My guess is that the caseworkers are divided into teams which look at applications from certain regions or countries. From the feedback on this forum, it seems like number of applications from certain countries like US, Europe etc. are less and hence get to a caseworker desk much faster than applica...

Some people refuse to understand logic :x Couldn't you both have used PM to exchange contact details ?? rather than cluttering this discussion thread with "unrelated" information :cry: :cry: A "highly skilled" potential applicant advertising his cell no. and official email addres...
Hi Shazlee, Your documents did not reach HO on 12-Oct., it was just that you received a reference no. on 11/12-Oct.

Called up my credit card company to check if a charge has been made, and they said not yet, but did confirm that there was indeed an authorization request from Work Permits BUT (this is interesting and also cause of concern) it was only fo...
Hi, Apologies for asking the same question again, but is there anyone whose application (through courier) has been signed for by a person with initials "S.Cott." at the time of receipt at Sheffield office?? This info. - as to who received your application and signed the receipt - can be se...
Hi Guys, Can anyone who's sent the application through courier confirm if the person who's signed for the receipt of their application is "S. COTT." The FedEx website shows that my pack was signed for by this person at the reception/front desk. The reason I am asking this is because FedEx ...
Duplicate post :cry: :cry: Unfortunately, the guidance notes and internal caseworker notes do not say anything about earnings from two countries at the same time, so not sure if somebody will be able to confirm this for sure, UNLESS one has had a similar experience and has been successful with HSMP ...
Doesn't say anything on the guidance notes, so I assume one is free to use whatever ink one feels like (Pink maybe :lol: :lol: ). I have given up writing with a pen since long (thanks to technology), so I just filled it electronically and took a printout. I must say this is the worst form I have eve...

Thanks Windmill, Yup, I am going to use their services. Frank replied to my email today (wasn't expecting a response so soon, I had emailed him only yesterday). He said there's no reason why he couldn't pick the package from HO and courier it to me anywhere in the world, as long as I can provide him...

Actually, I have written an email to MBE Sheffield today enquiring if they would be ready to pickup the package (on a date w...
Hi All, The HSMP guidance document mentions - " If you are in the UK within a category other than one of those listed at paragraph 39, you may still make an HSMP application. However, even if this is approved, your leave to remain application is likely to fall for refusal. Those in the UK who d...
There will definitely be a signature of your Employer of Authorized Person. Only Stamp will not work anywhere. I meant a letter of reference on the comapny letter headed paper, duly signed by the HR manager (name & designation printed). Does this need a company seal also ?? For salary slips, if...
