No news as yet:( Khan Hi Khan, What r u waiting for then? why don't u lift the phone and call them up? i am sure that your decision must have been taken by now as some July-August applic...

I think they will reject your case on the basis of your work experience letter from your previous employer. I don't think so because you have - Additional evidence of graduate level experience for the both letters – just printouts of job adverts for similar jobs requiring at least a master’s degree...

Hi dear,

Congratulations for your aproval. I was even worried that whether they have changed their policy of telling the decision on phone, but thats good that at elast you got to the right number this time and to the right person.

Dear Hemant, I don't agree with this, this might have been a wrong number and someone woudl have jut played with you. Did the lady at the other end ask for your reference no.? adn d...

hi dear wazzmaan,

WEHere did u read so that they "MAY OR MAY NOT ACCEPT", so far as i know they clearly state that they DO NOT ACCEPT ANY ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS FOR REVIEW, if u want to send additional documents, you need to send a new application alongwith applciation fee.

U can try getting Demand Draft issued from your local bank on some bank in UK. I did the same thing, and which is expected to be cleared in a couple of days.

guest, u can speak to the EC people there and explaint hem that the HSMP approval was not for your wife and kids only, u were the principal beneficiary/ awardee of that letter. IT was u who got aproved under HSMP and they have already granted u EC, so based on thsi argumenet u can get the HSMP Aprov...

If u sent an email, plz. tell me what all information u sent in that mail and whats the email address of the charging team. 2. U said charging team ...

nomsheen, i think NO. this can only be considered as a self employment, and not as a significant achievement. For significant achievements, they have predefined criteria given in the guidelines, FAQs and HSMP Application form, apart formt hese, they don';t consider anything. I had even some achievem...

hi vinod, SO far as i know, HSMP is a family work permit, i mean, in HSMP both, husband and wife are allowed to work, and at the end of first year, you should be economically active as a family, u must have survived and not taken any Governemnt help, regardless who earns and who doesn't. SO, in your...

hi Marfbr,

THey just mention that "decision has been taken" if u r communicating with Emails, but if u call them, they can tell u what is the decision.

So, if u want to know the exact decision, u must call them and talk to them over phone.

hi friends, IN Stones case, i can see another strong point and the reason behind his feeling to get her pregnant wife with him is that, if his chuild is born in UK, then the child would get the Citizenship of UK by birth, isn't it? IF this is the case, then its worth travelling with some surplus mon...

Dear Aromated, So far as i know, their guidelines say that your one year + 3 years will count from your date of entry to UK, not the date of yoru EC granted. SO if u wish, u can even spend two moe months in india, as u have to leave the country within three months of the date on VISA Stamp. And once...

Dear Saeed, I don't think that salary has to do anythign with your senior level job. They can even understand the salary levels in developing country, and it even depends on which size of company you are working with. SO don't worry for that. If u have provided all the documents fdor your points tha...
