in the old application method, You have to send your BRP to the HO and once your application is successful they send you your new BRP. In the new UKVCAS way, you retain all your originals, that means your BRP too, which i think you must either destroy it or contact the UKVI to see what to do with it...

No!The old BRP becomes invalid as soon as you get your new BRP.

Hi I’m looking to make a tier 4 visa application soon so I was wondering if any one knows if I’m able to use a bank statement with an account name of a company owned by my father, if not how do I go about this? I think the funds must in your parents personal account if you intend to use your father...

Please consult an appropriate Lawyer, Matters such as these are sensitive. It is not right to bring this into public domain. hope everything will become fine.

For switching from Tier 4 to Tier 2, you have several advantages, 1). No need for labour market test, 2). no need for the 30K annual salary. As a Tier 4 visa holder, you will be considered as a "new entrant". Now, you need to find out what the SOC code is for your profession (Appendix J), what is th...

If you leave the UK before a decision on your and BRP card, your Section 3C protection ends and you risk your application being withdrawn, as the new process clearly stated, and unable to re-enter the UK.

Thanks a lot for your advice. I got my visa approved today. Regards Pride88

Good News Everybody!! My Immigration lawyer received an email from HO stating that my Tier 2 visa has been approved and that I will get my BRP in due course( which i hope is within 2 or 3 working days). I will make a detailed timeline under the "Tier 2 in country timelines section" as well as in oth...

My Current tier 4 visa expired on 17th December. I applied for my tier 2 visa on the 12th Dec UKVCAS. the online application was done on 6th Dec. My situation has been escalated and I hope to hear from them tomorrow. If not, I wonder taking other steps which led me to ask this question Regards Pride88

Well, immediate advice and attention is the dream of everyone i guess. But I know thats almost impossible. I have learnt so much from these forums. Never will i take advantage of it. This much i can assure you.

Hi there, Could someone suggest from your experience on this. We've submitted Tier 2 general leave to remain application on 28th Nov and completed biometrics on 30th in UKVCAS new methed on 30th Nov and it is a priority service application, so we were expecting a response in 10 working days and til...

Of course i know everyone here are unpaid volunteers, Even i try to give advice if it come under the ambit of my little knowledge.

I am by no means using this forum as a on demand service, you unfortunately have wrong impression of me. Nothing wrong in asking for advice.

Please guys! Any advice will be welcomed! The delay to my application is making me mad

Hi All, is it possible for me to leave the UK without the BRP (Tier 2)once i get the decision letter??I can then ask someone else to post the BRP to me in India??

PS. I will need to change the destination address, any adivce on that would be helpful too.

Many Thanks.

Hello Guys Another update from me. As usual nothing positive yet! Called the HO helpline, I have called so many times that they remember my name, my case id, my first escalation, where i am calling from and at what time my SP appointment took place. LOL! It will take 5 working days from my escalatio...

Hi guys just an update from me (nothing positive yet) There was escalation and i got an email from UKVI contact centre yesterday mentioning that my application is still being processed (applied via SP on 12th Dec), Called them again today and they gave me an email address accessuk@homeoffice.gov.uk,...

Hi CR001, Please can you advice or give your opinion? Regards pride88

It will be pro-rated but I am not able to do the calculation for you but your actual salary will be less as you are contracted to less hours. Are you under 26 if you are looking at new entrant rate? https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-appendix-j-codes-of-practice-for-ski...

For the SOC 2112, the source is the migration advisory committee as stated in the guidance material, so the working hours will 37 hours per week, is it not. In that case, I am fine I think. Please let me know If i am wrong. The source of 2112 is not annual survey of hours and earnings. 2112 Biologic...

I had some spare time so have made a list of all the cases on here in the last few weeks. There does seem to be a lot more responses since middle of last week, so maybe they're getting on top of everything. This is not 100% perfect. I guess a few will have had responses and not posted in here about...

Anyone here can please help me with this question? It is really important for me. Regards!

Any advice on this situation will be highly helpful. Regards!

What is your SOC??

Thanks for for your reply. The code is 2112, biologist and biochemists. Minimum is around 21000 and experienced rate is around 28000. Your advice will be much appreciated.

Hi All, The SOC codes are based on a 39 hours a week according to the introduction of appendix J. I recently got issued a uCOS for a 37.5 hours a week. So, if i get a salary of 23000, does that mean i have to adjust the salary to the 39 hours a week level? Would that be the actual salary required an...

The salary is based on 39 hours, as clearly explained in the link below under 'Introduction'! https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-appendix-j-codes-of-practice-for-skilled-work Appropriate salary rates 14. Where these Rules state that an applicant must be paid the appropr...
