Congs for your success at HSMP but as someone mentioned you are moving from US to UK? That is interesting.

I think you can apply as a student and get approval as long as you score points needed. However i do not think you will score any points in the area of earnings or work experience.

Dear Friends, I applied for HSMP on 8th March 2005. I am an In-country applicant with nearly five years of experience. I claimed for 65 marks 1) 5- Under 28 2) 25 - Masters Degree 3) 35 - Nearly five years of experience I could have claimed points for earning but I dint as I dint want to complex th...

Dear All, Even my ack't carries referece# of this format. 03XXXX/01. Does /01 means, rejected!!. My application was delivered on Feb 16th 2005. Thanks, Rajesh. I dont know the connection but got my reference for request for review with something similar. My first reference number was 036*** and the...

I applied for the HSMP incountry... Dear Junior0300! Do You really think that pasting Your question so many times in different place on this forum will help You to have an aproval? Have some respect for the other board members. I suggest You not to waste Your time by waiting panacea from the board,...

I think there are now so many mistakes been made by the HSMP teams maybe because of the inexperience of the new staff. It could go either way so some members will benefit by the sped while others may not! however i think the problem is with the trainees now handling the various cases. Maybe you need...

I think you need to call them and get a more clear picture. Definetly if Royal Mail says they delivered then it was delivered. There many cases where they have not sent an ack, or reference number so all you have to do is call and maybe email them.

With the sped of processing i do not think they will send you the ack, and ref number. However give they some time about a week and then send email or call them. My experience was that i waited for about 10 days then sent emails. They replied on the 3rd one saying that a decision has been made and d...

The earnings points are for the 12 months prior to your application(Sept.2004). What you are doing now is not material to your application.

Congs VP and keep up the spirit.

My Case i sent them my transcipts and they awarded all the points claimed. Maybe they knew they would reject elsewhere!

Although am not an authority on this i think you can because to qualify you all need is to score 65 points and above. If you have worked in a graduate job for the last year and can score ponts in other areas then you can qualify.

I called the HSMP team today, and found out that my application was approved! :D This board has been extremely helpful, so thanks everyone. Here's some info on my application and timeline that may be useful to others: Date application received by HO: March 9, 2005 Credit card charged: March 9 1st c...

Capitalism has nothing to do with this - and it is the reason we want to live in this country. My review request was reviewed and granted - I didn't pay any review fees, in fact there were no review fees back in spring 2004 when I applied. Obviously hiring a qualified immigration advisor may be hel...

I would like to hear members opinion. Should one go for free review or pay. Why i ask this is that it may seem like they do not look at the free reviews at all since they are free and only consider paid ones. So has any one got reviewed free and got HSMP or its better to go for new application all t...

Kayalami YOUR QUESTIONS ARE ANSWERED. 1.On what date (month/yr will do) did you submit your HSMP application? -Application submitted on the 17/02/05 2. What are the dates/months in your 12 month income matrix? -January 2004 to December 2004. 3. Which/ how many months of the 12 in the income matrix a...

Sorry to hear that lucky123; but it seems to be a mistake/misunderstanding so I would go for an unpaid review first. However note that if you earned part of the last 12 months' income in a country and the other part in another country, points are not allocated "only" according to the lowe...

so which one do i use! i just come tu UK this year and applied using my country that is in category E where i have spent the best part of the year.

Hi all I just got my decision letter but its a refusal. Am planning to appeal immediately because i scored 50 points for my work experience and education. However when it reached my past earnings i think the case worker was mistaken so he said i should have earned the equivalent of 40,000 pounds las...

Hi Peter. Thanks for the imformation. Looks like your application was a few days after i sent mine, so although i have been told a decision was made and my letter and documents sent back, i never did receive the confirmation or the refernce letter. Now i wanted to know did you post directly to Shefi...
