Also refused due to not meeting the minimum points, at 35 points :(
how much are minimum points that you dint meet
As you can see from reading the tread the cut off is not known yet. Could be anything from 42 - 50 at this stage but from a few comments from lawyers 46/50 looks likely.

Hi,

This is my first post here, got to create the account to share my news. I called my counselor just maybe 10 mins ago, he said they received the news from HO and it was likely that my request was refused, they also said last month had been around 55k got through, so this month from their view it would be around 50k.
Very tired got refusal since February, hope that the employer will continue.

looking at the posts, it seems the cut-off is either 46 or 50:
50 - If all the applicants with 50 scores have been approved either from the remaining certificates available or by borrowing upto 100 certificates from May
46 - If all the applicants with 50 scores have been approved, but the entire lot of applicants at 45 score have not been accommodated from the remaining available certificates even after borrowing 100 certificates from May, so the entire lot of 45 has to be refused. And in that case, the remaining certificates will be carried over to the next month.

I am incredibly confused at people saying they have been refused at 50 points while others have gone through. It doesn't make sense.

I have been refused since December 2017 with 44 points. I have not been working for past 4 months as I resigned from my previous job. I think is time that I consider looking for another job. As sad as it is, I feel like I need to start facing reality!

The level of confusion is sky rocketing. Lets not spread false news or speculate on behalf of others and keep this as a medium that is there to support people in the same situation rather than use this to spread panic.
Thanks.

hi

I hope points will be calculated on this basis . So 50 k would be 20 + 26 = 46

£50,000 – £54,999.99 : 30 points
• £45,000 – £49,999.99 : 25 points

49k - 25pts
50 k - 26 pts
51- - 27

55k - 30 pts
