DadR: Did you have a tenancy agreement in writing and signed? Did that agreement state that the landlord would use a deposit protection scheme? |

Hi Elders in the house, Does a dependent on skilled work visa need a sponsorship to work in UK or you can automatically take up any role in UK? Is it okay to click on eligible to work in UK while filling job forms |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Nobody: 3:24pm On Nov 22, 2022 |
peacenaija: Yes. As a dependent you have unlimited right to work any job/any skill level including self employment and voluntary work, (except the usual restrictions on working as a doctor or dentist in training or as a professional sportsperson/coach). 1 Like |

While the Elders pronounce, let's quickly chip in. One would have thought that the info is straightforward. However, typical, the gov.uk is 'silence'!!! https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa/your-partner-and-children No. They don't need sponsorship. No. They must have their 'right endorsed' in their BRB. This is straightforward and by default. Yes. It is okay they click on eligible to work.

DadR: Type in Google - my landlord did not protect my rent deposit. You should be able to claim x3 times of the deposit back. You are supposed to have a rental agreement but just give it a try. 1 Like |

Just a note to every other person that does not have rental agreement. It's a contract you entered, you should have a copy of the signed contract of agreement, you don't need to have a reason to have it, just have it. Most times people that don't have it are either compromising it in favour of something, but when issues start to arise, they won't mention why they didn't insist on having it, they will only tell their part of the story. |

DadR: Majority of the information you need is in my response that you quoted. Did you check that the deposit wasn't protected? You can call up any of the 3 custodial deposit schemes and they'll tell you yes or no. It's better to get all your ducks in a row first. You should have: 1. A rental contract 2. Right to rent documents (EICR certificate, gas safety check certificate, carbon monoxide alarm fitted and evidence) 3. Documents telling you where your deposit has been protected. If no for any of the 3, you need to start county court proceedings. It costs 300 quid ish but you can ask that the landlord pay your costs. Claim all your rent back, plus your deposit x 3 and your costs. https://www.gov.uk/tenancy-deposit-protection/if-your-landlord-doesnt-protect-your-deposit 11 Likes 3 Shares |

Osoderi: I don't see any reason why you should be nervous about speaking to your manager. Bereavement is an exceptional circumstance and most organisations will bend over backwards to accommodate you just because people are reasonable and also because failing to do so might be deemed unfair treatment in your employment, but that's even by the way. Just ask. I don't even believe your confirmation timeline will be affected unless you're staying an extended period of time. 3 Likes |

AlphaUno: That line is IRRELEVANT. I don’t think one should throw away their custom/tradition simply because they live or are based abroad. And I am saying this if it’s his tradition. @Osoderi Your situation is a valid reason to get some days off from work. And I am not talking about traveling as it’s a very good reason to take a week leave to attend to family situation. People here (I mean the UK people or whites as we call them) won’t think for 2 seconds to call their manager to get some days off to deal with “family emergency” as they like to call it (even if they joined the job a month ago). There are so many areas in your offer letter or contract that talks about calling or speaking to your manager about situations like this (not clearly stated as this, but this falls under emergencies). If I were in your position I would be more concerned as to why I think my manager won’t approve something like this. So speak to your manager, you have every right to take some days off to mourn your Father-In-law. People here will take some days off to mourn their pet or great grand parents, quoting that the person or pet was their source of joy during a trying time in their life ( and I consider that’s to be a very valid reason). How you present your “Second Father’s” passing to your manager may influence his/her decision and I just gave you a hint. Not something I normally like to comment on but I just can’t ignore for some reasons. If your reason for not attending your “Second Father’s” burial is work based and not family (kids n their needs ), then I think you should do some more thinking. your spouse should not have to start quoting traditions and rules for you to want to attend his father, your father-in-laws burial. I understand that work and finance is very important in our daily existence, but we also need our spouse n family to be happy so that they can celebrate with us when we get those big offers and promotions. Your family should always come first, and if your present manager thinks otherwise (which I doubt), then your main concern right now should be getting a new job with a reasonable manager before January. People here don’t play with valid reasons like this. Apologies if you feel judged in anyway, but I wrote based on “how I” read your post. Unfortunately, we can only reply by what we read, without knowing the person. Blessings 19 Likes |

Osoderi:Now, that you're in the UK and somewhat a "saner" clime, learn to ask. Whatever you need, ask. Whatever you're not clear on, ask. As long as you're not tied in some sort of controversial, inhibiting or slavery-esque job situation, feel free to talk to your manager and ask for whatever you need. It's that simple and there's nothing to worry about. |
