If you've got 12 months visa, and if you are without a job (or offer) in UK - this could spell trouble for you. At the time of exension, you need to show last 8 months earning (of the 12 months) and there's a min. requirement too. So you MUST start earning as soon as you reach UK. :cry: If you have ...
Indefinite leave to remain for a work permit holder 134. Indefinite leave to remain may be granted, on application, to a person admitted as a work permit holder provided: (i) he has spent a continuous period of 5 years in the United Kingdom in this capacity; and (ii) he has met the requirements of ...
How does it matter if you are travelling to Denmark?? You haven't submitted your passport !!! Travel, enjoy, and come back while your HSMP application is being processed.
It depends where you apply from and the documentation you provide to support your EC application. It seems that if you apply for FLR (within UK) you get a 2 yr. visa, but if you apply from any BHC overseas (out-country applicant), it depends on the evidence you provide to support your application. A...
Don't worry .. go ahead with your trip to India. Your current visa (WP dependent) will not become unvalid until the date of its expiry or until HO endorses any new visa, which ever is earlier. HSMP approval doesn't necessary mean that you "acquire" HSMP visa. You will need to return to Ind...
The guidelines say that the initial visa / EC might be for a max. of 2 years. Doesn't necessarily mean that it MUST be 2 years and no less. It all depends on the documents (in my opinion - availability of funds) that you provide with your EC application. Search the forum and you'll find many applica...
A quick decision I must admit. You are lucky to get the decision so fast !!
An acquaintance of mine sent in his application around 15th October and is still waiting for a caseworker to be assigned !!
Akash, This one is too funny :lol: :lol:. Hey, we all might ask you for consultation fee now !! :wink: The answer is yes !! Doesn't it say "you score boxes" :idea: :idea: That is how you tell them what you are claiming. If you look closely, the extreme right colum on the form says "HO...
Depends on what your definition of "cost effective" is. Travelodge is definitely one of the cheapest places available.
I am not sure if hostel acco. will satisfy an ECO, but this site seems to offer online bookings for hostel acco. in London - http://www.hostellondon.com/
Though I have no prior experience on this, here is what I think: Which contact do case worker's use...the one which is maintained on the letter head...or we need to provide some reference where they can contact the employer... If you can provide the direct contact numbers of the referees, mention th...
Rohan, Check with HO / BHC India whether you can actually do that .... apply for HSMP in India in the follwoing circumstances:- 1. You have made an application as in-country, 2. You are currently residing in UK, and 3. You have a valid UK visa. Better to get clarification beforehand rather than turn...

Write to them (email) or call them up. Email address and phone no. given in the guidance notes or you can search the forum for these two (email & phone).
In case of employed applicants, CA letter might be accepted if it is from your company CA. :( Didn't I use the word "MIGHT" !! That means "maybe" or "maybe not", and I am not sure about it. This is what I found in the caseworkers' guidelines - ---- Letter from Accounta...
Actually there are about 100 Pgs so it is very difficult to get the correct Q-A. That's the reason peoples repeat the questions... So you want the seniors to do it (search and provide answers) for you :D :D :D Try the search facility, that's what it is for - to save your time. People who read throu...
Hi Daisy, I am not sure if I (or others) will be able to confirm whether your role as Lecturer can be regarded as a senior level experience. Only someone with similar background and who has been successful in HSMP can say for sure. The caseworker guidelines do mention the following regarding senior ...
You need to provide evidence of what you HAVE ALREADY EARNED in the 12 months prior to your HSMP application. In my opinion therefore, 1. Appointment letter will be of no value. 2. Letter from department manager can work if it spells out the details of salary earned in the last 12 months. 3. Similar...
Obviously I missed specifying the duties & job responsibilities for my role in India, as I thought that the offer letter would cover that part. Can someone please tell me the best way to approach this. Option 1: Go for review, provide a detail list of jobs and responsibilities handled both in I...
