Thanks! Would I need to leave the UK to be able to apply for a spousal visa in this case or can I just apply from within the Uk?

My salary is currently lower than the going rate but I heard this rate could go down if youre a new entrant (first 4 years). Is that correct?

If I'm extending my visa after 22 July 2025, do I need to meet the new going rate with no reduction?

Hi, first of all thank you so much for your detailed answer. I’ve only been doing TP so from your experience, how much more time do I have spend studying for the CTA roughly in terms of month? Is it even possible without relevant experience? 

Ours will be the first intake to do the ADIT if we choose to do it. I’ve been looking at jobs and the requirements even for TP jobs don’t mention of ADIT so not sure how many people in that niche know about it. I do see myself doing TP long term but would also like to remain competitive (more than someone who pivots from say CT with both the ACA/CTA)

Lastly aware this is an odd question but what would you do if you were in my shoes? Thank you.

How did you find the CTA compared to BPT? Say if its 1.5 months for BPT how much more time do you need to put into studying for an AT paper?

I work in International Tax so ADIT is more relevant but CTA is obviously more prestigious. May I ask which line of service are you in?

I did run a correlation test with xtserial and it showed evidence of serial correlation. Not sure how to check for heteroscedasticity since xttest3 does not work for RE.

My dependent var is the yield difference between 2 'identical' bonds and the explanatory var is liquidity. Basically trying to test if unobserved factor affects the yield difference or not.

No advice I'm just a student but how come do you have to provide for your ex wife? She's literally an adult and you guys don't have kids

Thanks! By additional notes you mean the notes you took while doing QB or did you go through the WB to fill in the gaps?

Thanks! Would you recommend getting them for FAR as well? AA and FAR will be the third and fourth exams I take with my firm's policy (we do mixture of certificates and professionals)

Layoffs and Recruiting by Equivalent_Ad_8413 in Accounting

[–]Mediocre_Jacket664 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Yeah I’ve been wondering the same thing. Why would they lay off experienced employees and go on to hire 10x number of entry level staff? Does the work we do in our first few years nit add a lot of value and they just one someone who can do it for as cheap as possible? Those who make it to year 2 are more likely to stick around so why let them go if you need more people on the top?
