very urg HSMP to Tier1 Visa renewed between Apr 09 - Mar 10

Hi All,

I have just found a horrible and frustrating thing on the home office guidance note as why my bachelor degree not awarding me any point.

As i have already extended to Tier1 General from HSMP (2+3), and i need further leave to remain to to complete my requirement for ILR as i am short of 2 months, and now if i apply for FLR, according to the guidance note, they would see under which rule i had submitted my application for Tier 1.

In my case, i got my HSMP using Bachelor degree and extended to Tier1 using my Bachelor Degree under the HSMP old rules, but now as I got approved on May 2009, they will follow that rule inplace between 2009-2010 for further extension. And At that time, master's degree rule was in place. Therefore now, i am not able to apply for further leave to remain, as my tier1 awarding date fall between 2009-2010.

Ideally they should follow the same rule for HSMP in our further extensions application. It is really unfair and i do not know what should i do. Though i have visa left till sep 2012.

But any expereince, moderator can put their comment would help.
Please if any one else has the same case, What is the best way to put forward our case.?

Regards,
