However, I then completed my Masters in Radio Systems Engineering from University of Hull (with a Distinction) that is recognised by http://www.immi.gov.au/skille...

Although I will be registed with HMRC as self employed and employed, I still havent filed my first self ass...

i just called them, and they picked up the phone and then i asked for appointment which ever was the next and they gave me the appointment. nothing too complecated.

i asked home office and lady on the phone said that although they are advised to say dependants should accompany, but if i bring along a letter from my wife saying why she and the toddler couldnt make it then that should be fine, but then i must have all the documentation for the dependants with me....

Hi all Just to share my experiance. Booked in August for November but cancelled due to visit to Home. Booked again in January for date 5th of March. Arrived at PEO Glasgow about 45 mins before appointment. Dependants didnt travel with me. I had a letter of explanation for thier absesnse but was not ...

i applied as 5yr workpermit holder

when my wife passed her test she got a single letter. when i passed my test, they actually spelled my name wrong and i didnt spot it as it was an L instead of an I. So they gave me two letters, one is the pass certificate with the wrong name, and another is a letter to HO saying they made a mistake,...

called the immigration info and the call centre lady said that for this question they have been told to advise that if possible the dependants should attend. but, if not possible, e.g wife caring for baby, or some other genuine reason, then a letter from the dependant about why they cant attend and ...

thanks

Hi I asked this question in the worng post, so sorry for double posting. Is it important for the dependants to go to the PEO with me for my ILR (WP) application in person. I have a meeting to attend the next day in Cambridge and hope to travel straight from PEO Glasgow to Cambridge. As we live about...

just a quick question...is it cumpulsory for the dependants to attend?

hi all i booked my ILR appointment by phone a few months ago and its due next week. when i downloaded the SET (O) form it says that tier 1 and 2 are not allowed to apply in person. what i understand is that tier 1 and tier 2 are new names of HSMP and workpermit etc. so does this mean that my appoint...

Hi My LTR expiers on the 15th. I made an FLR(IED) visa application quite in time but it got returned as there was some problem with the payment. I have sent it off again, and fingers crossed it will go through this time, but if it doesnt, there will be almost no time to submit another one. How much ...

Hi Two weeks ago i sent my FLR(IED) forms to border authority and before I snet it i checked it very throughly. Then a week later i recieved a letter saying that application had been recieved and payment had been taken. Yesturday in pot i got my evidene and pics sent back and a letter saying that i ...

Hello all
Are workpermit holders allowed to setup a part-time business or enter into another job (part-time)?

Regards

Hi
does the dependant of workpermit holder (e.g spouse) have to pass the life in UK test as well as the workpermit holder for ILR?

along with the documents, it would be a nice idea to use the "notes" part of the form to explain the reason for travel and also state that we have no intention to stay beyond visa and that we have very close ties with our country and thus will return. also explain how they will bring money with them...

cant find any change in the FLR(IED) form between the new and the old versions!

ok, i understand it a bit more RobinLondon. It would be still usefull to read through the green paper and also see if it is retrospevtive or prospective

i have very difficultly swallowed the 4-5 year rule. if ilr is made 6 years, i'll pack my bags and leave now. this is very unwelcoming attitude from the gov

hi all. a few questions come to mind would the green paper be published online? also are there any numbers regarding immigration out of UK? dont immigrants help towards the problems of "the aging nation" as a large portion of the population is getting near the retirement age? also i dont understand ...
