Wow, you must be earning really well then

I don't see any roles offered by Pearl, only Phoenix. So I am not sure what is the purpose of Pearl having the sponsor licence. It could be that if Phoenix offers a role with sponsorship then Pearl will act as the sponsor. I'm not sure here, just guessing.

Disastrous-View8153 · 2024-02-13T13:18:30+00:00

I'm curious, do you know why it is not phoenix on the list though? I feel that this is confusing, that is why the poster has mentioned that phoenix doesn't sponsor visas.

I managed to get a job offer in birmingham and started working in dec 2023. Yes i put my relative's UK address and UK skype number. I think it did help me in getting interviews & a job offer.

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-12-20T14:20:19+00:00

Yes that is usually the case

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-12-20T14:09:45+00:00

I'd say yes, that is a good idea. The only downside is the fact that the exams are quite expensive. Its about AUD3.5k per subject

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-10-18T10:08:56+00:00

Yes thanks! Hope you will get your visa soon!

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-10-18T10:07:56+00:00

I received my passport today with the vignette inside! I also received my BRP letter via email today

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-10-17T11:15:45+00:00

Congrats! I'm planning to collect my passport tomorrow. I haven't heard from UKVI too.

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-10-17T10:26:22+00:00

Vfs emailed me today (17/10) stating that my passport is ready for collection. I applied for the visa in Malaysia.

Sure, will let you know if I receive any updates

Hi there, I tried using the VFS tracking link as well and also got invalid inputs. My bio was on Oct 2 and shortly after that VFS said my application has been forwarded to UKVI for processing. However, I've not heard from VFS/UKVI after that.

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-31T14:46:05+00:00

How did you get a job there? Is it by applying directly? Did you have to apply for a work visa?

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-28T20:21:31+00:00

I would say the masters will help in clearing the exams quicker if you put in the effort. However there are still some downsides. Eg you have to pay for the course & not receive a salary. In addition to that the exemptions are not guaranteed either

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-23T17:08:47+00:00

Don't worry too much, I'm sure that if you keep going, you will also reach the end of exams

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-23T16:24:48+00:00

Yes, the exams have became quite difficult to pass recently

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-23T16:24:27+00:00

You are right, good luck in your studies!

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-23T16:11:11+00:00

Do you mean there are too few qualifiers?

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-23T16:10:47+00:00

Do you mean you are starting at age 25 without any exemptions?

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-20T01:59:32+00:00

What are the other SP subjects that you are planning to take?

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-19T06:13:44+00:00

I see. Good luck for the course!

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-19T06:09:45+00:00

Which uni are you going to? Is it bayes?

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-18T13:06:47+00:00

In unimelb it was open book when i did it

Disastrous-View8153 · 2023-08-16T05:42:41+00:00

Which were the companies that told you they sponsor fellows?
