Just to highlight a case which recently happened to a friend of mine who is a doctor.
He graduated from a local UK university and worked in the last year in a UK hospital. When he filled up his HSMP1 form (which I checked it myself), he only ticked the Original Wage Slip box and stated he was unable to provide the Original Tax Return because it does not cover the full tax year(he's applying for Oct 05-Oct 06 period). He also submitted both original bank statements covering the period and also an original letter from the employer stating the salary.
2 days ago, he received his documents back with a rejection letter stating he did not submit the required evidence(Original Tax Return).
I am very astonished with that decision. It also states that they will not consider futher fresh evidence.
According to the HSMP guidance notes, if one is unable to submit either original Wage Slip or Tax return, u have to submit a further piece of evidence(Bank Statements or Letter). If one is unable to submit both Wage Slip and Tax return, u have to submit both B Statements and Letter.
I don't know what to advise him, whether to appeal against that decision and send all the documents back, or maybe to make a fresh application and submit his old April 2005/2006 Tax return/P60??
We did try contacting WP on Friday, but unable to get hold of anyone.
Any ideas anyone?
