Way to go. #DueDiligence. Mind sharing which of the bootcamp this is. Will be deeply appreciated. Would assist us all in knowing which category it belongs to. Thanks. Standing by. zxxtx:[Extract] Thank you for your email. So unfortunately you wouldn't be eligible due to your visa. This is due to the work restrictions and having no access to public funds, as the bootcamps are designed to get you into employment and it is government funded.

Morning Gurus and hope you all are enjoying Qatar 2022 World Cup? I have a friend on tier4,completing his study by December. She has been working with an agency over a year in various care home. One of the care home she's working with for over 6months wish to offer her COS depending on if her agency will accept and without charging Transfer fee. I know agency/temporary worker can transfer after working over 4months. Any idea on how to solve this? Tnx |

Phenmeson: Not sure if this will work for her but some peeps here applied for their P45 which obviously states an end to their employment/contract with the agency then applied/switched to the care home that’s willing to sponsor. They didn’t involve their agency. 1 Like |

Please house how can someone handle this issue of 20hrs on second job? to be honest it's difficult getting shifts that will give you that as mist shifts are 12hourly making it 22hrs weekly after break. Will the extra 2hrs be a problem or is it negligible? |

LagosismyHome: You need your covid green passport showing you have been double vaccinated and expected to have filled the online form for tracking should you develop symptoms. You won't even fly without the code from the online website to Nigeria. if You dare attempt to come back without them the airline won't allow you board at Heathrow |

Uzonma: The below is an excerpt from an immigration law website. Many others say the same thing, including the government website. Anything over 20 hours sounds like a breach of visa conditions which could make visa renewal more complicated and subject to the discretion of the home office. Can A Tier 2 General Visa Holder Do Additional Paid Work? Yes, a Tier 2 General visa holder can take on additional employment of up to 20 hours per week. It is important to note that this additional work must be either on the Shortage Occupation List or be in the same field and level as the job that you are sponsored to do. You must also ensure that it does not interfere with the hours that you would generally spend on your sponsored work. This is important, as any additional work is likely to be scrutinised intensely when it comes to any review of your visa. One of the most common questions for Tier 2 General Visa holders is whether they can be self-employed. This type of work, unfortunately, is prohibited. We have seen many examples of people taking on self-employment while in the UK on a Tier 2 General Visa and having significant problems after registering for self-assessment. While taking on a self-employed role is relatively easy these days, we urge you to not potentially affect your visa by taking on such work. The punishment for failure to follow visa conditions can be severe and certainly not worth it. |

Uzonma: If Nairaland people tell you it is, will you follow that despite the clear statement on the Home Office site and the email they sent you? Anyway, my advice is to not try and find out by yourself - just discuss with the people you work with or find some other arrangement. Your payslips and tax filings will clearly reflect your hours and if you go over consistently, it'll be clear you're wilfully breaking the law, as opposed to occasional timing errors which I know are treated leniently - at Tier 4 level, anyway. |

Hi good morning famz. I'm very new to this thread Have got my amex card sometimes ago now and recently spent around £500. Wanna pay back and something came to my mind like instead of paying directly using my Lloyds, can't I use my GTBANK master card. It'd be cheaper. But I don't know if it makes sense cos I'm still new to the whole stuff. Anyone with adequate knowledge of this should please educate me. Thanks |

If you are going to the Nigerian High Commision for passport renewal and you booked an appointment, I have one piece of advice for you. Ignore your appointment time and get there as soon as possible. Apparently, your appointment time does not matter (they just need to know you booked), You are given a tally number when you get there, that determines when you are attended to. Hence the earlier you get there, the earlier you leave. Also be prepared to stand for a while. I can't imagine what people with little kids would have gone through if an adult like was that stressed. Also be prepared to spend the whole day. Hopefully you all have better experience that I did last week. Nigeria, we hail thee.. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Hello Madam Ticha cc: Oga @Lexusgs430, Oga @TheGuyFromHr et all. We vacated our 2 BR flat on Nov 3, 2022 (12 days to the end of our 6 months tenancy - Nov 15th), although we gave more than 1 month notice to our A bit of background - he didn't talk to us since we paid and moved in. He didn't fix any issues we had in the flat despite several follow-ups. He didn't also register our deposit neither did he sign and give us any contract/agreement. Now, since we've left, he is yet to refund our deposit. We've called times severally but didn't pick up, he later blocked my line from calling him. His maintenance guy had notified him that the flat was left in good order. Kindly advise with which organisation/body I can escalate to, to recover our £775 deposit back. And will I pay for this service? We are based in Liverpool. Many thanks! Ticha: 1 Like |
