Blueberries,

Mind telling when exactly u submitted your application and how long did it takes to know the news?
i think most ppl wait 6-8weeks for to get their visa.

Thanks for sharing.

the refusal was stated this way:

you have claimed 50 points for your COS as you state the position senior carer is on the shortage occupation list. however checks show that the position senior carer is not listed as shortage occupation

but when i checked it was there

thanks

blueberries,
where are you applying from? is the employer a nursing home? the job title should be 'skilled senior carer'

[blueberries]

yes im supposed to work in a nursing home

as per my employer there is no choice for skilled senior carer just senior carer

i filed for admiistrative review last november25

[smiles345]

if the employer is willing to give £7.80/hr as wages , why can he add skilled in the job title. you are likely to get a refused again. the case worker goes along with the guidlines only.

[blueberries]

but as per my employers explanation there is no "skilled senior carer" from the choices on the computer they actually sent a letter explaining that. and they also revised my offer letter and have indicated that my position is under skilled snior carer

You are correct, there seems to be no code for senior carer. If there is no exact match then UKBA guidance is "use the nearest one", and that seems to be what your employers have done.

This comes down to UKBA's misguided use of an existing SOC occupation database which is inflexible.

I would say that if UKBA don't offer a code for senior carer then how on earth can anyone claim you or your employer has made a mistake?

Skilled senior care workers earning over 7.80 per hour ARE still on the shortage occupation list. The visa officer seems to have made a mistake. Complain to the Entry Clearance Manager at that post. I don't believe the job title has to be "skilled senior carer" - I don't see that. It's like saying "you're not a brain surgeon, you're a skilled brain surgeon". If you are a senior carer and you are skilled then you meet the criteria.

hey blueberries any news update on ur admin review and which country have you applied it from??????????????

[smiles345]

the jobtitle should be skilled senior carer as per the code 6115 and that has been removed from the shortage occupation from 6th april onwards.

if you read the relevant code of practice it clearly says skilled senior carer
