If you switch your Lloyds or main account all your payments and details are switched too. I wouldnt advise it though. I aslo do not knownif Monzo accounts are accepted. If you want to chop switch miney you may want to open a Metro and or VirginMoney, you can then be switching those ones. You credit score may be slightly impacted. America001: |

I'm planning to apply for a dependent visa. My partner (F) is the MA and she's a Masters student. Has anyone applied since the recent requirement changes with a positive response? And if you don't mind what are the docs you submitted? |

Godsonice: There in no answer to this question. Nobody gives you a job because you have a degree, be it cyber security or English literature. They give you a job because you can demonstrate that you have the key skills and strength that they require. Even Graduate roles, will require you to go through a rigorous screening process, because it's not an experience hire, hence they needed to test your strength and skillsets to be convinced that you have what it takes to be successful in the role. 5 Likes |

Lexusgs430: I donโt understand what you mean by this and what was wrong from what I asked , can I go earlier or it must be 15 minutes to the 11 am that is my time. I never go for UK visa biometric before so Iโm asking to know what best to do. Because for my IOM TB test time 11 am but I went there by 9 am and was allowed to go inside for my test, maybe that will also be the case for visa biometrics |

MrMash: Mine took 20 days. I received the email on day 20. The mail stated that my brp would be delivered within 7 days. But the brp came 2 days after I got the 'successful' email. You can call the Home Office though. But they wouldn't do much. Will only ask that you wait it out. If it's a Health and Care Worker Visa, it will take 3 weeks max. If it's a skilled worker visa it might take more than 3 weeks. Don't worry, it will come. 2 Likes |

Jeff0983: Your questions initially didn't make any sense. You asked what time will you go for Biometrics without stating, what the Biometrics is for and where. Is it Biometrics for Passport Renewal Biometrics for Schegen visa, Canadian or US visa from inside the UK Or UK visa Biometrics in Nigeria. 1 Like |

Godsonice: I understand your perspective,. However, I don't believe any experience is irrelevant. What ever you did in Nigeria had skills that are transferable to roles in the UK. After NYSC in Nigeria, I opened a Barber shop . I learnt alot about customer service, bookkeeping, resources management, business development and how to manage irate customers. These skills eventually helped to get a good paying job later. I operated the salon for just 4 months . No experience or skill is irrelevant, I am sure you even have some skills you don't know are valuable. Just look inward and find the right professional keyword for your skills and find roles that would require them. My opinion. 8 Likes |

I think we have to be careful about repeating right wing talking points. Give me an example of a country where this is happening currently. The right wing is no place for people of colour because if they win, you with your ebony skin which you cannot take off, will be the first target. We live well with Muslims in Nigeria( Yorubaland) why is it different in the UK? Viruses: 3 Likes |

Lexusgs430: I think itโs you who lack commonsense, well itโs not common, maybe I should have specified the particular biometrics I was talking about but if at that my question wasnโt lacking commonsense and if you thought it was, you should have just ignored it instead of showing yourself.

No, he wouldnt be doing himself any favors arriving hours early for a UK appointment. Unless he likes standing around in the cold. Arrive no earlier than 30 minutes for anything UK. If you are late you are on your own though Lexusgs430: |

Lexusgs430:No. when Ikeja gave me a schedule, I noticed they strictly work by schedules given. If heโs given a 12pm schedule, he should get 15 minutes before. Going there by 9am is waste of time and energy. Btw, no one asks a silly question, only foolish people think there are silly questions 3 Likes |

missjekyll: How do you define right-wing? The right-wing are the conservatives and most Africans are by default conservatives. What do you then mean that the right-wing is no place for people of color? Have you tried to take a test to see if you are left or right leaning ? |
