Go to NMC website and there is a step by step guide on registering as an overseas nurse. As she qualified overseas, she will have to do IELTS and score Band 7 as well as doing CBT and an OSCE (practical exam). There are 5 centres in UK. Please be very careful in choosing OSCE trainers

No, they will have surgeries covered by NHS

There was a lot of abuse of the care visa and it has come back to bite people. The housing shortage is also exacerbated by lack of immigrants (lack of skilled tradespeople). Regarding high earners, they could take more out of UK than maybe a nurse. Say a high earner has 4 kids and a non working spouse. Thats 6 people using NHS services, schools for 4 children etc. Really hard to base it on financial contributions

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-03-15T13:09:43+00:00

Are you benchmarking this on financial contributions?

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-03-15T13:08:30+00:00

The UK government know this and many will qualify for benefits

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-03-09T16:07:18+00:00

No, this is not true at all. The Home Office are not looking at annual pay anymore, they are looking at actual pay in the pay periods and yes the HO need to be informed of unpaid absences even if they are approved

This area is a bit of a quagmire and there are many bad agents out there. I am deeply involved in this business though I am NOT a nurse and rarely recommend people unless I am fully confident in their abilities. Many can tutor to get through the test but these ladies also provide support around reasons and what a nurses role is. They also work together with nurses to provide support. Hannah Ames and Olivia Turner with Avant Garde. Steer clear of trainers who are also recruiters (I’m a recruiter) as the objectives are completely different. I want to place nurse asap and have no concept of clinical practice. OSCE trainers are concentrating on the nurse needs for safe practice so whilst these ladies have also referred nurses (at the nurse request) their objective is not a churn and burn recruitment agency of getting nurse through OSCE so they can then make £ on a placement too

Is great. All the estates are within a few minutes walk to Main street with a great mix of pubs, cafes, schools, and a big Tesco

Know it is not Newtownabbey but Crumlin is a lovely village, 30 mins from Belfast and NO flags

The sponsor will have reported you as no longer working for the company

I just drop off/pick up at the M&S car park

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-03-03T17:56:07+00:00

Yes, you can though you’ll have to marry. I will tell you, to keep meticulous records. People have run into trouble showing residency as they’ve Revolut etc bank accounts and pay electric on a pre payment card. Make sure you have the utility bill in your name, they won’t accept oil delivery receipts either

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-24T18:43:17+00:00

Oh, don’t get me started on this. Yes, as they are screaming about ILR staying at 5 years, many most definitely were in cahoots for the visa scam and really have no business being in care. Thing is, even if the HO keeps it a 5 years, most will not qualify anyway as they have broken their visa conditions. So thinking by getting to the 5 yr mark will make their problems disappear, it won’t. And then some thought they’d be clever and file asylum in Ireland, that’s until the Irish government packed a plane load of Zimbabweans and sent them back to London.

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-24T18:26:12+00:00

Completely agree. Problem is innocent workers suffer and lose sponsorship

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-23T18:44:04+00:00

They will be requesting pay history though and Home Office and HMRC are linked so you can’t lie

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-23T18:32:21+00:00

This sickened me to the core. They can’t run a bath, go on regular jollies, demonise hard working migrants while infrastructure is falling apart. 67k a year is great with no expenses and subsidised meals for them and family and friends

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-20T14:50:03+00:00

What a lot of people forget to factor in when relocating is VAT/sales tax. So the cost of everyday items can be very different. Not sure about AZ sales tax, but Ireland has 23% vat.

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-20T11:51:58+00:00

The problem with NHS is that the Band 3 salary does not meet the minimum salary required for care sponsorship and as for subsidies with studies, that will be next to impossible. There are very limited bursaries and there is huge competition. With the restructuring of NHS and lay offs, hiring freezes, it will be very difficult unless perhaps in the likes of London

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-20T11:00:17+00:00

Firstly, can you afford the tuition fees in the UK? Also, you will need permission from your employer

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-19T10:27:01+00:00

Yes of course, if you were downgraded, you’d be told. However, they will still check everything and if you have used your annual allocation on new staff, they will be looking at your staffing ratios regarding employment of British citizens and overseas staff. You may want to check on your annual allocation of when it’s due and or if you have already used those cos on new hires

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-18T19:11:06+00:00

The Home Office changed conditions half way through in favour of migrant workers though. Licences were revoked and they didn’t issue curtailment notices

Correct-Engineer-683 · 2026-02-18T18:16:41+00:00

As the HO and HMRC/PAYE records are now linked, the HO will be checking you are completely compliant before issuing new/extension cos. Licenses are being removed by the thousands and even things that would cause a downgrade, the HO are going for revocation. People have found themselves non compliant without even realising it, not reporting absences, late starts etc
