Hi All,
SHOCKING NEWS!!!!!
Till now we were made to believe through media,press,HO,public that nationals from Romania and Bulgaria are not welcomed here for various reasons.
Previously it was said that there will be a limit to number of persons from Romania and Bulgaria to enter UK. Now the door is thrown open!!!!!!!!
A new change to visa rule as in www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk (dated 12 Dec 2006) means nationals from Romania and Bulgaria need not even apply for visa to enter into UK.
When you go to the above website, click the link 'Statement of Changes in Immigration Rules HC 130'. A new page will be opened which says the change is with effect from Jan 01 2007. In that click 'Statement of changes'. Again another page is opened. In that search for 'Appendix-1 Visa requirements for UK'.
HO says something and acts in a different way. If the whole excersise of visa change is to curb people from different nations to settle down in UK, then why allow Romanians & Bulgarians without visa? (Dont get me wrong if you are from Bulgaria or Romania.)
Even if you argue that visa change was brought to get more money from applicants through visa change,why then are Romanians & Bulgarians are allowed to enter UK without visa?Why cant they be made to apply for visa?
I think it is getting facial here.Then how else could you explain this biased change?
I personally feel that HO is targetting only HSMPians. They somehow or other dont want HSMPians to settle down here.No other visa category has got more stricter than HSMP.
Statement submitted in Parliament on 11 Dec 2006 & to be implemented by 01 Jan 2007. Within 20 days!!!
First it was projected that these 2 nationals will not get a free access like other EU nations. Then the whole thing is changed infavour of them.
But for people who has come through HSMP undergoing all hardships to get a job,bring family,run the family there is no certainity when HO would change HSMP rule again.
So for people who are supporting UK economically (obviously people under HSMP) it is hardship but for others it is get-loose.
Wakeup guys!!!!
What happened to the court proceedings? Any updations anyone?
