Once you get visa approval you apply for stamping. In generic term, Entry Clearance is nothing but stamping on your visa. Nowadays, visa apporval and stamping is done in a simple process.kaushik wrote:In this page the person applying from outside UK, should have
"applying from outside the United Kingdom for permission to enter (known as 'entry clearance') in the highly skilled worker category."
What is entry clearance? Help on this will be really appreciated.
You don't have masters degree now. Hence you are not eligible to apply at the moment. Once you have masters degree you will be eligible to apply. Check the validity of your degree in PBS calculator.I am in Software industry in India and currently pursuing part time masters degree.
is part time MBA degree from Mumbai University will make me eligible i mean now for TIER1, u need masters degree. So, on that front will i be eligible?
Since this process is more on point based, it is irrelevant now whether you fall under highly skilled category or not. If you score enough points you can apply for it.I am in the field of Software Testing. Does this field is under Highly skilled?
Yes provided you have all relevant documents in place.So u mean to say as soon as I pass my final exam and if I have enough salary also at that time, I can apply?
You will need your degree certificate and not transcripts.Qun here is I will get my final marksheet from University within a month after completing the exam and final letter from University will be issued after 3-4 months. So, can I apply with final marksheet or do I have to wait for the convocation letter from University?
You can show income from multiple sources provided you have corroborative documents e.g. payslips,bank statement etc to support the evidences you are submitting.When we are showing income sources, Other than IT work, if I have income from Non-IT field, can we show that income, or only income relevant to IT [in my case] will be counted?

PBS is for highly skilled people .. Its just that in PBS, HO checks whether the applicant is highly skilled or Not then the visa stamp, both happens at one strech ... In HSMP its was a bit long process.. First apply for HSMP approval then for EC..
in PBS Tier1 , HO will look at your work experience and your earning, to grade you if you are Highly skilled ,then the visa stamp!!!

Most of the Indian Masters degrees are recognised by the PBS calculator.rohitktm wrote:I am not sure if the Master from India is eligible. I have master from Thailand from an American university. The point calculator showed 0 points even for this master. However, I find my second master from Australia do got 35 points. Thank god.
All one needs for Tier-1 is meet the minimum points. What else? It is irrelevant what area you work in or how skilled are you. Tell us if we are missing anything here. It is not a "skills shortage" visadima wrote:chetanojha wrote:kaushik wrote:Since this process is more on point based, it is irrelevant now whether you fall under highly skilled category or not.

If I am not mistaken, there used be a visa for low -skilled group.. I guess it do not exist now...chetanojha wrote:dima wrote:This is a Point Based system.

I am not aware of that.If I am not mistaken, there used be a visa for low -skilled group.. I guess it do not exist now...
PBS is for anybody/everybody who can score enough points irrespective of the skills or higher skills.So, PBS is mainly for High skilled group, even though its Point based.. something similar to Australian Point based system for PR visa, its mainly for the highly skilled lot...
Why not? A person who just passed out from his masters degree may not have enough experience but may have a higher package to score enough points. Work experience is not considered any more now.Do you think a low skilled person can reach their criteria of work experience and previous earnings, this is quite obvious
Master's degree has nothing to do with skills. You can be low-skilled even with Masters Degree.Masters Degree doesn't certify your skills... Also, Now its only mastres degree of Tier1!!
hey .. what are u saying?? work expeince does not matter?? It does matter very much.. applicants need to show their previous experience, reference letters, job offer letters for 3 years etc( for the first time HSMP tier1) to get HSMP Tier1. Why do think they need all these docs? Just to make sure that the aplicant is righly/ highly skilled ... UK do not need low skilled applicants..chetanojha wrote:I am not aware of that.If I am not mistaken, there used be a visa for low -skilled group..

Only person seems to be confused is you. Don't think you are reading Guidance Notes for Tier-1(G). You can shout the same thing again and again from roof-top but that's not gonna help.Read the guidance notes and then comment on things.dima wrote:hey .. what are u saying?? work expeince does not matter??

You guys are a bit confused with PBS .. Its mainly to filter out low-skilled group...
Its just that in the previous HSMP applicant need to get HSMP approval, then the EC stamp...
Now in PBS , both happen together...thats only diffenece.. and also They have complately removed the Low-skilled people getting into UK..
( as I have said , there used to be another visa section for low-skilled.. if you can check the HO link)
