Not easy at all.

She started applying for jobs since January this year and was getting rejected. Until finally she got the job offer. She didn't use any agent and didn't pay any money before she was given the CoS.

The company only provided her with CoS. They directed her to a UK Solicitor who facilitated her other documents needed and she paid about £2000 for that service to the Solicitor (immigration lawyer)


So she searched for job for over 8months and was rejected by many establishments there.

People are just milking the system.... the thing is so straightforward that why does a solicitor need to be in the process and then charge a whopping £2000..... na wa ... my comment is against the lawyer not to your sister

Congrats to her .

U know Employers are not supposed to charge people to sponsor them which usually cost the employer somethings.....but there's a grey area with visa apllication and travel logistics which UKVI ddnt make compulsory for the employer to handle or pay for...

so employers now using the processing/ the fees of the "independent solicitor" they provide to codedly charge employee to cover the fees and more they paid for employing international applicants


Nigeria or europe.....exploitation na english word

No.

Your port with vignette is what you require. Advisable to keep your tb test results in your carry-on bag.

Know why you are coming in, where you are going to stay, and be confident.

That's a screenshot of part of our conversation. Sorry, she didn't state who gave her the solicitor.

The Company gave her sure entry with the CoS. The CoS was given to her before she started other processes.

You won't just get CoS and go like that, I think there are some things immigration lawyers would put in place.

Thanks a lot *My guy doesn’t find this helpful* he said he needs to know if BTA is needed&if he has to know the employers address offhand as it’s long and hard to cram.Can he declare he’s renting house himself,his employer is not willing to provide accommodation for him...

Wisdom7400:


Pls when did u apply?

23rd Nov

Sponsor did not tick maintenance on CoS. On visa application form that was submitted the address for accommodation plan is Employer'address.

Is this ok?

Otherwise If it will be an issue--the dependants docs have not been ed yet can one attach an email sent tto agent about a particular property to rent? Just to show that it's been worked on.

Pls what has been the experience for those who have ed through this route. Thank you

You would have to submit your own personal statement if maintenance wasn't ticked.
Rent aint that so important.

With a COS, gov.uk and your docs you don't need no solicitor, there is nothing to put in place.

Please I have some questions to ask if you are applying for health care visa from Nigeria.

How long does it take IOM to get TB result ready after the test? It used to be ready same day.

Do you any letter or document to show your sponsor is covering your maintenance fund or only the COS is ok?

Thanks.

Tb result is same day if u all is well...unless there are too many pple and they couldnt give all result before night fall...then u may have to go back the next day

If ur employer did not provide the document where he ticked yes for mainenance...mayb u should ask ur employer if maintenance covers ur dependants.....

If u have it ... it...if you dont dont bother....UKVi has access to it anyway
