OTOH i have seen members here on this board who have done exactly that (i.e. all earnings are in foreign country not the UK) and still maang...

question on bank statement

I requested my bank to mail me all the statements with the stamp only to be told that the bank does not have any official stamp whatsoever. All the bank will do is to mail me the very ...

Hi Guys, Thanks for all your feedback.. It seems very positive indeed. I do intend to live and work in the UK eventually but it seems like it will be easier for me to meet the requirements for visa extension with overseas earnings rather than going to the UK and trying my luck (and not to mention th...

Hi MB243 Thank you so much for your response. I understand that generally speaking its quite a gamble. I was referring to the scenario where I am able to get contracts paying minimum of 300 GBP per day. From whatever limited market testing I could do, I think I can take this risk. (I dont know how e...
