Too little & too late. They should have cracked down earlier and harder so that genuine applicants dont suffer. Its still a mess and a lot need to be done to filter the junk out

I get that thanks but what about the fee? Are we supposed to pay anything to the UKBA as well when getting an appointment ourselves?

Suggestion for 'Tier 1 (G) ext app processing times' post

Gents, i found the sticky post ‘Tier 1 (General) extension application processing timelines’ incredibly helpful but the posts doesn’t seem to mention if the earnings are based on employment or self-employment. Shouldn’t this be included as this must be one of the key factors in deciding how much tim...

I am sorry to hear about your situation mukuo79. I have to ask though, do you not think that you are potentially digging a deeper hole for yourself by stretching it all out longer? Living in fear that UKBA will contact your employer during your appeal, all for some extra money? Is one month's extra...

HMRC says about Self-Employed Accounting: You or your accountant can, if you wish, use these records to create a profit and loss account. It shows the sales income you've received and the expenses you've paid, and what profit/loss you've actually made . The more detailed records you keep, the easie...

Clarification re earnings from more than one country

Hi, I want to clarify if an applicant can claim points for earnings from more than one country. I dont want to go into the uplift ratio argument. Its just whether a person can show his/her earnings from more than one country and are there any guidelines for this? I think in the Tier 1 guidelines the...

you can claim for the whole period that is 20/02/2009 and 19/02/2010 and you dont have to count it from feb to feb (making it 13 months) coz you are not claiming for the wholefeb both in 09 and 10. see it this way if u want to claim from 01 jan 09 - 31 dec 09 would that be a problem, NO. So it has t...

Refer to the link below which clearly mentions that PSW visa holders can be self employed and this is a government body so UKBA cant contradict this.
