When did you enter the country?

By the way, their website says that JR has been launched.

New forms and guidelines have published on UKBA web for applications on or after 19 July 10 Does not look like updated for "applying for outside uk initial applications". I did check that..but just want to confirm, did you see them? I will be applying by this month end, so looking for new...

I am afraid the answar is yes. There is 28 days rule but never seen some one getting ILR 2 months early.

Sleeping stage mate!

You know what? Govt imposed some funny laws on English schools last year. They have gone to court and last week they have won the case.

I would not recommend to have any high hope with this JR.

I think we will hear some thing very soon. May be Sep/Oct times.

I think we all have to wait until September.

Studands (& PWS) are the biggest source of immigration.

It seems that there will be huge changes after April.

Chosing from Pool and biding for sponserships are making me feel laugh.

Lets see whats happen tomorrow. I hope that they will clearly indicate that what they want to do.

I still belive that 24100 cap will not hurt the immigrants a lot because as per BBC its only 5% less than last year.

Interesting discussion

Do not forget that in UK, you have access to free schooling and free top class health care which are very expensive in Asia. In UK if you are poor, you are still a human being. In many asian countries this is not the case.

This is going to affect only new commers T1. (Not T2).

Do not worry, this is not a big change. Last year they issued the same number of T1 visas. (As you can see from BBC that this cap is going to reduce total number of visas by 1300.)

Actual change and proper cap will be after April-11.

24000 T1 visas will be issued until April. (1300 lower than last year)

Wait for Monday for full details.

No one knows. If Govt wants to implement new citizenship bill, than they will set the critria of getting Probationary Citizenship. (There is no info available about new critira.)

In next few weeks/month some info will be available on this topic.

Are you sure that you was on TWES not on Workpermit? Did you mention word TWES to case worker?

As far as I know letter from employer is very important for ILR.

Why your employer is not providing you letter? Even for other purposes e.g. renting house, sch kind of letters are very common.

Do not worry about copy of Workpermit.

I found this thread very interesting. I think that there are few things missing from this interesting discussion. 1 - Unemployment in Birmingham is very high 2 - Education and experience gained in Poland is seemed lower than UK 3 - This recession has affected more white collar class so there are man...

Only depandant can set up.

My sons were born in the UK and me and my wife has got Indefinite leave to remain. My sons have got British passport on the basis of ILR and born in the UK. They are also Pakistani National and have got ILR stamp in their Pakistani passport. Do they have to get any stamp on their Pakistani passport...

For all WP holders immigration Welfare ltd must win the case. Its very important now.

The process has been started - the HO website is being updated! The previous link to transitional arrangement is dead!! The one to earned citizenship is only mentioning refugees route now!!! Sounds like the new team is cleaning up the labour's mess!... Do not worry, I do not think that removing lin...

Cong. for you. Best Wishes
