Has anyone rented a flat above a shop before. ..ie a restaurant. Care to share your experience... I am seeing one for some friends relocating from naija. The rental price is less but I am sure there would be a catch living above a shop 1 Like |

Santa2:the koko is the crime committed plus or minus the sentence length … that’s the deciding factor to rule him out of jobs. For example, healthcare industry wont take some crimes even if time past as patients are already classified as vulnerable people |

CheesyTee: Is it possible to get more than that? I'd like $1K+ if possible |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by CheesyTee(f): 4:03pm On Sep 16, 2022 |
hustla: You can only apply for 6 months reimbursement at a time. Since the IHS fee is dependent on the length of your visa, you can't get more than the initial amount paid. Also, once you switch to another visa, you will not be able to claim old IHS fee. Unless of course if you paid IHS on new visa and have worked 6 months in healthcare with the visa 2 Likes |

Osoderi: Nice one, congratulations. I just applied yesterday for mine. The issue am having is that I want them to make the payment to my account here in the UK. The dollar account I used in Nigeria is not active at the moment and I don't have the strength to activate account and getting a card from Nigeria. Anyone who has successfully received payment in another account should guide me through. |

This man no go kee person for NL. That 5k third party insurance na pocket/life saver for Naija. At this rate, it's best to get a UK licence than attempting to drive with a Naija licence. Lexusgs430: 1 Like |

hustla: No o. You can only apply for reimbursement every six months as you will be required to upload 6 months payslip to evidence your claim. I should add: you get refund for dependents too. |

Thank you. I will answer to the best of my knowledge. 1. If you use credit ladder, you will be able to report to your preferred credit platform for free. If you want to report to multiple you will need to pay for a subscription. 2. Too many banks will not affect your score. It's the credit activities like overdrafts that goes to your credit record. 3. There are two types of checks: soft and hard. Most platforms will let you know if it's a soft check or not before you proceed. The soft checks don't go into record and will not affect your score. Some bank apps like Lloyds will let you see your score directly from the app. 4. Use credit ladder for that. It will ask for authorization to read your bank statements and save the one with your rent reference Osoderi: 2 Likes 1 Share |

CheesyTee: What if I don't do care / support again after the initial 6 months? Or I can continue to use the same 6 months payslip to continue to apply For the dependent, do they also have to work in the care sector too? |

hustla: Once u are not in health care sector u can not claim it. Not possible again for you to use the same six months, they have all your previous payslips u have used. Be careful bf they cancel your visa. Once u are working in health care sector all y dependants will claim the money even if y wife/hubby is not working in health care. |
