igbsam:Well I will be quite Frank with u. Those two new entrants are been childish because its too different job. The construction worker failed to understand that long term on construction is not healthy because its stressful. Moreover the care worker should not that care jobs are easier than construction work hence should enjoy more pay. Bottom line is having done the two jobs I would gladly pick care to construction work. Infact I regret doing construction and warehouse job because na them shift my spinal cord when I could earn easy money just on observation with a patient. Averagely I earn over 600£ every week working 4days on 12hour shift as an nhs staff. My advise is let the carer look towards nhs. And for the ops, look at the daft as one cheeky comment. Wage comparison is a normal thing because people always want to earn better but meanwhile health is wealth. U can not pack all the pounds. I rather earn less with less stress than earn more with more stress 7 Likes |

abuhusna1: Again, I ask. You mean if my 10 year old nephew gets a visitor visa to the UK and comes in with his dad. The dad return to Nigeria and leaves the boy with me. 7 years later, when the boy is 17, he can go to ‘regularise’ his status? |

abuhusna1: I hope you realise that there is a "reasonable" test that is also applied to the discretionary application. It is not a point based/ automatic application. The rules state: Discretionary Leave to Remain—Applicable Rules Your child can benefit from the discretionary leave to remain in the UK if: He or she is under 18 years of age. He or she is still in the United Kingdom. He or she has lived continuously in the UK for seven years. It is unreasonable to expect the child to leave the country. When is it Unreasonable to Expect the Child to Leave the United Kingdom? Here are some of the many factors that are considered unreasonable when a child has lived in the UK for seven years and is expected to leave: If there is any significant risk to the health of the child. For example, if they are undergoing treatment for a serious illness or a life-threatening disease, that treatment is not available in their country to which they are returning. If the child has wider family ties in the United Kingdom. Other factors may include: Whether the child has visited or lived in the country (that they are being sent to) previously. Do they have any friendship or family network there? Do they have any cultural ties in that country? Do they understand the culture, have the ability to speak, write and read the language spoken there? Success in the application will depend on how it is represented and fought - the now 17 year old (who is almost an adult) would have lived a large part of their formative years in Nigeria. If they speak the language, have family and cultural ties in Nigeria, etc, then it will be more difficult to convince the case worker that it is unreasonable to expect the 17 year old to be able to reintegrate in Nigeria. Home office might not seek to deport, but they can refuse/frustrate the application and leave him/her in limbo. 4 Likes |

Please does NHS give visa sponsorship for Domestic assistant? Or Can an NHS domestic assistant switch to care assistant in NHS? Please I need answers. Thanks |
Re: Living In The Uk-life Of An Immigrant (part 3) by ReesheesuKnack: 12:29pm On Jan 25 |
Jamesclooney: You may have to (very painfully) call up agents. They can arrange a genuine appointment for you on a day or three -depending on how much you are willing to pay. I speak from (my) experience. I had to (very painfully pay up to £200) to an agency in London last year. Alternatively, book and wait for an appointment in March or April or whenever there is availability. 2 Likes |

Cyberknight:It is happening life and clear. Don’t be overly emotional about it. Thousands of overstayers are milking it. I don’t support this but it is what it is. Until it is banned, it remains the mode of operation of so many people. Join immigration platforms and you would be left speechless. 1 Like |

lavida001: Auto is easier and faster, saves you money, time and energy, no need to plan to drive manual if you plan to buy auto because you will hardly need to drive another person's car. Manual cars are significantly cheaper to buy and with manual license, you can drive auto too. 2 Likes |

hustla:Things are no longer the way they were, it was easy to get part time jobs but not anymore because full time workers are now in abundance so employers prefer them. I used to be an advocate of "come, you will hussle and survive, don't let anybody discourage you", but with the financial burden and emotional stress I have got to bear from students this period, my guy, I won't discourage you o, but I will tell you before you come that you should not count on me. 3 Likes |
