My take on this is that HO was covered on the legal aspect by virtue of statement in WP form that such was also an application for Leave To Remain for in-country applicants. Further note that the Home Secretary has immense power to grant LTR even orally irrespective of how the LTR is application is ...

Are you aware of any impediments to you taking work in your chosen field (such as debarment from required organisation)? Impediment/debarment in this context refers to those reasons that would stop you from practicing in your profession in the U.K. Such tends to be for regulated professions - for e...

I am sorry to hear that your H-1B visa was refused. Regretably the H-1B cap for this fiscal year has been reached and I suspect any repeal of the refusal/ acceptance of a new application may have to be for the next fiscal year starting in October 2004. Various exemptions appy to the cap but more inf...

AFAIK there are no employers/ agencies etc posting recruitment on this board and presume that such is not allowed in any case. You should go to the usual job related sites e.g. www.monster.co.uk where you may find an employer in your relevant occupation that is willing to sponsor your work permit. G...

The period in which you cannot be absent for not more than 90 days is 'only' the year immediatley before the application date not previous years. It thus appears that you will be o.k. to apply for naturalisation in the circumstances you describe as long you as still meet the overall residence requir...

My intial opinion is that you are likely to get points at senior level rather than as a specialist - I would need to know your skills set and what you did in the technical role vis a vis that being standard in your industry to evaluate scoring points for being a 'specialist'. Hope that helps.

Zia, Your qualifications are considered equivalent to a UK bachelors degree = 15 points. You may or may not wish to use NARIC for an equivalency assesment but many posters on the previous board with similar qualifications got 15 points. Needless to say most of them were complaining that they should ...

My 0.02 c, Appreciate it appears there are too many sublinks here in relation to the 'old' board. However new board is really in 2 sections. One is the UK and this IMHO is appropriatley split into the main sections as per queries on old board - the move to isolate/ position HSMP apart is especially ...
