Received Approval

[indian_in_uk]

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 the case for case worker.

I called HSMP team on 14th March, they told me that my application is refused as my experience was not considered to the graduate level one but I was also informed that as the case worker is new (Trainee) so this decision is not the final decision and the application is with the team manager for final approval. I waited for some days and on 21st March I was informed that my application is approved by team manager and documents are on its way.
I received my documents and approval letter on 24th March.

I would like to convey my thanks and regards to all my fellow members for their help and support and I wish all future HSMP applicants a very good luck.


Thanks and Regards,
Indian

Hi indian_in_uk,
Congrats. You must be relieved. I remember you saying that they have rejected your application. Miracles do Happen!!!

Thanks Narveer,

Yeah, I am relieved. I was planning for new application and was certain that I would claim earning points as well. I just called them and they informed me that this is approval.
This is the basic process these days - First the case worker checks all the documents and make his/her decision then it goes to manager for the final approval and then again to case worker to prepare the decision letter, ofcourse this happens if the case worker is new.

Thanks once again

Many hearty congrats to yu. i remember you worrying about only being granted 3 years for your experience, which was a bit confusing, glad to see that they saw their error and managed to correct. have you applied for FLR already

[indian_in_uk]

Thanks f2k,

I received my documents back on Thursday so because of easter holidays I was not able to apply for FLR yet but I will be sending the application tommorow. Just got all the documents ready.

I guess they are taking approx two weeks for passport stamping these days, Am I right?

Congrats.

Does anyone know if the 2 weeks in the above post for passport stamping is correct?

Take it easy....
