NotesBeware of emailed job offers for childcare and other similar positions in the UK. These are all frauds.

• Since November 2008, no visas are granted for household workers from outside Europe. Work visas are only granted for highly-skilled positions, most of which require university degrees.

• No legitimate employment agency in the UK requires you to pay them any money. All fees would be paid by the employer.

• No legitimate employment agency in the UK uses a free email address from Yahoo, Gmail, or similar services.

• No legitimate employment agency in the UK uses a telephone number that begins with +4470 (070). These are non-geographic numbers available to anyone in the world.

• No legitimate business requests payment via Western Union.

Why Do We Request A Police Clearance Certificate
Currently the United Kingdom as implemented a new law for recruitment as they discovered that terrorist and those with bad records migrate into the United Kingdom through employment exercise as the easiest means to by pass the immigration stress and carry out their activities here in the country by submitting fake CV compelling employers to process their travel papers.

In other to confirm the eligibility of employee proving that they have no criminal record,not into terrorist act or drug peddling and addiction,the UKBA refers to the employee's countries metropolitan police for records before
approving applicant,only then can we the employer pay and procure for the entire processing of applicants travel papers as well reimburse the expenditure incurred for the obtainment of Police Clearance Certificate (PCC).


APPLYING DIRECTLY TO THE U.K EMBASSIES WORLD-WIDE
it has come to our notice that most applicants prefer to apply directly to the U.K Embassies in their various locations and when they make applications, their Visas are usually denied especially Job applicants from Africa, Asia and the Middle East, When such visa applications are denied, it takes approximately 90 days to re-apply or make a second application and during this time, the Company will not be patient or wait for such an applicant, we usually revoke their offers immediately and recruit some other applicants.

Hence, to ensure that you pass through a hassle free Visa application process to the UK, We have affiliated with the Local Immigration & Visa office here in Scotland, the British Immigration Service. They will assist you with the Visa application, processing of UK Work permit and other relevant Insurance and Travel packages that will be required for your legal entry into the United Kingdom once in possession of Police Clearance Certificate (PCC).

Making an application with the UK BORDER AGENCY guarantees your Visa approval and in a lesser time as compared with applications made directly to the UK Embassies. Once they get all your necessary papers processed, they will fax copies of the same to the UK Embassy in applicants Country of location and such an applicant will be prompted on when to visit the embassy with his/ her passport for the Visa stamp. This is the easiest process for International employees to meet up with Migration Formalities and join us as soon as possible.
