Hi All,
I have completed my EC in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia today. Thanks for your assistance and help.
Here are the details abt my application:
Nationality: Indian
Profession: IT
Experience: 7+Yrs
HSMP Applied from: Singapore (at that time I was working in Singapore)
Application sent on: 19-Jan-2004
HSMP fee deducted from Credit Card on: 23-Jan-2004
Funds proof for: S$32,000.00 (Approx BP 10,000) Statment of Account letter from the bank
HSMP Approved on: 07-Apr-2004
Applied for EC on: 24-Jun-2004 in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia (as I changed my job in the month of March, I had to attend EC either in the country of origin or in country of residence)
Some queries related to VAF1 Application form(for EC):
Date of journy: I have mentioned date of journy as 17-Sep-2004.
Funds Proof: I have submitted the Statement of Account letter which was taken in Singapore.
I have also submitted a Accommodation Proof document sent by my friend who is staying in London with all his contact details.
In the last section(Additional info.), I have requested the Immigration Officer NOT TO contact my current employer unless it is a must.
The receipt issued by British Consulate says IF THE OFFICER NOT WISHES TO ISSUES VISA, THEN BRIT. CONSULATE PEOPLE WILL CALL WITHIN 5 DAYS. IF WE DONT RECEIVE ANY CALL, WE CAN GO AND COLLECT OUR PASSPORT ON 5TH(01-Jul-2004) DAY. So, I went on 6th day for collection. But the officer said that Visa is not ready and Brit. Consulate will call me once the Visa is ready.
Atlast I recieved a call on yesterday (05-Jul-2004) from Brit. Consulat. The lady asked me to come and collect my visa.
Today I have collected my Passport stamped with UK Visa.
Visa validity: 17-Sep-2004 to 16-Sep-2005 (This is the date I mentioned in date of journy coulmn in VAF1 form).
I am planning to look for a job before I move in to UK. Please advise me about some good IT related josites.
Any Queries?? contact me.
Best Regards,
Sagar
