I just check my spam box and to my surprise I got a mail from them since October 31st requesting for my tb certificate which I ed during my application. I have forwarded it to them but my fear now is that I was given 10 working days to send the tb certificate. Hope have not sent it late

Oops, it's still within the time frame, I already got a collection mail yesterday thou still waiting for Brp mail.

Thanks!!!

Good morning everyone. Please I need help seriously!
I first did standard Ielts earlier in oct and I got to find out I’m supposed to have done the ukvi. I ed for the ukvi Ielts. And getting to the 13th day which was on Monday, I received a mail that my result was withheld. And there’s nothing they can do except to wait for 3 months for them to finish investigating. And they advised i don’t for another exam until they finish with their investigations.

Now, I’m supposed to apply for the work visa this month end. Please do I go ahead and for alternative test like the PSI?
Please I need advise urgently. I’m very devastated with the whole turnout. Thanks

I did my interview last week Thursday, after the micro soft teams video interview, they took my number and promise to reach out to be before one week but am yet to hear from them, please should I send them a reminder mail or wait? The trust is in greater Manchester.

You do not need port for the child born in the uk. Pls the UK birth certificate is all that is needed. When filling the form write that the child’s id is only birth certificate

I live in London sha. Just that I'm not ready for the stress of NIN, port capturing and all.
I just hate any process that involves naija since I jakpa (smiles)

Can anyone help with how much a work visa and health fee is now?

Good morning advanceDNA and everyone here. My wife got a job offer to work as HCA in the UK and I've read the introductory page of this thread and jumped to page 400 to start reading about other people's testimonies, questions, their processes and POE experience but I'd like to ask a few questions as we are about to start our application.

1. What's the first thing we need to do, we've not seen a step by step guide on how to start the application.

2. I know the POF has to be in the before we start our application, can I use my own for the POF as it has better inflow and outflow or do we need to transfer the money to the MA?

3. Can we do upfront TB tests or everything has to be after we set up an ?

4. The PCC expires fast, when is it advisable we do it?

5. Which of the medical test centres is the best for people going this route, I know affordability is relative but we want a cheap one that won't stress us, I saw $150 quoted for IOM on the UK government website while Q-Life was quoted in naira but I'd wait to hear from experienced people here.

6. The MA would be writing UKVI IELTS does she need to submit her credentials through ECCTIS again?

Thank you all in anticipation of a prompt response.

Also thanks to Uzland for this thread and to everyone keeping this thread alive. We were focusing on Canada but this one came and we have to take it.

I have not decided yet on what i want to do.

U have a job....do u have COS?? ..if yes....next thing is to apply for visa if u have all the required documents..apply below

https://apply-to-visit-or-stay-in-the-uk.homeoffice.gov.uk/sort/start/skilled_worker_out_uk

If u don't have the documents required for visa application .... go and get them.....No step by step sir.....get them in any step u like.....just get them and get the correct one.......and apply through the link above...

Married couples need to prove to ukvi their marriage is real: u must give ukvi ur personal chat with ur wife, proof of address u both live together, pictures ...

If u have kids together : u need to get NPC issued birth certificate .....if u have it but it was not issued around the time u birthed them ... U will need further proof of their age ....like hospital records or hospital issued birth certificate or school records showing their age.

If u have kids from another relationship: that's a different Pandora's box entirely ...(I don't have strength)

Answers to your question
2: u can use hers or yours...just make sure the money required is complete for the number of applicants and obey the atleast 28days rule before applying.....I.e if the money is not already in your ...because it's a small amount..many pple have it already in their ...if that's ur case..u dont need to wait for another 28days.

if u don't have the money....put the money needed in the ... .the will be ready in 28days or more from which ever day u put it.

3... ur TB test should be ready before end of 28days so u can apply once 28days is complete.. and if your is already set..just go get the rest document .

4..u said u have a job offer already ...do u have COS .....if not... wait for COS before u get all documents that can expire.... sometimes COS is not issued quickly ..

5...use anyone of the tb test center u like ... the 150$ from IOM is an old quote that was in use before APC destroyed this nation ....IOm charges around 59k for TB test(last I checked) Book an appointment, confirm ur appointment, pay , and go for test

6 No....
