After 10,000 signatures, petitions get a response from the government. After 100,000 signatures, petitions are c...

Re: February 2018 Restricted COS

I see.. well my immigration lawyers are saying cut off was 46 points but some articles online said it was 50.
Just weird and upsetting.

Re: February 2018 Restricted COS

I got refused for a 3rd time. Points were 33 (20 for RMLT + 13 for salary) :(
Employer is willing to do a new RMLT because our current RMLT expires in March.. hoping that April will be successful

February 2018 Restricted COS

Hello all! Just thought I’d start this topic for this month’s allocation. It would be useful to know if you’re applying for a restricted COS: - whether the job is on the shortage occupation list - how many points do you score/salary Good luck everyone! My employer is re applying after being unsucces...

Re: January 2018 Restricted COS

mine is 33 points - no news from employer. Really worried. Did someone really get refused with 55 points this time? I'm confused :(

Re: January 2018 Restricted COS

My employer has re-applied this month. I score 33 points: 20 for RMLT and 13 for salary.
What happened in December seems to be an anomaly. It just doesn't make sense. The minimum points have been 21 for over a year. How can it all of a sudden go up to 55 ?? I just don't understand.

Re: December 2017 Restricted COS

OMG I can't believe the January results!!! Even worse that June 2015.
This is really messed up. With a score of 33 points, I stand no chance. What on earth is happening? 55k is just too high!!!!!

Re: December 2017 Restricted COS

Hello, Where did your HR get the information about the 55 points threshold? We have tried to speak to the Home Office via email and phone and they do not want to disclose the threshold to us. Our immigration lawyers also said that the HO wouldn't do it otherwise businesses will just adjust their sal...

Re: December 2017 Restricted COS

I'm sorry to hear about this. Do you know if your application failed due to not having enough points? Or is it that the RMLT failed? The Home Office is not transparent at all and it's really annoying. I want to find out what the threshold for this month was - it's clearly not 21 points.

Re: December 2017 Restricted COS

also on the government's website, it says: "The November allocation meeting took place on 13 November. All valid applications received by 5 November were successful if they scored at least 21 points". So this means if you score at least 21 points you get a certificate. I don't understand ...

Re: December 2017 Restricted COS

I spoke to someone from the HO over the phone. She said the number of certificates this month was limited as they had a large amount of applicants and allocated certificates to higher salaries first. Also she said that they had technical issues which resulted in them having a low restricted cost to ...

Re: December 2017 Restricted COS

This is all so frustrating. I'm assuming then that everyone will try again next month which will not help.. :( I wonder what was the salary threshold for December. Seems like even people with 37 points overall got rejected. Not sure I stand a chance next month :( Has anyone been able to speak to the...

Restricted CoS rejected today. Hugely disappointing. It said it: "Your application has been refused, as it did not meet the minimum points score for the allocation". However, the RMLT was satisfied and I received 5 points for salary (£25,400 salary). Minimum points for previous months has...

Re: December 2017 Restricted COS

Hi all, Did anyone get a rejection? If so, what was the reason? I confirm that the HO had a technical issue and only started reviewing applications on the 13th. That's what my lawyers said. My application is "under review" since Thursday. Before that, it was "pending". Really hop...
