It is satisfactory to show 1st April to 30th June, if you are applying on 20th July. This satisfies all three rquirements. To address any un-foreseen troubles, can you arrange until mid-July? I'm not familiar with ING statements but I had provided my bank's statement without any stamping. They are l...

Do you think I haven't told him yet? He just let the employer know his visa had expired and they terminated the Contract (he didn't provide more info on application status). Trying to sort this out - It shouldn't be a problem now. Do you think ALL those who have filed for an early extention are in a...

And now we go in to beloved. well done. This is why I didn't want to dwell further - coz we are going no-where. And, I dont want to retract my point. I still stand by that. If you don't want to stand up & defend your case against recruiters, that's fine. It's your career. But, jumping the queue is n...

I'm following only the rules posted in HO website. So, is going by guidelines wrong? Did I delay my application? From what you are saying, it implies that - even though we donot follow rules, our application should be processed first. So, Mind your own business. This is like a Gunda talking. There i...

A/c, Can you tell us why you fired those two members? Were they lacking skills? Hi, What you say is right, but I was deputed from my Indian company here, so ever get a chance to know about the HR consultants. Now also I was deputed from Indian company. If u have any list of HR consultant please let ...

See what I told is correct Kandasamy. Personalised covering letter is a must. Hi, What you say is right, but I was deputed from my Indian company here, so ever get a chance to know about the HR consultants. Now also I was deputed from Indian company. If u have any list of HR consultant please let me...

No body is willing to give it in writing because it is not legally correct & instead of challenging those decisions, it is kind of cowardly to accept things as they are & keep blaming the economy. I dont want to discuss this further. Even when the titanic sank they let the women and children first. ...

Even when the titanic sank they let the women and children first. But, even now nobody let's even an ambulance passby in India. If you analyse, maybe urgent cases are posted here but there are 1000s who watch the posts and start firing applications. No employer will or can quote near visa expiry dat...

If you ahve 20 months of UK experience why haven't you heard from consultants yet. The reasons could be, 1) you are still far away to be called for interview. Temp jobs are filled in few days. 2) Your CV doesn't have a cover letter - explaining why your skills suit that job better. The cover letter ...

when was your visa expiring & how many points did you claim? Change from HSMP to Tier 1 (General) In country application. • Application sent on 17th June. • Acknowledgement letter received 22nd June • Passport and document received with visa on 25th June Visa granted for 3 years. It’s very q...

In my view, Immigration is not just about getting a job. Think long term, 20 to 30yrs - do you want to settle & raise your kids here? Don't view this as a 'cat on the wall' scenario. If I were you, I'd resign and come to UK and make this my new home. Don't have a Plan B, in that way you would put in...

Just chill guys...

The Govt needs to be tougher but they themselves are surrounded by many invoices. While so many of us have gone through pay cuts and job losses. The Unions are playing hard-ball here.

We have come across so many obstacles. 3 days strike is nothing.

Guys, Can everyone follow a queue here?? http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/tier1/general/applying/whenandhowtoapply/ How about guys like me who have 1 month for their visa expiry. Shouldn't we get our applications processed first? Don't give me jobs, credit crunch, permanent offers et...

You haven't answered - Do you qualify if don't include May 2008?

If yes, you can send it asap. No need to wait until Aug 09.

Very good, let's encourage queue jumping & many will follow. Now-a-days, getting a Crodon PEO appointment has become much tougher than getting a H1B visa or a multi-millin lotto rollover. If by chance anyone is interested, it is 1 month before your leave expires. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/wo...

It is any consecutive 12 month of the previous 15 month. So I guess, May 2008 will be the 15th Month if you apply in Aug 09. (Aug 08 to June 09 = 1 yr = 12 months; July 08 = 13; Jun 08 = 14 ; May 08 = 15th month) At which date in May 08 was the amount credited in your account? Do you qualify if don'...

One month UK experience isn't a big sell factor. There could be others who have many months of DWH experience and are readily available in UK too. Are you in UK or India? Unless you are here, it would make much difference of sending CVs to consultants. Hi, From my company I was deputed at London for...

It isn't a mandatory requirement that you need to highlight for approval. In either way, the CW will go through all the pages. Don't lose your mind over this. Just chill yaar. By the way, haven't you been around here for few yrs now? why applying after a long time... Hi All, As I applied yesterday w...

Well, firstly I'm not your mate. Don't use it on people you don't know. (this will be useful when doing business here.) This is just my opinion. Second, no one carries full funds in cash. TCs are one option. After one month it might be costlier and time consuming to receive funds from India. At one ...

My guess is that you wouldn't want to get the funds out of FD itself and see if you can try managing with the amount you are carrying.

If that's the case - good luck. You will not probably.

There's a reason why HO states X amount of funds as maintenance.

I don't appreciate this. The caseworker maynot bother about your visa expiry date & you might want to extend it because your employer wants a "longer valid visa". Result, geniune applicants who have 1 to 2 months for their visa expiry can't get an appointment in Croydon PEO or their postal applicati...

Hi, If everyone jumps the queue and starts applying many months in advance, esp in the current times - my feeling is that we will only end up in chaos. I don't have a problem HO processing applications earlier but i don't want them to hold off geniune cases who have sent their files at the time pres...

I will save you time. Here is the link --> http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/workingintheuk/tier1/general/applying/whenandhowtoapply/ It clearly states - "One month before your leave runs out..." In my two years here, 've seen a fair deal of agencies/ employers - good, bad & ugly. I'm only telling y...

And you want it to be mailed to your mail id as well? Hmm...

No I put it wrong, 'am applying for FLR not ILR. I don't think the guidance states you can apply for FLR - anytime before your visa expires. If that's the case, one can spend 1yr of the 3yr Tier 1 and apply for FLR. Couldn't they, theoritically? My employer offered me a Perm job even though I had on...
