then apply for my kids later. (4 and 6 years old). I would return in 4 months or so to pick them. Did anyone go through this? What advice will you give on this?

I need information as to applying for the transit visa.

hello! did you get the transit visa? If yes, How did u do it?

Najm:
Congratulations on your wife's visa.
Please I'd like to ask when her resumption date is if you don't mind. I just want to have an idea of the gap between COS issuance and work resumption date. My wife is expecting her cos too and she wants to be able to plan accordingly. Thanks

2nd of January
It was moved from 15th of November to 2nd of January on the COS. But she wont still meet up with that 2nd because of air fare. She might likely fly second week

Dampops:
Congrats to you and your family. Did you have to prove POF or did the sponsor indicate one month maintenance?

No other pof cos Maintenance was ticked.

bonnyhope:
I be new person here

What is tier 2 ?

What's COS?

Tier 2 is a class of visa also known as skilled worker visa.
Cos means certificate of Sponsorship.
Try read from the beginning if u really dey interested in this route to the uk

Goodly1:
Congrats, bro. Please is it an NHS employer, or is it a private care home?
Also, why didn't you apply for the Health Care Worker visa that's cheaper & exempt from IHS? Any reason? Thanks for your anticipated reply.

no its not NHS, its private.
Also you dont have the option to choose, so long as it meets the requirement for Health care worker visa, that is what you get. We didnt pay for IHS

It actually took a very long time due to COS allocation
I took a lot of risk...even sent the kids to village thinking everything will work by September for where!
She had 3 interviews from different employers but this one scaled through.
3 PCCs (from 5k to 40k), 2 TB tests

I also have another story to share for my friend that is not on this forum. His COS was quite swift (1 week). only one job application. He is currently on visa application.
Also he did ecctis, which came out in less than 24hrs after payment (swift too). I paid 48hr fast track service for him but it was less than 24hrs (from 21st-22nd). I don't know if it was because of their holiday that started on 23rd. I was shocked because most people in this forum said ecctis takes 20days, 30days lol.
I thank God for everything and everyone who contributed to my questions. Its quite a helpful forum cos I read from the beginning of the thread.
Thank you guys!!

Tier4Dependant:
What’s wrong with HCA job. I have been working as a HCA for over a year in this country. Or am I missing sth?

Dont mind them. Their own is to discourage people. Thank God people like you are here to counter their comment.

bez:
I know someone who just got with listening and reading 4.0 but overall band of 6.5 B1 visa was granted on Thursday

Oh wow.
Good

tiptoe1:
Well maybe things have changed but the last person who had 4.0 in reading and had 6.5 in other sections got it but that was around March.

Okay. Im not sure if its the same lately tho. What im sure is someone I know was refused lately. I dont know why it happened.

Ferrarilord:
overall band score is 5.5 and cert B2.

I got it. They lay emphasis on each of the sections. But I can see one of ur sections dropped to 4.0 which is risky. Maybe u will ask the forum and find out if someone scaled through with that score in any of the sections lately. Be sure before apply with it.

Ferrarilord:
Please, am I good to go with an IELTS that has reading of 4.0 but overall band of 5.5 ,cert B2 Urgent please and is it okay for health care visa?

Its risky to use 4.0 lately. 4.5 and above is better. I know someone who was resfused lately cos of 4.0 this thing happened like 2weeks ago.
It should have worked considering what they stated on their website but seems they reviewed it internally. Try ecctis.

chubbyman:
Please how were you able to track your application in real time,haven't been able to track mine

I did so via the visa application link that takes me to tls website and i clicked on track to view the stages of ur application in real time. Transferred to vac, received by vac, picked by applicant all happened same day from 7am to around evening.
