The above response is DEFINITELY for Tier 1(General) New application from India. In order to hide identity of the emailer, I had removed the first lines in email which were following(edited the original post also): Dear Sir/Madam, This is XXXXXX, a Tier 1 new prospective applicant, and I had followi...
Once you get there, there is no way they can force you to work for them only since hsmp or tier 1 is an open visa. So I could see what they are doing and why and it could be very innocent. Agreed, but innocence of this consultancy would also depend on the other clauses of contract related to termin...
This looks atrocious. Did they inform you about: - What type of accommodation will they provide? - How much money will they provide as "other expenses"? Would that include travel money for going to interview locations, ?etc. On the face of it 50K INR caution money is nothing to worry about...
Hi, Here is email response to some queries given by BHC Chennai (have bolded relevant part of replies) : Dear ..., 1. Accommodation Proof : It is advisable to enclose the proof of the same as the Entry Clearance Officer will be assured that you will have a place to stay as soon as you reach UK. Ther...
Would not putting an NA confuse the case worker? For eg. what if someone has NA as the middle initial? I would suggest leaving it blank would obviously mean that you dont have any middle/other name. The other query is, while filling up the applicaiton form, if i come across a filed that is not rele...
The university for my qualification(MCA) is Bangalore university, and is listed in the self assessment tool. Does this means that my qualification is on the UK NARIC database, and if i can select the option 1) above. Yes, only if your MCA degree qualification is also listed in English Language sect...
How on earth can you convince me (UKBA) that inspite of the HSMP guidance and the caseworkers guidance notes being freely and publicly available on the internet, you (OP) failed to become aware of the rules before you decided to apply for HSMP?? Not being aware of rules and hence applying them wron...
Is it good to say in the admin review that i shlould not be imposed 320 7a as i was never ever given false representation or lied you peple or Just say them that i have not made false representation or lied UK WP or the BHC I think your refusal will still stand, but try to make 320(7A) not applicab...
I know this is not relevant to discussion but: I have used VAF2 form as the VFS people insisted to fill that form only not the new form This is a very stupid thing done by VFS guys, when the rules say "fill form VAF 9A and 9B" then how can they force OP to fill VAF2? Leave aside what secti...
This is clearly unfortunate. If situation is as you describe, then you have not used deception in any form, nor have you made any false representations. And clearly 320(7A) does not apply to you. Your's is a case of wrong interpretation of the word "false representation". If you had inform...
Some common questions which Indian Tier 1 applicants have: 1. Where did you apply from? (which VFS office)? 2. What documents did you submit? 3. What doument did you submit for maintenane requirement? - Was it a single savings account or a joint account? - If joint account then did you submit a auth...
Assuming that 320 7(A) might not be applicable to OP (though I beg to differ), the OP can still be refused under Section 320 (15) - "(15) whether or not to the holder's knowledge, the making of false representations or the failure to disclose any material fact for the purpose of obtaining an i...
Finally he told me that why dont u declare WPUK about ur UK visit...I told i was not aware that i need to inform them as there is no option in the initial HSMP appliation form to declare that..But the payslips which i provided to them clearly says it is London during that period... He told me that&...
Linked from following thread: http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=27737 Can successful Tier 1 applicants please confirm the following: Accommodation proof is not required for Tier 1 application in India. I am asking this because VFS guys in India are thinking other wise, that is they wa...
I had mailed VFS for a list of documents that need to be submitted with the application and although their list shows a job offer letter as optional, it shows the accommodation proof as mandatory. hsmp1412, Can you post the list of documents which was given to you by VFS guys by email for submittin...
I had the idea that VFS people dont make any decisions related to Visa, rather BHC people are the ultimate authority in the decisions. So would it be any better if queries related to immigration rules are posted to New Delhi visqry.newdelhi@fco.gov.uk Chennai Chennai.visaenquiry@fco.gov.uk Kolkata V...
Is there any official source for the above statement. http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=27709 Hi, Many thanks for the reply. Yes I have letter of compatibility from NARIC for my B.E degree as well as M.Sc degree. I checked in this BIA calculator for Tier1, I can claim 35 points for m...
Now how can the applicant know before applying that his bachelors degree in NARIC database meets the HSMP english languge requirements. You can also check BIA points calculator right now to check if your degrees satisfy English language requirements. This calculator lists all the degrees which are ...
Now how can the applicant know before applying that his bachelors degree in NARIC database meets the HSMP english languge requirements. Through helpful forums like these, or through friends !!! If you can't find out that your Bachelor's degree satisfies English language requirements, you have no ot...
Now this is yet another interpretation I see from British High Commission people. They have replied to this person who asked them about maintenance funds, and I am surprised to see yet another interpretation of rules by BHC (regarding which documents are allowed and which are not). This is what they...
Thanks "CoolestGuyC" for your reply. Anyway I already submitted the application with one of the accounts being a joint account on my spouse's name. Let us see what happens. You have no cause to worry, as I have seen cases on this forum where joint account statements with spouse have been ...
