Hi, what is the cost to live in UK for a single guy, wanting to live in a small appartment/studio in London/"very near London", as well as the food/public transportation costs ? Just an average. :shock:
[quote="ppron747"] I doubt that there would be any, would there? Although Bermuda is a British Overseas Territory, its immigration legislation is entirely separate from that of the UK. The only possibility that comes to mind is to naturalise as a British Overseas Territories citizen, and then to fol...
Does anybody know about any privileges that a person can get for immigrations purposes to UK if that persons was living on a work permit in Bermud a. ?
Hi, I got the following email that describes a process to go to US and start work under H1B Visa for computer consultants . I need to know if this sounds like a legal process. According to the H1B arrangements I cannot start work sooner than next October . I was advised that I “can” come to US befor...
Sorry guys , no offence. I am coming next year :) Maybe... need to see what the TAXes will be like and check some Cost of living Guides ( Do you have any ? )
That s what i am talkin about. There are set schemes that help them migrate. Forget the story if you are on your own. Took me 5 years to realize it. And now it doesnt matter.
[quote="first2last4"][quote="2uk"] Because of this also the Work Permit scheme hadn’t work . Except for Indians. ( I am not sure why , maybe because of their High-tech-knowledge image ) . [/quote] It not the image.... Its the reality.[/quote] So how do they ( indians ) find work ? Variant 1: Persona...
Thanks for confirming this, i think i should call them for 100 % though. Reading the rules made me experience a heart-attack level disappointment and the most joyful moment of my dealings with the UK immigration laws. I want to be an IT contractor UK. They operate under a Limited Company. As it seem...
According to the rules a national of Bulgaria and Romania can freely come to UK after 1 Jan and set himself in Business. ( Say under a Limited Company )
Only after that he is required to obtain a Registration Certificate using the BR1 Form.
UK is England , Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland . Does it mean that all Immigration rules that apply to the UK - such as info at workingintheuk.gov.uk - actually apply for all these countries.
Hello , I am about to send my University diploma to NARIC for evaluation. I was wondering if I should send my professional certificates as well - MCSE / CCNA . Quote from NARIC about evaluation of certificates: "If you wish to work in a specific trade or occupation in the UK send only certificates t...
quote from a workpermit.com article on the new 5 Tier system : " Some organisations which lobbied the government during the consultation for the system argue that a block on low-skilled workers from outside the EU will lead to exploitation and exacerbate illegal migration. For instance, two sectors ...
Hello Does anybody know roughly the processing times for WP and Business Visa given that I employ the fastest (extra pay) procedure available? I am also willing to use workpermit.com services. This is an important issue since most of the IT jobs advertised are either ASAP / Urgent and so on. Thank Y...
Yeah, looks like I’ve been over 4 years in misbelief that I can legally secure a highly-skilled IT job via the WP process. However, as it turns out, this seems to be impossible. And it makes sense – why in the hell hire a foreign individual when you can hire locally?? So, It’s sad that these WP / Bu...
I'd stick my neck out here and say it's Indian software companies offering WP's to Indians since 99% of the WP folks here seem to be South Asian. Not saying they're all dodgy of course! Steve Do You mean there are so many Indian companies that have established themselves in UK ?!? Btw , I read some...
I am just curious , do you know even 1 “visa national” who was granted a WP. How these guys managed to do that ? I am asking because I talked to a recruitment agent in the UK , and after having asked that same question , she told me : “No, I never heard such a case. This is probably because, employe...
I just learned that Immgr. Authorities in Bulgaria grant “Visitor” visa for English-Languge courses in UK that last 3 – 6 months. Before that , a student visa was issued but because there was some sort of abuse to this system , they decided to issue “Visitor” visa for these persons. Anybody knows wh...
EU productivity from my understanding can't compete against the Chinese primarily due to labour costs - there is no hiding that such costs will drop with 'cheaper' labour from the new EU states. I think that fresh “visa “ immigrants are paid less only in the first 1 – 2 years. Then, the employer re...
According to www.workingintheuk.gov.uk ,to switch from a student to a WP , you need to "have obtained a degree level qualification" What is considered as a degree level qualification? Would they consider a 3 month English-course for a degree level qualification ? Quote from www.workingintheuk.gov.uk...
