@TheOfficialKiwi said:
"And if you’re in the Uk, you don’t know what God has done for you, some of us are still in Nigeria."
@P23 Updates said:
"You’re actually quite fortunate to have come with a Certificate of Sponsorship (COS). In the past, many people came on visit visas, which made things very difficult, they had to stay under the radar, couldn’t work proper jobs, and weren’t even able to open bank accounts. Over the past few years, the UK government has made it much easier for people to come on COS and study visas, allowing them to bring their families."
@Cisco said:
"Omo people looking for COS are really going through a lot in this Uk on a low. I pray God see them through cause guy I can’t just imagine myself overthinking and doing job I don’t like because of COS."
@Micheal Adewale said:
"To be honest. You can’t imagine how you can get cos in Scotland. I have some few homes to share but i cant for privacy and security reasons."
