Where did you get the date April 6th? From the research I've done, the Home Office has said an annoucement regarding the Tier 1 MAC recommendations will be made in "Early 2010".renzokuken wrote:

I suspect you may have to go through NARIC to determine if it is or isn't. My assumption (after reading through the complete MAC recommendations PDF a while ago), is that a post graduate diploma isn't valid, because the minimum requirement is a Bachelors degree and a post-grad diploma isn't a degree. The PDF is fairly clear on the Bachelor's degree requirement. Of course I could be completely wrong, since I'm brand new to this.sumsum wrote:i was reading in the new rules. that for masters there are 35 points and for bachlors is 30. does any one know wheather post graduate diploma from uk university is equavalant to bachlors degree. can i apply for tier 1 genral, according to the new rules??????????

On April 6th, with an annoucement be made regarding what they will do with these MAC recommendations? Or will that be the date that MAC recommendations are implemented?
Thanks. Most interesting. Are you able to tell me where you and your agent is based? i.e. Are you currently UK based? Don't need to give me specifics.renzokuken wrote:the agent in the call centre told me, when I asked the reason why they suspended the appointment booking for AprilGeneNZ wrote:

Do you have any other information, or is that all your agent told you? More specifically, is April 6th the date an annoucement will be made, or is April 6th the date changes will be implemented?
Any information you can provide would be most useful, since I'm currently awaiting these changes to determine what my next move is (and I'm getting restless sitting around waiting ).
Thanks in advance!
I fully understand this . But from my point of view, as an applicant that is directly affected, anything is better than nothing. I've been waiting for this annoucement since the start of January, and from that period until now, the waters have been dead silent. Only in the past few days (since they made implemented the Tier 4 changes) has there been some sort of noise regarding this matter.Markie wrote:at the moment all the info provided here are mere speculations (it may be true but who knows)...better to wait and see the black and white print...
Sorry for didn't make this clear. I am in the UK, the person who told me this information is Home Office agent who answered premium appointment booking in 0870 606 7766 phone number. If I understand correctly by 6th April this will be implemented. They don't make booking available for April until the announcement made, because many people will not eligible with the rule.GeneNZ wrote: Thanks. Most interesting.

Wow. Thank you for this. Although still speculation (as Markie as said), this at least gives me a date to work around.renzokuken wrote:Sorry for didn't make this clear.

Indeed it is still unofficial, with the number of changes on the Tier-1, I suspect there is possibility for slight delay on the implementation (if they accepted the recommendation).GeneNZ wrote:

Thank you so much.
Basically I'm waiting to see what the changes are (particularly with regard to the previous earnings attribute, which is significantly harder, but for me depends directly on the multipliers they decide to implement). So if the changes go my way, it doesn't really matter how long it takes them to implement (preferably this year), since then I know I can apply for the Tier 1. If I'm not eligible, then I'll leave immediately and travel on my Tier 5.renzokuken wrote: Indeed it is still unofficial, with the number of changes on the Tier-1, I suspect there is possibility for slight delay on the implementation (if they accepted the recommendation).
I'm am also not legible by this new earning rules.. why didn't i find about this earlier????argh, i could have applied already... because i have 80 points total to the rules that apply now. only if they change the multipliers (now its 2.3 for my country, i will need at least 2.4) because i'm only 5 points short with new rules (basically i'm missing about 1k in earnings)GeneNZ wrote:Basically I'm waiting to see what the changes are (particularly with regard to the previous earnings attribute, which is significantly harder, but for me depends directly on the multipliers they decide to implement).

Well, you can still apply now, the new rule is not implemented yet.kju wrote:I'm am also not legible by this new earning rules.. why didn't i find about this earlier????argh, i could have applied already... because i have 80 points total to the rules that apply now. only if they change the multipliers (now its 2.3 for my country, i will need at least 2.4) because i'm only 5 points short with new rules (basically i'm missing about 1k in earnings)

i have my English assesment exam (IELTS) next week (i've been postponing that unfortunately ) and have to wait 2 weeks for results.. which means i can apply on 1.4. earliestrenzokuken wrote:Well, you can still apply now, the new rule is not implemented yet.kju wrote:I'm am also not legible by this new earning rules.. why didn't i find about this earlier????argh, i could have applied already... because i have 80 points total to the rules that apply now. only if they change the multipliers (now its 2.3 for my country, i will need at least 2.4) because i'm only 5 points short with new rules (basically i'm missing about 1k in earnings)
