Nothing yet, but my application was received on June 24th. Don't know if points have any bearing. I think having the necessary documentation in the order the HSMP team wants to see it is more important. Yes, Crossover12. I totally agree. The waiting is getting very hard... Hopefully all of us will k...

Basically for my family of six(which is myself, spouse & 4 kids), we were told we should have a minimum of 3,000 pounds a month on our 3 month worth of bank statements. They want to make sure you can support yourself & family. The budget is a good idea as long as you know whereabouts in the ...

:) What I did was submit 12 months worth of payslips, tax return, and 3 mos worth of bank statements. Basically, we were told by our immigraton consultant the 12 mos payslips and tax forms prove your income you are claiming. The 3 months worth of bank statements prove that you have income to support...

I wonder if they will ever update the HSMP message part beyond 26 weeks. Since so many are now past that mark from June, July, and Aug.

Yes, I agree. But any movement is better than none at all like it has been for the past 8-9 weeks.

Maybe they will move at a faster pace soon.

What is really ironic is when you look at the sentence Data on applications approved for the period November 2003—June 2004 is incomplete as a number of these applications have not yet been decided. How can Home Office include it then in their figures? This is from Nov 2004 when they were still p...
