Did you contact the governing body for advice? The issue is getting hold of each of the governing body's actual agreement. I know the FA agreement was that tier 2 could be used as long as the player met the language requirement prior to renewal of the visa. There is no reason as to why other governi...
Bit confused - if the appeal is dismissed that means you lost your appeal! Can not see why you would be happy with that outcome? I just found that out. I interpret it wrongly. FM, i was very unfortunate to get this decision. As other people who were refused solely due to covering letter got their a...
I think you might not have picked up on the point that you can not be employed in the UK unless the company has a PBS licence. If the company does not show up on the register of sponsors you can not be employed. That is the first question - is the company you are going to work for on the register? I...
They can't supply any visa - that is the problem. The only authority to issue a visa is UKBA. So as you can see there is no way round getting the working visa unless they are a licence holder. They can't and don't hold a licence so whatever they offer they can not deliver in their own right. Sorry t...
I live in the UK. Work for the immigration authorities - UKBA. One of my roles is to ensure companies such as you mention can not operate in the UK!! They promise much but can deliver nothing other than refer you to prospective employers who hold a licence. Umbrella companies are no longer able to s...
I agree - the appeal was on the question of the marriage. It was not accepted that the marriage was not one of convenience and as such the decision given by AIT agrees with the ECO. Metock will not overcome that point. If you apply again with evidence of the pregnancy you might stand a better chance...
It cannot be Charles', because he was applying for an EEA FP, not a visa. Maybe you can explain, Charles? In view of Important Judgement : EEA Family Permits , perhaps you can make an application to the Tribunal to reconsider the decision, on the grounds that the Tribunal made an error in law ? The...
Better to have stronger controls matched with students that can really afford the UK education the world craves. The alternative is to carry on accepting the systemic abuse and watch the UK become a third country educational nation because the qualifications are not worth the paper they are written ...
The company named is not on the UKBA register of sponsors so they can not bring in overseas nationals (OSN) to work in the UK. As for umbrella companies, this is an illegal method of entry for OSN workers in the UK. It is not approved by the immigration or taxation authorities. Hope that answers you...
I tried to get an answer about this situation; the rules do not stipulate what constitutes earned income in relation to PBS. It is impossible to differentiate between income subject to PAYE and income subject to self assessment. So from that point of view it matter not what the taxable situation is ...
This is a total joke. Typical of a scummy little back street immigration law outfit. Come and bust your balls for the square root of nothing!! Oh if we like you we will perhaps consider you for a job. As for students - OSN can not take the role as it would require a Tier 2 licence as it covered as e...
If it is in lieu of salary I believe it is counted as earnings. I think it comes down to the fact is the payment taxable or not. If it is a PAYE amount then it is earnings. If it is a redundancy compensation amount up to £30K it is not taxable so is not considered as "income" - someone like JOHN wi...
Until such times as you receive confirmation that your tier 2 visa has been approved you will not be able to work for your new employer. They can not / should not employ you until you have the visa grant in any event.
Are you still working for your "old" employer at the moment?
Getting the right to work is not automatic after one year. It very much depends on your circumstances and what country you are from.
There is no appeal process if the right to work is refused.
We have managed to get things wrong by a greater degree than even the HSMP case I can assure you
No one has said UKBA is a perfect operation run by perfect individuals. If that were the case I would have very little to do and more than likely be out of a job
Not harsh at all. I have only put to you a version of events that is in opposition to your position. I think you will find you have a much harder time in court from the PO than I have put to you. Perhaps consider the question you have asked, "is the appeal futile", you received more than one answer ...
It might be more of a chicken and egg set up. DWP may not let you register so no evidence to show insurers etc.... No insurance pay out. Suggest you contact DWP to see where you stand. As for UKBA finding out - your employer should tell them that your role and hence work permit has been terminated. ...
