hi you have not stated the year when you applied but the foll is from a previous guidance note of 03.. “Applications made under HSMP are applications for an immigration status and an adverse decision will be recorded and could be taken into account when considering any subsequent UK immigration ap...
In view of the below, you may like to apply early if you qualify. You will obviously have to consider the risk of getting the visa issued from application date. "The government has also asked the MAC to report on what further changes to the criteria for Tier 1 should be made in 2010/11, given t...
I think all participants who agreed to "make uk your main home.." in the hsmp form will be okay this time... and if not will be able to successfully challenge. This is just nightmare...They promise some thing else while giving HSMP visa..Then keep moving the goal post...They would expect s...
Push, their press release mentions that the implementation date was postponed by six months to july 2011. The rest I am only hoping is the case since transitional arrangements will be on for the period July 2011 to july 2013 and thereafter the existing provisions will be deleted, like I said will ha...
yes it does and also that earned citizenship implementation schedule has been delayed by six months - perhaps just to accomodate the last lot who entered with hsmp in end mid 08 ... will wait and see. [quote="camcan"]vc the document below further gives us further expectation :D .... Not le...
You may be right, its possible HO has changed their position on legitimate expectation. Referring to the research paper 09/47 of 22nd May 09 on the Borders Citizenship and Immigration Bill page 46, following is the relevant text – para 1 The Government’s position is that “a migrant’s only le...
Yes it does mention 5 years.... Had this been the case, HO would just defer the implementation to Nov 11 instead of july 11, I think anyone reading the guidance notes for hsmp issued after the changes in Nov 06 would also have legitimate expectation for settlement. ...........................WAiting...

Hi ! I had a simillar experience at the PEO Croydon last week. very friendly and fast service.... Applied six months before expiry of current hsmp visa and recd the tier 1 valid for 3 years from end of current visa. As long as you dont claim additional points for age, you are okay to apply early. vc
That cant be true, what about post dated EC's. I got approval in March and got EC in Sep valid from dec 07 to Dec 09. Clearly, entry cannot be within 6 months of initial approval!
Guys, here's a response from a prospective employer even after mentioning about HSMP visa. Is this how it works with HSMP ... Any views. Quote : Thank you for your recent application to RM. Unfortunately, RM can only employ people that have the right to live and work in the UK on a permanent basis. ...
Some interesting lines in the command paper (page 24) for Tier 1 - "Tier 1 is a route to settlement.......... we are considering the possibility of allowing the most successful to move directly to settlement after 2 years".
As far as I am aware, once you enter, you have to spend a minimum of 181 days in the Uk in a calender year to be a ord resident. There is no issue on travelling from the UK on business or vacations. Perhaps some of the seniors members could clarify this issue.
Jags, just to buy time to find a job, you could apply for EC in Aug (and request effective date from Oct 07). Thereafter you could enter anytime between Oct 07 to Oct 09. Although timeframe for ILR subsequently will be effected, but you will still make it for the renewal coz its the last 15 months t...
Dear Musafir, The guidance notes mention "Single 12 month period within the 15 months prior to your application". So any break, unfortunately would mean lesse points.
