As long as you mention the contact details of the referee, and make sure that the referee will answer the queries by the local BHC - don't worry about the size of the company !!

Hi, It is true that you will have to show some decent amount in your bank for a EC. I am in no way able to tell you what is the minimum amount required. The idea is for the EC to figure out what your income is, what your expenses are (which can get an idea of from your bank statements), and how much...

Hi Burlagadda,

Seems you are interested in HSMP but not in reading the guidance notes

All documentation MUST be in original. Photocopies are NOT ACCEPTED.


regards

Go through the caseworkers' internal guidance notes, you will find the answers there - to whether you are missing any documents or if you are submitting excessive irrlevant documentation (e.g.- HSC certificate, offer letter, promotion letter etc. etc.).

1)How much time EC normally takes ?? 2)In worst case scenerio, if i am called for EC Interview , how much time it will take?? Call up the nearest VFS office and find out. They will give you the most accurate information. 3)Just in case, if my EC stamping deadline is missed (Highly unlikely), can i ...

Hi paramjit2k and AkashS, Have you read the internal caseworkers' guidance notes ??? One of the reasons you might not be getting answers is that no one might have tried what one of you is trying to do (send in brochures of companies), so there is no way of someone confirming to you whether you are d...

No disrespect, but you are posting questions that are already answered on this forum. This leads the people, who have experience and can guide others, to believe that the newcomers are only interested in being spoon fed - ask questions and get answers !! Not sure if anyone noticed, but the moderator...

Actually if I do not arange any Courier to get the docs back, how the HSMP team sends the documents to applicant? HSMP will send the documents back through regular "airmail". That means it will a standard international postal service (just like you regular post in India). They will post t...

Duplicate post :? :? http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=10631 :roll: Without the letter of reference you will not any points, no matter how hard you try.

Hi Regatta, In today's world, there's hardly anyone who is not a regular user of PC and software, but that is just not enough for HSMP. Many of the applicants from IT background who apply are "experts" in computer related fields and not just "users". Anyways, in HSMP you need to ...

Hi,

Out of curiosity, I called up FedEx and DHL to check if I could open an account with them as a retail customer. As per them, this service is available only to organizations / corporate clients in India.

Sorry to hear that

Read this post - http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=9203, and search the forum for "review". You'll get lot of information and feedback on review experiences.

Just wondering if this "Moorfoot" address is THE ONLY address from where the courier can pickup the documents ?? Or others who have, in the past, arranged for courier pickup were given any address other than the "Moorfoot" also ?? Anyone who got the documents picked up through co...

Root,

People with legal residence permit (like HSMP) in UK can apply for visa of any country at the country's embassy / high commision / consulate in UK.

So don't worry about it.

Giblet,

Keep us posted on progress. This one is a key issue I guess !!

Just a thought - If you have a student visa then you are only allowed to work 20 hours per week (term time) and full-time only during semester breaks / holidays etc. If you state on the VAF 1 form that you are employed, will this not be a problem for you ?? The ECO might question as to why and how y...

If you are applying from India, you will probably need to submit all the documents you submitted for HSMP, not just the approval letter. That's what VFS told me when I had called to check.

Suggest you call up Mumbai VFS office and check before you travel to Mumbai.

Hi, 1. Youcan use wage-slips as one indpendent evidence of past earnings, but bankstatements can be used only for missing pay-slips and not as an independent evidence (as per the guidelines). Also, you need to submit a second independent evidence covering the correct 12 month period, and this need n...

Will this reflect in the payslips and will the employer be ready to certify this "grant" as your salary ?? If so, then I don't see why this shouldn't be part of "earned income".

regards

Can you do that ?? Did you confirm from HSMP team if this is possible ??

BTW, the address remains the same, whether it is an out-country or in-country application.

Buddy,

Wish you had gone through the guidance notes

As long as HO "receives" your application before the day you turn 28, it will be considered as "under 28" application.
