John, Thanks a lot. I have another question... How do u convince the ECO that you dont need a job offer for HSMP. why would they refuse one cos theres no job offer.. my husband was told they are not interested in his efforts ..the lady dint even look at the emails and correspondences he had...she in...
John

thanks
john, thanks a lot this is quite enlighteing. so if you have 3 counting rooms you can accomodate 5 people...meaning im cool. Now my issue is.. how do i prove the 3 rooms or 4 rooms in my case are counting rooms. i provided..council tax documents and mortage documnets... The council tax only shows th...
sorry chess/moderators John, I would appreciate if you can point me to where this is stated. also what can be defined as small accomodation/over crowded accomodation. In my case.... my sister inlaw has 2 children 5 and 7 and their house has 3 bedrooms..anyway we call such houses(duplexes here) spaci...
My dear it is divine favour.. I enjoin you to go on fasting and prayer
the door God has shut no ECO can close.. its either they leave the way or they flow with the plan jeje.
I think th eguy is using a Uk lawyer though i dont know the details of dat.
i think i have to say the ECOs in naija have gone (oops) just heard they refused a chartered accountant 2 weeks ago cos he dint have a job offer and the place he said he wanted to stay was too small to contain him... the guy had 40,000 pounds sterling in his account..... are they bersek or what.. wi...
i thinnk you should get in touch with ur consultant and find out what did he write as ur work experience.. as in which is the latest ..... but i really dont think theres any harm in a career change.. u already pursuing the cert.. so u can as well say that...besides u have a degree in education. u kn...
my dear cheeky is the understatement of the year. the questions...long story really. but she eventually asked teh normal questions(after all her rantings) cant remember the order now but here goes - if we had both resigned - when we intend to travel -if we would give notice at work - have we started...
hey, you wont believe what happened. The EC lady must have been a dearly beloved or prejudiced against the HSMP and must hate bankers cos she actually said so she was downright rude unplesant and said so many derogatory remarks.. she really must be frustrated with the immigration system... she actua...
rao,
so what did you tell them u will do if you dont find a job???
and for Gods sake how do they expect everyone to remember how to convert binary to decimal... a lot of people have to think about it be4 doing it really.. especially when u last did such a conversion 15years ago!!!
I followed a friends advice on adjusting my cv to Uk format...and I actually put in my would be contact no in UK. Just yesterday I replied to some adds..now my sister has received a few calls on my behalf and im still in nigeria. Though I intend to call the agents back today...but my EC isnt ready y...
sanya,
the letter i used was sent from my sisterinlaw thru email.
it had her workplace no...mobile no
home no and home address.
she also sent her mortagge details and copy of her british passport.
buntosanya,
u submit by courier and u get it back after 3-4 weeks.
if they want you to come for interview, theyinclude a slip to invite you..stating the date and time and if u nee dto bring any additional docs apart from what u submitted intially
yinka, Thanks a lot this is quite extensive and will deifintely help others preparing for EC. You are a very thorough person. Anyway, I am sure i donot need additional docs in my case... I think i coevered the bases just as u did but not as thorough cos mine is a bit more straightforward i think. So...
I will agree that the HSMP team do not reason or think logicaly when reviewing applications. its as if they are programmed to think like robots. Or maybe the way things are done in UK are extremely different from other countries. Its very true that in some countries, wifes dont work.and so may not h...
anyone one with any hints on what to expect at the EC interview should please share.
I have an interview next 2 weeks
would appreciate contributions from nigerians
hi, sorry about the refusal.. but it seems the high commission both in abuja and lagos have recently taken to refusing student visas.. and they want to reduce giving interviews. rather they refuse or grant the visa outright. Well my experience is similar to yours, i was refused a student visa becaus...
hi marie b,
thanks again for the update.
i was hoping that HSBC will open a basic account with a provisional license and passport without asking for utility bills.
how can I get utility bills without an apartement ....
its just goes round and round i guess.
amhilde, tru - mine took 13 weeks. but i have 2 friends that submitted late july and they have received their decision and they both applied from nigeria. one was approved the other refused... on work experience: he was scored 60 points overall... it seems the time frame has somewhat reduced to abou...
