It's been changed, if you see para 46 of guidance notes, it's clear there. WOW - my bad, sorry Shepherd. Looks like I was lucky to get it for 3 years. There does not seem to a clear section on UKBA which shows this. The only thing highlighted now is the visa cap but nothing about reducing from 3 to...

It's been changed, if you see para 46 of guidance notes, it's clear there.

you are rejcted due to no UK experience. I don't think that's the reason. Remember, not everybody starts in UK with UK experience. Not everybody is fortunate to be here onsite and switch or go back and come here. Everyone has to start somewhere. Stick there, and as mentioned by others, see if you c...

Aruni - in this case - any comments on the point below? 2) Another point here is - the allowance in EUR was credited to Citi world money card (based out of India), a day before i left to Germany. Can this be of any use? (like can i convert EUR to INR and then calculate earnings?) Because this was w...

1. Is it compulsory that i shoukld have pro-rated the salary before applying the conversion ratio ? I'm not sure what you are talking. But yes, you should have calculated you indian salary for no of days present in India and apply band D to it. and band A to rest of it. 2. Is it not enough that i w...

Why will you want to claim for 11 months when clearly the policy guideline states that you need to show proof of earnings for 12 months. Claiming for 11 months is planning to fail. One can claim any number of months(less than or equal to 12 months and within last 15 months, should be among 12 conse...

There is no proof at all that you have been in a relationship with your claimed spouse or that the relationship is still subsisting. I think you are just little unfortunate. Probably, a recent photograph of both of would have done work. Actually, document requirement in this area are vague,and ofte...

If you just put an Indian mobile number, nobody is really going to call as was discussed in the next thread related DB2 positions. Not entierly true. I never bothered to get UK number while in India for jobsearch. It was easy than trying to make stories. I used my mobile number back home. And manag...

its just my wife applied for dependant, for which i provided sponsorship letter and incorrectly mentioned my date of birth... Rest all documents including the main applicant section, passport all has same date of birth year... One more reason, why unnecessary information should not be given. I don'...

No, there is no way out.

You could earn citizenship in France in 2-3 years If you studied in french university for 2 years and know french. You may not feel it difficult, but majority of here do. Good luck with your decision. But, with every country there are lot's of positives and negatives. It's up to individual to decide.

latch wrote: she actually IS my dependant.

No, she isn't. Your visa and stay , is tied to main applicant(her). Not other way around.

No matter how you manage your family, but as far as visa is concered, you are her dependent.

But yes, companies usually apply for the Tier 2 visa themselves to have total control on you and treat you as their slave - such is the never changing mentality of Asian companies and most of us dont have any other option :cry: KP I think , it's little harsh on companies. Probably, having tier2 fit...

Vishnu, I re-read the guidance point 132. Unfortunately, I think, I'm wrong again, and you cannot use uplift factor, it clearly says, The country in which the applicant has physically undertaken the work , rather than his/her nationality, the currency payment is made in or the country in which payme...

I backtack from my previous post. Yes, probably you can use uplift factor to your Indian salary. Use point based calculator to calculate your points. It applied uplift factor automatically.

vishnu7185 wrote: am i eligible for an uplift?

No, you can't uplift your Indian salary. You need to convert it in GBP as it is.

It is hard to believe that, they haven't told you refusal reason. Be honest while entering information, that's what I can say.

satishbellapu wrote:I am telling you the fact which happens in UK.

This means, you either met all working Indians UK, and they said you so, or you are applying it to everybody, depending on your view.

satishbellapu wrote:Moreover we Indians put some kind of fake experience and ask for jobs. Still they get through the selection process,

That's gross generalisation in my view and insulting for hard working Indians.

So i was wondering if the above rumor is correct or not ?

Usually, whatever affects applicant, is published on UKBA website. If it's not there, then it's rumour.

To be honest, best approach is float your CV in market, and see what kind of response you get.

Thank you friends for your valuable advise, I finally got my visas stamped on my new passport. This was done as part of the Admin Review because VFS had misguided me into applying as fresh applicant. Thanks to Entry Clearance Manager in Mumbai. Cheers. Congratulations ! It must be great relief for ...
