why not wait for the moderators to comment or check up the working inthe uk site for the switching rules. I know people change from student to WP... i wonder why not from student dependant!

From your response it seems you are yet to receive your documents. Like mwazir said earlier, yuo have waited way too long to start searching for your documents. I will advise you to call the number I pasted. you may have to hit redial as much as 20-30 times be4 it goes thru but it definitely will. W...

But john, After an appeal is allowed.... isnt the BHC supposed to just issue the visa straight if they dont have any problems with the appellate authorities decision. Why should they request a nother interview at this stage. shouldnt the EC manager have had a review long before now??? Its sounds fun...

chess thats my worry?
since its mentioned in black and white.
The ECO's may decide to use their discretions????

Ifeoma,
Please clarify... did you receive your documents back without a decision letter or you have not received your documents back at all.

This will help in deciding what to advice you.
Also hsmp direct lines are tel 01142076020, fax 01142076021

Nothing was really mentioned about HSMP.
Do we assume that EC for new applicants will be for 2 years and will be renewable for another 3 years??

This is changing the goal post at the end of the game.

this is just 3 weeks notice. Not fair at all.

Is this necessary.

I think people change their careers all the time.

hi 1.HND isnt recognised as a graduate degree. also your lasu transcript will not be accepted for MSC. you need your certificate. I know LASU is giving people a lot of hell in getting the certs. your professional certs dont count towards this criteria. So for education.. you will get no points. sorr...

you got thru eventually.
you should expect a decision within a few days or 1 week at most.
give them till next week and call them up again to find out the status of the application.
You could be lucky to be told the decision over the phone.

that number is perpetually busy but its reachable. I got thru to that no 3 different times on monday. and i have at many different times in the last 1 month. But it requires persistence, a times hitting redial 30 times be4 getting lucky isnt uncommon. so keep trying. They do reply emails after about...

Quite a no of people on here have gone for reviews and got approved but they are not many. I would advice to go for another application..these days you get a decision within a week or 2 of receipt, except your application is picked for independent verification which makes it longer. So if you can af...

smit Its a long story. Ok you are congratulating both of us.. :) Actually we both applied for the approval initially and we both got approved but he went for EC for the two of us, by the time we got the refusal decision ...my hsmp approval had expired. So now I have reapplied and got a second approv...

I believe its written there that the earnings part will be scaled with respect to different countries earning capabilities as it is presently under the hsmp scheme. If that is done maybe asian/african countries will be able to apply. That age looks funny though.. so you get no points if you are over...

You can call them on 441142076020 and ask the customer service rep whther your application has been received and the reference name
YOu will need to give them your name, date of birth and nationality.

Hello everyone. This is to tell everyone that I got the approval the second time. I dint utilise the first one. So its very possible to apply a second time and get the approval again. Still waiting for my docs though, its been 2.5 weeks they dispatched it. Hope they are not lost :shock: Timeline HSM...

please check the posts dedicated to extension.. you should find the infor you require there

sharat, WHAT EXACTLY IS YOUR POINT?? because I just dont get it........... sometimes statistics dont tell the whole true story. People emigrate for different reasons whether for the wrong ones... thats not for you to say. At least the people on this forum are doing it legally and not illegally. Besi...

Thanks everyone for your contributions. Please note that Im not the principal applicant..my husband is. I wanted to go along with kayalamis suggestion to wait till after i put to bed but my husband insisted we all do the medicals and postpone the xray. we have done just dat. i hope the baby comes b4...

Proof of age is compulsory if you are applying under 28 category.

If it really is true that 35% of HSMP visa holders returned back to their home countries within 7 months, this to me shows that there is something going wrong somewhere with the HSMP Scheme, considering that all applicants declared that they intended to make the UK their main home! And we haven't e...
