It clearly shows that there is some political intereference in immigration and beloved against south asians

other link is for EC , EC starts when one will enter UK. so ask EC Officer to stamp visa close to ur travel date ..this is ur right

Hi Root,
Normally you are expected to send previous Income Tax return for previous year and any other forms of statement or payslips.
Urgent treatment form normally should not be affecting outcome of your application.Normally Applicants has been getting outcome in 2 weeks and maximum in 3 weeks when they get all documents with decision letter.
Kind regards
Bishnujee

I got result in 5 weeks last time and i normally all ppl r getting results within 5 weeks

Normally there decision is based on documents submission.If they find that you have all local UK Graduation and Professional Registration is done in UK,they wont have lots of problem with verification of documents.If they need verification of documents from far away areas,then it might be late depending on documents submitted.

There are around 6 applicants including me this month.
we have shared info thru this form.

There might be some more applications, who might not be aware of this form or haven't shared the info.

so , on an average there might be around 15-20 applications this month.

Does anybody know, what is the average number of applicants every month?

Does this matters at all to HO ? .....

Cheers.

Hi root,
I submitted urgent treatment as I got a job offer in the UK. I faxed the urgent treatment form with the job offer letter to the HO on 6th Oct the friday and when i called the following monday (9th Oct) they said caseworker is assigned...then i called up twice during the week the status was "verification checks" wondering how long it would take. I was adviced to call next week.
Cheers!

root · Post by **root** » Mon Oct 16, 2006 4:23 am

HO check with all employers or just current employer?
as I have seen on forum and it seems that they just check with past employers..?

how do they contact? fax email phone.
I wish they dont email because mostly people dont read corporate email address.

arm · Post by **arm** » Mon Oct 16, 2006 6:58 am

HO can check all employers and it can be by fax, e-mail or call.

If you dont want they e-mail your employer dont mention email just give them fax and phone number.

root · Post by **root** » Mon Oct 16, 2006 7:24 am

all things r mention on letter head.

in current employer he mentioned his UK number to contact but on letterhead pakistan no.

will they contact UK no? as company HQ is in UK and branch in pakistan and i attached appointment letter which was on UK letter head.

if employer mentioned that contact me on UK no ?

Hey Guys: I just saw posted on a previous page on this forum that it seems that asking for an Urgent Treatment reduces the possibility of getting accepted. Does anyone has info on this? Is this just a myth? Anybody heard something about it?

bishnujee · Post by **bishnujee** » Tue Oct 17, 2006 8:02 am

Just checking whether any applicant from October has been approved till now?

jd · Post by jd » Tue Oct 17, 2006 8:16 am

I've applied end of last week and no sound from HO yet.
Can anyone please share processing time information who applied recently?

Also, I did a major mistake with my application. I've macter degree from Pakistan and claimed 25 points.

Please tell me if they will award me 15 points (I deserve) or simply mark 0 points.

bishnujee · Post by **bishnujee** » Tue Oct 17, 2006 8:19 am

Hi,
Normally they should award you 25 Points for Masters Degree .Individual case worker some time ask for NARIC Certificate.Anyway hope for best and I believe you should get 25 Points for same.

root · Post by **root** » Tue Oct 17, 2006 8:32 am

regular procedure is that if degree is equivalent to bachelors then 15 else masters 25.

they will give u 15 if its bachelors. please tell ur university name.
i am graduate of NED and I got 15 points of graduate degree last time

Hi Guys,

Can anyone who's sent the application through courier confirm if the person who's signed for the receipt of their application is "S. COTT." The FedEx website shows that my pack was signed for by this person at the reception/front desk.

The reason I am asking this is because FedEx seems to have goofed up in the delivery. Till 5pm UK time yesterday my package was shown as lying at FedEx office in Nottingham (tracking system on the website), but an hour later (6pm UK time) the website showed that it had indeed been delivered to Sheffield at 11.15am UK time

!! I am kind of concerned as to where the package was all the time and why was the delivery at 11.15am reflected / confirmed at 6pm only, and that too when I called up the UK helpline repeatedly demanding status.

If someone can confirm that his application was also signed for by S.COTT. in the past, it will put all my fears to rest !!

Thanks & regards
