Complete HSMP Application Example (download zip file)

[mjwall]

Hi there,

In March 2005 I submitted my HSMP application. I must first say a big thank you to everyone on www.immigrationboards.com who helped answer my questions over the past 3-4 months. I have really enjoyed our discussions and appreciate your help.

I would like to contribute to this board by supplying a copy of my completed application to you all for download. Before you get too excited I'll tell you what I actually claimed and my background.

- I am Australian and have been living in the UK for the past two years and applied a week before my visa was due to expire.

- Therefore I am a In-Country Applicant

- My profession is IT and I have been working in this field for the past 5 years


=================
POINTS CLAIMED
=================

- 5 points ( under 28 )
- 15 points ( Uni Degree )
- 35 points ( 4 years graduate experience )
- 25 points ( Income over £27k )
- 10 points ( Spouse having uni degree )
----------------------
90 points in total
----------------------


My application was presented in a 2 ring binder folder. Each section (see table of contents in downloaded file) was separated by a colored plastic divider. Each piece of evidence was displayed in a clear plastic sleeve. This also included the HSMP application form, separated by a plastic sleeve for each page.

You can download the zipped file here: http://www.box.net/public/yuzpl139e3

You may need to copy and paste the link into a new browser window and request it a couple of times. It's hard to find good free hosting these days!


NOTE: Please do not copy these documents word for word. I have provided this for your benefit to help compile and submit a solid case for the HSMP. I myself spent over 4 months collating documents and many weeks working on the presentation and organizing of the application. You don't need to pay a lawyer or consultant. Follow the guidelines and you will be fine!


Best of luck with your applications![/url]

I hope this helps.

Hi mjwall

Could you possibly show us the format of the reference letter you presented to claim the graduate level experience.
I have been refused twice on this. This could be a big help my email is adeel_qudoos_pk@hotmail.com

Hi mjwall,

I'm a new member of this forum, thinking of applying HSMP and now doing some research for this. Thank's a lot for the zip file, it's really helpful for me to get a compiled idea of what documents to collect.

For those who cannot download, just do as mjwall said, copy paste the link and then keep on trying. I had to this 3 times for the file to be downloaded

regards,

[mjwall]

Hi all,

If anyone has a website that I could host the file on could you please PM me and I shall send you the file and we can host it there.

With regards to graduate level experience, I had all my reference letters rewritten by past employers and each stated the following:

(a) Dates started and ended at the company.
(b) That each job required me to hold a bachelor's university degree.
(c) My role(s) in that job.
(d) My responsibilities at that job.

If you have read my evidence explanations you would have been aware that some of these letters were not on the company letterhead paper. I explained this and I guess the HSMP caseworker understood that I could not get them printed on letterhead paper due to either the company closing or no contact with the company.

Try and provide as much information as possible. Being honest and giving names, addresses, websites etc will be a huge help towards your case.

I hope this helps some of you. Once again if anyone has a website we can host this file on (or can we host it on www.immigrationboards.com) it will help you all out!

Very hard to find good free webhosting these days!!

Passports were returned via 'normal mail' on 16th April. Application approved! YAY!

Strange why the passports were not sent via registered mail. I know I should have sent a Special Delivery envelope but forgot!

Never mind got the residence permit now and also for my partner so all smiles here!!

This is great job, mjwall. This would really be a big help for all the new aspirants.
