Re: July 2018 restricted COS

I am really tired of this visa situation. It won't come to end when you get it. Renewals are still nervous process, I hope I won't need NHS doctors to call my nerves.

Hello everyone

I am still waiting on 45 points. Contacted my HR they said they haven't received a decision yet on my application. Is there someone else also sharing the same boat?

Re: June 2018 Restricted COS

Are you guys graduated from a UK university? No, I’m not unfortunately. My employee told me that you have to be hired through milk round to get points. I am on the same boat with you but not eligible for points What do you mean by "get points"? Do you mean your request for a restricted COS does not...

Re: May 2018 Restricted COS

I am also about to start to look for new job as the situation is bad. But also tell everyone not to search for a job in UK unless they earn 55K+. That way people would not waste their time, efforts and hopes.

Re: May 2018 Restricted COS

I personally find it quite a shock that instead of the cutoff going down it’s gone up. I can’t see any reason why it would be so high since this month had nearly 2k visas. Fewer certificates than 2000. The process is simple: 1) Since Jan, every month around 1700 new applicants with +50p have applie...

Re: May 2018 Restricted COS

Moreover, do not count on "backlog clearance". In January the 45+ backlog got cleared, but in February 1700+ applicants were in the 45+ again. Even if this month threshold is 45+p again, next month 1700+ NEW applicants with higher than 45p would apply , and again it would be same story. I preferred...

Re: May 2018 Restricted COS

Oh also: if there’s two approvals at 55 points now being granted “exceptionally” that’s a fairly strong indication that the cut off is 55. Like a previous month it looks like they had to borrow some from June and grant some exceptionally outside the quota to get the whole band across (I.e. there we...

Salary Requirement for New Entrant

Hi there,

I qualify as a new entrant but not having a Tier 4. Would my salary threshold be lower than the 50K which was April's limit?

Thanks a lot
