Agree with Push... we must not make a petition that sounds desperate. Contrary to what someone already said in the form, we DO have a lot to lose, if we do not put the right petition in. I think it should be kept short with just the key points. - Who we are - What is the concern - What are we expect...
Dear Home Secretary, We, the undersigned, are writing to express our views and concerns about the closure of the Tier-1 (General) route and the lack of information about its impact on existing Tier-1 (General) visa holders who are already in the United Kingdom. This petition is a collective appeal ...
You should probably check with the HR in your company directly. Since you are on WP, they must be very aware of your situation and the conditions imposed on you by the Home Office. So if you are not eligible for it, they would be able to stop the payment right away since they wouldn't want to be in ...
What is given in your Work Permit letter must be the basic salary. I believe you are entitled to have overtime & bonus on top of this in addition to a normal yearly salary review. (You should probably wait for senior members to confirm this) This is a quote from the Home Office website You will ...
This question may sound silly... My husband is here on a Tier 2 ICT visa & I am on a Tier 1 visa. We will be moving to a new apartment soon. The maintenance of the flat is taken care of by a Limited Company set up by all the residents of the building. The company has directors and other executiv...
IF you look at the case worker instructions for settlement applications from work permit/Tier 2, I think they provide a grace period of up to 3 months if all other conditions are met... That was my interpretation... I am not sure though... http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/poli...
Is it possible to send the government a response to their response? We are mindful of the impacts that changes to the immigration system can have on those who are already in the UK. Mitigating those impacts must be balanced against the need to ensure a robust system and the fact that we cannot keep ...
Found this here... http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/settlement/guidseto04091.pdf If you entered the UK with a visa several weeks or more after the date from which it was valid for use, you may need to apply for an extension of stay to complete the relevant qualifying pe...
i think that age (as well as education) will be assessed again based on the extension criteria... from the tier 1 policy guidance.... Extension Applications – where an applicant has, or last had leave as a self-employed lawyer and writers, composers and artists or as a Tier 1 (General) Migrant und...
The Immigration rules (Appendix A - Attributes) says that those who have or last had HSMP, Tier1 etc under the rules in place before 31st March 2009 can claim points for bachelors.. (at least this is my understanding) I think those who are extending for the 2nd time would fall under the 'last had' c...
BUT, the basic difference is that HSMPian ( now Tire-1) who came after Nov '06 had to sign as acknowledgement that immigration law in UK can be changed in future and it can affect them. I applied for HSMP in April 2007 (post Nov 2007) I had to sign a declaration form that had these 2 separate point...
and make life's important decisions based on presumptions. Always have a back-up plan or atleast be mentally prepared for the worst. Life's important decisions are generally based on presumptions. Take marriage for example... another important decision in life... it is again based on the presumptio...
I just have to ask this. Have any of you asked yourselves what is the point of staying in this country and going through all this... If only you could be 20 everyday... It is not easy to start evrything from scratch. We invested our time, our skills and our expectation in this country. Is it that e...
Let us wait for a couple of weeks more until further details are published on how exactly they are going to implement the changes from July 19th to April 2010. We can then send the petition or letter accordingly. Do we really know more details will come? Should we just wait till Dec? Or the best wa...
Article 8 of European Commission for Human Rights says: Article 8 – Right to respect for private and family life 1. Everyone has the right to respect for his private and family life, his home and his correspondence. 2. There shall be no interference by a public authority with the exercise of this ...
Now, they don't care about your or my opinion. There is no option for us to send our feedback to MAC. Yes, it is unlikely that they would take our opinion. We can however write to our MPs, and send petitions to the Govt. The Conservatives & th Lib Dems were sympathetic to our cause during the c...
Does anyone know.... may be slightly out of topic here...
The number of T2 CoS is capped under the interim limit.
Do you have to get a new CoS when you go for a T2 extension or can you extend your T2 visa with the CoS you got with your 1st application?
If you read the MAC document, section 3.3 - Issues & Limitations, their goal is to limit the number of migrants to tens of thousands during the current govt run. i.e before 2015 & this will be based on the data available by April 2013 which essentially gives then 2.5 years to show results fr...
Found this here.. http://www.publications.parliament.uk/pa/jt200607/jtselect/jtrights/173/173.pdf This is a publication by the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Human Rights on the HSMP judicial review. Most of the comments in this document relates to the Human Rights violation based on 'I intend to ...
I think (& hope) that the extension applications the MAC are talking about is for those T1s based on the rules in place from July 16th. Those of us extending based on the rules before July 16th may be OK. For the April 2010 changes, MAC had suggested that they put in place some sort of transitio...
