Wow four months and then you moved over. That was really quick.I know some people who took almost as long as a year to get cleared. Thank you for sharing your experience. Are you currently working with your SA company or moved over to a UK one?
Absolutely, it was super quick for us, from my partner getting his job to our visa approval taking just 4 working days- I am a big believer in divine timing so I guess it was just the right time for us :) I work for a company that is fully remote so I didn't need to change jobs :) You are so welcome, hope it helped you if you are in the process.
@@shwethasuredin definitely,please send us updates as your insights can help others who are also considering moving. Also how has your driving experience in the UK been?
@@kameesha1807 Sure, I share more frequent shorter videos on my socials (IG/Tiktok/RU-vidshorts) but I think breaking this video into bitesized content will also be useful :) Luckily its only a matter of swopping our license here and not redoing a whole test- but to be honest we haven't driven yet- we are really enjoying using the public transport and don't really see a need for a car just yet- also parking is a nightmare!
I'm from DR Congo n my wife is South African we want also relocate to UK n I want have an agency to help as my wife is pregnant n we have an other child
Thank you somuch for this video. I am also busy with the process. Thank you for sharing the documents required for the partner for the visa. How are you doing now 😊😊
Yay! I am so glad this helped- feel free to reach out if you have any specific questions which I can help with. We are doing well, really enjoying life in the UK and I am certain you will too!✨
I have been watching videos for a long time, but never got all this information. Thank you so much. I do have a few questions though. Can I apply for the passport, take the TB test and do the police clearance before actually getting a job? What would you suggest?
Hi there! I’m so glad it’s been helpful! So it would really depend if you can come over on any other visa besides the Skilled Worker Visa (SWV) which we came over on ( we don’t have any ancestry in the UK and we weren’t eligible for any other visa.) In the case that the SWV is your only option, you will need to have accepted a job with a recognised sponsor, before starting any process. You would need a sponsor certificate in order to start booking for your tests and your application. In the case you are eligible for any other visa it may be possible to come over without having a job first but best would be to check here> www.gov.uk/check-uk-visa ✨
So this is dependent on the type of visa you come over on. If its a SWV, the company that employees you can give you a visa for 3 (with option to renew) or 5 years, after which you can start applying for your indefinite leave to remain.
Hi there. Depends on what your stay is for- if it’s for tourism purpose then yes your aunt will need to give you an invite letter to share with the embassy :)
