very good advice,coming to europe with kids can result to you losing the kids to the government,most single mothers dont work because they have to take care of their children.the work in europe is not as easy as those in nigeria.There is no difficult work in nigeria.i dont think any embassy will want to give you visa with 2 kids without enough money.No country wants a liability,unless you have somebody who is rich enough to stand as your sponsor.you have to consider the children,you may not be able to do full time work unless maybe you have sombody to take care of the kids,maybe a partner.You cannt pay rent with a mini job.it may take time for you to integrate into any country.so its always best you go first,then your kids join you.the reunion may take time.so remember in developed country,nothing like aunty or uncle to look after your kids,if you have to do a long hours work,u may leave them to foreigners and teachers to bring them up and they may end up teaching them the wrong thing.Things are not as easy as what people think it is abroad,u have to have a good job to survive or you may need to do several job to survive.its difficult even for people who are single without children ,talkless when you are alone.no government will want to come and take responsibilities for your children because presently most single mothers cost tax payers alot of money










MissRaine69:
i will offer a realistic point of view. Unless your children are below the age of 12 you won’t be able to leave them at home alone, the western world has very different laws regarding children.
1. So you will need to consider your childcare needs - childcare costs vary depending on country.
2. To take the children with you means they will have to enrol them into a school and how will that happen if you have the kids with you? Whom will you leave them at home with?
3. Cost of living. Your job has to be able to cover your living expenses and childcare if needed.
Unless you find a job in the ME where the employers are very generous in terms of benefits of accommodation, paying for utility bills etc
You will have to go alone to pave the way for your children that will be the pragmatic way to approach things.

Help A Single Mum With Ideas

Hi everyone..as the topic states I need advise help and personal assistance too if possible.

I'm a single mum of two little kids and I really wish to start another phase of my life away from Nigeria. I feel it will greatly help I and my kids move on from the past.
I'm not too old to work as I'm in my early 30's. Finance is available though limited to a certain amount.

I would love a situation where I can leave with my kids and not have to come back for them later..somehow, they seem to be my motivation to go on.

With these information, which country do you suggest that will be easy for immigration.
I think Canada would be much better for you. You also need to consider Germany.

It's not easy to survive abroad with two children without a spouse.
Cost baby minders will take all your income.
I will advice you travel without your children first and when you settle, you can come back for them.

Since your course is a science course.. I would advise you go for Canada or New Zealand.

These two countries have a point based immigration programmes that favours graduate professionals that speak Englisch.

The above mentioned countries have alot of advantages. For example, Canada is close to USA while New Zealand is close to Australia. You can move to USA if Canada don't work for you (which i don't pray for such), you can move to the United States to enjoy the diversity and large market.. Likewise in New Zealand, you can relocate to Australia. Australia is the best country for you but their immigration policy has changed. You might give it a trial though

NEW ZEALAND IMMIGRATION PROCESS

CANADA IMMIGRATION PROCESS

Germany is good but i don't want you to go through the tedious process to permanent residency in Germany because it would take some years before you become permanent resident plus you have to learn the language (German)
Also, bear in mind, you need to show about €8,700 in a blocked account in Germany to prove you can sustain yourself till you find a job and if you can't afford that, you need to have a sponsor based in Germany with relationship ties to you or some other european organization funding your stay in Germany.

If your course is in IT or engineering field, you can try job seeker visa

GERMANY JOB SEEKER VISA PROCESS

If you are the type that want to feel at home, like staying in a black dominated place, then South Africa, RWANDA, Botswana, Seychelles, Ivory Coast, Senegal, Namibia, Ghana and Mauritius but mind you, there is no jobs there but you can do business over there.

Lastly, don't pay any agent oh... Most of them are scammer in disguise. Viel Glück smiley

I'm wondering why your post had no likes. You gave out very vital info that a lot of people dont realize.

If you have a good paying job in Nigeria then you are about to play the biggest gamble ever with your life and that of your kids which could either be a win or an irreparable loss.

As someone living outside the shore's of Nigeria, my experiences and challenges within the first 2 years of relocating wasn't such a bumpy ride because I did a comprehensive research of the country before I eventually made my decision to leave for good.

I had my uni-friends in the U.S that where single then and willing to accommodate me until I was able to be on my own which I will forever be grateful for.

It is tough to settle in a foriegn land as an individual let alone coming over with kids with virtually no arrangements of accommodation for a considerable time frame (1-2yrs) before you start gaining some grounds.

No amount of money you travel out of Nigeria with relocation in view as a salary earner will sustain you except if you are going on an already planned vacation.

God forbid you or any of you kids falls ill and you have no medical insurance like here in United States then you will have to pay your medical bill out of pocket with the minimum in most cases being $1500 - $2000 (writing from personal experience) which is a huge drain to your wallet which wasn't envisaged.

Relocating is always better when you are embarking on this adventure alone because there are lots of uncertainties on the way which will almost break you, then imagine exposing your kids to such uncertainties.

Sadly, 3 known close friends of mine back then in Nigeria with high paying jobs relocated with their family to the US and they are now badly broke because getting a job without SSN and a work authorization is pretty hard and it is even harder getting under the table jobs depending on the state where you relocated to.

My advice to you is this, don't gamble by quitting your job and now embark on an adventure you don't know what's on the other side.

First, go on a vacation alone, make your observations first hand and them make an informed decision based on the informations and knowledge gathered during your solo visit.

Best of luck.

My BRO, na only you make sense wella in this post. Illegal immigration is fvcking hard & people keep encouraging others to do so. At the end of the day, all that matters is how much you can save while working. That you are abroad and snaping pictures for IG dont really tell the true picture.

Biko we gaz linkup abeg!

This message is for the single mum that wants to relocate.

The first thing you need to do is get a job in the country you want to relocate to, then apply for work permit/work visa...with that, you will enjoy your new life easily.

You relocated the wrong way

A family I know just relocated the right way. The lady applied for nursing job from Nigeria. She was employed after all the usual exchanges, etc. The company applied for work permit for the family.. wife husband and kids in Nigeria, and they were given.

Now tell me, will the family have any issues enjoying the relocation? Absolutely not!

So, OP, if you want to relocate, relocate the right way so that you can enjoy the fun of your relocation.

My take!

UK is a no no for now until they change their immigration policies. I'm sure you know that you will be required to return to Nigeria after your study and u might have to process your UK student visa for PhD from Nigeria. Asides that, it's going to be quite difficult to secure a visa for your wife and kids especially when the plan is for them to depend on you. From the foregoing, the plans are not sustainable. I I will advise you to consider neighboring countries with friendlier immigration policies: countries like Ireland and Switzerland are better alternatives.

So, OP, if you want to relocate, relocate the right way so that you can enjoy the fun of your relocation.

My take!

Kindly point out to me where I started that I relocated the wrong way? My relocation was hazard free because of due diligence which I stated that I never had a bumpy ride and I also shared an experience of 3 different families I know of that had good paying jobs back in Nigeria then before relocating and they still haven't found their bearing till this moment.

People's experiences differ and there can never be a universal experience for everyone which is why we need to learn from other people's experiences so as to plan wisely and then make an informed decision.

Kindly read what I stated earlier again and make corrections on misrepresentations of what I stated.

The scenario you stated above has been happening for decades but sadly, not everyone secures a job from organizations that hires them and then go ahead to process a work permit which now enables them to have an SSN like in United States.

Do you have an idea of of hundred of thousands of professionals from all over the world trying to relocate through such a process? Many apply but few are lucky to get by and if it was as easy as you stated above because of one lucky family you know then Nigeria would have been empty by now because all professionals would have left a long time ago.

The scenario you mentioned above is one of the legitimate ways people do try to apply and see if they will be among the fortunate few they will get hired just like the same way millions of people play the then US Visa lottery which also is a legitimate means through which one can relocate but how many people out of the millions that applied are that lucky?

We ain't arguing about the legitimate means of relocating rather my advice is for the OP to apply due diligence and then make an informed knowledge based decision.

Thanks.
