Hello All,

I have gone through the guidance notes and there is no mention of copies of documents submitted. I would like to know if I should make copies of original documents submitted or if this is done by the Home office.

thanks a lot.

Thanks Stedman for your response. Please is there anyone else that has issued a letter of invitation on their initial two year visa with all success.

Thanks a lot

I would like to find out if a HSMP holder on her initial 2 year visa can issue a letter of invitation to a family member for a visit to the Uk.

Thanks

Chinedu,

I hope ur tax clearance and the income U claim to have earned show the same amounts as they wld pick the amounts on the tax clearance over that on the supplied salary statement. I hope U understand this. All the best.

Hi, quite a while, if you guys remember in November 2005 the ECO at the BHC Lagos refused me EC which i subsquently appealed. I won the appeal, and i have been issued an initial 2yr visa. I went thru different huddles to get to this stage. Will be coming in next month. I want to thank every board me...

This is not accepted by HSMP. U need ur original degree certificate for HSMP. I however do not know if Ur school is accredited by NARIC - guess U shld check the NARIC site.

All the best

Yodi,
many many many congratulations to U. I am very happy for U. I wish U all the very best and more in the UK.

I will PM U.

U need not worry abt qualifications - I applied and claimed points for education but did not include my degree certificate. I however had sufficient points from the other sections and I was given approval. The programme requires a minimum of 65points. The sections from which the scores should come f...

No U dont have to send ur documents with the review. Just state clearly in your review why U think they are wrong and if possible quote relevant sections of the guidance notes to back up ur claims.

All the very best.

You can send your review by email and fax. At least send it thru two means and send another mail or call to confirm receipt.

Dear Jama,

I sent my application for review in June 2005 too and got my approval in August. I suggest U give them a call for an update on your application. Then U can start considering re-application if necessary.

It is well. All the best.

state your gross income.

Dear Yodi,

Have u gotten ur appeal number?

Dear John et all,

I would like to find out how effective the appeal process is. the turn around time etc.

Has any other HSMP candidate appealed against their entry clearance decision. Please tell us the outcome.

Thanks

Dear Bunto, I am so happy for U. Congrats on your EC approval. It is indeed the Lord's doing. I wish U all the best and U shall eat the good of that land Amen. Concerning buying winter clothes at least Jackets U can pm me and I will tell U where cause U cant arrive UK in the winter without at least ...

Hello, why did U go for an appeal. You could have simply re-applied for entry clearance as your hsmp approval is not yet expired. Was the approval returned to you after the interview. If it wasnt why dont U try contacting the embassy and asking for it. You can still re-apply for entry clearance as l...

Congrats Iyanu All the very best in ur EC and in the Uk. God is good.

thanks a lot for ur reply. Feel much better already.

Thanks

Dear Modearators,

Kindly advice me. My baby was born in the Uk 2 yrs ago on my visitor's visa. I just got approval for HSMP and will like to apply for them too. I would like to know if my son being born in britain will not affect the entry clearance.

Thank You

I would like to find out if it is possible to apply for EC now for myself and kids and have the kids join me in March next year. Will their EC period have expired or is it only that of the main applicant expires.

Thanks a lot.

Try-one,

Dont really understand. How can U apply for ILR next year. Shldnt U serve out the 3yrs for FLR? Please educate us.

Thanks

I sent mt first review by post and fax. Was a little discouraged by the time I got the negative response so just sent the second review by email to the hsmp address and kept sending mails till it was confirmed received. It took approximately 5 months to get my approval. My first application was sent...

I can authoritatively say that the review process works. My initial application was rejected, my first review was rejected but now my second review has been approved. You have to be able to prove ur case and make the caseworker see reasons why ur application should be reviewed and approved. This is ...
