    As new immigrants it's not about getting a job that you like, it's about survival, covering bills and trying to settle in. Many if us do jobs that we have never done back home. Once things pick up, you can become more selective about what you want and don't want to do.
    I believe that if a couple (where 1 is a student) are migrating, it is the duty of the non-student spouse to carry the bulk of the weight in terms of bringing in the funds. It is a temporary sacrifice that will benefit the family in the long run. There is no way a student who can only work 20 hours can cover the living expenses plus study and do assignments and exams, and it is unreasonable to expect them to do that.
    Some spouses work 2-3 jobs while the other studies and does their 20 hour job. Once the student spouse has completed studies and things improve then the one who was doing everything can drop all those jobs and just go to a part time job or find 1 job in their industry of choice. It's about teamwork.

    When I relocated here, it was good, although the job aspect wasn’t that great from the beginning. I’m glad I was able to grab a couple and later filter out the stressful ones, and then I finally got something more convenient and less stressful. I thank God for the journey so far. I’m really grateful for my husband because he’s just been my backbone and a great support system. We are so in sink with our future goals and plans and so far, we’ve been doing things well.
    It all boils down to understanding and proper planning.
    Dear Kosi, I wish you and your hubby the very best, as you push through the stages. May you find all that you desire. Amen 🙏 cheers 🥂 sharing in your goodnews soon.

    kosy I personally do not think you need to work. I feel you are too comfortable. whenever I want to watch your video. I can't find any new one. You have all it takes to make money as a content creator. All you have to do. Is to transfer your videos. To Facebook and make double money from one video. I have seen couples. making lots of money and buying houses from just Facebook videos alone
    So, please leave your comfort zone and be consistent.

    Doing care/support was almost the only jobs that could earn you a sponsorship and that was why we gree die.. I remember us screaming that time that you should keep working and stop complaining because it wasn’t easy for us that came with family…racism and hate is the order of the day here so we close our eyes to them because bills full ground….we paid 12k school fees with care jobs and cleared our debts back home… we will keep doing it until we get something better… a week without a job in the Uk for a family is dangerous.

    But the non student spouse should have gotten a care job to supplement your income and then a care sponsorship visa as your husband’s student visa was expiring so that you don’t have to worry about your visa expiring now and it would be easier for him to get a job.
    I don’t think care work is as stressful as factory work or cashier work. But then some people feel that care work is beneath them.

I have given everything I have to my friends and family, and now that I'm here, I cannot afford some of them. I only purchase affordable clothes from places like Primark, Temu, and SHEIN. All this happened because I was listening to all this UA-cam bloggers. I only came with food.
