Re: Awaiting WP->Tier-1

Hi Ace, thank you for the reply I hope this were the case but when I spoke to the HO for further advice, they categorically told me to stop working as I have failed to make a "valid in-time" application.

Re: Awaiting WP->Tier-1

I agree with ACE. If you can get them (HO) to accept new forms and replace the old ones with the new ones, that will be great.

Thanks

Thanks sushdmehta It was some relief to read that post and that the Home Office is being considerate. I spoke to the Home Office about section 'D' of the forms. They are only an issue if one has a previous application pending with the Home Office and the leave to remain has already expired when this...
