Hi Debz, I've been trying to pm you to let you know that I've received my approval today, however the messages are for some reason stuck in the outbox and won't go through. I hope that you have received yours as well. If you haven't yet, hopefully you should be receiving it any day, keeping my fing...
NAK79 – OMG, it took you 4months!! :shock: When did you apply? Brent? Casa – Very difficult to deduce what could be causing this delay. I have heard/read of many cases (out of which few are colleagues’ friends) who had applied from various parts of UK in Jan/Feb under pilot/non-pilot scheme and are...
Hi Everyone, I have applied though NCS Brent under their pilot scheme for the combo application on 10th Feb. The lady who took my application told that my case is very straight forward and would prolly be very quick. I had my biometrics done on 29th Feb but have not heard back anything ever since th...
In continuation to my previous post.. Before leaving, I was told that I should be expecting my BRP card in 7 working days by courier. If I don't receive it by 10 working days, I should contact back. I stayed back at home to receive a courier and to my pleasant surprise (few mins ago) I received a di...
Thanks Everybody.. Apologies for the delay in responding.. I am trying to reply all at one go.. Thus a long one.. I was on HSMP (non-JR) 2 years + Tier1(Gen) 3 years without any dependant. My spouse is on independant visa. Btw, I am not uni lecturer.. :lol: that would be too serious kind of a job fo...
Hi Everybody, Thanks for being such helpful bunch of people here.. answering others' queries and also sharing own experience. I had my appointment at Glasgow PEO this morning. I reported at the security 20 mins before my appointment and reported my presence and got a token 10 mins before my appo. Wi...
Just spoke with the guy in Glasgow Apparently its not Chip N Pin, they take the form and process it that way. So apparently panic over I applied for visa extn from Glasgow PEO in 2009; I used my debit card then but cannot really remember if I was asked to feed in the Pin (I had to fill card details...
Yes.. I agree with you.. It's nowhere written so.. I will still carry my P60s and the letter from HMRC in my additional docs folder (better be safe than be sorry).. Will submit those only if I am asked to do so..
the problem is that bankers' draft is not acceptable 'ON THE DAY' at Glasgow PEO, this is only possible if you send this at least 6 days before the appointment, together with a payment form I am fully with gretnadawn on this.. I have seen it for myself as I'm applying from Glasgow PEO.. I preferred...
Hi Everybody, Last night I was filling the new application form for SET(O) and got a dilemma while answering a question. 5 year of my ILR = HSMP (nonJR-approved in March 2007) 2 years + Tier1(General) Extension for 3 years. My dilemma is in Section 3 - Which category? 1) Do I choose Section A (Tier1...
Thanks to both of you for the confirmation.. Btw, Golu.. it's you, my visa extn buddy of 2009.. right? :D Also, will I need to show my utility bills/council tax,etc to prove anything in my case? For proving 5 years continuous stay in UK, they have asked for P60/P45s.. I am providing a letter from HM...
Hi, I need a bit of advice on my upcoming ILR appointment this month. I am a SET(O) applicant with no dependants. HSMP (nonJR) 2 years + Tier1(General) Extension 3 years. My husband has his own visa and due for ILR sometime next month. My common sense says that as we are applying independantly, I wo...
Hi Bond, I too applied for my HSMP visa extension at Glasgow PEO. My appo was at 9am on 29th of May and I got the visa stamped by 10:30am (i.e. 1 and half hr).. very impressed.. I have travelled to Glasgow all the way from London just for the visa extension.. but i think it was worth.. less hassles....
Hi Soham, Sorry for the late response.. My initial HSMP visa is going to expire on 23rd May'09, so they have given me the extension from that day (i.e. 23rd May'09) to 23rd May '12. All the best for your application. Debz here. Hi debz Thank you for your information. I have book mine on 28/05/09 at ...
I got my HSMP visa (non JR) extended ystrday from Glasgow PEO. Thanks to those in this forum who helped me with answer to my queries.. I thought that it will be a good idea to share my experience with all of you here.. My husband who too has his own HSMP visa also applied for extension ystrday at Gl...
Hi, My husband has an in-person appo on 29th April morning. This query is reg his maintenance fund. His statement cycle is 28th of a month to 27th of next month (he has HSBC plus a/c not online saver). He has the postal bank statements for Jan-Feb and Feb-March. But he would obviously not receive th...
hey golu :D i personally know peeps with following instances.. 1) one of my friend applied for the extension 3 months b4 the visa expiry.. it was 2 months left for the visa expiry when his case was dealt with.. the caseworker approved the extn for 3 yrs starting from the date of visa expiry.. 2) my ...
Thanks for such a vivid description of uor experience at the PEO.
You said that the staff said 'Yes he is economically active'.. what does this mean? do they mean that there had been transactions carried out from the maintenance a/c or salary has been flowing into the a/c?
I am confused about it too.. Have a look at this link. This has been updated on 27th March'09 -> http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/managingourborders/compulsoryidcards/ Further the PDF in this link (can be found at-> http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/documents/manag...
that shouldn't be a problem.. my application set has similar instances (Ms & Mrs) too.. few of my payslips has only my initials and my surname.. but nothing to worry.. basically all supporting docs should talk/tally to each other..
My friend badly needs an advice for his HSMP extn application that he has posted on 1st March. His visa will be expiring by end of July 2009. His wife is pregnant and cannot travel after 27th May. He has not send any urgent treatment request while applying for their extension (but applied 5 months b...
I dont think that it will impact your existing WP at all.. If, for any reasons, my Tier 1 application gets rejected. Will it affect my existing work permit validity? Leave it blank In the payment section of application form, it asks for HO reference number.Does any body have any idea what that numbe...
