Hello again,

Out of Country App
Sent by Courier: 12/03/07
Recieved by HSMP: 14/03/07
Confirmation of Reciept:15/03/07
Reference No 211xxx

Today HO called to verify past earnings with the employer. I'm keeping my fingers crossed. Wish me luck .

[invisibleman]

Did they call or e-mail?
Did u mention their e-mail address in the references? I thought that they usually e-mail, rather than calling....Please share.
Thanks.

[KAYC]

how many of you had this situation that HO called your employers ?

[desertman]

My HSMP application reached HO on 16th March.
Reference number received on 20th , 211***

I asked through email before 5 days they said ur case is with a case worker and is n final stages, i again called them yesterday they said it s still with case worker and when the decision will made they will inform me by email.

But till now they didnt send me ny email.
What u guy say y it s too late when they said me before 5 days tht it s n final stages ???

I m very much worry plz tell me abt this nd what should i do?? r they verifying tht s y it s too late ?

thanks to all

I too was surprised when my employer got a call from the local British High Commission for verification. I had sent the email address as well as the telephone number of my employer(s) but they chose to call. I was wondering if its a good sign that they are verifying with the employer(s), or do they verify for all applications?

[desertman]

from which country u applied?

but there r some companies who donot disclose the information on phone like mine, then it can be great prblm for me.

[invisibleman]

Even my appln is with a CW....Since a week (at least since 4 days).
Did not receive any mail from them...yet.
Seems that they have made verification mandatory...

[desertman]

i dont think so that they have made the verification mendatory, it depends on case to case. if they ve ny doubt they will verify otherwise they will not. nd it also depends on country from where u r applying.

is there ny body else whose employer got the verification ?

[hsmp07]

I have applied from Pakistan. My application was assigned to the case worker on 28th Mar, its been almost a week now, will call HO today to find out if it has progressed to the next stage. Will keep the forum posted. I also wanted to know whether there is any other March applicant who has applied from Pakistan, if yes was verification done??

I applied from Ukraine.

[confusedhsmp]

HI guys..

My application

Sent on 9/3/07
Received 16/3/07
Allocated to case worker 28/3/07

Still under consideration for over one week. Its an in country application

Education 30 pts Earning 20 UK Experience 5 Age 20

However my earnings were in the period of my study, back home(dubai). But the number of hours i attended college were lesser than 15 Hours per week (approx 13-14 hours per week). anything more than 15 hours is regarded as full time study in UK. I dont know how the HSMP ppl will assess my application. this is because the HSMP ppl say that they dont consider any earnings earnded whilst at full time study.

Your ideas are welcomed.!!! thanxz
