When I sent my review request, HSMP's fax was not working, so I just sent it through email, and called the following day to confirm they have received it.

Good luck.

I think everything is possible. But keep in mind that it will be a different case worker, and he/she might not have the same opinion as the one who dealt with your first application.

You can call them and ask for the decision. They usually tell it on the phone.

Good luck, I hope you receive good news!

wowow you have been refused three times and you just got approved??
Share with us a little more of your HSMP history pls...

Thank you!

Please! Share your thoughts!

Hi I understand candidates are allowed 2 reviews. Does a new application count as a review? I am waiting for the result of my review, if it's negative again I am uncertain if I will apply for another free review or try a fresh application with additional documents. If I am allowed to send a new appl...

Hi Bako,

What was the reason given for the 2 refusals?

Congratulations!!

It sure gives us hope! (still waiting for the outcoming of my review request).

Hi, I sent HSMP Team the AWB (Air way bill), which is a form where the contents of the package have to be declared and it has to be signed. As HSMP does not sign any documents, I filled it out myself, signed and sent it via DHL to my casework, and asked him to give this form along with my documents ...

No, I am not claiming points for education. HSMP Guidance says: 7.2.1 Graduate level work experience would normally be a role within a company or institution that would require you to have a minimum educational standard of a UK first-degree level qualification or equivalent. You do not necessarily h...

Thank you, amhilde!

I'm trying to be optimistic...
Let's wait and hope for a positive review

Good luck on your application!

Yes, I agree... something is not right... I think my application has been incorrectly assessed... Because I can't find a reasonable reason for my application to be refused... The lack of the address on the letter head paper is understandable, but not enough to justify a refusal, as all the informati...

Hi, Thank you for your replies. I'm sorry to insist on the subject, it's just that I want to get things clear so as not to make the same mistakes again. I called HSMP and the person who answered the phone read to me the notes the caseworker wrote. As far as she could see, all the information was ver...

I just find it amazing that my work experience was discarded because my reference letter didnt have the address of the company... even though they sucessfully verified all the infomation contained on it directly with my employer... Besides, why bother checking if it cannot be used?

Ok, I will wait the result of my free review, I have sent it with an urgent request (I have a job offer), so it will probably be dealt with in the next couple of weeks. If it's negative, I will go for a paid review.

Oh, something else I forgot to mention, my current employer (this one with letterhead without printed address), is a government institution. Don't know if it changes anything...

But what about the rest of the evidence... And the fact that they were able to verify all the information...

That's my point! They DID verify it! They contacted ALL my employers!!! besides I sent the corporate contract and the employer contract!!! ALL ORIGINALS with translations done by a sworn translator and certified by the brazilian office of foreign affairs!! That's the official letterhead of the compa...

I received my docs back via courier (DHL), they were inside a buble plastic envelop. There weren't damaged as far as I can see.

It had the contact details of my manager! Besides, the local embassy contacted me and asked me to provide all contacts from all my previous employers, I did it, and all my employers were contacted by email and provided all the required information. Everything was easily verified! besides, I also pro...

Hi My hsmp application was refused last week. On the refusal letter, they said one of my employers references was not on letterhead paper and they also didnt consider it graduate. It is obviously graduate level work, and I have already applied for a free review. But what concerns me is the letterhea...

I have sent my request for review by e-mail, and kept calling until someone confirmed it was received and forwarded to the review team.

I've sent it with my application.
I'm not sure if it's required though.

Isnt there a way you could get other originals?
Maybe you should not wait for home office to find them (if that ever happens), try to get those documents re-issued. Is it possible?
