need advise - HSMP Dependent or HSMP ?

Post by kargha » Mon Jul 30, 2007 11:11 am

Hi I have received my HSMP approval letter. and I am thinking of two options to apply EC.
1-) I apply EC as HSMP visa, and my wife will apply as HSMP dependent visa
2-)My wife can also apply HSMP, if she gets an approval letter, we can apply HSMP visas dependently.

I am considering an HSMP visa, instead of HSMP dependent visa for my wife, because I have some concerns about the FLR process after starting to live in UK.

what will happen if I fail getting a FLR visa after living in one year in UK, will the HSMP visa my wife holding give another chance to further leave to remain?

I think ,if we both have HSMP visas, we will have two chances to apply for FLR. is that correct?

any ideas?
thanks

Wrong forum
In a few years time we'll look back on immigration control like we look back on American prohibition in the thirties - futile and counter-productive.

For info, the hsmp is now granted for two years, so you have more time to ensure that you meet the criteria for the extension.
