Hello , I am on tier 1 (general) starting from May 16 2011. I need to extend/renew it soon and had some questions around my ILR application I would have to make in May 2016. The new rule( that came up in Dec 2012) if I am correct states that :- "No more than 180 whole days absence are allowed i...

Hello , I got my Tier 1 this year/2011 in April. I am hearing that there are new rules for ILR and PR for those who got a Tier 1 this year.

I've travelled a lot for business over the last two years.. (out of my country India) and the duration of these stays have been between 2-5 months.. Should I mention all these Hotel , Serviced Apartment Addresses and duration of stay in the Tier 1 form? (by taking photocopies of the page) If I were ...

Thanks.. 2 other questions I've got: I am arranging for original bank statements from India .. I should get it next week.. They are on original bank stationery.. so is it right that I need no stamp or seal on it? Can I used the same bank statements I am using for proving "previous earnings"...

I just reached UK in March and I am from India. I have the other documents sorted out /arranged but couldnt get the bank statements collected while in india. So if I have someone on my behalf collect the statements in India (which I have called the bank and confirmed is possible)..and get sealed &am...

yes I should have mentioned - "bank statements".. sorry

they are original and on bank stationery

so i think a seal , signature or an additional letter from the bank is not needed.

plz let me know if other wise..

It will be fine. In UK, the salary payment usually shows the company name, however this is not true outside UK. But make sure that the Bank statements (if used from India) need to be signed and rubber stamp sealed by a Bank official before this can be used for application purpose. Note: Seniors ple...
