I was just wondering how does it translate to my case where the bank has given me Print out of the statement in a paper (has the logo etc) and stamped on each page 'This is a true copy'.

Does it have the bank stamp too in addition to the "true copy" stamp?

Hi, I am applying for the Tier 1 (general) visa. As a supporting evidence for maintenance funds as well as salary credit I will need to provide with bank statements. I have the regular bank statements for all the eleven (11) past months, except the current (recent) one. If I request for one from Na...

Does the closure from 23rd Dec affect dependants too?

Tks

No. Only main applicants are affected.

It is of the same year. The passport also has the date 3/mm/yyyy stamped on it on arrival in UK Airport. I don't know if this is funny or scary. Hope it does not land me in issues. Technically, you have stayed in UK illegally when you didnt have permission to. As said above, be honest. Not sure if ...

Thanks Sumit, People out here have guided me to get Cash or DD. Although DD is not possible now ( unless I get from Standard Chart at the Visa centre ) Arranging cash now even would be difficult...........I don't have that much limit on my Debit Card (although I have money in my account ) and trans...

Receipts of what? Did you mean payslips?

Again, all documentation requirements are in the link provided to you above.

Hi, I am planning to apply for a Tier 1 visa. I have a Tier2 visa on which i had traveled to the UK for a month. Recently i realized that I landed in the UK on 3/mm/yyyy whereas my valid date on the visa is 5/mm/yyyy . Now on the Tier 1 visa form i need to mention my previous Travel date 3/mm/yyyy ...

There is one more thing to be noted...if they wanted to stop Tier 1 general extension applications after april 2011 then they should have stopped in-country Tier 1 general applications now itself as there may be many people applying for Tier 1 in country as well until April 5, 2011..Where will thes...

Hi all, I got this reply Dear, The changes to the Immigration Rules that were laid today do not affect applications made in the UK. Tier 1 (General) will remain open to all in-country applicants until 5 April 2011. There will be transitional arrangements for Tier 1 (General) migrants who wish to ap...

Hello, I am switching from PSW to Tier-1 General in February 2011. UKBA website told that i need to give my Biometric measures with my application. My doubt is, when i had a student visa extension 2 years ago, i have given Biometric measures and been granted a Biometric Permit. Now, do i need to gi...

Amen. Hope the same too for fellow members of this forum!

Also, in anticipation of the transitional arrangements being made clear, might be prudent for current T1G holders to maintain a "suitable" minimum balance in their bank accounts for the next few months. Obviously not sure what suitable is, but I am going by the minimum of 800 and doubling ...

Thats good news but dont know what transitional arrangements the UKBA would levy for us... I am applicable for extension in 2012 so lets wait n see. Correct, we need to wait till we know what the "transitional arrangement" actually are. Given the noises this government is making wrt immig...

The immigration minister mentioned several times in his speech yesterday that they are awaiting a written copy of the judgement in Jan before they decide if they will appeal against it or not. Wonder if they will go ahead and appeal and (God forbid), again say that limit was legal if they win the ap...

If all applications submitted before 23-Dec are to be issued a visa (if approved), then when will they allow applications to fill the remaining quota from the limit (which is now reimposed legally)? I think they are completely ignoring the term "Interim Limit" and legally introduced new c...

Rules will be the ones valid on your application date. Not necessarily, in this case. At the end of the interim period, applications that have not been concluded will be considered in accordance with the new rules that replace the interim limits. Reading these topics may be useful. regards Interest...

I have planned to apply for Tier 1 General on 3rd week of march.
I am in PSW visa right now. If I apply in march, will they consider my application by rules on application date or by new rules from APRIL 2010.

Thanks in Advance

Rules will be the ones valid on your application date.

The minister said that T1G would be closed from tomorrow and he would make an announcement to that effect. Anyone with a legal background - does making this statement in parliament tomorrow mean that it is in effect right away as a law? Or does any paperwork etc need to be done before the T1G is clo...
