In March 2005 I submitted my HSMP application. I must first say a big thank you to everyone on www.immigrationboards.com who helped answer my questions over the past 3-4 months. I have really enjoyed our discussions and appreciate your help.
I would like to contribute to this board by supplying a copy of my completed application to you all for download. Before you get too excited I'll tell you what I actually claimed and my background.
- I am Australian and have been living in the UK for the past two years and applied a week before my visa was due to expire.
- Therefore I am a In-Country Applicant
- My profession is IT and I have been working in this field for the past 5 years

You may need to copy and paste the link into a new browser window and request it a couple of times. It's hard to find good free hosting these days!
NOTE: Please do not copy these documents word for word. I have provided this for your benefit to help compile and submit a solid case for the HSMP. I myself spent over 4 months collating documents and many weeks working on the presentation and organizing of the application. You don't need to pay a lawyer or consultant. Follow the guidelines and you will be fine!
Best of luck with your applications![/url]
