Seniors??cooltt_18 wrote:Hi All,
I will be applying on 6th april under the new rules.
As per BHC statement "Migrants who want to apply in person should note that the date of their application is the date when they go to the public enquiry office. Applicants should consider this when they book an appointment."
Does this mean that i cannot pay the fees before 6th april?
I will be applying from India, and here we have the option of paying the fees to Standard Chartered bank in return for a demand draft which can be submitted along with the application.
This should clear the doubt regarding the issue.
For applications made outside the UK:
The date that the fee associated with the • application is paid and the applicant’s biometric details taken."

As i mentioned earlier, we have the option of paying the fees to Standard Chartered bank (at an earlier date) in return for a demand draft which can then be submitted along with the application.raghava39@rediffmail.com wrote:Is it 25th March or 25th May? If it 25th March, it is a tough question to answer. I do not have an answer to this. But the guidance says the date fee is Paid and biometric details taken. "and" confuses the matters. Only Seniors may be able to throw light on this

So assuming i paid the fees on 25th March, this date will be my date of application, right? And if it so, will my application (i intend to file on 6th april to take advantage of new rules) be considered under the new or old rules?
This date will not be the date of application. The date of application would be the date where you paid fee and your biometrics taken. By getting the draft from standard chartered is not paying fee, submitting that draft to the VFS is the payment received date and thus, the date of application.

Thanks aruni.aruni4470 wrote:You will have to pay the fee which holds good for the date of application. If not VFS will not accept your application. If you want to pay before the application date, contact VFS and ask for the updated fee.
Great thanks. Got it now. But as i mention above, i will still not be able to apply on 6th april as i will have to wait for the exchange rate on oanda to come up.

The maintenance funds calculation requires us to use the exchange rate "as on the date of application". Does this mean we have to use the exchange rate as of the day we submit our docs?
Seven days within the date of application. (Of course my copy of Guidance is old). Please check the new guidance
"Only the most recent statement must be dated within seven days of the application, for out of country applications, and one month for in-country applications."
