Dont get upset coz of these current affairs in the UK.
Be confident about your case and afterall its a opportuniuty that you seek to go there & work. For this they might tighten their rules or background checks. But they will not treat us 3rd rated.
Be at ur atmost optimism & you wil get wat you wanted.
For SYH:
I submitted a review letter with following points
1) Reason for not providing continuous payslips - break in company
2) stated clearly about the chage in guidance version 5 & version 4
3) Stated that i had used guidance version 4 since when i aplied it was valid
4) clarified tat i had used ANY 12 month logic out of 15 month.
To be specific i kind of fought their decision.
thankfully it paid well. if it dint may be critics would have proven am wrong.
Cheers

Even the review has been rejected stating the same reason that they didnt find 2 evidences for India salary (10 weeks)...........now can we like you by making a complaint........because i just found that there is some guidance changes regarding the same point "if you have lived and worked in 2 different countries......................"Want to know if anyone experienced this problem. Actually my cousin claimed
1. Maters degree - claimed - 35, awarded - 35
2. Previous earnings - claimed - 25, awarded - 20
3. Age - claimed - 10, awarded - 10
4. UK experience - claimed - 5, awarded - 5
Total - claimed 75, awarded 70
This is so frustating. Actually the reason that they have awarded only 20 in my previous earnings is
basically he claimed the duration as 1st April 2006 - 31 March 2007
during which he was working in UK from 1st April - May 5th 2006 (5 weeks) and July 13th 2006 to 31st March 2007 (37.5 weeks).
In the middle say between 5th May 2006 to 12th July 2006 (10 weeks) he was working in India. During that he dont even had the work permit to work in UK. He went back to India for that period and worked there, it was a short term contract position and there he got the salary on the basis of TDS (Tax deduction on Source).
Now he claimed the previous income only for the time period that he was in UK (as it is the place where he spend more time)on pro-rota basis and claimed 25 points which comes under 26000+ band.
Now the case worker refused the application because for the work in India (for 10 weeks) we haven't produced 2 valid proofs. He didnt consider the total income on pro-rata basis, he just accumalated the salary for the whole year.
Actually yesterday I have seen the pack that we received, he was completely satisfied with the UK experience and salary statements etc. but he was just expecting some kind of proof from india work in those 10 weeks. Firstly my question is what if we dont have the visa in UK and we just went to India and didnt work at all. is he going to expect us to work and show the proofs.
In the pack we sent all the letters that we have from the Indian employer. He gave us experience letter and in that he also mentioned how much he paid. It also includes a settlement slip as appendix. As it is very short period contract and it is for assignement there are no payslips. (it was something like if we complete the work, we will get money, otherwise no payments). As he completed the work, he received the money and it was not under the taxable income, so he didnt get any tax deductions. Also he came back to UK after that he didnt had any chance to file the self assessment.
Now we have sent the proofs to caseworker.
1. experience letter with a note that this much salary paid.
2. settlement slip with stamp and signature of employer.
both of them stapled together.
Now dont know whether he considered both of them as a single evidence or whether he didnt even see the settlement slip at all.
Do you people know whether there was any cases that caseworker didnt see the evidence before and after that when we applied for review he realised it was already there and issued the HSMP. what are all the chances for review in this scenario.
Also if my cousin is applying for review does he need to keep the same letters (which he already sent with the application).
how can we justify the case if he didnt notice any of the documents. (because he can always say that we haven't received this document before, you are just trying to add it now or something like that)
It is just they are expecting more evidences for India job which was only 10 weeks for the whole earning period. Thats the reason they are not considering the case on pro-rata basis.
Please drop in some suggessions. Thank you
and version 5 saysIf you have lived and worked in more than
one country during the past 15 months we will
normally assess your income over a 12-month
period against the country where you have spent
the longest period, on a pro-rata basis. For
example we consider a period of up to 12 months
in the last 15, so that if you have spent 8 of the
months in the United Kingdom and 4 in Nigeria,
we will take your earned income in the United
Kingdom, divide it by eight and multiply it by 12
to give an annual income figure. You will then be
allocated points appropriate to that figure. You
need to submit the appropriate forms of evidence
for consideration (see below).
you can see the difference.... initially we made the application on 30th May during which the Version 4 guidelines where in place.If you have lived and worked in more than
one country during the past 15 months we
will normally assess your income over a 12-
month period against the country where you
have spent the longest period, on a pro-rata
basis. For example we consider a period of
up to 12 months in the last 15, so that if you
have spent 8 of the months in the United
Kingdom and 4 in Nigeria, we will take your
earned income in the United Kingdom, divide
it by eight and multiply it by 12 to give an
annual income figure. You will then be
allocated points appropriate to that figure. if
you wish to have your earnings calculated on
a pro-rata basis, you should supply supporting
evidence to cover the full earnings period
claimed. You need to submit the appropriate
forms of evidence for consideration for the
earnings period claimed(see below).
