One thing I have noticed is the time between approval date mentioned on approval letter and the actual receipt of approval letter by post - between 7 to 15 days. Even by second class post, it should reach within 2-4 days. Ack/Biometric letter date and receipt is generally in 2-3 days. May be approva...
You really are ready to pay £450? for what? This doesn't sound right from the onset. I am sure you are being taken for a ride. Why are you so anxious when you have done nothing wrong, apart from keeping stuff which was sent to YOUR address? Just call your neighbor's bluff.
Your best bet is to get a letter from your employer stating that you were required to work from India for that < 90 day period. That should cover the absence. Whether the new ICT visa in Oct 2010 is considered something similar to an ICT extension is not known. Not sure if your employer had an optio...
To qualify, you must have had at least 1 of these visas in the 5 years: Tier 2 (Intra-Company Transfer) issued under the Immigration Rules in place before 6 April 2010 I know it is logical to infer from this that period of Tier 2 ICT granted before 6 April 2010 can be counted while applying for ILR...
Having read the 'Continuous residence' guidelines here , I see that the list of Visa categories does not include Tier 2 ICT(granted before 6th April 2010). It however is seen in Section 6.1 C of Para 245CD here Just wanted to confirm that period of Tier 2 ICT (granted before 6th April 2010) can stil...
I would now be going through the small claims process to recover my deposit. If the landlord files a counter-claim and worst case the ruling goes against me, would that count as a CCJ against me? No. Just to update, my case went for a hearing and the court decided on a middle ground. I did ask the ...
It wouldn't surprise me if the fees are raised again for Tier 1 extensions, ILR and naturalization applications. Apologies if this information has already been posted.
My dependents were taken off the GP roll(since the old visa had expired) so it was not possible to get medical advice for my son after his hospitalization for a while. I sent the hospital discharge letter and contact details of medical services organization who handle the GP registration process and...
How did you come to know that fax request for expediting did not work? Did UKBA get back to you? Last year visa application of my dependants(spouse + kids) was stuck for more than 4 months and I had sent a fax to expedite. Got the visa approval in a week's time after sending the fax.

I think the important bit is what the applicant uses to show/prove her ties to home country.
Get a letter from her employer, income details(salary slips, tax returns), provide any property documents/fixed deposit receipts/bank statements on her name(if available)
So Total Gross => £Z = £(X-Y) x 12 (i.e. for a year) £ Z will be used for awarding earning points. Cheers! I am not sure about this. My view is that (employee)Pension contributions through salary sacrifice can be included in your gross salary. There have been cases on this forum where applicants ha...

Thanks Amber. The part of UK I live, the deposit schemes only started from April '13.
I would want to avoid the courts but if the other party is not reasonable, then I do not want to accept the wrongdoing lying down. So was wondering if this would impact me if it does not turn out in my favor.
Hi, I have moved out of a rental property and would be filing a claim through the small claims process to recover my security deposit since the landlord is claiming unreasonable deductions. Question is: in worst case scenario if I lose the claim in the county court(if it goes for hearing), would tha...
As long as you are claiming for a 12 month continuous period, you can include earnings till 14th July. So you can claim earnings for the period between 15th July 2012 and 14th July 2013
The consultation principle seems flawed. It doesn't consider the tax + NI contributions of the migrants at all. Especially for Tier 1 General Highly skilled category, most the migrants would be paying more tax + NI than UK average. Also the fact the visa extension charges (for Tier 1) are already ve...
For the Tier 1 Investor, Tier 1 Entrepreneur, Tier 1 Exceptional Talent and Highly Skilled Migrant (applying under Appendix S of the rules) categories there is no requirement to give a reason for absences if they do not exceed 180 days in any of the five, four, three or two consecutive 12 month per...
The change was made since deciding on long absences was left to the discretion of senior case workers. This resulted in disparity in decisions. Hence the allowance was made quite generous keeping in mind the nature of some jobs(eg. employees in the oil exploration industry, software consultants) but...
The UKBA documentation is quite clear that you cannot make an in-country application for an initial leave to remain as a PBS dependant. Not sure what the confusion is on that. That is the simple reason for rejecting your application
