Thanks Ramesh.
Will do that.

Sorry to bother again but could you let me know if the cover letter mentioned should be sent in my name or in my wife's in this case? If its to be in my wife's name then do I need to send a seperate note or something that shows that I approve the application being made by her? Or is my consent withi...

My degree certificate has a award date only.

Thanks Ramesh. Unfortunately for me when I had sent the applications together my wife's application got rejected as her photo's were older than one month and so now I need to do the application seperately and pay so much more :( But am hoping that there is no issues on the next application we make. ...

Hi, Firstly, apologies for not having updated this earlier. I got a NARIC certification done for my Post Graduate Diploma from IIM Lucknow in August 2009. The NARIC letter said that my qualification was equivalent to a UK Masters Degree. I have since then applied for my Tier 1 General and got the ap...

Hi,

I will be submitting the Tier 1 dependant application for my wife seperately from within the UK soon.
Would be grateful if you could point me to the documents I need to send for her application and also if there is any cover letter available for the same.

Thanks in advance,
Krantik

Many thanks for your help.
I've just emailed the UK BA enquiries desk and hope to hear from them

Thanks guys. Will email and call the home office helpline and also keep trying on the PBS (with the hope that this is a website issue). Will get NARIC certification in the meanwhile and postpone application for some time now :( On a related point - assuming that the PGDM thing is sorted out with NAR...

Thanks.
Any ideas whether NARIC certification is a sure shot thing for post graduate diploma from an IIM?

Thanks. Unfortunately I don't have any screenshots of the previous attempts at the PBS. Do plan to call the home office but not sure if they can help as they sinmply repeat the line that 'if its in the PBS then its fine else its not' :) Interestingly if I select Master's degree as the qualification ...

I haven't yet applied so thats some consolation I've listed below out the criteria I am inputting for the qualification points - Country - India State - Uttar Pradesh Institute - Indian Institute of Management, Lucknow Qualification - Post Graduate Diploma Lenght of course - 1 year or less than 2 ye...

Hi, I'm slightly confused about whether or not a Post Graduate Diploma in Management from an Indian Institute of Management (IIM) is recognized by the Home Office as a masters course that qualifies with 35 points. I checked the point based calculator a month back and it gave me the required 35 point...

Hi, Another query I had (amongst many more to follow) is that how is the number of months I have been in the UK decided? For example: I first came to the UK in May 07 and was transferred back in Jan 08 but came back in Feb 08 again on a new assignement (but on same WP). So can I now claim that I hav...

Got this reply on the same query that I had mailed to the WP department - ''The spouse, unmarried partner and children of a work permit holder may be admitted to the United Kingdom as the dependants of a work permit holder. The spouse/unmarried partner will be given conditions of stay, which do not ...

Thanks folks.
Am sure that I'll be able to manage on my own - it does save me some money.

Also it seems to me that this forum has all the help that I can need if I have some doubts on the policy guide and documentations.

Thanks again.

Thanks Mr Rusty.
Do you also know if the change in her visa status from WP dependent to Tier 1 dependent will affect her ability to study in the UK?

Thanks again.

Hi, Am thinking of applying for a Tier 1 General visa (I have the required points). Is it feasible to do this directly or should I go through an agency. There is a lot of paperwork involved and am not sure I have 100% (stuff like 12 consecutive pay slips in the UK - probably have some gaps). Is it b...

My wife is in the UK with me on a dependent WP visa and is looking to enroll in some post graduate courses. Can she study while on dependent visa? Also if in the future I decide to switch to Tier 1 then will she be able to continue to study or work as a dependent Tier 1 visa holder? Thanks in advance
