jaiswal · Post by **jaiswal** » Tue Jan 09, 2007 9:34 am

HI ALL,

i have been just looking into the hsmp extension points, its seems that UK govt want people out of this counteries as the person who is working since three four years, paying full taxes and not getting any beniftits suddlenly on a cross road.

in my case if i need to get 75 points and they have changed the rule just in dec.06 how i will show as i can score on MBA(35 POINTS) , NO POINTS ON AGE, 5 POINTS ON UK EXPERIENCE and if i am earning18000 to 22000, how i can overnight i will earn 50000 to get 75 points,

is there any body taking legal action, or can any body help??

hi jaiswal,

dont panic and dont worry. those who are not eligible under the new HSMP scheme can switch to Work Permits.
I know this can be a pain but speak to your employer and see if there is any option.

Yes that is through
Just need to be careful and need to see the whole picture because:
- Only job that is likely to be awarde WP could do this
-your clock towards 5 years ILR will be reset
- one must have been working fro at least 8 months in that jobs.

Second Job - as per the current point scheme Yes, because you need to show only total sum.

You can file your tax return which will be show your combined income. However, this may help only after 12 months, so, may not solve your current extension problem.

HO accepts income from several jobs including part time jobs and overseas jobs (over the 12 month period)

Please dont put your hope on changing to WP if the work you are doing is not a graduate level job as HO has rejected some applications of those who tried to move to WP based on this reason.

The only visible solution is court for Judicial review. So join the London protest of 11th Jan. You should also join the HSMP Forum fighting the changes.

I dont think there is any salary requirement for work permit. the employer shud be meeting the national bare minimum for employment.

the guidelines states that salary should be equal to or even better compared to compensation being offered to a resident.

also please bear in mind that company should provide proof that no local resident is able to do the job...meaning there is a lack of manpower resource in the UK or EU before HO considers an non-UK and non-EU national.

thanks all!!!

please dont mind if i am puting questions as i am desprately need my extensions

1) what if join as a consultant as a second job, how they calculate 12 months period on my salary as my extension is due on sept07 means i will apply in aug07

2) if i am a director of a company will they considered divident or salary .

I believe, it is ok to do 2-3 pbs for salary to reach salary barcket for LTR extension. Though not sure because I have not read this case yet.

But if it is not highly skilled job, the chance for rejection is quite high if you opt to switch to WP.

Dear Markie

I think the guidance clealry mention that "the resident labour test could be waived" if someone switch from HSMP to WP.

For jaiswal I have not read any income threshold that need to be satisfied before someone swith from HSMP to WP. (Though not sure about this, have anyone seen ??). The point here is just that:
-Employers is willing to file/sponsor WP
- Type of job should be the job that is likely to be awarded WP. So, students jobs, Jobs that do not need a degree is hard to qualify.

"I think the guidance clealry mention that "the resident labour test could be waived" if someone switch from HSMP to WP."

Only if one has been in the position long enough, i.e. 8 months for those whose visa was for 12 months and 12 months for those whose visa was for more than 12 months.

The guidelines I am mentioning here is on the business and commercial guidelines...meaning WP...

If a company is willing to sponsor WP but would not meet the guidelines setforth by HO...it is futile..
