Hi,
Is there any one who recently got visa submitting TOEIC language certificate ?
or any one whose visa was on hold because of TOEIC and later got visa submitting Trinity College B1 or any other test ?
Please share any experience of yours or your friends about TOEIC.
Thanks

Dear Ukvisaengland,
Our prayers and good wishes are with you. I can literally feel your anxiety as we are in the same boat and InshaAllah this won't be Titanic revisited

. There is no need to worry just yet as you are only into your week 15th. This week has been fairly quite mainly because it was the last bank holiday of the year. InshaAllah first half of September will bring good news and may i please ask where is your solicitor based?
Be good
Dear aprboom
thank you for your nice words and your pray May Allah bless you and every team member in this forum. I have been waiting for over 19 weeks since I sent my application. my solicitor based near Southampton.I spoke to my solicitor yesterday and told me that she has not heard thing anything yet. have you applied in April as well? let's hope we will receive a good news next week as I can see from google drive there is not too many April application left.
thanks again for your comment

Hi Jodi,
I dont know if it comes under civil penalty but i was fined as well but i appealed and it was under process when i applied my ILR but i did not had any problem so relax it wouldnt affect ur ILR application. Specially when u have even paid the fine. As long as you are not
bank corrupt it should be alright.

hi tumbin,,

Dear Jodi,

Hi Jodi,
It is not a civil penalty, hence no need to mention or worry about it.
All the best.

Dear friends,
Just wanted to let you know me and my wife went to Liverpool for the Flrm and as we expected unfortunately 2.5 years visa issued.
Some stupid excuse to refuse like why I didn't have last 2 months bank statement to see if the wages going to my bank account or not but I submitted payslips for all last year.
so I had to jump to the bank to get the print for the f... case worker.
Now we have to wait for 3 years for my wife when she will reach to 10 years.
good luck for whoever is waiting.
Malavan

Asalamalaikum Shahjee,
JAZAKALLAH for your earlier replies I am bit confused with one more question regarding income threshold. As i m not including my son on my wife's flr m application bcoz i have applied mn1 for him. Do you think my income threshold will be £18,600 or £22,400 even though we are filling section 4 of dependent children
Thanks,
regards,
rasheed
Walakum asalam Rasheed bahi,
One will think that as it is just your wife who is applying so it should be £18,600, but on the other hand you have to fill section 4, and anyways Home Office know about your dependent child so they might want you to show £22,400. Frankly very tricky couldnt say much on this. If I am you, than I will play safe and make sure to get £22,400, and don't give any chance to the Home Office. Lets see what the other members will think about this scenario. All the best.
Kind regards
Shahjee
