It's a Tier 1 not a magic wand! You can work only in the UK, you can not travel anywhere without a visa except Switzerland (I think).
You are supposed to get a letter with the Tier 1.

Justice and UKTIER, here is my tip for how to get info from CC. Call in the morning around 9-10 o clock. Do not be afraid to call more than once. Try two three times until you get some one sympathetic enough to dig up some information. Explain to them that it has been long and that you need your pas...

hi aragorn99, did u applied with dependents.I applied on 23rd june with dependents.Called HO today and they told me that my application is still under consideration.Probably the application with dependents are taking time. yeah, thats probably why.I can not understand why though, all they have to d...

This is frustrating. I applied on the 28th of June and I am still getting a "still under consideration"

why don't you give the IELTS or TOEFL ? IELTS is simple and no need for preparation.

I called em today and he gave me the same old "still under consideration" gimmick. Sensing a weakness I went for the kill, telling him that I was told last week that it had gone for stamping. The guy said, yes, that is what it says in the system, but alas it has not yet been stamped or dispatched. :...

no problem.

which country are you from ? I am sure they have an embassy here from where you can get a new passport. Your old Visa is still valid, just staple the old and the new passport together.

1) Send in a UT 2) It might have been assigned, but some one forgot to update the system. 3) System has been updated, the guy you called just did not bother to check the details carefully. Keep calling HO until you run into some one sympathetic enough to actually go through everything and verify wha...

My godness! it took 1 month just to get the passport stamped and that too after you have sent in an UT :( BTW thanks for your answer, appreciate it. I guess there is no choice, we have to be more paitent. no point calling CC (it just confuses u even more) Regards Keeping the faith :) Hey grant, Vis...

But why post this query about pregnancy and NHS in a Tier 1 discussion forum?? :?: regards Her question is relevant as she is asking if her moving on a Tier 1 dependent visa will have any effects on her right to treatment in NHS. Plus why are you poking your nose into topics that have no relevance ...

Hello I will be moving shortly with my husband to London (tier 1 visa) I would like to know if the fact I am pregnant (week 16) will have any effect on my rights in NHS etc... Thanks for your help My wife moved to the UK when she was pregnant too ( as my dependant, me being on a work permit). It wi...

"Under Consideration" can mean a whole lot of things :
1) It has been approved and is waiting stamping
2) It has been stamped and is awaiting dispatching
3) It has been dispatched and royal mail is sitting on it
4) It is really "under consideration"

Today they are saying it is still under consideration ?????? ARE THEY OUT OF THEIR MINDS!!!!!!

Mine has been sent for stamping. Don't know if that means if it is approved or not ?

was your urgent treatment request recorded and considered ?

did anyone call HO today ?

nothing as of yet.

I have sent only 5-6 months of salary slips and around 11 month bank statements. But the thing is in the UK payslips, you have account of how much salary has been paid for the whole year. So it really does not matter. I know this because I asked BA if they needed additional documents ( I have a lett...

Looks like my efforts paid off.After repeatedly bombarding them with faxes, they finally told me today that it has been received and recorded. :D :D And it has been passed to a caseworker today. The call center guy was really nice, he called the caseworker and asked him if he needed any documents et...

You can give IELTS given in 2008. There is no section wise criteria, just an overall band 6 I think.

what was the reason you mentioned in urgent treatment ?

the idiots at HO are getting on my nerves


have sent them an urgent treatment fax three times and they say they have not received it. A week ago they told me that my case is with a caseworker, now they tell me it has yet to be assigned.
