UK Tier 1 Visa approved (Processing 1 day)

Post by krishna1215 » Tue Oct 27, 2009 2:18 pm

Hi All,
I just got email confirmation that my Visa is approved and the processing time was just 1 day.

My special thanks to MVENT00 AND Chetan for all the help and instant replies. It would have been a nightmare filing for it, considering all the doubts I had regarding the same.

Excellent help and replies by Mvent & Chetan.

Thanks again both of you.

Duvvuri, Krishna applied in Dublin, Ireland. His application was onlilne and he has in-person appointment. Still, it was fairly quick. If your documents are in order, and you present your case very well, supported by strong and valid evidences, case-workers normally decide quickly.

Hi Duvvuri,

Firstly you can apply online if your country where ur in, is supported.
From Ireland you can. Then you got to book a appointment date

Thats the process I had gone thru.

I personally went there to dublin UK embassy on the selected appointment date, submitted all the documents and they took finger prints and a photogrpah.

I paid the necessary fee and also did opt for the return postage for which embassy sends us back the passport (fee being 6 Euro)

I just received a confirmation mail from them about the approval of visa. Just waiting for my passport.

Documentation made the difference. If its proper and clear, anyone should be fine and makes it easy for the caseworker to decide about ur application then and there itself. Bottom line being proper documentation.

As mentioned, I could do it with the help of MVENT and chetan.

No doubt they are the guys whom the credit should go for.

Thanks Again MVENT00 and Chetan!!!! Your marvellous :D

Offcourse I need to show enough funds for them. I do have in India ON MY NAME. May be I can show that. Please guide me regarding this.

You can apply for your wife and daughter in Ireland, but you have to show 2800 + 1600 + 1600 GBP for three of you, from your account.

Or if your wife has an account, she could show 1600 + 1600 GBP for her and for your daughter.

Either way, these should be maintained for three consecutive months.

In addition to these, you will need photocopy of your Tier 1 visa along with their applications, marriage certificate with your wife's application, and birth certificate with your daughter's application.

Hi Mvent,
Ok. Got it. So its not mandatory that you need to be in UK on job for certain amount of period and currently working. right!!!. I have seen some where, I might be totally incorrect, that they were asking for payslips etc + funds to show that the applicant is on job and he can maintain his family.

If this is not right, then I am fine to go ahead like.

If I wanna go ahead with their application, Is it again online submission first, and then get to the Embassy in person or would it be in person direct interview

For dependents of Tier 1 visa holder, you do not need these. As I said earlier, in addition to maintenance funds, you will need photocopy of your Tier 1 visa along with their applications, marriage certificate with your wife's application, and birth certificate with your daughter's application. Please see this link for details: http://www.ukvisas.gov.uk/en/howtoapply ... t#13821081

Thanks again Mvent00
I have just seen the link posted by you

Its said

evidence that there is £1600 (or £533 if you have been in the UK for more than 12 months) for each dependant, in your or their personal bank account for maintenance, and that the money has been there for at least 3 months prior to the date they make their application;

"It says in your or their account" so, isnt it 1600(Wife) + 1600 (Child)
You had mentioned 2800 + 1600 + 1600 . Pls correct me if I am wrong.

You had mentioned 2800 + 1600 + 1600 . Pls correct me if I am wrong.
You can find this from the detailed guidance in this link http://ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/siteconte ... policy.pdf at page 8, which states that:

Family member of a Tier 1 migrant
39. If the Tier 1 migrant is outside the United Kingdom or has been present in the United Kingdom for less than 12 months, each family member of the Tier 1 migrant must show that he/she, the Tier 1 migrant, or (for children) his/her other parent who is also legally present in the United Kingdom has at least £1600 to support him/her; this is in addition to any funds the Tier 1 migrant needs to prove he/she has enough money to support himself/herself.

Hi Mvent,
Thanks. Just received my passport and documents. All the photocopies were returned back. Cover letter was retained by them.
I got visa stamping from 01/01/2010 to 01/01/2013. (Multiple entry)

What is the next step to do from my end. Here in ireland, when we enter first time on work permit, one needs to go to Garda station, get registered and get a GNIB Card.

Are there any similar formalities to complete in UK??

Any link on web that would help to know the process.
Please let me know.

Hi,Krishan1215

I am in dublin as well but I am holding a student visa, can I ask whats the visa you hold when you apply?

I had been in internship in a company in 2009, and I am planning to apply in Jan,2010, do you think the earnings in the internship can be used to claim the points? I cant find any information about this.

Can anybody give me some idea?

p.s The internship is a part of the MBA course which the college can approve it, is that helpful?

Yes you can use earnings of internship provided your working hours are allowed under MBA course.

Thank you chetanojha

Can you tell whats the mean the working hours are allowed under the course?

I am doing full-time work all the year, and my course dont need me to attend any class coz all I need to do is finish two projects by writting. My college told me I can do the full-time in this year, but is that a risk maybe break the immgration law in Ireland? Coz my stamp on the passport showed the student visa holder can only work 20 hours while study and fulltime in summer holiday. I am not sure the letter from college is sufficient enough to satisfy the uk officers ?

And this is a grey part in the irish immgration rules, I had been told this course has been approved by the department of justice, but I cant find any source in the justice.ie, so worry about this.

That's what Chetan mentioned (red highlighted). Officially and legally, you can claim only that income which you have earned by this condition: only work 20 hours while study and fulltime in summer holiday.

ok, that means my college gave me the wrong information, I think I need a employer letter to say my internship was part-time in school and full-time in summer? Ih hope they can do that for me.

anyway, thank you guys, thats really helpful
