Sorry to hear this.

Are you 100% sure if it is a refusal? Was it mentioned that your application didn't meet the cut off for this month or something else as rejection?

Can you please check and confirm.
Sorry to hear that my fried 😔
But yes if we can get more details on refusal reason?

45k salary have 45 points or 46,000 salary have 45 points? any idea?

Today there is hell lot of news in all the news papers about current policy and most of the news papers are quoting to exempt shortage occupation and phd from tier 2 limits. I hope that to happen in this month, that will help all the people waiting to get through by july atleast🙏🏻. I know it is difficult but a ray of hope🙏🏻
Anything >=45k but <50k =45pts
So with 38k salary, my points will be 38?

If possible, could we get some clarity on the status so far?

We’ve had conflicting information about 45/50/55 and it’s really causing havoc.

For me personally, with 39 points since December, my employer indicated that they might not apply again. Naturally hearing something like this causes an immense amount of stress and anxiety.

If the 45 point band could be cleared this month, at least I could try and convince them to try one more time... if not the last 6 months of anxiety, hopes and stress was all for nothing.

If we have refusals / rejections, please make sure you state points with refusal or rejection and if it’s a rejection, please say why.

Getting news is better than not getting news but it needs to be credible first hand news I think.

Just received as expected refused RCOS with 36pts. I am told by my HR that the cut off is 55 this month so far.
Good luck everyone. Hope for something better next month may be.

If we consider the latest news from guys the cut off is at least 55+ which again makes thing a lot harder. If I had known this is so much hard I would accept offer at another country. As a new graduate I am making %50 more than the graduates in same job in the city I will relocate yet they try to prevent me entering because i am not skilled. If the conditions are this harsh in post brexit UK will lack skills. Then we will be offered same jobs with double amount of salary.

Same.

If 50 points are also rejected though then that's bad because I was going to ask my guys to raise my salary to 50 to have guaranteed success next month.....now I can't convince them of that lol

Does anyone know if cut offs and rejections or acceptances are industry specific?
or is it common with all professions?

Thank you drtj2018
I think that they have prioritised NHS workers- so doctors etc. Hence some will get COS at 45 points and others will get rejection at 50 points due to Non-NHS roles. :( :( :(

As a doctor, with all his call allowances it is possible that his gross salary came to more than 50k and that would have put him at 50 points not 45.

I am with 44 points...still haven't heard anything.

Been waiting since january. Dont know if these things are ever going to improve. The good part is that more and more media is now covering this situation. Hope Mrs. Theresa May realises and does something about this. The government needs to understand that these jobs are not being made to outsiders because they are cheap labour but because the vacancies require a certain qualifications, which if not met by locals are being offered to outsiders. UK cannot exist on its own, cannot sustain on its own. No country in this world can. Everyone is dependant on others for food, oil, clothes. Living in isolation is not possible. Just so distressing to see all this.

Is there anyone on here with 45 points and working for NHS/medical field? Please confirm if you have any news.
