"While you are in the UK, take the opportunity to get US visit visa (this is very important for old people " can you give reason(s) why this is important for old people? Thanks
fetomowo:
This needs to be stressed out more than once. If you don't have money for living expenses. Please go to a university that you can afford.

It may help if your are coming with family - a spouse that can hustle full-time.

Spread out your program for two years by doing a two year masters. In that case you can legally work 20 hours per week spread over the time period. Then you can also have two summer breaks if you have a January start (this maybe a better time if you really need the work to support your finance). Once for September start. Summer breaks usually span 3-4 months anytime between April-September depending on your school.

During summer breaks as well as between your course end date and graduation date you can work as much as your body will allow you.

Again, don't go to cities that are costly. You will struggle to pay bills. You will have no savings and most probably you won't be able to complete your tuition payment. (An advice - don't start sending money to Nigeria, save your money in the UK, keep a low profile. It's not yet time to start doing Father Christmas.)

Post Study Work Visa is not guaranteed. You can be eligible and still not get it. So you must have other plans. While you are in the UK, take the opportunity to get US visit visa (this is very important for old people - those in their 30s and above), you can look at Canada and Australia for skilled immigration, if you are pretty young (early twenties) or you are young (late twenties and early thirties) and have a family.

Those of you that like to abuse opportunities thinking no one is watching you. Better believe it the UK have your records o. Una go collect contract phone Una nor go pay. You dey owe council tax after your finish school. May be your case don dey with magistrate sef. If you are interested in PSW na to behave yourself properly o. Nor chook hand for wetin some other Naija people dey do o. Your own route is PSW, do only what will not affect your chances. You and person wey dey file for Refugee status nor be the same thing.

Another option is to do another Masters, if you've saved up. Or continue on a PhD. This need not be in the UK. If you have the money consider continental Europe, Republic of Ireland, Germany, Austria, Netherlands etc.

By all means, make sure you are not returning to Nigeria the way you left. Well that is if jakpa is your ultimate goal. Have plan A, B, C, and D. If life happens to A, you switch to B. Start planning now!


I hope I have spoken well.

Bro we are talking about making money here and financial freedom, I finished my service last year and I never get a Job , within 1year I earned almost 4million which I’m using to apply for UK masters , I have direct family in US and direct family IN UK, but I can tell you people in the US spend more and give more than those in UK , the thing is that you don’t have family abroad and you don’t know much about some countries economy and immigration policies US is much better than UK in terms of earning and financial freedom and you are here talking about your certificate…. Oya chop your certificate na nonsense.

I tend to agree with your points though, what you said are facts
fetomowo:
You don't have to. You can always return back home if you find it difficult to move to your preferred destination or remain in the uk. That's why I listed several options as much as I can for anyone willing to relocate. A 200 word piece is by no means an encyclopedia. Do your research.

You may need a USA visa for many reasons aside living illegally in the US to raise funds for your next move. You may need it to help you be able to secure visas from Nigeria, travel history, transit, or travel to some countries etc.

USA visa sha dey important for your pally. In my opinion, its basic. If you dey mama chale country, it is easier to get than in Naija o.

Yes, your spouse can sponsor only if you are applying at the same time or your spouse is present in the UK. Otherwise, he/she cannot sponsor.

From experience, my spouse was the sponsor of our family of 4, we applied at the same time and we all got our visas.

I'm yet to see any refusal letter regarding this, so i can't start a thread based on rumour

Yes it will be good to start one but it should be based on facts/evidence

I'm yet to see a refusal letter too, as someone noted, I was shown a post on twitter with a comment that working more than 20 hours was the main infraction leading to the alleged refusals.

My initial thought was also that it seemed a little early to be applying for the post study visa as the session is still on and results are not yet finalised (in my Uni at least).

However, I still think there is the need to create a dedicated thread for post study work as a category of visa in itself, so that applicants can get as much help as on other threads such as this, spouse, general, skilled visas etc

Pay the entire thing you will get the discount. Before enrolment.

2. You are right with that. My brain and my fingers need to sync better. grin
Exoticmm:


Please if one wants to pay entire tuition, how then does the discount apply? Do you pay the entire thing and the school reimburses you (which I doubt) or you pay short of the discount fee?

2. I believe the title is “Ms.”, Mx. is more about gender identity.

A US visit visa is basic. It's not just for old people, obviously old people do not have the luxury of time to be dillydallying, so a double emphasis there if you aren't in your youth.

1. It can help in multiple ways. Yes there is the infamous illegal stay. That is where some people's mind go to. It's a personal choice. I have never overstayed in any place. But, I am not obtuse to the fact people make such decisions and take such risks.

2. You can easily pick a job interview in the US. A friend's contract was terminated by Andela in Nigeria. Luckily she had a visit visa. Went to Cally. Got a few job offers. Interviewed for it. Came back to Nigeria to apply for H-1B with the help of company lawyers. Earning $115K per annum now. Another friend has transited to this particular work visa without leaving the US. I have no idea how that's done.

3. You can go for business, tourism, conference or vacation.

4. You demonstrate that you've passed the strictest security screening possible. This may help you easily secure visas to countries with high denial rates.

5. You can potentially travel to 49 countries visa free. On transit, visit or business.
A friend once had to go to apply for visa to a country whose embassy was not in Nigeria in another country. US visa came handy.

6. US visa is easier to obtain in the UK. (They didn't even ask for my bank statement on the two occasions, that's not possible at their embassy in Nigeria. Bonus: my last US visa. I attended interview without a bank statement. I nor get anything for za account.)

7. Demonstrate travel history, if you've used your Visa.

8. Some personal reasons and choices which may not exactly be legal such as birth tourism, medical tourism, aur pair etc.

Note: Please don't turn this into a debate for or against illegal immigration.

@Chadon007. Did you do your Biometric in Ikeja or VI

Chadon007:


Please @justwise,
I have a very pressing question.
I have an aunt in UK who I didn't declare as Family in UK during my student visa application. Mind you I used her address as UK address for TB test but I chose my school address in my visa application and said No when asked if I will stay in another location in UK. Also, she was the one that paid for my IHS and visa fee with her card.
Now, I did my biometrics ( standard) on 27th July and got not straight forward mail on 6th Aug.
Please, as I prepare for an interview should I be called, how do you recommend I answer the question of " if I have a family in the UK".
NB: Aunt and Uncle was not among the options listed as close family in the visa application.

Morning Everyone.

Just a quick but urgent question please.

While trying to fill a dependants IHS application who recently returned from the UK the cost showed $0 and a IHS reference number was issued! Is this normal because i am aware paying IHS surcharge is a must? Please bear in mind that we had said "No" to staying in isle of man, Jersey or Guernsey questions. Will appreciate response from @justwise and every other wise person in the house. Many thanks.
