Dear All, PEO appointment release time has changed? I read some where that it changed to 11:30 PM and 6:00 AM. But last night and this morning during these times I could not find anything and no new slots are available (although most of them time the system was down) Has anyone had any experience re...

Thank you for your reply.

Actually, I myself know the dates and dont worry about it. I am more concerned that in future UKBA will have any doubt about the validity of stamp and that makes problems.

Entry Stamp

Dear All, I entered the UK today and the immigration officer put entry stamp on my passport. In my way home, I noticed that the stamp is so obscure that the day cannot be seen and only "OCT 2012" can be seen. Then, is there anyone has had such experience? Is it a problem? If yes, what can ...

Thank you.

I agree with you but the university insists that there will be no problem as the CAS will not be issued for a new course only for an extra exam and this makes me doubtful.

I dont think that the joint account is the best idea. if UKBA confirms it with bank and they says that the account has been joint since last week for example I think they will refuse due to deception.

Appointment error

Hi,

Since this morning around 11:00 I've been unable to check the appointment. After I select the PEO and dates, a technical error displayed. Is it a general problem or there is something wrong on my machine?

For Tier 2 General there is no need to send and any payslip even for one month. What you read was about Initial Tier 2 ICT application. For Tier 2 extension passport, photo, application form and CoS are enough.

They do not accept by cash. the best way to pay for premium service is pay by card to avoid any further charge for payment by postal order.

Dear All,

I have a question for my friend.

For Tier 2 General extension if someone wants to apply in PEO, she should fill the online application form or she could fill the paper one and book an appointment as before.

It is three nights that exactly at 12:00AM the UKBA website is out of access and I cannot book an appointment. Is it a common experience or I have a problem?
