Thanks very Much

His company started less than a year ago, I know some companies give tax once an year. If his accountant is saying him to come in October 2009, they must have done everything to see through the legal matters and solid reasons behind this. Seems okay to me. Follow chetan's advice and prepare for your...

My question is why do you want to take pictures alone? You can use www.google.com search name of place where you want to take pictures, click on images in the upper bar and there you are, a lot of images. If you want to be the part of that picture, you can use Microsoft paint. Advanced users can use...

I remember once a person mentioning that there was a similar name case with criminal conviction in another EU country. May be this it is the reason that they are asking for an oral hearing. Please wait for response from seniors. No. She selected 'NO' in all of those criminal conviction section and ...

Depends on case worker, my guess.

1. If the applicant has sufficient Leave to remain then reject app (because of the photos)
2. If the applicant's leave has expired, then ask for photos.

Does it mean that she forgot to answer those questions where they have asked if she had any criminal offence in UK? If so, I think you can say that it was an unintentional mistake and if it is possible/aplicable you may show a recent criminal certificate. Seniors must have more valuable suggestions...

Yes, may be because of summer he/she forgot to remove sunglasses . Anyway, congratulations for successful applicatiton.

Oh my God!
I wish that the case worker should not be like you!!!

If you arrive in UK without job, stay without job, how can you extend your visa? Everything is related with money, if http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RBHZFYpQ6nc .

Thanks Chetanojha and Ramesh. Yes, that is right. I am going to show the immediate last 12 months bank statements before my application. So it seems fine to serve both purposes (previous earnings + maintenance funds). In addition to satisfy previous earnings + maintenance fund sections, I am going t...

I have asked my bank to prepare last twelve months bank statement as a record of previous earnings. Can I use the same statement for maintenance funds or do I need to prepare a separate set of statement only for last three months? Thanks so much.

what does this mean??
"Applicants can shave two years off their wait by doing approved volunteer work. "
what kind of volunteer work?

Yes, when they say my fellowship was ..... for last twelve months, it is exactly the same amount of SUM of salaries which my bank statments show for last one year. They did not mention gross and net income separately in the letter as it is free of tax, but they included the clause of national law in...

Thank you chetanojha an tvn_ramesh. This is how simple things become hard to get. I do not know what to do. Anyway, will try again to get in this format. What would be an ideal format for this letter from employer?? I am having problems in obtaining it as Chetan mentioned. They issue only mentioning...

What would be an ideal format for this letter from employer?? I am having problems in obtaining it as Chetan mentioned. They issue only mentioning income that I have earned in one year, not monthly. They just say for these tweleve months I have received this total income which is free from tax due t...

Congratulations!! Must be because of MP, but it looks strange that the visa was issued on 25th March, 2009, while you saw status from 3rd April till last week "under consideration". I was staying in different countries for employment over the past several years and from my immigration expe...

One minor suggestion: "below this funds level" may be revised to "below this fund level" or "below these funds level". @ Thanks Ramesh @ Thanks Chetan Please find the new format below, if its good to go ahead, let me know? Once again Thanks for these valueable comments ...

Most members are suggesting that even if you have got a Tier 1 visa, you should not be leaving your current job outside UK, unless you find a suitable one in UK. It seems a wise opinion. My concerns are, if someone could not find a job in three years of visa validity or most part of three years and ...

Does this mean if you have a Tier 1 visa and you intend to enter UK as a visitor then you should apply for a tourist visa? If one goes by the book (rules+underlying spirit), what you intend to do should not be seen as any different from coming here on a tourist VISA and start working full time.

I read all threads from you ( Kathy.Hawes ) and would like to say a few words: Working in Pizza Hut or MacDonald is not a shameful occupation. It is better than doing nothing and wandering in streets in search of "a dream job". And cheap schools are not always as bad as you are claiming. B...

Good luck!!

Congratulations, that was quick. It appears in foreign countries they decide the fate of application in BHC, without involving any process/correspondence from UK. Right? Never mind about job related replies, assuming that you have already planned and worked on it. If not, of course it should be your...

The querry was: Hi, I would like to know if i can enter UK without job. or Do i need to apply from India and get the job from India? Pls help. It would be helpful if seniors respond to this question in detail. I rember in another thread someone was saying that you can enter anytime until your visa i...

This is not right forum for this question. Anyway, you do not need to book the ticket before getting visa, but in visa application form you do need to fill out a proposed itinerary . It is required to mention in application. My parents and me did same for our recent trip to UK. No you dont need to b...
