My wife applied on 03/03/2014
Recieved her approval today 11/04/2014.

I guess this is the fastest in the history of UKBA. Well done UKBA. You made a world record.

One of my client got visa on Monday. He'd put customer's mobile number in the trading contract.

But I would still recommend to have customer's landline number to be on the safe side.

You can join an existing business i.e getting registered as director of the business. But bear in mind that you'll need your 50k available funds as I assume that your mate has not disclosed you as member of entrepreneurial team on his application form.

I'm due to apply for BC in April 2013. I don't need to disclose it on the form. However, I'll send my licence and the couterpart in the application.

Sonakshi Provided you paid the fine & surrendered the licence in time and did not challenge the FPN in court; you are all safe. There is no gamble involved and you'll get your ILR without any problem. I was in a similar suituation as I had CU80 offence but paid my fine and surrendered my licence in ...

Good Please clarify if your husband was convicted in court or by the police officer. Your husband's application can only be refused if he was convicted in court. Otherwise it will only be a FPN. A lot of people with similar offence (Not in court) have had successful applications. Please clarify. Reg...

Please see below 2nd paragraph of Page 4 of Tier 1 (entrepreneur) application form: "Applications made on this form may not be made in person at a Public Enquiry Office of the UK Border Agency." Moreover, applicable fee of £1,020 stated in application form relates to postal applications. PEO applica...

The business can be funded from an overseas account. There is no requirement to bring funds in one go. You can bring them gradually as and when the business requires it. However, you need to make sure that you bring in and invest 200k before your extension. As the immigration consultant told you tha...

@Smehmood If you continue reading A13 in the policy guidance you'll see the para below: "Central banks may also have supervision over some financial markets. For a list of international central banks not registered with the FSA, we will use the list of central bank websites on the Bank for Internati...

Hi

I guess you are on PSW. You can go for 50k category only if you apply inside UK. As you have not maintained funds so that is a problem.

If you switch to Tier 4 or go back to your country then you can only apply for 200k category.

Regards

Hi You are getting it right in terms of 3 months rule. You see the requirement is simple in the policy guidance that you should be registered as director or self employed. So if you have only applied for registration but not yet registered; then it may be upto caseworker. He may not bother, may ask ...

Just at the time of application is fine.

Registering company is the best option.

Hi

It is State Bank of Pakistan and not Securities and Exchange Commission.

It does not matter that how old is the company. The requirements are: 1. Investment in the company should not be older than 1 year from the date of application. 2. Appointment of applicant as director of the company should be within 3 months from the date of application. If you appointed yourself as...

Here are your answers: 1. You can have your funds in more than 1 account. Absolutely no problem with that. However, both applicants should have any access to the total of £50K. 2. Best thing to do is to have limited company and yes both of you can be the directors in one company. 3. Apparently you s...

Smehmood I agree with you. UKBA can only verify the document submitted to them. They can't have any ongoing checks on your account. Crazy_ram You can use your funds for the business. But there is a certain way of doing this. You should invest funds in your business in the form of share capital. Then...

What if we are entrepreneurial team and we have a joint account with both names of entrepreneurial team appearing on the statement.

Is the bank statement still sufficient or do we need a letter from the bank that funds are available to both team members.

Regards

All I am applying under 50,000 category. I have my funds in Barclays UK bank account. Is my bank statement sufficient to claim all 75 points. OR Do I also need to attach a letter from the bank stating that funds are available to me and that bank is regulated by FSA. Do I really need this letter? Reg...

MILI

I understand you applied in 50,000 category with full funds in UK.

Did you only attach your bank statement to claim all 75 points (i.e availability of funds 25, FSA regulated bank 25 and transferability of funds to UK 25).

OR

Did you also attach a letter from the bank?

Regards

memyselfandi

I understand that you showed your funds in a UK bank account.
Did you also include any letter from the bank or is that not required for funds held in UK?

Regards

She should apply on form FLR(M) i.e dependent of a person present and settled in UK. Why you did not switch your wife's visa before 9 July 2012. She may now wait for another 5 years to become eligible for ILR.

Hi

My parents' visit visa was rejected and I want to appeal against the decision. The most important step is drafting GROUNDS OF APPEAL. Can anybody let me have sample grounds of appeal relating to visit visa. I'll then change it according to my case.

thanks

Imran

Did your sister get any reply yet?
