Hi,
I am a tier 1 (well HSMP) visa holder. My visa expires on the 19th of July 2010.
I would like to submit my renewal now. I have heard that the home office has been taking submissions from businesses and industry to change the tier 1 extension critera from us not needing a masters to actually needing one. From my sources industry pushed back really hard. But we know the home office and they do all sorts of crazy crap and you never know they might do this.
The other reason I want to submit is that I will be out of the country for a couple of months and would like to have it renewed before I go. I rang the home office today and they told me that it was fine to submit it 'whenever I wanted before the expiry'. I also asked one lawyer and they told me you couldn't submit it more than 5 weeks before expiry. Clearly this is wrong as I look through the posts here there is a lot of you guys submitting it in most cases two months before.
Wondering if I could get some inputs on what to do or other enquiries I should make from the forum members?
