I guess your visa is approved.....people getting letter mentioning 31st Macrh means 80% chances for interview....while 7th April mean less chances of interview and visa straight away....is my opinion...

I also got telephone interview on Saturday after a week of that intimidation letter. it lasted like about 10 minutes, she asked very general types of questions about funds and contracts. Now hope has been increased as its good to know that our application is being on the table and processing.

Hoping positive.

Hello Aliraza, One more from me if you dont mind. when they ask for immigration history, I guess they dont mean all the jobs datewise you did since you entered the UK. It is just the date you entered and the category of visa you switched to for eg from student to psw and then applied for entrepreneur visa. Please advise.

Thanks for being kind and helpful.
