[quote author=Ollyjimmy post=119874666][/quote] You get half of Whatever you paid for a year’s IHS. If your payment is two years, you will need to apply in instalments of 6 months. So, when applying for the refund, you are required to submit your 6 months payslip |

@OP, you indicated... I made a mistake ... I informed them I saw an hammer with someone I can't really describe except that the person is bald. Is this mistake - you being uneconomical with the truth about your statement - you developing cold feet on your continue communal living or relationship in the community - you're just scare of Court processes. As Phyl123 as indicated, you also need to look at the common good (#beneficence) [Witness invite] Quick one. What you received, is it indicating request to appear in police station or does it say citation letter to appear in Court or it is framed as Subponea (which I doubt at this stage) [Contempt / subponea] At this stage, you might not be found in contempt of court yet: you however stand the risk of being slammed "obstruction of justice"!!!. Rather, ordinarily you get subpoenaed. When subpoenaed, failure to attend comes with legal consequences. phyl123: You're within your right to express your concern about your safety, threats/risk to your life and family. As it stands, kindly request your "witness care officer", the police in charge of the case that you require protection - you are apprehensive - require Witness protection, in similitude to Chapter 4 of Part 2 of the Serious Organised Crime and Police Act 2005 - on the basis that you fear for your life, your stay in the neighbourhood, and what might become of you in the UK (as you might be targeted) - these hinge on your general safety is reasonably believed to be at risk in view of your evidence vis-a-vis the nature of the franca, and the possible criminal conduct of the alleged perpetrator and allies. - further, that you require witness anonymity order To assist you, read more on witnessing - www.gov.uk/going-to-court-victim-witness - www.cps.gov.uk/legal-guidance/witness-protection-and-anonymity - www.copfs.gov.uk/the-justice-process/attending-court/guide-for-victims-and-witnesses/ justwise: ukay2: Schoolhike:Things to note. As a witness, the goal of the defendant, (during cross-examination), is to make you come across as an unreliable witness whose version lacks credence. On the converse, the prosecutor, while leading you evidence-in-chief, is to portray you as a credible witness whose version is more probable. Irrespective, what you need to do is to keep things simple. Say only what you know, as in what you saw and observed. Don't, repeat do not try to form opinion or smart by one and half. If you are unsure, simply say so along the line, - I do not know - I did not see that - I did not observe that - that is not what I saw or heard or observed - unfortunately, I can't speak for the defendant, I can only speak for my myself based on what I saw, heard, observed. I have no opinion. - ... ... List goes on and on. In-btw, don't be scare to say - I stand by my earlier statement - what I narrated earlier is what it is. I have no opinion. Kindly note I am not an admitted solicitor/attorney nor barrister/advocate. I've only been privileged to hand some labour matters. Well, as a witness, you don't want to come across me during cross-examination. #ruthless. God help you if you don't end up cursing under your breath 6 Likes |

Please can I be too forward and shoot you a mail? I also have experience from naija and have CAMS certification. I don't know if you can help me speak to your friend. I just need guidance from someone who's been on that contract journey. I am looking at going the contract way rather than full time and would appreciate pointers from someone who's been there and done it. I'm still studying though but I wanna start planning for the reality of life after studies and I sincerely don't wanna shortchange myself if I can explore and get something better.

Hello Seniors, Kindly help to understand how this works in the UK: My wife and me will be going to Machester come September via Tier 4 visa. I am the main applicant and my wife will be the dependant. If my wife(as a dependant) secures a job that can offer her tier 2 visa while i am still a student, does it automatically secures me now as her dependant to remain in the UK under her tier 2 visa? Please how does this aspect work according to the UK rules? Please help out. Thanks |

Viruses: Wrong on both counts. 1. You MUST go to court if you receive a witness summons. A summons endorsed by the magistrate/judge is not an invitation, however nicely worded - it's an order of court and failure to comply has legal consequences e.g. a contempt charge. 2. This is nonsensical, highly dangerous advice. If you've given a witness statement to the police, deliberately lying to contradict it in court puts you at risk of committing the criminal offence of perjury. Plus why would you want to do that and possibly jeopardise someone's chance of getting justice or seeing a criminal punished? Wouldn't you want people to testify if you were a victim? There are provisions to help people who feel threatened before, during or after acting as a witness. Report to the police Victim Support section if there's anything that worries you. In this case, the OP hasn't even cited any threat beyond cold feet. FFS na, you people. Apparently everyone wants 'saner clime' but few are willing to lift a single finger in civic duty. 7 Likes |

HenryG: It secures your status as her dependent, yes, but you must apply separately for that visa - perhaps after finishing your course, unless you want to forgo school and the T4 visa. 1 Like 1 Share |
