Thanks for your response. So what is the procedure to apply for a resiednce permit for a non eu national? I presume you want to live there because it is central to two work locations. If that is the case, you need to ask your employer if he can arrange a resident permit for border work situation. h...

Employers are ignorant. They may want more than a certain time left on the a visa but that just isn't practical. You can't renew a permit until one month beforehand so if you have a valid visa you can apply with less than one month left. The issue is can you renew your visa or extend it or continue ...

Just on an update on this - Easyjet have come back & said that although it is still the fault of the Dutch authorities (no mention of his residency being out of date this time!!) they have offered - To refund his flight To credit my flight towards another Easyjet flight, as they cannot offer refund...

Umbrella companies do not sponsor people's visa. This is not legal so do not pursue this option.

Hi, my wife got her passport finally today and 2morrow she is travelling. It's been 13 working days since the request. Therefore, if anyone needs to travel urgently, have that in mind, please, and I would suggest that UKBA should write that down in the certificate of application. Also, we tried to ...

So you are proposing that the OP report it lost to the police, then get an emergency passport, and then apply for a new regular passport? That would be one way to do it. If the poster is in such dire straits that would be one option. Or go directly for a new passport and once back in the UK forward...

Financially we have to wait, that is why I am looking at the job route to make it easier for us. sounds fishy to me, its better to wait financially to marry but make you go through more hassle for a visa, suggest you guys rethink this reasoning or I'd believe someone is avoiding marriage There is n...

Republique, I was unsure of what to google in the first place. I would love to have this info since it would mean that my situation is not as dire. Directive, so would I essentially be unable to study until I get the visa (lose the year)? I am already in the school (would they require my visa numbe...

Yeah I'm looking for a student visa. I was essentially asking if I could leave now-ish on just my US passport (also submit my visa documents before I leave) and then come back in 60 days (the amount they say it usually takes) just to get it stamped. I realize this means a ticket back and forth just...

us citizens don't need schengen, you need a student visa for your stay over 90 days

Mulderpf - All I am saying is "if somebody is getting frustrated with recruiters-he has to do more than just sit back and wait for recruiters to do something" Direct recruitment is something which people do not try. It is a very effective mean of getting interviews. Another effective mean of gettin...

or thats the way they handle it, so move on

When you get the calls from the consultants, do you take down their name and numbers and follow up with them or do you just expect them to get back to you? From experience, you have to hound them constantly. Until the point that they have sent you for an interview, you are just another number and a...

honestly the company should know whether it can hire you or not on a uk contact

It doesn't sound right. You were told to pay the fine, at the consulate. They didn't know what you were talking about. I suspect if you had a fine levied, it can only be collected at the Greek border and no other country is going to be alerted to it because I don't see any country paying the other w...

Hi. I am going to apply for Naturalisation on 10th August with my husband and child. In the form, it is asking for any other surname that I have been known in the UK. When I came to the UK, I was married and I was on dependant visa. Then I got divorced and applied to HSMP visa and entered into UK a...

Hi, I'm looking for any advice on this situation. Maybe someone has been through similar? An officer at the agency suggested making a duplicate payment on the day to get us through, and claiming for a refund later on. At a price of £1350 this wasn't an easy decision, but we decided to go ahead. I ...

You should never put your references on your CV. Instead put "References available upon request". That is a wasted of a line. Of course reference are available upon request. Otherwise you would not be a good candidate. There are candidates who refuse reference checks and do not want to supply refer...

I get fed up with the recruiters. There is more nuisance than help in job search. UK job market has become too inefficient. Employers keep complaining that there is not good enough talent while job-seekers struggle to get to interviews. I think direct applications to companies could be worth a try....

It's a minefield doing anything across borders like that, whether it's renting a house, buying goods or paying for any kind of service. You need to find people who've made similar moves and use the services they recommend. Ams. That's sound advice. Find people who have the same job you want and ask...

Please, I need advice on how to appeal. my application was rejected because the acountant belongs Accounting Technicians association. How can I appeal and what can I do again. Please, also explain the ground of the appeal. Thanks Alut the appeal explains the ground, how can we explain the reasoning?

Hi all, I have dual nationality: Canadian and Dutch with valid passports. I currently live in Canada and I am travelling to The Netherlands for 2 weeks this summer for a vacation/job search. Anyone have any ideas on how likely I'd be able to find an English only position and where? My Dutch is limi...
