As long as they are salaries that show up for tax purposes and on the salary statements, they will be acceptable.

I guess 24k is active enough. Previously someone wrote that they had only a temp position for 3 months or so and were granted extension.

So even in fact i no longer have enough points, it doesn't matter? As I have current job in UK. If I just keep this job, ( the salary is too low to earn any point), I'm still counted as economically active, right? The renewal of HSMP visa after one year is not assessed by points system but on the b...

If you otherwise require a visa to enter any European country, then you will need a visa to do so even if you have a valid UK visa (HSMP, Work permit etc.). Only Switzerland allows you to visit without a visa provided you hold a valid UK visa which is good for at least 6 months. A Schengen visa will...

I am British Council Chevening Scholar (only one scholarship awarded in a year for the MBA program by the british goverment) and I pursued this in one of the top 50 schools listed in the HSMP MBA Provision. My first question is " would this qualify for points under the significant achievement ...

I think a previous post by BASKEY addresses this question.

Depending on the income one will have to pay income tax and national insurance (made up of health insurance and state pension). Additionally, one will have to pay council tax depending on the property you live in and water and sewerage charges. A car will attract road tax and drive around London and...

No. I didn't and it did not have any adverse effect.

Does that mean - I can work under HSMP (without any restrictions) up to 6 months, then apply to FLR ? (the reason I am asking - I need to travel soon and my wife is forcing me to get a holiday in April - I can apply on HSMP then have a holiday and once it approved - get a new job and fly to custome...

Thanx a lot for your answers... Can I ask you to explain the quoted thing - do you mean - until I sorted out my FLR connected to approved HSMP - HO still count my status as WP ? As mwazir said, if you do not apply for FLR within 6 months of HSMP approval then you can continue with your present empl...

What is/was your designation while you are doing your Ph.D. For eg. if your appointment letter mentions it as xxxx Fellow then you claim points on that basis and don’t bring Ph.D. into the picture at all. Thus, you will have points for Master’s degree plus 3-4 working experience in research (detaile...

Machine generated bank statements sent by banks are accepted without signatures whereas if you print out the statements from the internet some institution want to see the bank stamp and signature. So you fine with the statements that you have sent.

One of the criteria to get spouse/partner points is that the person in question must not have been granted permanent settlement in the UK which provides all rights of a citizen. Since a British citizen already has the right to live and work in the UK, by extension of the above rule it could be argue...

1. Currently I am working on the work permit and have applied for HSMP. After I get HSMP and FLR(IED) approval, will the Home Office inform about approval of FLR(IED) and cancellation of current work permit to my current employer even if my employer does not contact them. I am worried that my emplo...

4. As far as I know, the HSMP is not a visa, denial of HSMP does not represent a denial of a visa.....the EC will be the visa...but you might want to check that, in any case, not telling them won;t help, they have a system that will match your history (date of birth and name) From HSMP guidance not...

tvt....do you know if it is compulsory to get the FLR sticker trasferred to a new passport or is it OK if carry along the old and new passports. I dont want to go thro the pain of send my passport to the HO

It says Residence Permit and has a similar design to Residence permits issued by other EC member states – part of the unification exercise I suppose.

I finally received my passport with FLR yesterday after request for urgent treatment. Thus, my 243 days HSMP saga of 152 days for HSMP approval and another 91 days for FLR is over. Pheeeeew.....

I would be happy to see the rule which says both have to arrive together the first time. Consider the case, where the wife after getting EC clearance as dependent gets a call for job interview in the UK. Does she have to get a separate visa to travel for the job interview? Or will she need the HSMP ...

If both apply for EC at the same time, the wife will get the dependent visa. Consider the case where both travel to the UK, but the wife gets a job, does it mean that she cannot take it up as long as the HSMP holder does not get one? Along similar lines, after getting the EC, the HSMP holder has for...

I think the dependent is allowed to do all the 3 things as long as your friend retains his visa status and wife

From HSMP guidance notes: If you have lived and worked in more than one country during the past twelve months we will normally assess your income against the country where you have spent the longest period,on a pro-rata basis.
