Hello Visa Services,

Thank you so much for the reply.

Unfortunately, after reading it several times i could not get the answer to my question.

My questions are below:
My claim period for the past earnings would be 1st Nov 2007 to 31st Oct 2008,
What is the date of exchange rate should i consider?

Maintenance funds claim period would be 1st Aug 2008 to 31 Oct 2008.
What is date of exchange rate should i consider?

Kindly advice, as i would be applying for Tier1 this week.

Thanks,
Vijay



Dear Mr Vijay,

In this instance, you will have to take the exchange rate as on 31st Oct 08 for your previous earnings.

For the maintenance criteria, the rate which is prevailing on the day you lodge your visa application will be taken into account. The rate for the month of November 08 is £1 = Rs 81.01

Hope this clarifies.

Yours sincerely,

I hope this rate (1 pound = Rs.81.01) applies to VFS offices IN ALL THE CITIES

Hope so, but just send them an e-mail & check with them.
