October 2019 Restricted COS - PLS DO NOT POST VISA APP RELATED QUESTIONS HERE!!!

Post by CR001 » Wed Oct 09, 2019 8:54 am

Members are reminded that this topic is ONLY for OCTOBER 2019 RCoS information and outcome.

DO NOT POST Any reference to your potential sponsor, you will have your forum access restricted if you do.

Please read the posts BEFORE asking about how to calculate points and also see post below with the points table first. S

DO NOT post repetitive low value posts, such "Any update anyone", "still waiting" etc. They will be removed. When members have an update, I am sure they will post one.

DO NOT post visa application process questions. Start your own topic for that if you are lucky enough to get RCoS approval.

I monitor this thread many times a day, so please be aware of the above when you post.

See HO Guidance for Staff on RCoS Allocations (click) before asking questions that this guide can answer.

I just got RCoS this afternoon around 4PM. Applied in late August, I was supposed to get RCoS in September, but it was delayed until today. Good luck to everyone still waiting!

My to-be employer applied for mine in Sep, so I'm waiting on it in the Oct quota. Shouldn't they be out by now? Also for some reason they didn't collect much personal information from me (like passport copy/details), is it normal for RCoS?

Yes because HO asked all these details from my employer last Friday including RLMT

Got my rCOS today following a great deal of stress and anxiety. (Expected to get it in the September round so returned from the UK and arranged accommodation, flights which all had to be changed).

Apparently, there have been some changes for PhD level positions which means CoS requests can now be made at any time - not just in the monthly rounds. Sounds good in the long run, but caused a big delay for me.

I'm due to start on November 1, was fortunate to be able to do my biometrics today. Hoping everything goes smoothly from here on.

HO requested RLMT and information about my visa status as I'm in the UK

My employer submitted screenshots of job advertisement + my visa status and 3 months salary payslips

Just wondering is that enough because he submitted all information this Tuesday but I have not heard anything back

Any idea upto what RCoS will be granted for Oct 2019 allocation.
My employer submitted my application before 5th Oct. Also done the RLMT in Sep 2019. Still waiting for RCoS :(

I ask my HR and HR told still no information received from immigration team. what is monthly allocation for month of Oct 2019. Is it 1,500 application, am i right?
