Have anyone tried writing to their MP's? I've heard this on NUS website that if your visa is causing delays, you can write to your MP (but be polite and generous).

The problem with this setup is that, even if applicant gets Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa, he will get his visa revoked as funds would not get transferred to UK. (he will also have problem extending his visa.) Actually they just want entry to UK. Nobody is insterested to do business or visa extensions. ...

1. The first thing UKBA want to check is if you are able to communicate in English or not. 2. Once that's out of the way, then they ask about the sponsor funding source (if you have applied via Sponsor or Venture Capital). Usually, agents who recycle money do not inform their clients much about thir...

In my view, you have strong evidence to support your claim (e.g. salary slips). Therefore, going for appeal is a proper step. Since your previous visa is expired, you cannot re-apply unless you get 60 days notice. but, at the end of the day, its all about convincing the judge/magistrate at the heari...
