Hi all, I have got my ILR approval letter and BRP on the same day. I had applied in the second week of April this year, along with 3 dependents. The overall process took 4 months and 3 weeks. In the last 10 days of June, I had attempted a Premium Upgrade but was declined with the statement "Unf...
Post application: ILR SET (O) Tier 1 Date of application: 1-April-2016 E-mails: Never received. Biometrics given within April as soon as the letter was received. Attempted to upgrade to premium service but they told me that I am not eligible for the upgrade. Does anyone know what the "eligibili...
Thanks mr_mar! I can see your point and I guess I am worried without any valid reason. Your are right that the gross salary should be used for points calculation and the net salary is used for matching with bank statements.
Thanks vinny, once again! You are a great help on this forum. I have finally decided to apply in person for my self and other dependants and then apply for my son (born here) separately as soon as we receive our BRP's. This will also save us some money as I would apply for him via post. Do you see a...
It's on the payslip but not part of the cash transferred to my bank (because these were vouchers; tax paid by the company), and hence, it's not reflected on the bank statement. That's why it worries me -- they ask two sources of earnings proof!
My company awards taxable vouchers based on performance (kind of like performance linked bonus). These vouchers are mentioned on the payslip and the tax is deducted just like salary. Can I include these vouchers in my calculation of earnings? The reason I am asking this question is because the "...
Thanks vinny. We would be flying out to attend a wedding, and thus, I need to apply for my son's visa. The only questions are what's the process if I want to apply at the same time, and what forms to use if I would apply for his visa separately.
NHS and Free Basic Education are definitely available to everyone as these are considered basic rights of the residents. There are other benefits, based on NI contribution, which we can also avail. There is a definite list of what "public funds" are restricted. You can find it here: https:...
Hi, I am on a Tier 1 (General) visa which needs to be extended before April 2015 deadline. I already have had my first extension a couple of years ago, along with 2 of my dependants (my wife and my daughter). My query is regarding the application process for my son who was born here in the UK; he is...
I don't think so. There is a definite list of what constitutes as a public fund and ISA is not there. However, let's see if someone with more knowledge has a better answer.
Hi, I've arranged for a 2 bed accommodation after getting a job. Now, I want my family to join me. I believe that in order to show that I have accommodation for my family, the dependent's application should be accompanied with my tenancy contract. However, there is one clause in the contract which i...
I am also interested in knowing...specially can one setup a contracting company using his own capital so that per month salary doesn't become an issue?
