You should have asked them to post your statement to your branch rather than your home address, its a lot quicker (think mine took 2 days). Ask your wife to write to the caseworker in case she is not able to submit the original by the deadline and really its up to the discretion of the case worker w...

I had this issue when my wife applied for her dependent visa long time ago,where HSBC printed out the statement and then stamped it. I had to go go back and request the branch to print the statement on their letterhead which did the job. But I believe banks are very strict nowadays and don't do anyt...

Don't get so paranoid,the first week of Uni is only induction and there are hardly any studies that take place and even if you miss a couple of lectures you could always catch up, I am sure if you explain to your Uni that you could enroll a couple of weeks later that should not be a problem as surel...

If you have already been granted psw visa there is no requirement to show any finance whether you are entering for first time or re-entering. So just relax and enjoy your trip.

Dear deandias,
Its an old trick which UKBA is aware of. Neither you or your dependent would be allowed to switch in-country both of you need to go back and apply from your home country.

Send in your original bank statement showing the correct maintenance fund is all you need along with a copy of your passport and your BRP with all the usual docs for your dependents like marriage certificates,DOB certificates etc Other than that things like employment and accommodation is not a requ...

Read the policy guidance on PSW dependent before throwing your queries. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/working/tier1/poststudy/dependantapplications/assessmentoffunds/ http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/pbs/pbsdependantspolicy1.pdf If you have got acc...

They would question you the purpose of this visit as long as you give them a satisfactory answer ie Wanting to start a new course which is a progression from your previous qualification or you already have an offer from a new education provider you should be fine. Assuming you haven't got any other ...

As long as your uni confirms that you successfully achieved your qualification and just waiting for your degree that is acceptable. 'Provisional' implies that there is a possibility degree may or may not be awarded if you meet/do not meet certain other condition.

Hi guys I have received unconfirmed news but it looks like there maybe some light at the end of tunnel for people who have applied on the basis of ACCA fundamental level. In one of the recent upper tribunal hearings (I'll update the case no when i get it) involving ACCA fundamental whereby home offi...

Yeah true ...........just an advice to all the people who have applied PSW on the basis of ACCA fundamental and your leave to remain has not expired its almost impossible to overturn your refusal (most likely outcome, however views may differ) as it would mean no right to appeal only a judicial revi...

Just "Home Office" should be fine with your full details on the back of P.O like your name,address,D.O.B,passport no etc

You cannot use a CAS more than once its not very clear from your post if you have used an old one or applied for a new one??? Assuming you have got a new CAS you need to submit all the docs which is mentioned on your CAS letter, a progress report would have been necessary as it is the basis of your ...

Can't you write down the important bits from the judgement? surely if you read them should give you a fairly good idea what was the decisive factor?

The call center people are generally rude or unhelpful or they haven't got a clue what they are talking about. But I don't get through to UKBA call center but a specialist line the number for which is not available in public domain. Really lucky as my MP gave it to me to contact this person and this...

Same as you in fact a bit later than you, I contacted UKBA and have a direct phone number for a complaint liaison manager (this no. is specially for MP's to contact but my MP being lazy just gave me the no. and asked me to contact UKBA directly with any queries),who I spoke with today and he advised...

I haven't been to that stage yet . I am still awaiting my decision on the contrary I thought you were mean't to upload your friend's decision for us.

Hope floats............

The very objective is this forum is to save ourselves from immigration solicitors/consultants by getting first hand advice from people who have undergone similar experience. By promoting an individual we are acting against the very spirit and objective why this forum was established. If some people ...

I am not criticizing or being arrogant without reason. TBH I am absolutely in the same situation like yourself and it doesn't help me to criticize a genuine person unnecessarily, however if you click on Nahid's profile and follow all the post he/she has been posting you would find a striking similar...

Check with UKBA if they have the correct postal address and which address did they sent your biometric information as in a lot of cases UKBA have messed up applicants address and send letters and documents to wrong addresses. Not suggesting that this would have happened in your case but its worth re...

You don't speak to the caseworker who actually decides your application, calling up UKBA repeatedly may upset few call center people but it is unlikely to have any impact on your application or your decision.

Apart from him I haven't come across any cases where people have had success on ACCA qualification which would automatically lead you to question what exactly is his argument that none other lawyer in the UK could produce the same. Sometimes success can be very incidental and may not necessarily be ...

I don't really like the sound of it....Even though my initial thoughts about Mr Marfat was good but it seems there are some people who are hellbent on giving him an exhalted status as if he has a solution to every immigration problem in the world. Agree that he has some expertise with regards to ACC...
