You have a very positive attitude towards life. I appreciate very much about your immigration planning. You set a very good example to those who are going to immigrate and those who just keep complaining. Your high calibre and optimistic attitude make you a great step forward in UK. I bless you every success in UK Wish you every success
I am hong konger currently retired and living in Canada. With your positive, down to earth, ready to adapt to new environment and positive outlook, I am sure that you'd succeed wherever you go! I wish you and your husband the best! 香港人，加油! 一定無問題。
@@EveryLittleThingofYoung My experience (in north America) is settle down and learn a skillset or two, to provide another way out in case of being laid off.
Madam, you have made an excellent programme, a very, very good presentation, clearly summarised relevant numerical items, "capabilities and objectives", "guiding principles"... You have shown your intellectual abilities, and planned the strategy ahead... very impressive character. I wish you all the best.
Your main achievement in the past 7 months is that you have managed to gain a foothold here with both you & your husband obtaining full time employment. It's a good start, considering you have only been here for such short space of time. Well done. Now keep a good record of your payslip & P60 (which you will get in March) for the next 5 years, you will need it to demonstrate to the Home Office when time comes that you have a regular & steady income in the past 5 years & has been financially self sufficient since your arrival. Many BNO people don't release that getting a residency visa is quite different from applying to the naturalisation process. There is no guarantee that your naturalisation process will be successful in 5 years time as it is a separate process from granting you a residency visa under the HK BNO programme. Though financially independent & self sufficient is a key consideration for a successful naturalisation application! So keep a clean record on your employment contracts & income slips. Owing your own home with good saving will also help your application in 5 years time!
One extra point on your car insurance. Given your car is only worth £1200, you might consider taking 3rd party insurance only. Your car insurance is expensive at the moment due to lack of driving history in the UK & it will take you & your husband a few years (5 years) to build up the no claim bonus to get it down. Due to the value of your car, in the event of any accident, it is more likely that your insurance will compensate you with cash rather than fixing the car for you. They would simply send you a cheque for around £900 to £1000 to settle the damage which isn't much. Obviously, you will get nothing if you are on 3rd party insurance only & if it is also proven that the accident is your fault. However whether it is worth switching from comprehensive to 3rd party will depend on the extent of saving between the 2 policies - 3rd party only & comprehensive.
well done. We moved to New Zealand from hk over 20 years ago and we only bring less than HK$ 100k from start. Now my 24 years old daughter got a permanent job and me and my wife are retired and living good and peaceful for the rest of my life.
@@Daniel_missingu as a bno holder, this is an absolute discrimination subjected to immigration control when bno visa has been refused……feel very frustrated……😔
Very nice sharing which will give a basic concept for those don't know much about UK. You guys were well prepared, so you both can stay strong during the difficult time. Keep it up. Seems it is my first time to watch your channel, but it's not bad. It is quite realistic and objective. I will share this video to my friends as well. BYW, I had been here for more than 1 year. I don't record my expenses now😆. I believe you both can manage to have good living here. Nice to know you.
