Hi All,

I know this is not the correct place to ask queries on visitor visa. However can someone refer me to the correct group please.

Thanks in advance.

I tried calling this number today. I connects to home office and provides various options to connect to different departments. As I am on VISA, I selects the first option and it gives some more options for different kind of visas. I disconnected as I am not able to connect to anyone and it's just pr...

Thanks CR001 for getting back to me.
It was after 4 to 5 hrs later i saw the calls, so did not call the number back. Tomorrow morning i will ring this number and find out more info (if home office opens on weekend). cheers.

Hi All, Hope everyone doing great and excitingly waiting for christmas and new year. Not sure if this had been discussed earlier. Apologies if I am repeating it. Today morning, my wife (dependent) received a call from home office (020 7035 4848). They asked her if she had internet access or not. She...

Hello Guys, I will soon be applying a dependent visa for my wife and I am aware of the documents that are required. My question is I have already included her name in the tenancy agreement (I have rented a house in the UK) which is from the month of October. Will this cause any issue as she is actu...

Thank you CR001 for your quick response.

Hi All and Gurus, Hope you all doing well. Apologizes if this question is already asked and answer. please direct me to the same. From Tier 2 G to ILR, I know we can apply after 5 years and for each 12 months, we can't stay more than 180 days. Correct me if I am wrong please. Provide the gov.uk link...

Option 1 would be more feasible. My current employer might be able to give me Tier 2 General. I discussed about it with them. But my HR mentioned that I need to go back to my home country to get the Tier 2 General visa and It may take up to 5 months, so she didn't want to do that now. Was she right...

Thanks Tureblue and ravi_ei.

Thanks trueblue19 for your response with detailed explanation. I really appreciate that. I will follow the same procedure in HMRC website to declare the tax. I presume I just need to declare the extra amount as halifax already paid the tax on my behalf stated in their statement. One question -> whil...

Thanks moonlight for clarifying this. Really appreciate your help.

@moonlight, thanks for your reply. Yes, my employer files my return in UK and I get P60. My query is : 1. For 2016 Tax Return, it was already done by my employer. Halifax statement also says that they rewarded £37.50 (before tax) - £7.5 (tax deducted) = £30.00 (net reward paid). From the statement, ...

Thanks CR001 for your quick response. Yes, You are correct - I might be over thinking because halifax letter states that this summary payment details will help completing the 2016 Tax return, which was already done by employer. As you mentioned there will be no effect on immigration application, I t...

Hi All, I have a question regarding extra amount of £60 per year credited to my current account. Last year around September 2015, I converted my Halifax current account to Reward Current account. After conversion, Bank started crediting £5 every month to my account. Last week, I got a statement from...

You can apply at the same time. It's a good idea to apply sponsorship license and running RLMT simultaneously so that you can save time. When RLMT is completed, if lucky, sponsorship license may also be approved. Good luck. Cheers.

Those who have already got their ILR will be able to provide the template of employer letter as it was already accepted by the case worker. If someone can post the same, it will be helpful for krishna1 and others as well. --- Cheers.

Refer to section 13 of the guidelines.

Hi Pandian,

You can use your overseas bank statement for maintenance. it does not need to be UK bank account. Make sure you have sufficient amount for minimum 90 days when you apply for the visa and till the visa decision.

To summarize the above in questions: Q1 : Can I apply for ICT long term immediately after ICT short te...
