Hi
I applied for tier1 extension application as dependant and received permit today with restricted work status whereas my last grant of leave was without restriction and I was actually working as dr in training then and now. I send my trust letter and all other required docs this time, wht shall I do now???need urgent help

when did you and the primary tier1 holder receive your first T1 & Dependant visa/leaves?

March 2011 , we got first tier 1

The rules were changed in 2008 and since then Tier 1 applicants / dependants are not allowed to work as a doctor in training posts.

was the restriction endorsed on primary T1 holders initial entry clearance?

no, there was no restriction imposed on my primary tier 1 dependant visa given in march 2011,and hence i was working in training post since then.

correct me if i am wrong,these restrictions were for new applications after 2008 or for those who had already restricted work stamp on primary visa,besides , i am dependant not main applicant........

for new applicants since April 2008 - initially it was for Indians and then later rolled out all NON EU from the summer of 2008.

was the restriction endorsed on main applicant's initial T1 visa in 2011? or none of you had the restriction?

Main applicant had it but I ( dependant) didn't have it.

I have seen cases where the restriction was not endorsed on the dependant visa but as per 319D(b)(iii)the restriction is applicable to the dependants.

Thanks for the reply. Just to clarify, 319D(b)(iii) is for dentists and 319D(b)(ii) is for doctors. And it clearly states that if someone didn't have the restriction on the previous visa and is currently working in a training post then they will be exempted from this restriction. any comments?

319D(b)(iii) refers to both doctors and dentists.

319D(b)(ii) refers to police registration

(b) Entry clearance and leave to remain under this route will be subject to the following conditions:

(i) no recourse to public funds,

(ii) registration with the police, if this is required under paragraph 326 of these Rules,

(iii) no Employment as a Doctor or Dentist in Training, unless the applicant:

I agree you can point out that there was no endorsement on your initial Entry Clearance, however

319D. (a) (i) / ((b) is applicable for both Entry Clerance and Leave to Remain - unless you satisfy any other exemption conditions, the initial EC should have had the restrictions. Why it was not endorsed that I can't say!

319D(b)(iii) (2) is applicable to doctors. The reason I didnt get the restriction on my previous visa was because I was in training post at that time as well, therefore, I applied for the exemption. My first dependant was given in 2007 and at that time there was no restriction on dependant visa. Since then I have always been part of the training programme and therefore I have been exempted from the training post restriction.

ah! So point out the error to UKBA and get your endorsement removed.
You had done that in that past and once applied for exemption.
