tipu20, But his visa isn't being transferred according to the UKBA as he lost his passport, the passport hasn't expired and he's not in possession of it. Therefore he'll have to re-apply.

this is another most rediculous law, There is no law like this. If you see link by tipu20 , there is clear provision for such cases. I think, in OP's case , it's case of avoidance by VFS. I don't see it's as mistake by BHC, he should not have applied as Tier1 application in first place. He should h...
