Can you please send the link for the guidance. I am looking for this as well.

I was completing the Set (O) form and realised that there are a few pages which can be easily missed by anyone. Can you confirm that people who are on tier 1 general need to fill out the following: Page 38: Section C Continuous residence Page 43: Contiuous residence Do we need to fill out any of the...

I am in the same boat as you and very worried about it.

I was changing jobs at the time and I left my job on 31 March, 2012 and went to Pakistan for holiday. I then came back on 15th April to start work. Unfortunately, I am also unsure what to do.

Really Amber. I thought the visa validity also had to be for 5 years for the 28 day rule to apply. Could you confirm.

Brilliant. I am in the 30 + 10 camp. Money saved.

You are my hero.

How and where can I find out whether my degree scores 0 or 10?

Dear Forum, To answer these questions once and for all, can you please clarify the following: a) If your degree is on the PBS calculator, do you need a comparability letter? b) If your degree is on the PBS calculator, do you need the NARIC English Language check? Can this be used instead of any Engl...

Clearly I don't. All of the things except Utility bills are in my name.

Dear All, Can you please confirm if the following text is ok in a letter from landlord in cohabitation proof: Dear Sir / Madam, I am writing to inform you that Mr XX and Mrs. XX lived at 509 Summerton House, London XX11 YY11 from 26/03/2012 to 12/12/2013. The total duration of stay was approximately...

does the comparability take care of the English language requirement as well?

thanks, just one more question. My degree is listed in the PBS calculator and it is from USA.

Is it Statement of Comparability or English Language Assessment that I need to get?

or is it both?

Q1) For Tier 1 to ILR route, do I need to get the Bachelors and the Masters degree certified by NARIC or can I only get the Masters one certified.

Q2) If I have a Bachelors and a Masters from the same university, and I want both to be certified, will NARIC charge double?

Regards,

You will definitely need to apply for another extension. The problem is that your original visa and its extension combined do not add up to 5 years. If the dates on the visa and the extension added up to five years, you could then apply 28 days before. Since this is not the case YOU HAVE TO GET AN E...

Dear All,

Is there a limit on maximum days outside the UK in ANY ONE SINGLE visit?

Hi,

Thanks for everyone's help. Some questions below:

1 - Does my wife need to prove her English requirement for ILR if she is my dependent?

2 - She has a Masters from Imperial College of London. Do I need to do anything (like NARIC) or can I just take this degree to the PEO appointment?

Do they really check for this though as the SET(O) form doesn't really ask for spouse details.

Am I missing something?

My wife went to visit family and was gone for 102 days consecutively. She has come back in March. I am applying for ILR in January 2015. Does this leave affect her eligibility for ILR?

Any help on this would be appreciated.

Dear All,

There is a business trips template that is available in the forum topics. However, there is no template for paid annual leave templates. Can someone please help with this template.

Regards,

Do you even need a letter to say that you were on paid annual leave? I don't think so. Can someone confirm.
