Thanks O_relly and Argus 7 for all the answers so far. Really appreciated. One more question is around the eligibility date for applying ILR. I entered initially on the 08th Mar, 2011 and planning to apply on 25th Feb. In terms of eligibility am i right in understanding that this is ok, as the date ...

1. Just mention this in a cover letter and that should be fine. Since you were not in employment this would be acceptable. Thanks for clarifying this. I will include this in the cover letter. 2. No problems as long as your tax affairs are in order. Make sure you are telling the HO and HMRC the same ...

Hi All,

Would really appreciate if the forum members can provide their expert advice on these questions please.

In July 2011, I resigned and went to India to...

Thanks both. NKS: Careful, even for ILR, it's 28 days before your qualifying period which is 5 years.. And not 28 days before current visa expiry as that may be taking you in up to 7-8 years in UK I didn't quite understand this can you please explain this. Thanks, What NKS was trying to say is that...

Hi Rash123, Yes, you can apply as early as possible but as you probably know already the Visa will be granted from the date of application rather the date of expiry. There is nothing in Tier 1 visa rules stopping you from applying early and if you search the forum you will find a lot of people who h...

Hi Vijay, The changes for extension only specifically call out for main applicant. The Dependents will still be allowed to extend LTR or apply for Entry Clearance post April 2015. In your case if you get ILR by Jul 2015 then your wife can still extend her visa by making a tier 1 dependent applicatio...

Tier 1 General visa extension are getting closed from 6th April 2015. If you want to extend your visa, you better get it extended before April 2015.

Hi I am in the same boat. My wife applied for a Tier 1 Dependent Visa on 13th Feb at the New Delhi VFS and the status says it is under processing since 18th Feb. It has been more than 15 working days already. @jhansi_82: Which VFS have you applied from. Looks like there might be a hugh backlog at th...

Thanks for the link vp. However looking at the post there are people who have submitted a lot of documents which i am not even sure is required and hence wanted to know if I can get an affirmative answer to my question.

Hi,

Thanks in advance.

Hi All, My Wife will be applying for her dependent visa from India later next month. Can I request the forum members to validate the list of documents and advise if everything is in place. Documents provided by Dependent: 1. Dependent Application - On-line Form Printed and Duly Signed. 2. Passport 3...

I certainly hope so... as you already mentioned they are more interested in validating the net amount should match with your payslip.

Hi immigrantx, It all depends on the case worker. I think the member you are referring to is me as I got my extension from 05/10 instead of 01/12 but for me it does not matter as I have a gap of more than 90 days in my initial entry and would need to go for a second extension. Another friend of mine...

Hi asc.26 I had a similar case like yours where for one of the month the narrative in my bank statement was not matching with my pay slips. Though I had taken a letter from my current employer to be safe, I had no problems going in for my PEO appointment last week as I was not asked any questions ab...
