Hi,

Why don't you make the points now? What has changed between your original Tier 1 application and now?

Hi nsm2010,

My application was a success.

I posted a detailed description of my visit here

Regards,

When I applied in April points were awarded for my age when I for applied for Tier 1 (G). Don't worry about your current age it is not what they are looking for.

I just got a reply from the enquiry helpline of the UK Border Agency. They said to tick both boxes - the Tier 1 General box and the work permit box, and then explain to case worker I am applying on basis of combined work permit and Tier 1 General. However, I am aware the advise above is to just ...

What visas have you been on? I was in a similar situation. I had lost my previous passort which had my original work permit in it. The biggest issue you will have is proving your days out of the country. I took along the following. - Original work permit letter stamped on entry - Current passport ...

I'm not sure if it a general requirment for all WP to T1G ILR applications to require a letter from your previous employer. Mine was a unique circumstance due to the lost pasport.

All my letter stated was the period of my employment and my final salary.

Hi, I believe that they look at the days out of country over the last 5 years not the full time you are in the country. So if by applying 1 month later some of the days out of the country drop off then applying later could work. Otherwise it is up to the individual caseworkers discretion. How are ...

Congrats bmowen and thanks for sharing your experience. Regarding previous employer's letter, were you asked for it by the caseworker or you carried it to show your 'presence' in the UK (due to lost passport)? I was asked for letters from all of my employers during my time in the UK. I'm not sure ...

Could you please explain the 5 points of age? have you got the points as per your age at the time of initial Tier 1 or as per your present age? As i believe in the guidance it specifically ask about the age at the time of initial tier1. I claimed for points at the age I was when I made my initial ...

Hi, I applied in person at the Croydon PEO and thought I'd share my story. My situation was this Work Permit 01/05/2006 to 01/05/2011 entered country on the 02/05/2006 Passport expired and replaced with new one in Feb 2008 Teir 1 (General) 18/08/2008 to 18/08/2011 (Bachelor degree claimed 30 points ...

Thanks asys for posting your story. That's one less thing to worry about. I have a feeling I won't be sleeping much this week.

I hope that this requirement is not the case. In my situation I received bonus in the month before I applied for my Tier 1 (General). At the monent if you count my last 12 month I have received more income but have yet to receive my latest statement which shows my most recent pay. Prior to that I ...

Try clearing your browser history. That link should show the form dated 04/2011

Hi Jseah, I have a similar problem to you except I arrived on a work permit. Do you have an update on how your application went? or is it still ongoing? I lost my old expired passport with my original visa stamped in it as well. I'm trying to pull together as much information as I can to make sure ...

Now that the new forms have been released. Can someone please advise on what additional evidence I should carry to prove that I was here for the duration of my visa and avoid issues because of my lost passport. I have booked an appointment at the Croydon PEO on the 18th of April as I have a wedding ...

When I look at the Form Finder the form is dated 11/2010 and still has the old fees on it. I believe that there is a new form still to come.

I was on the UKBA website last night just before midnight and the new online form was up but it seems to have disappeared again. I guess they are making some more changes to it.

The reason I ask about the payment amount is because according to the site below they request that if you lodge your form online you pay online at least 2 days before you turn up for your appointment otherwise they will cancel the appointment. http://apply.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/iapply.portal?_nfpb ...

I am missing the passport with the work permit stamped in it but I do have the accompaning letter that was stamped on entry. I am hoping that that will help them to track down my information. I understand that they may need to take some time to investigate which is why I want to apply as soon as I ...
