Within 28 days before is the EARLIEST you can apply. You can apply after you reached 5 years residence up to and including before your current visa expires.

amazing! Just what i wanted to hear. thank you!

Hi there, this forum has been super helpful in the past, and even helped me to reverse a refusal due to an error by the UKBA! So, I come again to ask a question and clarification. I have tried searching for this on this forum and couldn't find an answer. But first, about my status: I have been in th...

I'm in the UK on a Tier 2 general visa, and my wife is here as a dependant. We are planning to go to Greece on holiday, and in the preparing for our application. We have got all the necessary documents outlined on the VFS website - flights, accommodation, bank statements, insurance, proof of occupat...

Here's the reference thread to what i had to go through. http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=121317 Also - if they asked not to appeal, this means they are considering reversing the decision. Pretty much what happened with me - though i had already sent my appeal before they could reply...

If the OP does not appeal and the OP is unable to email the caseworker or the email elicit no response or UKBA refuses to change the decision, the OP will become an overstayer in the UK from the day after the deadline for appeal submission. There goes the prospect of ILR down the drain!! So, please...

I just tried to email the person but received a bounce back from her email. I suspect she might be an intern or assigned to the team temporarily. Any suggestion ? a) try emailing again using the email address Jeeves suggested firstname.lastname@homeoffice.gsi.gov.uk b) send a fax, there may be a fa...

Sorry, I missed reading the "dependant" in the opening post. Response edited. Both of you will need to apply for entry clearance from outside the UK (India). sorry if i'm mistaken - but has the rules changed with regard to this? as I had a PSW (tier 1) and then switched to Tier 2 General ...

Just a quick update for my situation. They are currying out the RLMT, I will send out my application next week. They will use priority scheme, and I will receive my result in 10 days. So I will hand in my notice when they assign me the CoS. Hope it helps. Yen It's always best to hand in your notice...

Going through the same thing. Though the first thing i told them about was my visa situation. Therefore they had HR and legal working on it right at the beginning. So, it's taken 4 weeks for the RMLT now, and by next week i'll be sending my application by post. It will take around 4 more weeks to pr...

Shouldn't be a problem. When my brother applied the background in his photo was too dark. and they emailed him asking to send in new photos. also in my case - they refused my visa because they made a mistake where they thought my job number was not the correct NQF6. i had to just email them (instead...

So an update on my status. I have been following this thread from the begining, and i sent my application without a CoS. My company got their registration accepted only after i sent the application, and issued an unrestricted CoS afterwards. Everything appeared to be going okay, though just before c...

It seems that your caseworker is not familiar with the correct procedure. refer to Greenie's post on 11 Jan: it is not up to you to withdraw the appeal and you shouldn't do this. Ukba should withdraw the decision, and notify the tribunal, that is the correct procedure. If you withdraw the appeal an...

Update on this situation. Just got this email from my caseworker: I have contacted the appeals team and they have confirmed receipt of your appeal. I have sent a request to withdraw your appeal based on the fact that UKBA will reconsider your application on team. I have also asked for any costs to b...

Dude, my advice, apply AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I did the same mistake and waited till late. as a result got caught to all the sponsor license registration delays, plus my visa got refused (being sorted now - UKBA made a mistake, and have accepted the mistake and reviewing my application as we speak) an...

I have heard from few sources that if you are currently on PSW visa you can switch to Tier 2 if you are getting a salary of or over £20,000 and also if your company holds a sponsors licence. Is it true? if it is then what paperworks are required by the company to process this visa ? Yeah it is. Tha...
