u will also need the original start date of your visa and how many days later you entered the UK.

this will affect whether you can get ILR with 1 extension or 2 extensions

u need to assume that u will get your visa start date on the same day as your PEO appointment, I would also make sure you are within the 28 days of the 5 years, so it also depends on when you entered the country. u need to count the days you have been in the country, so if you entered the UK say 3 w...

r u self employed?

often it is a numbers game, get your CV out to as many recruitment agencies and companies. Try to spice your CV up to set you apart from others without stretching the truth.

I am not in the IT market as most people in these forums are normally, IT market may be saturated again,

I would say the way UKBA are scrutinising applications now, you stand about somewhere between zero and none chance , in % that is 0%

You seem very blaise about the false ID....

Hi, I entered UK after 9 months from my Tier 1 (General) visa start date. It means, By the end of 5 years, I will not have 5 years continuous stay in the country, which may not allow me to apply for ILR. Can someone please let me know if Tier 1 visa can be extended beyond 5 years? Awaiting your res...

Hi Guys ! I have applied for Tier 1 General in May 2010 last year and unfortunately my application was not been successful on the ground of basis of earning points. And i achieved the rest of Points but only earning point make problem, due to insufficient Bank statement Transactions. And i put on a...

We have set slots as well as are normally able to get further slots 5 days a week, but we are in Birmingham, therefore we are accredited with PEO Birmingham. Mind, though, that we are a private legal firm and that we do not sell slots. IMMIGRATION LAWYER, Perhaps you can answer this question. How c...

you need to phone around, there are immigration solicitors who can get you appointments a week or two before your expiry date Do immigration lawyer / agents need to request slots for specific clients (and then Home Office decides) or do the firms already have slots that they can use for anyone? I a...

Hi all, Just got back from Cardiff from my PEO app. What a pleasant experience that was- none of the chaps ever asked a single question, just looked at the docs briefly and sent me to kill off some time while they do all they needed to do. They mentioned that they might need 2 to 4 hours... With th...

Hi Friends I changed jobs once in the 12 month previous earning period and the salary for a month won't be paid by my previous employer as it will be deducted as salary in lieu of notice. This is for the month of May. I still haven't received the payslip/release papers so not sure how it will be wo...

Thanks for the swift response. I did not include a letter of comparability from NARIC but plan to do that as part of my response and appeal (hoping they will accept). I already have 60 points across age, income and UK experience. So 20 points should be enough for qualification. By including CA and ...

Dear All - hope all is well. My application for a Tier 1 has been rejected on the grounds that my qualification (Bachelors, Chartered Accountancy (CA)- both from India) are deemed to be less than Bachelor level in UK. According to the UKBA, "You provided a certificate from the Institute of Cha...

friends, I wish to apply for my tier-1 extension, my visa expires on 18th july. planning to apply thru PEO. My challenge is that dates are not available online. I am told agents have available slots with them. i am aware this is a selfhelp, knowledge forum, still will request you to fwd contact det...

Not all of your assumptions are correct... 95% of Solicitors and most registered agents have to make request to UKBA via email 2 weeks before the actual application date. They do not have any prior bookings. 5% of firms, solicitors and registered agents (who are regular) user of UKBA premious servi...

When you book an appointment through an immigration Solicitor, do they get an appointment for A. you (to submit your application yourself) or B. is it for them (submitting your application on your behalf)? Or in other words, when you get an appointment through Solicitor, who visits PEO: A. you or B...

I have been watching the Tier 1 PEO online booking system for some time now and have found some strange anomalies. In addition I have done some research on using an immigration solicitor to assist with a Tier 1 PEO booking and have found some interesting information. 1)Online appointments seem to AL...

Its a bit odd to get extention for three months in advance. As you said its normal to post the application 2-3 months in advance. As far I have noticed, home office is deciding within 30 Days. In some cases I am noticing with days of getting biometrics done. The processing times I got was from the ...

Thanks alot; I have called them on friday and saturday last week but their reply was the same as its online status. I will call them on monday as well and will wait for about two more days. Then i will inform HO about the situation. Therefore my dear friends if anyone know any direct email address ...

r the payslips original or just printed? if not, get stamped and signed. You need photocopies of everything. What about photos? Are banks statements original? You don't state. The payslips are printed and are signed and bare a company seal, photos (6 inc. dependants) are attached as part of the app...

Should I take 3 different cheques for me my spouse and daughter....

If we can apply a 2nd extension to make up the 5 years after the 1st extension, then we do not need to worry about short of years to get settlement anymore. I am NOT considering the extra cost here. Any thoughts? Yep. I'm going with the same idea - don't care that I have to extend for the 2nd time....

as i have mentioned time and time again on many a post. DONT APPLY with minimum maintenance requirements, if you do your application will be analyzed in detail and will be rejected for any slight deviation of the rules. even if the rules are not clear If you just add an extra couple of thousand poun...
