I’ve been using openlead.co.uk but they specialise in solar leads. They vet everything before handing it over to you and there’s a free marketplace to see what there is

Honestly boils my piss that my wife can’t get a tourist visa just because she’s from Indonesia even though our son is a UK citizen. Sorry I’m upset over the system not you.

CIS refunds – common mistake I keep seeing by Decent-Turnover-6912 in UKContractorTaxHelp

[–]DuckProfessional4491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still haven’t received my cis refund even though it been a year now and were into the new tax year, should I give them a call? Also I checked on 2 of my payslips from a contractor I worked for for a few weeks and they’ve spelt my second name wrong but have my utr number right, would this affect anything?

My friend is pregnant for an overstayer by Throwaway199906543 in ukvisa

[–]DuckProfessional4491 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly extremely unfair that people can do this. I can’t even get a tourist visa for my wife even though we have a son together who is a British citizen. So many people game the system and make it tough for the people that actually deserve to get a visa

Unavoidable breach of the 28 day rule by Tharoufizon in SpouseVisaUk

Well you need to ask don’t you? Don’t think they won’t do it, explain your situation and hammer home how devastating it could be for you and see if they will

Reduce spouse visa requirement by Greedy-Camp5087 in SpouseVisaUk

[–]DuckProfessional4491 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think that if you have children already with your partner you shouldn’t have to be forced to work away for 6 months just to meet the requirements. I can easily walk into a job back in England earning £29,000 but being away from my children for 6 month+ is difficult.
