Very informatice thread Anyway, i learnt from this forum some one took child benifit while being on Tier 1 g, then on the time of extention realised he has committed a mistake, he paid back all the benefit, then attach a letter from authorities that he has paid whatever he took plus he enclosed a le...

My apologies,
I had opened couple of those windows, i think mixed up

Normally allowances are included in the payslip and count as earnings as you pay tax on those. In your snario, as you get allowances only, dont get payslip so dont pay taxes and ni on it. Further more you were deported from uk. I do not think it will be okay by HO, But wait for the seniors to commen...

Basically you want to sponsor your parients assuming both father and mother, but you dont have enough earnings to support them, being on benifits mean that you dont have enough money even for yourself and family that is why taking help from council. Plus you dont have enough space in your house for ...

Gross salary is the one before tax and ni deductions, but bear in mind do not include expenses which ur company re imburse you in your pay slips. Home office will only consider those salaries you have paid tax and ni on, so basically calculate earning for tax. If HMRC is happy then HO is happy. hope...

this question has already answered, If you are concerned how come the visa will be valid if the passport expires after six months, for instance you have validity on ur passport is for one year, and they give you three years visa. Then you visa still be valid even after the expiry of the passport, wh...

You did not mention, self employment through ltd company, or sole traders.

For the sole traders you will need business accounts from accountant as well which will include p and l statements but not the balance sheet.

Friends, About some time ago i was looking for an accountant, who is qualified and have practicing license, because i needed to have sorted out my self employment earnings. I found couple of those accountants but their rates were too high. this week i got my tier 1 general, If someone is looking for...

yes, you can pay by visa debit card, but first speak with the bank if they will authorise the payment because some banks put a limit on the transaction. I read last week i think in this forum when some one gave his vida debit card details but bank did not authorised the payment and his application w...

Normally banks send statements by post every month or every three months,
If you have received those bank statements by post as normal, and every every month or every three months statements are the same, you are good to go....

If still worried then get them stamped signed and dated.

@yasa

When ur wife was granted visa? Did you make any enquiry with HO?

Any seniors please?
Will there be any problem on the time of extention?
Visa says tier 1 but what category of tier 1, psw, general, invester or ?

Hi Friends I recently been granted Tier 1 general visa, on my passport where the type of permit it says tier 1 (general) migrant but on my wife s it reads as tier 1 (dependant) partner. i think it should be tier 1 (general) partner instead tier 1 (dependant) partner as i have seen and asked my frien...

As advised by Ramesh,
First try on your own, and if thinks cant do it then you can always approched to a good consultant.

I did on my own, and by the help of this forum, which is really helpfull,

Dear Forum members, moderatores and gurus,

I have been granted Tier 1 General visa intial applicant,

I want to thank you every body, specially ramesh, and chetan because of their advise on the time when i was preparing the documents and finalizing the file.

Many thanks,
Really appreciate that.

Thanks for the inputs and sharing

you can apply as soon as you fullfill the criteria,

If you have any more questions, you can always ask this forum

I know one person, who is on Psw, but to study he contacted HO and they sent him reply on email confirming that you can study,,, then he was accepted in a university otherwise uni were saying you have to have student visa to study the full time course,,,

as long as there is a valid visa, someone can come any time. But if you come within 28 days of issuance of your visa, will be betteer in future.

As per current rules, you will get ILR without more that one extention.

Hope this helps
