HSMP/Tier 1 Extension

Post by Duvvuri » Tue Sep 22, 2009 11:19 pm

I am on HSMP visa from March 2008 which is due to expire in March 2010.
I am a self employed in UK since 1 year and at the moment I am out of the country since july 2009.

And I will be back to UK again in January 2010. Will this cause any problem for my HSMP/Tier 1 extension which is due in march 2010.

I am sure I will be able to meet the points required for HSMP/Tier 1 extension.

Please let me know your suggestions.

Thanks

I don't remember seeing any questions on the Tier 1 (General) application form asking dates in and out of UK. It is my understanding that as long as you meet the points criteria and satisfy the case worker of the same you're golden. However - it might be an issue for you down the road for ILR or whatever replaces it.

Is your earning being deposited in a UK bank account? Are you paying the required tax and NI on it?

If yes, then there shouldn't be a problem.

I think you are fine for extension(as long as you have got points section covered).
But you might/will face issue while applying for ILR as you are away from UK for more then 3 months at a stretch.
