Hi, pls I would like to know if any of you know of successfull HSMP applicants who applied with the CIMA UK (Chartered Institue of Management Accountants) Qualification under the new scheme.
Any advice would be much appreciated.
Many thanks

Ajani, I read somewhere else in this forum that CIMA was considered as masters and entitled to points. Also, in the HO caseworkers guidance notes of the previous HSMP they had given CIMA as an example for Masters equivalent.

Hi, I had the same problem when I asked CIMA UK to give me a letter stating the course is conducted in english. I think they felt rather insulted by this and refused to give me a letter.I'm not sure what I should do now but feel ridiculous if I have to do IELTS due to this reason

I had the same problem. I contacted CIMA UK asking them if they could get me a letter stating the course was conducted in english and they refused point blank as they said this is a UK examintaion and as the course is conducted ONLY in english they are unable to do so. They also went on to say that ...

Thanks. So does that mean I can send my certificate only without NARIC verification? In the previous HSMP Scheme I was able to find the caseworkers guidance notes and it clearly stated CIMA as a professional qualification. However,I am unable to find these notes under the new HSMP scheme. Also, havi...

I did not qualify under the previous rule as I was earning £39k and did not score any points for the salary. But hopefully will do now

Does anybody know how many points I can claim for CIMA under the new HSMP rule? Do I have to get this assessed by NARIC or any other organization?
Any thoughts would be much appreciated.

Yes, I am aware of that. W.E.F 19th June, the employer can apply for my WP whilst I am in the UK. I will need to go back to change my visa status prior to my current visa expiers because of switching. My question is whether I will be eligible for the Intra-Company Transfer (Tier 1) Work Permit as th...
