EC processed from Chennai for MArch 13

Post by cottongear » Fri Apr 11, 2008 3:03 am

Just came to know that one person who had applied on the same day as mine on 13th March from Bangalore VFS has got the EC.

Wondering why I have not got it yet :(
He had prior UK travel experience, so that might be the reason for relatively faster processing ? (!!)

Applying for EC

Post by satheeshkumar » Thu Apr 17, 2008 7:47 am

Hi
I have some doubts reg. EC application process...

I have got my hsmp approval and wish to apply for ec now.

1. Do i need to provide tax returns for last 2 years? I am not sure whether i have that for the year 2005-06. Would it be an issue?

2. With that integra check, will they call out HR people and tell that its regarding visa process? (In case i cant reveal the info to my manager at the moment) would that cause some problems?

3. Do we have to provide originals & copies of all degree certificates, marksheets of UG & PG course, copies of all application forms (why this?)?

4. Do we have to give a copy of the driving license?

5. Did you apply for a post dated visa & if so for how many months? Within what time from the EC approved visa date, do we have to go to UK to be safe?

6. Did you get a job offer so that you attached that info alongwith the application, or you just attached some responses from the job consultants?

Whats your opinion on this?

7. Did you provide any EPF statements from your HR? if so, how to ask for the same, like do we have to mention any reasons for this?

8. Do we have to give last 3 months salary slips & bank statements (along with those we submitted for hsmp approval)? again do we have to get it attested as done earlier? What kind of reasons we can give our HR for this?

Wish you good luck
