No need to panic. You never really had to put an out of country address for in country initial HSMP application in such a case. I am an HSMP dependant and applied for initial HSMP approval in feb 2008. I have got the approval in march and now need to go back to my home country for switch (I have called home office and confirmed this).
I think this procedure remains the same for tier-1.

Mate, slight problem there. The rules changed as of 1st of March, so if your application was received in February as you say, it would have been processed (for the initial HSMP certificate anyway) under the old system.
I'm after clarification as to whether you are required to leave the country to submit the application for the HSMP/Tier 1 certificate now, as well as the Entry Clearance...
