No, Tier 1 (Gen) remains closed to all new applicants whether inside or outside the UK.

Those already in the UK under Tier 1 can still extend.

UKBA have no right to retain your passport. I would suggest contact your local MP as matter of urgency and explain the situation. Any border security force in the world retain your passport or identity documents if they believe they are forged. It's a little difficult to say that UKBA have no right...

Can i start a business just for the sake of obtaining a visa? No!! Checks conducted by the UKBA could confirm that you are not operating a business after the grant of your visa and this could lead you to having your visa curtailed. This is not recommended for the sake of obtaining a visa. I suggest...

The fact that caseworkers were issuing from date of expiry was not in line with the Immigration Rules and merely from guidance. Unfortunately, migrant's...
