You can change your visa status and then inform your employer. Also reassure your employer that you do not intend to move on and you are committed to stay with them. Hi, I work in a bank and on a tier-2 ict visa. I will be changing my visa to a tier-1 visa next month. Do I need to notify my HR depar...

Go to your nearest branch and ask them to print off the statement of the relevant month. Also ask them to put stamp(and sign if they do) on it. You can use that statement. Dear Members, One of my bank transaction for salary is missing in the original bank statement. I realized while final check of d...

How would HO know it's your bank statement?

It does have my account number and the bank can sign and stamp it but they cannot print out my name on it .. ! I bank with Natwest.

Thanks !

Deep, I was on WP for first 2 years and then HSMP and then Tier-1. If you have P45 for the first year you can proceed with that. You just need to make sure your P60/P45 are showing continouse employment. Overlap of employment is fine but do not produce combination of P45/P60 which does not shows con...

I am going to apply this friday. I have the bank statements in dot matrix format. Bank logo , bank name and address are shown in the statement. But the contact details of bank is missing. Is it mandatory to show it? Yes. You should adhere to the guidelines. If HO wishes to contact your bank they sh...

Yes. They are same. If you can find your course and category underwhich your MCA qualifies you are fine. MCA can be considered as IT/Computers.

Also check usefull post by ramesh above.

if at the airport on arrival, they only check the authenticity of the visa but does not record the arrival in uk. Then how would ho find how may days i was out of country during my five years while processing the application for ILR. If you say just the entry stamp, some times stapm is not that cle...

HO does hold entry-exit records of any individual travelling in-out via proper channels. I have recently asked for SAR report from HO and can see details of all landing-cards which I submitted at Heathrow while coming back to UK. That's the only way HO can work out any individual's total absent days...

Agree with Ramesh. Make sure you highlight this fact clearly BOLD,UNDERLINE it so that trigger happy caseworkers do not miss it.

If you have atleast P60 of last four years you are fine to go as long as their is not gaps in your work permits. HO will have records of your WP from which they can clearly make out whether or not you were in the country. Make sure to clearly indicate your IN-OUT dates + out-of-UK duration. I had si...

They might ask you to provide Chest X-ray. High BP will not be a problem as people's BP shoot even when they ask simple questions. :-) Got my Tier 1 and planning to travel next month. Just wanted to check something regarding the medical examination at Heathrow. I have high blood pressure and am taki...

Personally i think your chances are very slim to get ILR. But I would still consult a solicitor for the same.

I know a person who had similar case i.e. his employer just forgot to apply for his extension. Strangely he was late by 10 days also. I wonder if you work for the same company. Anyway, he applied through solicitor and received ILR in November2009.

They are efficient as far as application fees are concerned. You should wait and see how long your application take to go through.

I returned to UK last week. I have got ILR and they ask me same questions. Now in my case, questions like "How long I will stay?" is irrelevant. You just have to keep calm and reply their queries.

As per the link, you can get P60 from all your employers provided they are not linked. But P60 and Payslips are considered to be from same source so not sure what will be the second evidence of earnings.

If you were not a joint account holder for more than(or atleast) three months, how are you planning to provide bank statements of the months? Bank statements, when you were not joint account holder, will contain details of your friend "only" and not yours. Hence your application will be tu...

Yes there is difference, one say you took over 5 years to complete the course or course was over 5 year. Another says, you obtained degree 5 years ago.

Not required. Make sure you present your details well. You can use salary explaination template from below link:

They will ask regular questions like: 1. What visa you are on? 2. Why you are entering UK? 3. How long are you planing to stay in UK? 4. What were you doing back in India? 5. What skills you are bring to UK? 6. Are you having enough funds to maintain yourself in UK? 7. Your experience in years etc. ...

Does rejection letter say your qualifaction is older than 5 years or over 5 years? Yes, it did. It's master degree from one of the UK's leading universities. Called UKBA as well and was told qualifications don't expire. Mentioned all these in my admin review, but still got rejected. No reason was gi...

Agree with Sushil. Nobody have time to harrass you at airport. They are doing their job and you should make sure you reply all their queries with patience and provide all information they seek.

Did PBS calculator granted you points for qualification? Is there anyone who got Tier 1/HSMP visa with a degree older than 5 years? I recently applied for Tier 1 visa from China and got rejected for the reason that my master degree is over 5 years, so 35 points were not awarded. (Qualification secti...

After receiving the visa, can we withdraw the maintiainence funds or do we need to keep them in the account till we reach UK.

You can withdraw.

I went to India in Feb 2006 and apply for new WP from there. I have got ILR last december. My solicitor told me that to stay eligible for ILR you have to submit your new application within 28 day of your visa expiry.Mine was clearly the similar case. In your case, you have already received approval(...
