Monmarri: What letters please? I know someone who used a scan copy of their BSc transcript issued in 2011 and was successfully assessed by NARIC. Shed more light on your question, and you may be helped. |

LagosismyHome: Thanks for the input. Should have clarified currency as being USD. I'll probably keep an eye out for moneyfex in that case. |

Hi Fam, Please is there anyone who has info on what one needs to do to be able to work in Banks or financial institutions in the UK (asking for someone with 7 to 9years experience in Banking who just moved to UK from Nigeria) |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Monmarri: 7:25pm On Oct 19, 2020 |
RalphJean: Thank you for your response. I appreciate. The letter is the one that her university addressed to Naric ""confirmation of English as a medium of instruction"". Find attached the letter. The letter was typed on 8Nov last year and now she wants to apply to Naric with her degree certificate, transcript and the university letter. But the letter was typed around last year Nov. She could not apply last year due to some circumstances. I am now asking if she can still scan the letter to Naric with the date of last year. Will Naric accept it? Thank you

Good evening All, pls what’s the best/recommended bank for a student/ dependant. Preferably a bank without much kyc documentation. NatWest is requesting for proof of address ie Bank statement or Utility Bill or Tax. I am staying in an Airbnb and can not provide that. |

Urgent advice needed please, a friend of mine just arrived the UK to study but she just found out she is expecting. Please what is the implication on her studies and otherwise? 1 Like |

Risazii: There’s no implication on her studies that I’m aware of. She should face her studies, when it’s time to drop she drops. No biggie. 1 Like |

Risazii: When universities are front facing, she would see other ladies, also in the same whatsapp group....... ![]() The only limitation, is her condition...... What type of pregnancy would she have?....... ![]() |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by LagosismyHome(f): 8:53am On Oct 20, 2020 |
Risazii: Why didnt she plan herself well, to go on a contraceptive or something However what will happen depends on an individual. If she can do both been pregant and do school as normal then no problem If she has complications with pregnancy and for example has an extended stay in hospital then such situation becomes tricky with attendance. But now with remote role you can get away with some thing. My colleague sent baby pic last week, absolutely nobody knew she been pregant all this while. However her husband is not working so will take care of the baby full time while she works so little impact Hope this lady has help .... if she does then it makes it easier as well |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Risazii: 9:27am On Oct 20, 2020 |
Thanks, she is here alone for now, according to her she is on contraceptives so it's a surprise to her LagosismyHome: |

Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by LagosismyHome(f): 9:35am On Oct 20, 2020 |
Risazii: If she here alone ...she needs to find some support system here or hopefully make some new friends that can be her support system later on.... because been a super mummy is not an easy job and can become emotionally draining or overwhelmeing if all alone . Although many single mothers do it daily. Kudos to women At least one less worry. All her medical bills will be covered by NHS so at least she doesnt have to worry about that 2 Likes |

It doesn't matter when she got the English language proficiency letter, she will still be issued a NARIC certificate. I got my letter in 2018, B.Sc Certificate in 2014 and I applied for NARIC last month. It was delivered in soft copy within 10days. She can apply with the letter, no hassle at all 1 Like |

Risazii: She needs to start arranging for support, her last project will be affected if she is doing masters. She also need the money to buy baby stuff, suitable accommodation for her and the baby |

She shouldn’t declare the pregnancy to uni just yet, she shld carry on with her studies. When she’s heavy or nee delivery she can then apply for leave of absence or extenuating circumstance Risazii: 2 Likes 1 Share |

Risazii: Hahahahaha she still has the naija university mentality. Please tell her to unlearn everything she learned concerning tertiary institutions in Nigeria. Here, if her lecturers find out she’s pregnant, they will even be petting her. |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by Aphrodite007(f): 11:48am On Oct 20, 2020 |
LagosismyHome: No o, if you’re pregnant and it’s a hard pregnancy, she just needs to inform welfare at her uni and they will take care of her well. If she even misses lectures, welfare will write to her department to inform them. If she misses assignment, she can easily get extensions if she presents her hospital letter and letter from welfare. Nothing will happen to her, except the difficulty of pregnancy if she has no one to take care of her. But school wise, she’s good to go. |

omopapa: I don’t think she should hide it. She should speak to a rep at the student union to ask for advise- make sure it’s not a Nigerian you see o, cos some Nigerians still have their bias. 1 Like |

Risazii: This is the last thing any UK university will ever do and I cannot see it happening. If it ever happens, it can be viewed as discriminatory and the university in question can be sued to court with thousands of pounds of compensation at stake. I think most universities have support systems in place to give special priviledges to pregnant students. However, undergoing a Masters degree and raising a child will be very difficult, but not impossible. The rigour involved in raising a baby alone is more than a masters degree project on its own. Good luck to her. 2 Likes |

Good afternoon all. Please, I have some questions, and again it is on passport renewal. 1) For those who applied for passoprt renewal during the lockdown period, after payment did you also have to fill the Biometric Appointment Booking Form. My payment was on August 24th and did not realize I had to fill the form untill yesterday. Will this affect my appointment date? 2) Will there be any form of consequence if a tier 2 holders passport gets renewed some weeks/months after the expiry date (while the BRP is still very valid)? Many thanks in advance. |
