Still Waiting on a decision & documents

Post by reachrajah » Sat Mar 28, 2009 5:10 pm

Hello everyone,

Help & advise needed. (Applied under category: WP to Tier 1)

Application Sent on: 28th Jan
Ack letter Received on: 30th Jan (dated 29th)
Fee Debited: 29th Jan
Employer Verification(via email): 17th Mar
(For unfortunate reasons, my MD was on holiday and could send his confirmation only on 25th by email.)
Status Check: Called HO on 25th (Status -->Awaiting further consideration)
Until Date: No documents received.

This forum sounds really helpful but confusing as well when hearing about the processing times. No one can judge when & how its being processed !!

Any comments & suggestions from people who applied during this same period?

Thanks.

How do you know that HO have sent an email to your employer. Did you supply your employer email id? I have applied for Tier 1 and have only supplied telephone numbers?

Did you inform ur employer about the possibility of HO verification

Please let me know

Thanks

Hi All,

I have also applied for Tier 1 on 11th March Fees has been deducted and got my reference letter. I have been a regular reader of the this topic. I read in some replies that HO will conatct employer or have contacted. The question I have HO contacts your employer in all the cases I mean I have applied from UK so in my case also will they contact my employer. I have only given phone number of my employer so what will happen in my case will my application it be delayed?

Thanks

I am assuming that you gave the same company's payslips. If so, that should not be a problem as they wil contact the company over the phone..

Ps When was your fee deducted?

Thanks shubham_arora2001 for reply. Yes I have given payslip for one employer. My fee was deducted on 12th March and got reference letter on 14th March.

So HO contact employer in any case even if you have applied from UK?

Thanks

Guys anyone from feb whos applied for extension Non-JR and got their passport back, please share your timelines .....

HO seems to have accelerated the processing process as they will be recieving a lot less applications from April 1st due to new rules ......


Good luck to all waiting ....
