Lemme try speak like Lexusgs430 ... The rule dey face you for front like face-me-I-face-you na Ok, in my normal way [Extract] www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa/your-partner-and-children If your partner or child is applying at a different time to you, they’ll only need to prove they have enough money to support themselves if they have been in the UK for less than 1 year. - You've been in the UK on the Skilled Worker route, the applicable rule is in your attached. - You child has been in the UK for ONE year. In your case, born in the UK. NB: As I understand it, the ONE year is counted from day and month. It is not just year. [Scenario] Born in the UK 01 Mar 2022. Applying for dependent skilled worker visa on 19 Jan 2023: one year in the UK NOT satisfied So, your child should have been born by 18 Jan 2022. (PS: seems Tier 2 is here to stick for years to come! - Skilled Worker Visa) NB: This is not a binding advisory as contemplated in law Chijiuba: 1 Like 1 Share

semmyk: Thanks for your response. But just a bit confused. My child isn't up to a year. He is 6 months old. Does that then mean I have to provide evidence of support (my statement-28 day rule) since he doesn't meet that condition of been in the UK for 1 year? PS: sorry Skilled Worker Visa. |

SOS! SOS! I am in a very big dilemma, I am trying to switch from student visa to scale up visa. I have the COS but whenever I enter the COS number, it says I should enter a valid COS number and won’t let me proceed any further. I then proceeded to click on apply without COS and then fill out the form. Can I use the apply without COS number and then upload the COS as part of supporting documents? Is this a safe way to go about it? I can’t risk a refusal and I have very few days left on my brp |

Hi everyone , I need your candid advice. My wife just finished her exam in one of her course Sustainable Operation Management (SOM) in GCU , Scotland. She got 11/25 in her course work and the exam is 75marks. She needs 39 marks to get the pass mark of 50. Majority of her mate complaints of the time allocated to the exam and also the exam didn't mirror what was given in the mock. However because of her low mark in course work and the reasons given above , she is now considering to go for the option of 'Fit to Sit' and it has to me done within 48hrs of writing her exam . This will give her opportunity to write the exam fresh not as a resit . Please advise. Thanks |

rowon: She will need at least medical evidence to back this up. Eg. Letter from a GP confirming she saw a doctor before she took the exam or she has underlying medical issues that affected her performance. She can also claim mental health 2 Likes |

Please is it true that NHS COS is only for medical personnel and from band 5 upward? Got an offer with a trust but the hr told me that they can't sponsor whereas the advert stated they would sponsor. It's an IT role. Secondly, will I pay for ihs again if i want to switch from graduate visa to tier 2? |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 2) by Nobody: 3:01pm On Jan 18, 2023 |
babajeje123: Boils down to each Trust and their policies but yes, generally, Band 5 is the benchmark. There's no law that mandates as such (apart from salary standards) so there are exceptions: I've seen Band 4 and even a couple of band 3 roles advertised with sponsorship possibility. The determining factor will be how desperate they are, ultimately. In your case I'd say depending on how soon you need a sponsored role; maybe take that one and apply for others in a higher band with sponsorship. Alternative is to reject and find another now. 1 Like |

Good evening Seniors, Is there anyone here who can accommodate me and my wife for 7 days in Manchester. I'll be landing Manchester on Jan 31st. P.S: I just need this accommodation for this period of time as we plan to embark on aggressive house hunting once we touch down Manchester. I don't mind paying something little for the gesture. |

Dear House Bosses and Elders: Please give me your thoughts and suggestions on this. In Nigeria, I own an ICT company that has been in operation for 15 years. In 2010, my company formed a partnership with a UK-based ICT firm, and we served as their Nigerian representative until early 2022, when the contract was terminated (the UK company moved into oil and gas). We completed transactions totaling more than 600,000 GBP over the course of our 12-year partnership; all transactions, including international bank transfers, are documented. This UK company arranged my first UK trip in 2013 for business meetings and training, and I have visited the UK more than 12 times since then for business meetings, training, and vacations. Prior to moving to the UK with my family last year on a Tier 4 student visa, my wife the ( student), I was on my second two-year visit visa. My company formed a new partnership with another UK-based ICT firm late last year. Here's my question: is there any other type of visa I can or am qualified for besides the PSW (through wife Tier 4) and Tier 2 visas? Please amiable senior nairalander, I need your input on this. @Lexusgs430 @Mamatukwas @dupyshoo @koonbey @Semmyk @Hustla @LagosismyHome @Amarathripple0 Thank You. |

Entrepreneur visa appears to be close to what you should look at but you would need to have an investment of £50k on grand Another option is the Global tech talent visa and company relocation visa (or something close to that) businessnow: 1 Like |

Scanning through, you should, on face value, be a prime candidate for Global Talent Visa (Digital Technology) - www.gov.uk/global-talent-digital-technology Your solutions and/or products development in the last five years will be of importance though. Alternatively, as last resort, explore the start-up visa route. NB: this is totally different from scale up visa NB: it is non renewable and doesn't count towards ILR The Global Talent however counts towards ILR (3 or 5 yrs!!!) and you can even be an entrepreneur!!! (AKA self-employed) You may want to engage the folks at Bincom. They are in the UK and 9ja. - https://blog.bincom.net/emigr8/ Incidentally, they just had an open session yester night. https://mobile.twitter.com/BincomDevcenter/status/1615755685194498049 [Disclosure] I'm related to one of the founders. businessnow:[UPDATED] Noticed Bigtt76 has already suggested Global Talent. Though still referred to as Global Tech talent visa, the current official reference is Global Talent Visa. You have the Digital Technology route (as suggested and applicable in your case). There are also the Academic/Researcher route (which I've posted on last year) and there's the Arts and Culture route (seemly not the option for you). NB: the Entrepreneur visa route is closed to new applicant. However, you may want to explore the Innovator visa route (the successor to Entrepreneur visa) So, if you've got £50k in the kitty, you're good to go for Innovator visa. You just need to come up with a biz idea and get endorsed. PS: not sure. Alternatively , you might become a financial partner to your current UK collaborator as a full fledged Director in good standing. 4 Likes |
