Thanks Mightypower I am mostly concerned regarding query 2 below 2) My initial time i.e. 1st time entry in UK till i got job i.e. initial 8-9 months from 29 August 2010 - 29 March 2011 (I keep coming to UK and searching for job and once it was 109 days out of country as well) , though i dont want t...

thanks
Topic is already being discussed in sticky thread of Tier 1 General Ext only until 2015.
also request you to care to join FB group whose link is in my signature

Relax guys, we still have ample time before thinking of such moves, and i am confident we won't need it. For Info: switching to Tier-2(General) will keep us on track for ILR, and allow to complete remaining time. Tier-2(General) is work visa whose applicants can go for ILR after 5 yrs period. But as...

@Go12 respect your enthusiasm :) have you joined the FB group? same question goes to @tier1extend? personally i won't encourage such suggestion as we need to go for other options first like personal contributions, asking help from HSMP forum and moreover loans for such objectives may have its own di...

But not moe than 180 days Absences hope it's clear

yes as far as i can make sense of calculating continuous period in UK doc.

tier1extend wrote:guys what's this 90 day continuous out of country rule now.

I thought this continuous absence is only broken by 180 days per year. Has something changed recently now ?

sorry for confusion. It was there earlier, but i cant see any longer there. Good it's not there and so not cause of concern

I didnt get your last line "and rest are planning to go in a year so don't care to come together" may be after all that is happening I have can't concentrate anymore :( :) In one word: disunity . Even i lost some sense and feeling so angry since yesterday when i saw these changes. clarify...

@mir I can understand, but don't lose hope so soon. Let's keep trying. Most of people who are concerned are those who still have around 2 years left to be eligible for ILR, and rest are planning to go in a year so don't care to come together. @Go12 may be my bad english :( 90 days will break the per...

@tier1extend don't worry i am with you till last :) Hope you haven't breached 90 day continuous out of country rule? My only worries are threefold: (1) they stop allowing early extensions In fact home Office forcing otherwise, by pushing us to go for early one before April 2015 in-spite we all havin...

I entered in May 2011 :lol: you too are standing before me in queue. just can't see anyone behind me Just a note to everyone who still have more than a yr for ILR to be careful about 2 things 1) floating criminality threshold rules. Any mistake and inclusion into Criminal record will postpone ILR e...

You are right. I don't think HO has even given slight consideration to these scenarios. I hope atleast we all get 3 years extension in our last application. We all should get 3 yrs irrespective of individual cases now. this issue has been tackled in various threads. I don't know why they want to st...

Hi Argus7.......You've mentioned its Official now. What makes you say that? Couldn't find anything on UKBA website. Read somewhere on Imm. board that it will be published on UKBA website after 6th April 2014. Argus7 is RIGHT check Policy guidelines updated today here at: https://www.gov.uk/governme...

I think most of us will make the ILR boat if we go for early extensions. But It becomes very unfair if we get a minor conviction just before ilr and then have no place to go. Exactly that's the point!! a simple traffic offence or a council dispute can escalate to court which will surely postpone IL...

You can extend as early as possible, even now. I had same plan of going for extension early, since mine expiring on June-2015. BUT i suggest to go even earlier like in Jan 2015, because of possibility of backlog of Tier-1 applications on last date rush. Previous earning applies from date of applicat...

@Go12 ok thnx for info, i entered on July 2011, so technically i am behind you in queue. Reason i asked, if we don't mess up with timelines or rules, we should be OK. It seems like i am one of last Tier-1 to enter? @amahed thanks for joining. Since it's closed group wait for Admin Ram Sury to accept...

@Go12
just curious, when did you enter this country?
Also have you joined FB group, link i included in my signature?

Now it's clear
WTF with this govt???
Request to all members to join FB group (link in my signature) and join against this injustice

@amahmed85, @Go12 is absolutely right. We are very well aware of link you just shared and we both were concerned for further news based on this. Even there was news for Fee increase which again NOT officially implemented yet, but good news is we can't see any change in rule, and hopefully wont for c...

@Go12 it makes 2 of us, and its usually not possible to miss important news by 2 people? this time even Fee was not increased, and for any such change home office declares well ahead of time, which is in all our case is 6th Apr. So according to me its good news for us Tier-1 (General) visa holders. ...

as the hom eoffice has decided to end the tier-1 ext by 6th april 2015 This is second post declaring such thing without any link or source? I have tried searching in gov website but no success finding any such info. Looks to me like scaremongering. Please don't post anything here without any basis ...

Be warned and plan ahead of time.

SOURCE?
I am not able to search it out anywhere.

Ashish why don't you get in touch with HSMP Forum??
check contact here in: http://www.hsmpforumltd.com/contact.html
most of members here in this Forum are Tier-1 visa holders, post-HSMP so alternatively try HSMP forum, they definitely can guide you.

Stop panicking man, it's not yet official.
They will surely declare by Apr06 and then we all can panic together

Check my signature, and join the FB group to discuss further for any possible legal actions.

We need more supporters for this. Please show your support. I'm all in favour of fee increases if it deters the chronically underfunded. The foreign bride seekers, international relationships etc, you see plenty on here seeking to import their inamorata having visited them once or even never met th...

Whom you are refering to as "chronically underfunded"?
