Congrats Golauk!

Could you share with us how much funds you showed for EC?

Any other documents that you submitted in support of your application?

Hi I had applied for HSMP in Nov 04. Since my student visa was expiring in Dec 04 I had to send my FLR application before the student visa expired. My Nov 04 application was refused recently and was awarded 55 points only.I then made a fresh application which has been approved. My original FLR filed...

Thanks dhavaluk

Hi

Can anyone tell me how much time it takes to get entry clearance from New Delhi, India?

Thanks

Hi

Thanks for your reply.

Now if my FLR comes back with a refusal will they stamp my passport? Will this create a problem when I apply for EC from my home country?

How many days do I have to leave UK after FLR refusal?

Regards

Hi

My FLR is not refused yet but since HSMP is refused FLR is likely to be refused

regards

Hi My HSMP was refused a day back and I am planning to submit a new application. Meanwhile the FLR application I had submitted separately is likely to be refused. My question is "How many days do I have to appeal against the FLR decision?" If I submit a new application to HO, say tomorrow,...

good to hear that and congratulations!!!!!!!!

just to get an idea of the progress of the Q, could you tell us the dates when you applied

thanks & best of luck with your EC

yes you can apply for hsmp while on student visa. however to be able to switch to hsmp visa, you must have graduated. so it is better if you apply for hsmp closer to your date of graduation. nowadays it is taking anything from 1-4 weeks for hsmp approval. keep your fingers crossed that this time fra...

ITR is a must, form 16 can be done away with provided you submit last 12 months salary slips.

In addition to ITR, Sal slips, a statement from your employer giving gross salary and its breakup (on letter head) will do good

FORM 16, a specific statement from your employer detailing your past 12 months earnings and the most important is your Income tax return

Passport or its copy is not required with HSMP application. Passports are required to be submitted when you go for FLR or EC

Thanks f2k. What reason should I give for urgent treatment in the scenario I have mentioned?

Thanks

Hi

Can anyone help on this please

Thanks

I am in country applicant and applied in Oct 04. I also sent in application for FLR (IED) before my student visa expired. No decision has been taken on either. My question is : If I were to withdraw my Oct 04 application (the HSMP one), let the FLR application be where it is and submit a new one (as...

I applied begining of Oct 04 and hoping this ordeal gets over fast. Hey ameba i share the same thoughts as yours.

hope everything works out good

first of all congratulations

for the benefit of members on this forum could you give details when applied, when approved etc etc

Congratulations!!

Did you during this time i.e. between July 04 and now request the hsmp team to consider your application early or something like that or did it happen in its normal course

thanks

as chess said - a tricky situation! you have the following options: 1. In FLR (IED) write your current situation as HSMP and send it with the required documentation such as passports, bank statements etc. 2. Speak to your case worker and see if they can convert your In-country HSMP approval to an Ou...

hi my view is that wife goes in as dependent of main hsmp applicant. while applying for EC you have to substantiate funds availability for two people now, till such time one of you gets a job - say for 3-6 months. it doesnt matter if points for wife were claimed or not, as hsmp dependent she can wor...

hi

good suggestions but how do we bell the cat, that's the question.

or put in another way who will do it

regards

yes that's correct, people who submitted applications around xmas, HO has started looking at those after they reopened after xmas

hi chess i have been talking to my agent who filed my application. she confirmed that HO is looking at cases filed pre-Xmas and therabouts and taking decisions on that. moreover a friend of mine who submitted his application on december 20/21, 2004 got the decision yesterday. that is 4 weeks respons...

My HSMP application (submitted about 4 months back) has not yet come up for a decision and looking at the published time lines - there's gonna be a wait of another 3 months (if luck is on my side!!!). Meanwhile I have to travel out of UK and by the time I return, my visa would have expired. Is it po...

thanks for a quick response!! if you dont mind me asking (too many questions!): say if on day 1: receive hsmp/flr refusal how many days are given to make an appeal? how many days are given to leave the country? and if yet again, the appeal is unsuccessful, how many days are given to leave the countr...
