This is inconsistent with the proposed changes in HC321:From some private emails received from professionals in the immigration community in the UK, the following ESTIMATES for changes SEEM to be coming during March / by the beginning of April:
• a would-be highly skilled migrant "needs" to have "cash up-front" (assets) to bring family members
• these assets are intended to "prove the ability" to support themself, plus dependants
• the Home Office is using "salary bands" for countries of origin to scale points for salary
• for a rough estimate, in some cases a family of 4 or 5 may be asked asked to put up what the Home Office deems to be "the equivalent" of £80,000
Here you go.....Flanker, can you please post a link to this document?
Although I dont see much use of NHS but no reason why cant we use it (at least in theory), we pay national insurance and income tax as any citizens do.EdgeHillMole wrote:Can't help wondering if that £80K change will be applied "retrospectively" ("Retrospectively" = Anyone already in the UK under HSMP at the time of any HSMP extensions)
Not that it affects me - I came here by myself, no dependents. I've never even used the free education or NHS here.

Must admit i never realised there was an additional 'long-term viability' as well for EC (which i assume means "Entry Clearance")Likewise, the fact that these further requirements (referring to long-term viability) may be absent from HC321 and the earlier SoI, does not preclude their being incorporated into ECOs' practice, quite apart from the short-term maintenance funds requirements explicitly laid out in HC321.
