Re: Some questions - probably FAQs

I dont mean to intrude on your post, but since the question was related, I thought I'd post here. I applied for my visa from Riyadh, Saudi Arabia. Received passport with the visa (entry clearance sticker), with all original documents. No mention of a BRP card. Which seemed a little odd to me, since ...

We all were happy and glad but then... news about april 2012 came it to the link of pdf file This is what I said: 'I think this...

What about if I wanted to apply for the PSW outside the UK let's say on the 4th of April 2011? Is there any specific changes I should be aware of?

Thanks
Nothing yet, we'll find out in 30 odd hours. For some speculations, check page 38 of this thread.

Did she perhaps send you a written portion on PSW sthat you can maybe share? Or perhaps if it was a verbal conversation, did she happen to mention something relating overseas applicants applying before April, 2012?

Thank you. Since this is a TA, I thought they would tweak it a bit. Guess, we'll know for sure in a weeks time. I hope things work out for all of us, one way or the other. I dont have any special insights nor anything, but based on how they have been managing this, I doubt there will be any major t...

So, basically does anyone think that the kind of policy they might come out with, it would be applicable right the next day (as shown by the tier 1 general), or do you think it would begin from 6th april (since most policies that change are usually implemented on that day). speculations?

I realize this speculative at this point, but in light of UKBAs previous policies and patterns (assuming there is one), I would appreciate a response, Do you think as the PSW requirements currently stand, whatever changes might be proposed, will they go into effect starting 6th of April, 2011 or 31...
