babranancy:There are two types of deposits. The first one is to secure the apartment, this is paid if you like the accommodation after viewing it. The second one is what we call damages or damage fee in Nigeria and is paid at the point of paying rent if you decide to go ahead with the house. |

I have some funds that I'm not using now and hoping to invest it. When I checked Monzo, I saw like 0.3 pounds as interest for savings. I was thinking of mutual funds in Nigeria but again it will cost me to transfer my pounds across border and vice versa. What are the investment options here, which bank has mutual funds. My money is too idle please. Apologies if this issue has been dealt before, difficult going through the pages. Thanks. |

Good morning house.. I arrived UK 2wks ago, Can I apply for DBS online as I don't have police clearance report And some employers are asking about it..? Thanks |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Nobody: 12:35pm On Feb 02, 2022 |
Uzonma: You can but it's better for the company to do it for you. Sometimes the DBS letter might get to you after the deadline to register it on the website. |

GUYS I NEED HELP! I'm about 2 weeks in UK with wife n 2 kids Just finished my quarantine and ready for work life. Sent out numerous CV for care worker/assistant role. Got couples of calls, but they keep asking for at least 1 month UK experience. Some even ask if am moniker and have driving license. Need guys with experience to tell me how to go about this asap. Need to start making some money ASAP. Aside from the care home jobs, I need recommendation of a credible security training outfit that I can take up their course for SIA License. Thank you guys. 1 Like |

Does anyone have an idea of how long it takes to get your passport after capturing(standard appointment and not fast track). Also can one request for the passport to be posted to my address and what’s the process please? |

The issue is that you have been sending CVs out by ursef. I think what you shld do is register with recruitment agencies in ur area, pay them to trained you and sort ur DBS. They will probably send you out for unpaid shift for one or two days to get practical experience before they send you out to make money for yourself. Otherwise, do the DIY method by doing the training online and watching YouTube videos but u will still need reference to land a job. Also, while your waiting to land a job, maybe it will be a good time to start making plans on getting a uk license as it seems most companies now prefer to hire a carer that drives. ibk5891: 3 Likes 2 Shares |

5gee: OK thank you for replying. I understand, yes UK is kinda going down but they are hiding it and people can't really see it. You are right, why allow the UK govt take from you so much with little in return, and making the public pay for thier bad actions. I have an offer for a job back in Africa and might finally decide to take it and leave and spready wings and windows of opportunities. Same with you, Although successful, I wasn't really fulfilled here and need to make a positive change fast now I'm young. Freedom is here for you and us, lol. Best wishes and God bless you 4 Likes |

ibk5891: Also if you’ve ever taken care of your Mother, Father or Grand Parents who were unwell it’s also Care Experience. Maybe not UK care but don’t discount it. Still tender it as experience. 3 Likes |
