From PBS Guidancedylan wrote:I have a question regarding Tier 1 General extension. I have applied for Tier 1 General and I claimed points for my BEng degree and £40K earnings. But I am doing my MSc (part time) and I will have it before the extension.
So when I apply for the extension do I still need to show £40K earnings? Because I get extra 5 points from my MSc compare to my BEng. And £35K earnings would be enough to make up 100 point.
I am asking this because I earned £40K with some extra work and it is almost impossible to do that again with my part time MSc course. But £35K is possible. Please be kind enough to provide me an answer.
So I assume you need only 95 points to extend your visa. And, yes you will get 5 points more for your masters. Why not try the point calculator to clarify the doubts.Under Tier 1 (General), an applicant

•at least 75 points for attributes (Appendix
A of the Immigration Rules), if last granted
leave in Tier 1 (General), as a Highly

But it looks like I only need 95 points. And I tried the points calculater and with my MSc I only need earnings of £30K get 95 point. So my full time joub would be enoughDreemweaver wrote:From PBS Guidancedylan wrote:I have a question regarding Tier 1 General extension.

That's not their job. If you have enough points and the evidence to prove it, you are good.dylan wrote:
But I still have doubts because UKBA can ask me, how come you went down from 40K to 30K? Any inputs about that?
