Hi there,
I know how you feel, I have tried to contact HO several times now but all i can hear is the automated voice mail saying if it's less than 14weeks, no update can be given..
Even though its 13th week finished.. you shd try to give call to HO and see if they give u any updates...bt wrote:hello
my employer has already confirmed them last month that i am working with them
i have contacted HO they are saying wait till 14 weeks
Spang wrote:Guys,
we finally got ours back today - post man delivered it straight to the door and I had to sign for it. The date on the letter was 18th of March so it took a little while for it to arrive here (3-4 days).
I thought the delayed turnover time for our application might have had something to do with the fact that they took the main applicant fee and dependent fees at different times. Checked my statement and the dependent fee was only taken out last week because they didn't take it out at the same time as the main one.
Anyway its hard to tell but it seems as though a lot of people are experiencing delays and in this regards I assume there is just simply a delay at the home office?
Anyway, I hope everyone that is still waiting receives there applications back soon.
Good luck and hang in there team!

It is earnings in any consecutive 12 months from the past 15 months and not the entire professional career.subbu_champion wrote:Hi
For Tier 1 visa I have a doubt related to past earnings, whether this is related to total money that we earned from the starting of our professional career. or earnings per year? please make me clear in this..
Thanks in advance

date submitted:- 16th march at chennai
status submitted to uk consulate...
Did you apply from outside UK? in that case earlier we used to have MULT but recently ppl in UK who got visa's this section is not found at all - no of entriesUKVisit wrote:Hi,
I am just wondering that in my Tier 1 (G) visa there is nowhere mentioned about no of entries... I applied from Sheffield HO.
Just wondering, if HO have changed this requirement of no of entries. Do anyone who received Tier 1 (G) within a week have mentioned anything about no of entries into Visa... I got to know few have section Number of entries: MULT into their Tier 1 (G) visa..
Is there any condition that a person should not be more than 3 months at a single stretch out of UK?
Cheers

i have this very urgent query, hope if anyone could help me with this
My husband(dependent app) is on a temp job and he has to prove that he has submitted his application to home office for his extension of visa, i (main app) submitted app on 2nd feb and haven't received any acknowledgement letter till now, i rang HO and got the reference number on fone which is PB1234567890/001 and i suppose my dependent reference number shld be pb1234567890/002 is this correct?
i got a perm job so i am safe but my husband is working as a temp so he needs to give a letter at his work place in his name that he has applied for his visa.
I applied with a dependant and only received one acknowledgement letter with one reference number. So if both you and your husband applied in the same application then I believe that both of your reference number is same (others can confirm). Or your best bet is to call home office and ask them for the reference number for your husband too (better if he calls)
* has anyone got a copy of sample letter that i can send to home office to ask for acknowledement letter for my dependent? please if u have one do send me......
-
*also should i send an email to HO or fax them which one is the quickest and safe one to do?
Again ask one of them UKBA advisors
* can anyone provide me any guidance that in my letter should i write that my husband is working as a temp and he is in danger of loosing his job can u pls send me an acknowledgement letter in his name
If your husband was allowed to work in this country and was working as accordance to law then there is no problem with declaring that
* do u think HO provides acknowledgement letters for dependents app's
In my experience if it's the mutual application then no
please do reply asap
many thanks

Since your Hubby's employer require a physical doc proof as Jagsy_m suggested write a letter and mention the Reference No you got it over phone in the letter and keep a copy of it and buy some time from your Hubby's employer by showing the letter copy and tell we are waiting for HO to get back and will submit the proof as soon as they reply.. write the letter in sucha way that HO and Employer are convinced with it..maria_elahi wrote:thanks alot for ur quick response ramesh really much appreciated, the only problem is that my husband's employer is not willing to contact HO, he said us to ring them and get the response in 1 or 2 days.......my husband is really scared of loosing his job cos of credit crunch so he wants a quick and faster way of anything to prove to his employer that his app is under consideration and that he is allowed to work till the time he gets any response from HO............pls do reply thanxs
