Hi, We are in a bit of a situation and could use some advice. My wife had applied for her ILR on super-priority service and submitted biometrics on Oct 26th hoping to get the decision soon as we had to travel to India in a short space of time. Unfortunately the decision got delayed and we eventually...
Hi all, I have a question regarding the English and degree qualification documentation for ILR. I was asked by my immigration adviser for the degree verification certificate from NARIC/Ecctis as my education was outside UK. My question is, should I get one? Because I've been granted my tier 2 visa w...
Hi, My wife is in her maternity leave and her company is paying her full salary during maternity. My understanding is that there is a rule for the company to give her a minimum pay (SMP) but there is no restriction for the company if they want to give her full pay and is called Enhanced maternity pa...
Hi Bhadresh, As far as i know, the visa sticker on passport is only to come to UK and collect BRP. It would be helpful if you could let me know how did you proceed here as I am in a similar situation. I had sent my passport and BRP to DVLA. And now Royal mail and DVLA both say that they are not sure...
Hi, There was a HO visit to my sponsor's company few months back. Now they have sent a letter informing about few discrepancies and the company sponsor licence has been suspended.

Hi, I had got a CoS from my employer for upto 5 years. But since I did not have plans to stay for that long, I thought of applying for a Tier 2 General visa upto 3 years( as the fees was double for more than 3 years). So, I decided to fill up the form for myself and my wife and submitted the same co...
Hi gajang, Thanks for your reply. I checked the add or amend sponsor notes section from a gov uk document. Can you give me more details about this sponsor note. As I understand, after the CoS is assigned to me, my sponsor can add notes before I use the CoS in my visa application correct? So my spons...
Hi, I am in UK on a Tier 2 ICT dependant visa and I am moving to a Tier 2 General (Restricted CoS) visa. My sponsor has unknowingly unchecked the maintenance by sponsor option while applying for my CoS. Now I need to show a minimum balance for me and my wife. Neither my UK account nor my Indian bank...
Hi Frontier Mole/manci, My wife decided to quit the job as she was asked to travel back, because we wanted to continue to stay here for a longer time. Today was her last working day here and her HR has told her that she needs to travel back within 10 days. I want to know if it is as per UKBA rules o...
Thanks a lot for your reply manci. I just got the news from my HR that the HO has rejected the CoS application as the job was not sufficiently advertised when I was recruited. I think my company will now have to advertise the job again and apply for a restricted CoS after the 28 day period. My wife ...

Hi, My employer has applied for my CoS, I have a couple of questions. Are there any chances of it getting rejected? How long does it usually take for me to get the CoS? I want to apply for my visa as soon as i get my CoS. My wife is still working for her employer with the CoS assigned to her. What h...
Hi, I did figure out the process where in my company has to provide me a CoS and I will have to go back and re-apply for entry clearance. Hope my understanding is correct. But I still have one question, I have joined my company very recently less than 2 months back, do they still need to do a new Re...
