My application for HSMP was approved in June 2005 but I was refused entry clearance from BHC Islamabad. I appealed against this decision(Entry clearance) and my appeal was successful after one and half years (December 2006). I was issued a new letter (HSMP) in March 2007 and was granted the Entry Clearance for two years in June 2007. In 2009 I applied for extension under Tier 1 (General) and my current leave is expiring in June 2012.
My question is whether I qualify under Jr or not ?
Best Regards
Bhutta

Do you have a copy of the letter issued to you in March 2007? If so, please check if that letter mentions the fact that your application was assessed and approved on basis of 65 points criteria. Alternatively, please post the content of the letter here.

2. You don't need the original letter, in case you don't have it.
3. UKBA will not issue a duplicate letter, even if you request it.
4. You (and any dependant(s)) are exempt from LITUK, in context of settlement application.
5. The new immigration rules introduced on 06-Apr-11 (e.g. - income threshold, criminality threshold) do not apply to you and your dependants.
6. If you search the forum, you'll find numerous posts by HSMP JR covered migrants who have been granted settlement mentioning their experiences and the list of supporting documents they provided for their applications.
Today by the grace of Allah I got the ILR under 4 years JR. Thanks you Sush for your help.....May Allah bless you .....sushdmehta wrote:Given that you applied in 2005 (before the qualifying residential period was increased to 5 years on 03-Apr-06), you may apply for settlement after completing 4 years in the UK.
Given your circumstances (appeal, delayed entry), a precise explanation of facts in a cover letter (if applying by post) will be useful.
