BRP

Dear Mates,

Today I received the BRP for my dependants but mine has not come yet. Has anybody else faced the same thing? Shouldn't they arrive on the same day?

Best

PEO fee payment

I have some very silly questions: 1. When we go for PEO, do we still need to fill payment section of the forms or we just go to a counter to pay the application fees? 2. Are we making one single payment for the total fees of main applicants and dependants? 3. If your payment is declined, can you use...

Question regarding J9

Dear Mates,

Sorry I have an urgent question as I have PEO appointment tomorrow.

When completing Tier 1 G form, should I fill J9 section asking the details for verifications?

If so, what details do they need?

Thanks,

How are you confused? It's simply 12 full months from the starting date. So 1 April will take you to 31 March the next year. I was expecting some one like you to reply me. thanks. In same sense 05/03/2012 to 04/03/2013 can be 12 months ? NO 05/03/2012 - 04/02/2013 = 12 months = 336 days http://www....

Hi Palmist. What are the new criteria? Where does it say that your pay shouldn't be less than 28K for extension?

Thanks Sushdmehta,

I don't know. I will ask them to do so. However the difference would be about £25.00 that they need to pay me in this case.

Does it make any confusion when applying and case officer start questioning?
