I'll be submitting this HSMP application in January. The new system is better for me in terms of points, and I'm turing 28 in April 2007, so I want to get it in under the wire (I also need to switch from FLR(WP) to FLR(HSMP) which i understand won't be possible after Autumn 2007).
other cover letters i've seen here show the OLD (PRE- 8-Nov-06 style) could anyone please comment on how I've arranged thsi cover letter and just how LONG this will take (send 7-Jan-07... should I have an answer by March/April 2007??)
i am going to send the application, this cover letter, and all the items listed in this cover letter. thanks in advance!
