Hello All, this is for my friend who is having Tier1 Visa valid till end of Nov -2012. He is currently in India and is coming to Uk with a job in hand. His salary for 6 months is getting all the needed points. But still need few clarifications. 1) Will there be any problem to renew his Visa with jus...

If you had waited for 7 working days from the date of your approval letter, i would suggest to contact UKBA.

It is unfortunate that your case is taking long time. There is no other alternative other than to wait. They will only answer if the application date is more than 6 months. Hopefully they will take a decision in the next 10 days. TIG.

In order to be safe, i would suggest to go for Passport renewal. especially with homeoffice it will be better to avoid even the smallest mistake.

i had a similar situation. still thought to renew the passport and then went for visa renewal.

if its incorrect on previous passport then better mention that on the covering letter of extension app that you got it corrected in the new I have got the BRP today with place of birth . Now i need to change my passport and BRP for the correct place of birth. I am not sure whether homeoffice accept...

Hi All, I have not seen a bio metric card. i am yet to receive my bio metric card. just wanted to know, whether the bio metric card will have place of birth written on it. my place of birth is wrong in my passport which i will change this month. if place of birth is changed in passport should we nee...

Is n't there a way to voice our concerns? I am sure they wont listen to our concerns. Accepting the new fee after voicing our concerns will make us feel slighly contented.

Also,
Is there an option to convert Tier1 to Tier2?

Your Bank Statement can be used as proof for the Payment. Not sure if they will give any receipt.

UKBA themselves have asked for the usage of additional form for adding more addresses. It is natural for people to have temporary accommodation. Better to declare openly and have peace.

frankly, it is not straightforward. i tried and finally called the phone number given for Telephone booking. if some one can spoon feed, it will be beneficial to everyone
thanks

If I correctly undestand from this link http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/newsfragments/tier-2-5-1-elr people who will apply for extension of their Tier 1 after 6 April 2012 will be requested to retake English tests. What do you think? Hi , Will this change impact people going for ILR f...

IT will be better if Passport is renewed before going for visa extension.

Is there a limit for postal orders? - I need to get one for £2600 for PEO.

There is no limit on Postal orders. You can buy in multiples of 250 £ and the last Postal order worth 100£.
