Any approvals received over the weekend for applicants applied in 3 rd week of July ?

There people in this forum who have used SAR at PEO as an evidence and sucessfully obtained ILR. It will be accepted as an evidence in decision making progress for a case.
Congrats on your approval.What is date on your approval letter ? Can you please also tell us whether it is a single or family application ? I guess it would be really useful to add this info (family/Single) to future upates . Looks like some single applcations are approved within 3 weeks and typical...

I totally agree with your points .HSMP/Tier 1 should be treated equally with EEA Nationals/ILR holders. Your points are pretty soild on ethical and moral grounds and even NHS Guidance document wants to follow the same principle. My point is there is no legal protection and the decision not to offer ...
The critical difference is HSMP/Tier 1 visa has got expiry date which means temporay visa. If NHS want to sign a contract for 5 years with prospective employee, they can't do that with HSMP/Tier 1 applicants and they have do it until visa expiry where as ILR/EEA national candidate they can. Again Ti...
It is good idea to use driving licence to take the test. Justice_will_reign , you will get your approval farily quickly. Because you have supplied passport for proof of residence and Driving licence for Proof of ID. cuts down processing time by few weeks.

You are not resident worker. You need to be british citizen or got Indefinite leave to remain (settled) to be treated as resident worker.

Approvals based on 3 months payslips is no longer happens for HSMP. You have to show some economic activity for the whole period by supplying P60 or P45 or payslips. Gaps in employment won't even come into picture if you have P60's all four years. ( working some/most part of every year on HSMP)
Your kids will be able to apply for british citizenship once you receive ILR. as per existing rules. For ILR, HSMP JR covers people entered UK up to Nov 06 but the new law passed few days back covers people entered UK only upto July 06 as it mentioned to below. You may have to apply for Probationary...
Probationary citizenship will be point based as well. You need qulaify again with new points system for Probationary citizenship and take it from there. People who entered UK after July 2006 will be assesed under new system.
Croydon PEO issues one letter for the whole family. Depdedents names and DOB will be mentioned on the letter. Unless you prove your dependents will need to apply sepeartely (if they have entered later that main applicant) it is unlikely they are going to issue separate letter for each dependent. Hop...
The word "settle" means you have legal right to stay in the UK which Tier 1 general doesn't give you or any visa which has got expiry date for that matter. Only citizenship and ILR does that. Tier 1 General gives access to UK job maket without any restrictions. You can try and see whether it works o...
