Hello house , pls I need help with information on how to pay online for a new Nigerian passport for my new baby. I have tried using my credit card and all but the payment have been rejected. I want to pay online so I can get a date to travel down to the Nigeria high commission in london. I’m based in one of the British islands. I will appreciate a feedback from anybody familiar with the London high commission. |

Go to Manage your Credit Card - Register your credit card and fill in the details. Photo ID and Bank Statement needs to be uploaded. It will get rejected if your bank statement doesn't include the last 4 of the 16 digits so you need to scan your card and erase the first 12 digits. This needs to be on the same page as your statement. Then select 'No' since u no dey do multiple payments. Crappy system but there you go obalala:

There’s special marriage and ordinary marriage. You should apply for special marriage as your intended is based abroad. The fee is 35k then you have to pay some extra charges off receipt. See attached. Hope this helps. femiart: 4 Likes

Hello, please whats type of visa can you recommend I apply? my intention is to study there but i dont want a situation where I will have to come back immediately after the study years... am hoping to apply for work visa(Tier 2) but i don't have a job ready for me there and my education level is just secondary school, though I will try to get an agent to make more enquiry, but i thought i should ask you that are already there... I have a relative there though but we ain't family and I dont want to go through him, atleast he would have spent more than 10years there.. Though if its necessary to go through him and that it will make the approval my visa more considerable, I will surely contact him. But I need your recommendations and guard, additionaly, can standard visitor be turned to permanent residency after 10years? Thanks, I will be expecting from you. |

Betwindaily: The Bolded part refers. Since cost is not a problem, I assume you have 30 Billion in the account yes? You can apply to any University. Do your undergraduate. Then immediately go for your Masters (or straight to PhD Depending on your undergrad results). As soon as you finish those, you could apply for an Entrepreneur Visa. I hope this helps? 1 Like |

LagosismyHome: Hello all and thanks for the advice. My spouse is a British Citizen, we have two kids who are also citizens but I am on the spousal dependent visa. Due to the business I run in Nigeria, I have to go back home often so yes I am at risk of staying over the 180 days cumulative. Is this a requirement for spouses of citizens? Also where can i find information on putting together my application for renewal. Could anyone direct me to the relevant site on Nairaland? God bless |

Hello house Just a quick question about personal loans and ILR. I'm just a few months in the UK. want to apply for an HSBC personal loan of between 10-15k so as to settle some issues back home. The interest rate is about 3.3% which I think is relatively fair. Also, I may choose to pay back the loan within 1-5 years which I don't think would be an issue. My main worry is whether it would affect my ILR application in 5 years time. Also, from practical examples, how likely am I to get it seeing that I've just recently arrived Uk? I had called the banks customer care and they went through my profile and said I should be able to get it. Any opinion? |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by nomad26: 12:43pm On May 05, 2019 |
It shouldn't affect your ILR application. Bank loan has nothing to do with Immigration. One thing to note sha is that just because they told you 3.3% doesn't mean that they will offer you that rate. It is only after you apply, that they will tell you the true rate. Last year, I applied for HSBC loan of 10k after seeing the same 3.3% on their website, however they offered me a rate of 10.5% even though I have a good credit score and had been in the UK just over a year at the time. I told them no thanks and instead got a Barclays 0% credit card (balance transfer and purchases) for 28months with 11k credit limit. jedisco: 3 Likes |

nomad26: That's interesting... Never thought of that. And I was already making plans.. The thing is that I need the bulk sum. Do you know any bank that offers good true rates for new entrants? Also switching to another bank just after two months may not avail me such opportunity as yours. Also, I heard it goes into your record once you apply (even if its rejected) and thus may affect your credit rating in the future. 1 Like |
Re: Living In The Uk/life As A UK Immigrant by nomad26: 3:14pm On May 05, 2019 |
No I don't know any bank that offers such. However not every search affects your credit score. Try your current bank first, they may be able to give you the exact rate, based on how you manage your account, without running a hard credit check (affects credit score) first. LLoyds and Barclays do a soft search (doesn't affect credit score) when you fill out their eligibility checker and they will tell you the true rate but it is not likely to be a low rate. Wait for others to chip in, you will get more info as I have only attempted to get a loan once. jedisco: 1 Like |
