Hi, I am currently on a tier 2 ict visa. I am planning to apply for a ILR next month. My partner was initially with me and had spent 2 years in UK (not continuously) but she is in India currently for holidays. Can you please let me know if my wife can apply as a dependent once I have completed my IL...

Thanks Kev.

Thanks mate....in the border case..... But you still need employer reference letter for ILR and you are saying they can give with OLD SOC code ? Actually , appendixj and SOC 2010 has old code to new code mapping defined which case worker will refer to. As suggested by others , you can take a print o...

COS was issued in 3rd of Jan....COS ends on 3rd apr

The COS is valid for 3rd April 2013....very unfortunate....

thanks mate...

I was just reading the SOC code document: http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/employersandsponsors/pointsbasedsystem/cop-skilled-workers.pdf Page 3 Who should read this document? This document is aimed at employers who are looking to sponsor a migrant through the Points-Based Sys...

cool....so does UKBA directly contacts the Company in such scenarios....Hopefully that will force them to work....

Thanks Kevin. Let me try tomorrow morning to convince them again.

But is it true that all applications for ILR should contain the new SOC code? In cases where I have been provided my COS before April 6, 2013 should this be still applicable? My Tier 2 extension is approved before 6th Apr 2013.

I pity on my employer and worry about the future if they go on recruiting such idiot HRs. Absolutely frustrating people.

Yes. The salary is £10000 higher than even the new code experienced rate.

I have told them. They are saying since Company does not entertain ILR and is only responsible for the Tier 2 applications , as per the rule they can provide such details once they generate a new COS for future application. As a worst case scenario I have told them that if UKBA asks the company for ...

Thanks Kevin. I have already provided them with exact links, page number, exact mappings of new and old code but they are saying it is a compliance issue. Even explained them several times today to various teams. I really doubt from where the company picks up these genius brains who don't understand...

Hi, I was planning to apply for ILR. However my company is not providing me revised SOC code letter which is applicable after 6 April 2013. They are arguing that since my COS was generated for Tier 2 Extension before 6th April 2013 hence the new rule is not applicable for me and they cannot provide ...

Thanks to everybody in this forum for support. Here are my dates: Type of application: Tier 2 ICT Extension Number of dependants applying at same time: 0 Date application posted: 17/01/2013 (post) Date application received at UKBA: NA Date payment debited: N/A Payment mode :Postal order Acknowledgem...

It seems all Premium Service Booking will attract a Booking fee of £100.
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/about ... rson/cost/.

Not sure if this is applicable for ILR applications as well i.e. all premium service appointment will have to pay £100.

Thanks All for your help.

Has anybody seen any changes to Premium service cost or ILR (SET O) form for rules affecting candidates from 6th April 2013?
I can't see any change.

Does anybody has a link for the policy guidance?

that's what my company highlighted who has file Tier 2 ICT for me. In fact they have specially mentioned that I shouldn't change my residence during this period. UKBA normally sends the approval later along with your BRP card and Passport and other documents. I was suggested that we should not shift...

UKBA normally sends the approval later along with your BRP card and Passport and other documents. I was suggested that we should not shift during the processing as it might come your home address as well. Sometimes they may not send to the communication address and instead can deliver at your home a...
