Hi all,

I don't have any blank pages left on my Indian passport so need to apply for a new one. Has anyone done this at the Indian High Commission in London? What has been your experience? How long does the whole process take?

Thanks in advance.

My question: Can i show gross amount as previous earning or is it Gross amount for Tax.

Yes. Previous Earnings is the Gross Amount earned. As long as your umbrella company's payslips state a Gross Amount that's what is taken into consideration.[/quote]

Yes there is a PLACE OF BIRTH entry on the Biometric.

Not sure what the procedure is if you change that on your passport.

I don't think the above post helps in Jusa's situation.

... when I apply for a Tier-1 visa? Companies House provides a 'web check' feature into which you can enter any registered company's name and it brings up their incorporation documents, accounting returns filed, etc. Companies House web check: http://wck2.companieshouse.gov.uk/a53ad051354177191a0436...

Looks good. Only other thing might be to take along your last submitted P60. If not, any other official document containing your UTR number from HMRC

In the words of the lady I talked with "if you've received the email then it's definitely confirmed"

Same here. My browser crashed too just after selecting my slot and confirming. Nothing on my UKBA login but got the email. Lady on phone confirmed that it was booked.

I have a same case, Can I ask which one is the right choice and why?

My understanding is that this question refers to the date of first use of this visa (Tier-1 initial), for which you are now applying for an extension.

Enter the septemeber 2010 date.

Experts please can you advise if a photo with a white background accepted for extn....

Just go in to Snappy Snaps (a chain photo studio) - they have "UK Biometric" specifically put up on their walls; the photos you take care will 100% conform to the regulations.

Yes that's right. Same day. Do a search for 'Croydon PEO' in the search box. This refers to the same-day appointment centre in Croydon where people have got their visas done.

There are loads of threads that will answer your question in detail. Just enter 'Umbrella' or 'Salary Dividend' in the search box.

Any rule that what ever we earned last 12 months we have to show all the amount .....

No. You can show the earnings from just one employer/one duration. Upto you.

HI,
I am a permanent employee and i have all payslips and a letter from employer (salary certificate).
Do i need to still produce my P-60 along with these.
Could any one please answer my query?

No. Just payslips and bank statements

Naveen have you followed up on the status of your appeal with UKBA, given the appeal was in August 2011?

I have a same day appointment at 08:00AM at the Croydon PEO on Wednesday. All my documents are in order & it should be hassle free. How long do you think I will be at the PEO? I need to make arrangements for cover at work in my absence. Will I need to submit everything & then return at a la...

Search on this forum for 'Natwest' - lots of people face this issue, the solution generally is to go to a branch and kick up a fuss until they sign and stamp it for you. Eventually they will. Or go to another branch.

Yes, its mentioned in the Policy Guidance too. I used a highlighter.

Do we really need company letterheads and stamp/seal? I mean do we need to print Payslips and Dividend Voucher on company letterhead? Do we need to sign and stamp both as director? Given you are preparing so much in advance, it would be a good idea to get made (1) company letterheaded paper and (2)...

I would second what QuickSam has said. I have been an IT contractor in the UK (moved here from India) for a few years now, and in my opinion your ability to land work depends on (1) communication (spoken english) skills, (2) assertiveness, and (3) some luck. In that order. I've known people very goo...

The total of the Points in Points Calculator Summary in the last section of the application form should include "english language" and "Maintenance" or not. I think these are mandatory fields. And if i add them my total points claimed comes to 125 which looks high. Yes, add them...

Thanks both

In full: RESTRICTED WORK NO DR/DEN TRAIN OR SPORTSPERSON The second half was explained to me by the caseworker at Croydon PEO --> No doctor or dentist in training, no sportsperson. Why the "Restricted Work" though? Does it refer just to the lines below it or is there something more? I don'...

Those who have approached such solicitors/lawyers would never reveal those details to any one especially in these kind of public forums. rajani1981 , Surely there is a category within the above: i.e. people who went to law firms with a genuine query as to what to do with their case, and the solicit...
