Please has anybody renewed their passport recently and had to produce LG certificate of Indigeneship? I have appointment with them in a couple of weeks and I dont think I can meet this requirement.

Should I just stay back at home and not lose money for not working and also waste time going to that hellhole.

Good day everyone, please I was going through my things and I found out that my expired passport with no valid visa was no where to be found but I got my renewed passport which I did last year with me. Should I be worried? ☹️☹️☹️

Anglo-saxon, Anglo-Celt, Oyinbo, White, "Native" British, not of Nigerian descent.

Take your pick. It wasn't intended to be a political point over who is or is not British.



A lot of young people are mad at the Tories and aren't turning conservative because they have nothing to conserve. The Tories have focused more and more on pensions, meanwhile young people have had to deal with soaring house prices keeping them out of the housing market.

In 1993 the average house price was £56,000 and the average salary was £17,784. Therefore, it would take also 3.1 times the average salary to buy the average house.

In 2023 (figures from 2022), house affordability took another turn for the worse as the average house price rose to £280,000 and the average salary had only risen to £33,000. Therefore, it would take 8.5 times the average salary to buy the average house.

Right and wrong do not have colors. I am not sure why you needed to state that?

A word of advice for people seeking cheap vehicle insurance.......

Avoid using agents, it would always end up in tears........😭😭😭

You would lose your money + have a CIFAS marker on your credit report + if you're unlucky to get stopped by the police, you would appear before a magistrate........

Abeg chief, any way to confirm the authenticity of your insurance? Got mine through a broker. Tesco is the insurer and I'm able to log into thier site to view my policy. Does this make it genuine?

I just received this sad news guys.
Letter of refusal for my mom’s visa.
Please what can I do?
I felt they are comparing the Nigerian economy to the YK economy. The way the money was converted to pounds is so annoying

Yes definitely, you just need to pay a monthly membership fee which depends on your annual salary:

Yes. When you apply for the code you will be asked for your NI and passport details to determine your eligibility.

There's nothing wrong with stating his background if he wants to though, especially as it's within the context of the conversation.

I ,an adult cis woman,have never suffered any effect ,bad or good, from the existence of Trans women. Why are you looking at people in the restroom? I literally don't care. How have they affected your life personally? Not hearsay o, personally from encountering one


When evil comes knocking on your neighbour's door, if you do not speak up, when it's done, it will move to your door.

There are issues you don't need to be personally affected before you speak up for or against especially societal issues.

I can tell you for free that those fighting for increased minimum wage in Nigeria do not currently earn minimum wage and may never earn it in their lifetime.

I'm not calling anything evil here, this is an analogy. Trans is a societal issue, there are solid points for or against it and should not be based on personal encounter. After all, personal encounter (good or bad) shouldn't represent the general trans community. Just like one person commit crime and you accuse the entire tribe.

Hi Everyone,

Please I need your input I just got my NHS COS which cover my dependants. Before getting the COS I and my wife switched to graduate visa this month when my student visa expired on the 7th June 2024.I could not apply for my children due to the high cost of IHS.

The question now is how can I apply for my children whose current visa has expired on the 7th June 2024 with my new NHS COS?

Please I need your guidance.

What is the job occupation code on the COS?

So after many years of being on this thread, NO ONE! Not a single person, knows Justwise personally and can come and tell us if he’s okay? We should be ashamed of ourselves kiss

I find myself randomly hoping he’s okay. He’s never disappeared this long before.


I appreciate you for showing concerns, i'm fine and doing well.

I had issues with my account and it took longer than necessary to resolve because of communication issue.
