A part of my response is to changes they are making for everyone on HSMP. IF you cant get it then doesn'[t mean everyone is a thick headed moron like you. Read will notbackHSMP response above, atleast there is someone who reads between the lines, if you understand what i mean. Probably won't. You'r...
Well to be honest i am no great fan of HO but i think in this case we have to give them a benefit of the doubt they HAVE mentioned in their website abou this on 23rd April 2006. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/newsarticles/indefiniteleavetoremainforhsmp1 So I dont understand who is re...
