HI Thank you for posting this. I think you are very lucky, bcos a wicked caseworker would have rejected your application. Someone posted this question of using a two year photograph last week. I hope people will learn from your experience Thanks a lot for posting this. I was the one who posted the ...

hsmp_1476- how do you do this call diversion to the Indian number? is there any option on skype? please explain Yes, there is an option is Skype. If you goto Skype options and look for call forwarding, you should be able to see all the details. You should have skype credit to do the call forwarding...

I think it should be fine to provide the visa copy. When I was searching for the jobs, 50% of the consultants would ask for it at the very beginning. If I atleast know that this is a real person and can find some details on their website, I have sent the copy of visa to them.

Not sure what you guys are getting fussed up about. The member says: (1) She does not have records of her exists because UKBA does not stamp Passport while leaving the country; and (2) Under a legitimate right under Turkish immigration control regime she chose not to get her passport stamped She is...

Is your qualification listed under PBS points calculator? Did NARIC letter say that your qualification was equivalent to UK Masters?

If yes, then I think there is a very high chance of winning this case in Admin Review.

Good luck

I was shoping in Boots the other day and the cashier left the till open as a jar fell off a shelf behind her. She turned around to help her colleage clear up the mess and I took all the money and left. It's not my fault she left the till open with the money in it. I don't view this as a crime. That...

I dont agree with Push here. Her original query was asking if one can provide false dates for the travel and get away with it, with out being noticed by HO. You may want to call it loopholes (which it is not) in the system, but it is still a fraud. I can argue that I will deliberately loose my passp...

Because ppl abuse the system like, they get tougher and tougher affecting the genuine applicants. I think there should be some way of linking this forum to HO and using whatever said here as evidense. Seda, atlease realise the imact of these frauds on other applicants. How do you feel if your applic...

can you please be a bit more specific?

I think its best to address it to the HO.

I had my ICICI bank statement printed using a dot matrix printer. But it did print the bank's name, logo etc. I had taken sign and seal for the same. Using this I had got my visa 1.5 years ago.

ya, makes sense. Just wanted to know if anyone has done this

I am exactly in the same situation as yours. My visa expires in Feb 2010, but am flying to India in December. I dont want to come back and apply as it would be too late and I will not have time for reapplying if the first one fails. so I am applying in Sep/Oct time, but had to book the flight ticket...

thanks Monday & HSMP2008_JANUARY. this is the most cost effective way i could go to uk and search for a job. only catch is, i’ll have to shell out more on the flight ticket nw. has anybody else got similar exp? please share your thoughts.. I think you, with a dependent visa can travel alone, befo...

Thanks applyhsmp & chetanojha for all the info. Is it possible to get some kind of shared accommodation for short term (around 3 to 4 months, until i get a job) which will be safe and affordable. I wanted something without this 6 months mandatory contract. It should be definately possible to get ho...

I know its a stupid question, but thought of asking it anyways as it might save some time. I have the photographs taken close to 2 years back for HSMP visa. Now that I am due for an extension, can I use the same photos? As per the guideliens, I know that they cant be older than 1 month. Has anyone t...

Yes, in some cases. When my wife was looking for a job on HSMP Dependent, she was refused a few times stating that their company policy doesnt allow depends to be hired. so if you have an option of getting Tier 1, just get that.

I think the problem is more with the Immigration officers in India (esp Mumbai) rather than UK, because over there they fail to understand the logic of "going to another country and searching for a job/ without a job"; I had to explain a great deal about HSMP & Immigration to them. Once you land in...

ya, mail them before 4-5 days and you should generally get your first preferred date.

In worst case, you can just walk in. A friend of mine who went there a month ago told that the number of applicants has come down a bit and he managed to get everything done in 3 hours time.

Good luck

Thanks for the pointer. I have got the statements stamped & signed on all the pages.

Hope it all works well.

If I were you, I would log into Lloyds internet banking and apply for last one year's statement. It would take 5 days to reach you.

Congrats.

For an extension, I think its only the economic circumstance which can change, so why dont home office simpliify the process of just asking for a bank statement and salary slip and grant the visa?? . They unnecessarily make us fill the huge application form and a huge money

Carrying GBP 4000 is unnecessary risk. You can get prepaid GBP cards in India. My friend had got one from Axis bank from India with some 2000 GBP loaded on it. You can use that freely in UK. Try considering such options or a travellor's cheque etc, but not so much cash.

Yes, they can work in most sectors, except as a doctor.

Hi, Lot of my friends from VTU have got their extensions done recently. If you know someone in Beigaum/Bangalore, you can ask them to visit VTU office and they will give a letter confirming the change in university name. Most of my friends had done the same. One of my friend had just mentioed it in ...
