Guys,

Thanks to all. Finally my initial application has been approved.
This is second time I applied for HSMP and got this time.
First time I applied with my Degree Cetificate but I did provide all other university documents, ANYWAY they refuse it. I ddi explain them through Review, but they rejected it again.

This time I have to get Degree and applied again and got this in no time.

Here are my time lines.

1. Applied from NZ 23-Aug
2. Documents recieved 28-Aug
3. Fee Debited 29-Aug
4. Reference 31-Aug
5. Application Approved 11-Sep
6. Documents Recieved 17-Sep

Thanks to all (Seniors) and all Learners like me. I really appreciate support from all of you and I will try help others as much as I can.

Now for EC, I am still not sure is this right time to go to UK? seems like not many jobs in Nov-Dec, Any brief suggestions?

Many Thanks
Kaff

This is regarding pay slips.
My employer has a policy of not signing the pay slips.Whats the alternative for that.
So can I try and get the salary slips printed on company head paper.
Will that work, Please help?

JD,
ARAMEX is a courier company. U can get the addresses of Aramex thru Internet, their site is www.aramex.com. They can pick the documents back without having any signature from Shipper side and u can pay the airway bill at the time of collection. Enjoy.....

Thanks for the Info but they don't seem to have office in Islamabad, Pakistan.

So they will have to arrange third party courier and I'll have to pay in advance. If this is the case the MBE is better? what you think?

Thanks,
JD

Dear J,
It would be my pleasure to share my documents list with u but I am applying from Saudi Arabia and my list would be different than those applying from India. My list which i obtained form British Embassy, Riyadh, is quite simple, even they didnt ask for HSMP initial application copy. You can find many list for India available on the thread "EC application....My Findings". Best of Luck in EC as well.
