Hello All

I sent my HSMP Extension application using new JR Forms today (18-Jul-2008). I also requested for Urgent Treatment as I am planning to go to my Home country as my wife is due in 2nd week of August.

Will keep you posted regarding my application progress.

FYI:
I spoke to Home Office and I was told that if I apply from abroad, it'll be treated as new application instead of extension.

Thanks for your reply. My visa is valid till mid September. I am planning to travel in the 1st week of Aug and stay in my home country for a month.

We need witness statements from all possible categories e.g. those who got ILR refusals, those who ar...
