When to enter UK?

I got my HSMP approval on Dec 29th 2006 as an IN COUNTRY applicant.

Later on I travelled to India.

I am going to apply for my EC from India(Hyderabad) in June 1st week. ( as my HSMP approval expires on June 29th 2007)

Assuming I get my EC say on June 15th 2007.

Is there a time bound limit before which I travel to UK atleast once and failure to do so will make my visa(EC) cancelled.

I have heard that within 6 months I am supposed to travel to UK once to get the entry stamp in passport?

Or I have the liberty to travel even after 1 year of my EC date in passport.

Kindly share your experiences!!

Sudhir,

You can enter in UK any time as long as your VISa(EC) is valid...
So answer to your Q. is, any time during next 2 years..But remember if you need to go for FLR , you need to come to UK at least 12 months before your EC expires..
