When i came here in April 2008, i can see lot of frustrating post about jobs but i find the market quite good for me. That's what I want to underline. UK job market never was booming like India. Some people will find job within week, some people do not find job after months. It depend on luck,timin...

No, it doesn't work the other way around because my comment makes sense in the context of the economic crises. You came up with 1:10 ratio like it was some kind of fact so I say prove it. All I said, it is likely the reverse because of the economic crises, which mean probability. My statement for s...

This applies to you,too, the way you said it's other way around.

Just add to my post, everybody on this forum gives opinion, and not authority.

f it is what the other person said, then I want him to provide a valid source for his information. How you expect me to present valid source. Shall I make my friend and his wife post here ? As everybody on this forum, I just replies depending on what I see. UK market never been like India(booming)....

Hi, I had also contacted UKBA Helpline in the meantime and the Information given by the Agent was not encouraging. She said since the initial HSMP approval was done outside UK, then the proof for qualifications are required to be submitted. ( In my case all the documents were sent to the UK office ...

What kind of advice is this? Can you explain, what you are doing in UK, advising them not to come to UK ?

You should consider Gross salary not net salary. For 40 points it should be more that £34999.

this is another most rediculous law, There is no law like this. If you see link by tipu20 , there is clear provision for such cases. I think, in OP's case , it's case of avoidance by VFS. I don't see it's as mistake by BHC, he should not have applied as Tier1 application in first place. He should h...

Thanks Tipu, I had checked with local VFS office & VFS helpline and they all said I need to re-apply as fresh application... but there is a list of miscellaneous services available but don't know whether transfer of visa is one of the valid options there... http://www.vfs-uk.co.in/visafees.aspx thi...

PKumar, it's rude to use such language, while asking help on forum. I'm no more interested in this thread.

Can you tell me the page no in the Guidance notes? I couldn't find it. Remember to mention the pages for Point 1 and 2 I listed. I am sure people are looking forward to this information. NOTE: please don't interpret anything as people are looking for precise wordings. Thanks! What exactly you didn'...

So the ball is in the immigration officer's court. Yes, it's always them , who decides in entry in to UK. I have personally seen people on a long-term visitor's visa, living in UK for 6 months, exiting for only a month or two and then return, living for nxt six months and so on. They had no problem...

I am planning to visit Paris on 27th Dec with my wife, but I find that there are no appointments for Schengen visa shown available for December on the French Consulate site. Only appointments in Jan 2010 are shown available. What does this mean - that all appointments/visa quota has been exhausted ...

can anyone please suggests what can be done in this situation. Can he go for appeal? or can he go back India and apply fresh visa from there? If he goes back India then will it be a problem with same issue to apply new visa? Any one please feel free to write your opinion on this matter. I think, th...

During his initial application he needed to show around Rs 50000 salary per month in India and that’s the reason he opted for false documents though he had genuine job in India with less salary. That's not justification for being cheat. I'm surprized to see that, still you are representing him he...

I think you need one more extension. You can apply for ILR 28 before you complete 5 years in UK. So if you entered UK on 31st Jan 2008, you can apply on or after 3rd Jan 2013. Provided satisfied other requirements.

Rule of thumb is, you should not visit more than six month in a year.
