2nd Step--Getting a Visa

Post by languephone » Mon Sep 25, 2006 2:03 am

I was recently approved for the HSMP, but I am now very confused about getting a Visa. I am a US citizen currently living in the US. Do I fill out Visa form VAF1? If so, does having an approved HSMP letter mean that I have a Work Permit? If so, is the work permit number listed on the approval letter? The Visa application seems to require that I detail my employment plans, but I don't have a job in the UK yet--that was the whole point of going through the HSMP. Is there anyone who has been through the process who can help?

Thanks,

Dan

Dan, exactly this query has come up before. For example, have a look at this topic.
