Thanks sush!!!

I just called up the call centre and was told that this is fine..As long as dates are correct.

So thank you guys for all your help..I had a tough last month and a unique experience at PEO(...

Ok.. Here is my unique experience. Went to Home office at 7.30..At the door ,I was asked to show the form at the entrance.. First response was “this is not the right form .It is for application for outside UK"I was terrified..I knew that I was correct,but was not able to convince them.I told them th...

Hello, I managed to get 2nd extension under HSMP JR ..I had PEO appointment yesterday (What happened there??Long story ,coming up soon).. My concern is : In my stamp /vignette has no mention of HSMP/Tier 1 : It just says :Limited leave to remain.. Other detail like date ,place,remarks are fine.. Sho...

Thanks for your comments... So I am now really at a cross road.. Although I feel that my application shouldnt get rejected,there is always a risk... My situation:HSMP/Tier1 expiring on 16th Nov PEO appointment booked on:9th Nov.. PEO:I am jst thinking that in worst case, if my application gets rejec...

Hello, I have heard that some times PEO accepts the application,but will send it for further consideration (and so WON'T give decision on the same day). My questions are: 1)Under what circumstances they do that?I am just wondering that if it is wise to spend extra 600 GBP and then they send it by po...

Any one ,who has applied under HSMP-JR ?The above cover letter is OK?Or am I giving them too much inforamtion and in turn doubting their common sense?

Hello, I am in a dilema about what ALL to inclde in cover letter.. Following is my cover letter which "spoon feeds" the case worker about policy/rules etc.. Do you guys think that i am "teaching" case worker and he might take it as negative?I just want to make sure that case worker is aware of all H...

Hello, I have an PEO appoinment on 9th Nov 2011. My history: I received my 1st Letter of approval in June 2006. Received HSMP stamp in Nov 2006. Applied for incountry extension in Nov 2008 ,got extentions for 3 years.Valid till Nov 2011 I was out of country from Jan 2010 to June 2011.. Came back in ...

Hi,

Did they take the fees from you??If yes,then would be sad,because they charged you for personal appointment and then tell you to send my post..

Hello,

I have now secured a Personal appoitment at Croydon...I have been warned that they would first validate my application if they can judge it or not on the same day...I have said YES for it.

So the info. on the website about PEO is not correct (atleast they are giving an appoitment)

Right, I called up the call centre to confirm the details.. I was told that i need to show that i was working before i left the country and started working after I returned.. However,I was out of country for more then 18 months...So my last employement was in Jan 2010 (when i left UK) I came back in...

Thanks Sush.. I have done some research on this and found that i can go for "administrative review" and not "appeal".. http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/customs-travel/beforetravel/visas/administrative-review/. However it says that If you are already in the UK, you cannot apply for an administrative...

Thanks sushdmehta... So how does one get a right to appeal? In my case ,i believe ONLY if the case worker misinterprets the rules about HSMP High court judgement then my extension would be rejected..Else HSMP JR form and application is quite straight forward and requires no points qualification. So ...

Hello, I have a question about application date: My HSMP visa is expiring on 26th Nov 2011.. 1) Ideally I should be applying in 1st week of NOV (It would also help that my oct salary would be reflected in that) 2)However,just in case my HSMP visa is rejected for some reason(as per my knowledge it sh...

Thanks goldfish..I agree with 'economic activity ' part .Need to provide all kinds of supporting docs.. But do i need to provide my qualification letter,age certification etc.? I guess(hope) the answer would be NO as HSMP JR form only asks for economic activity (payslip,bank statatement,offer letter...

Hello, Just to add some information : I just came back to UK (2 months back).I am now working. Basically , we need NOT earn ANY points for extension ,isnt it? I saw the form for FLR(HSMP) and it says only to prove just economic activity I hope i am right.. So if i attache job offer,payslips and bank...

sushdmehta :Thanks for calming my nerves ..

keeping my fingers crossed

sushdmehta :We were posting at the same time: I know that we all are aware of the rules which are clear .Problem is that case worker dont follow that /use their own discretion .. Is there any thing which i need to include in my appn?I am going to attach print outs from the UKBA website and also the ...

Hmm..So i cannot apply IN PERSON for HSMP extension..
I am sure that my application would be considered under TIER1 extension becuase of lack of knowldege/will..

I am very concerned..It is clearly mentioned that i can apply under HSMP JR for n no. of times,but they dont follow that rule:(

I know. ---------------------- Here is the transcript I obtained HSMP leave under the old arrangements and currently hold a grant of leave that will take me to the settlement threshold. How am I affected? Close As you will be able to apply for settlement once you reach the threshold you are, in prac...

Hello, My history: I received my 1st Letter of approval in June 2006. Received HSMP stamp in Nov 2006. Applied for incountry extension in Nov 2008 ,got extentions for 3 years Now i need to apply for 2nd extension (Since i was out of country for 1 year ..I just came back to UK in Aug and now i am wor...

Kumar,

I am in EXACTLY same boat as you..My 2nd Ext is coming up in nov 11..my 1st extension was as per HSMP JR..
So ,just use the same form as we need not re-qualify..

Please let me know how it goes..As i am next...

Thanks for your reply.. But then imagine 5 candidates invited for an interview and no technical questions asked.. How do they judge about 'fitting in'?? I feel that i am competing technically with other candidates and would like to prove my self ..(Its like appearing for Science exam and question pa...

Hello, I have attended 3-4 interviews in UK in last 2 months..My query is how do they assess? In ALL my interviews , no technical questions were asked . I was asked a)about my past exp, b)some brief about my self, c)what would you do under certain scenario? d)Your strengths and weakness etc Basicall...
