What documents are needed for a HSMP/Tier 1 extension?

[giblet]

I've got an HSMP that was granted in October, 2006. It's up for renewal soon, but I don't have enough time in the UK to apply for ILR. I've only been in the UK for 4 months so far.

What documents will I need for my renewal application?

I ask because I'm in the US right now (for the next few hours) and have access to all of my documents in storage, and just realized that I should probably bring them back home to London to make the application. Any ASAP help would be very appreciated!

Giblet - that would depend on your individual circumstances.

The below link should give you more info though.

Thanks. I qualify under both the former and current rules. However, I'm not sure if I need to re-prove everything. Ie. do I need to send them my university diploma again for the extension?

No.

If you look at the form, it tells you which evidence to supply. I think one of the boxes you could tick was "evidence already supplied with previous application," but do check the form carefully.

I personally sent all my documentation again, just in case.

Also, because you applied under the older criteria for the HSMP, you may need to resupply your English Language proofs, etc.
