Hi Sri, Congratulations! It 'almost' sounds simple! Can I ask you about some things please? I have another post going on here as well (mandysa) but just saw your post and thought I would ask you directly. Biometric details - do I have to take these again? I have a biometric work permit already If I...

Prepare a simple tabular column with list of dates (in and out), days of absence, short description and arrange it in the order of your qualifying years. Sign it. That should be enough as long as ur absence is in the threshold of <180 days in each qual. years). Additionaly you can add eticktes as su...

Dear Members & Moderators, My ILR date is due in another 10 days(Tier2 ICT+Tier1Gen/Permanent Employee). Since my employment history was missing with HMRC for 13/14 (rest of all initial 4 years were with HMRC) i have asked my current employer to submit my RTI. They confirmed afer submitting my RTI o...

@Swetha: Welcome to the forum! Firstly, in order to gain fair understanding of your position, take some time in reading queries which are similar to your post. as per the current rules, you need to prepare the start and end date of each of the 5 year period, and then calculate absence dates in each ...

Senior People, your advice is needed I want to finish off the documentation part asap

Hi IMB Team and members, I am due for applying ILR in April last week - Tier2(ICT)+Tier1Gen My X Company (when i was in Tier2) have provided absence letter in the following format without dates in it. It is because they dont have any data of my business/vacation leave details though I provided to th...

If all of them Under Tier 1. No need to provide them then. All the Best.

How to pay the excess fee - Thats actually a million dollar question :-) :!: I am in the same boat as well. New fees will be coming into effect on 6 April 2014 for sure and new form too, thats for sure. Most feel that we have to pay the excess on D-Day or we should get some notification from UKVI. A...

Yes - If it is part of Qualifying years for ILR.

Hi great.britain,

Did u made the change successfully? If yes which number you contacted?

I have a similar issue where it came 'Mrs' instead of 'Mr'

I have a very simple situation actually Initial Leave - 10 June 2010 - 10 June 2013 (Entered UK 10 June 2010) Extension - 2 June 2013 - 2 June 2015 (PEO Extension) So there is a shortfall by 8 days covered by the 28 days rule With the new changes, I am wondering if I am forced to do a 2nd extension...

This is definitely a new clause - did not exist before... (b) on the date that the continuous period of 5 years (or 4 years as appropriate, as set out in (a)) ends, has leave as a highly skilled migrant, and has spent the remainder of the period with leave as a highly skilled migrant, a work permit...

All the Best Zeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Dear All, Based on this post, does this mean those who will apply for ILR in June 2014 will not be considered if their 5 years fell short by less than 3 months due to entering the UK in 2009 after 2 months of getting the first Tier 1? Thanks. No. Your safe provided if you dont fall under general gr...

Hi Kurian,

If the 2nd T2 ICT Visa was a new application instead of extension of the first T2 ICT, then unfortunatley, by the rules, it becomes unqualified for ILR Application.

You need wait until you complete your 5 year, starting from Nov 2010.

Yes, Booking date = intended PEO date - 42 days. Definitely slots are not full for your June requirement, instead they haven't released it yet. Though you can see that calender is wide open for next three months, its of no use really. EX: On 10 March, you can see slot released for the date upto 21 A...

Hi, First year I was on T2(ICT) and shifted to T1(Gen). Since I dont have the P60, I wanted to apply for Employment History. Since UKBA caseworker will check for my details with HMRC for Tax and NI Contributions during the application PEO day, i wanted to have it beforehand. Please let me know will ...

I am salaried employee in UK since May 2009 and I changed my job last year May 2013. In order to get my employment history, I called HMRC...
