i am 31yrs and 11months old, and i claimed 10 points cause its purely based on DOB vs Date of application

i will let you know if they decide to reject those points for some hidden reason (i.e. i didnt invite home office to my birthday party)

I think for 31 yrs and 10 months ( Or 11 months)..It's 5 points not 10 points.

I think you are right miki. I think if you are 30 or 31 years old, then you can claim 5 points.

it really couldnt be much clearer, for HSMP renewal anyway:

29 and under: 20 points
30 or 31: 10 points
32 or 33: 5 points

AT THE TIME YOU SUBMIT YOUR VALID APPLICATION

theres nothing about X years and Y months, Z days and ABCD minutes.

You are not 32 until your 32nd birthday.

It says 30 or 31, i think a person is 31 until he is 31 years and 364 days old.
If it states Under 31, its 30 years and 364 days.

Oh crap. Sorry. I was looking at the HSMP application guidelines. Not the HSMP renewal ones. Gee, I didn't even realise you have to go through some points based system for leave to remain

[ukboy1976]

Hi hopeful applicant,
Probably you realised that the points system we were saying is correct.

[shockboy2000]

yep - you sure do

can you state exactly what it says for the initial HSMP application re: age?

i'm too lazy to look

[ukboy1976]

for new application the points for age are different, but the logic is the same we have discussed so far in this topic.

[hopefulApplicant]

yep - you sure do

i'm too lazy to look

27 or under - 20 points
28 or 29 - 10 points
30 or 31 - 5 points
32 and over - 0 points

And yes ukboy...I now realise that what you are saying could very well be correct...but what is worse, is that I ALSO now realise that I probably have to go through all this crap again in a year or so

[shockboy2000]

in 2 years time

..and there will be different rules in place by then anyway...
