Any updates, Angelica?
I have checked the link and discover that UKBA had a modernised version of the 1997( which appear to address my problem). Is the 1997 one in place in 2009?

Cheers

Well...the choice is yours. 1) You can make use of your UK bank balance for application made in india. 2) Make sure you pass your dissertation before you EVEN think of going back home. Submitting disertation does NOT guarantee passing it. Weigh your option very well. It appears it is cost effective ...

Work permit holders went to court and lost. The HSMP Forum Ltd judgement is not about work permit holders at all. PSW applicant went to court but Tier 4 applicants then benefit on the same maintenance funds refusals I believe the main issue in HSMP is the 4/5 years now leading to settlement. The sa...

I thought there should be a ''legitimate expectation'' for everyone that is affected by 4/5 years rule.

Even work permit holders went to court as well albeit 'not well grounded'

I thought every applicants who is entitled to ILR based on 4 years continuous stay can gain from HSMP forum judgement.

Remember pankina judgement was launched by PSW applicant but the benefit was enjoyed by people in Tier 4 as well.

I an NOT very sure of your time as a 'visitor'. Please read the guidance. I think you should go ahead with applying on a 10 years and wife as a dependant of a person applying for settlement(seperate application). There was a form for something like that. While considering your application, they will...

Its strange but that is the reason.

It was almost 2 years NOW. At that time telephone numbers was in the mandatory section. They later made it ''optional'' within the mandatory section.

1) The fact is that Tier 1 (PSW) cannot be extended (for any reason). So, either you can follow the suggestion offered by Greenie or, if you wish to, may remain in the UK beyond the expiry date of your current leave - and become an overstayer. Do note that staying in the UK for more than 28 days as...

Home office Policy on email and telephone!

Hi everyone,

I have read the UKBA documentations several times and cannot just figure this out.

1) How do they use our email address?

2) When can they contact us(applicants) by telephone or emails?

3) do anybody know anywhere where they state that?

Cheers

I was once in that dillema.

It will be very expensive for you to do another course in the same university.

In my opinion, register with a college(Any course!), get CAS and applied. While that is going on, finish up your dissertation.

After getting the Tier 4 visa, you can later apply for PSW.

In PSW, 20 points is to be awarded to applicants for this particular category. Normally, it should be if applicant is on Tier 4 while he was studying in UK, but i read it somewhere in the policy guidance last year that it is NOT really necessary that applicant had a Tier 4 visa "Throughout" the peri...
