Do You Have Hsmp?

i would like to meet people with HSMP and get some informations from them.
1.how do you see the new rules
2.are your children here,
e.t.c

fourth year? that means you would get your indefinite leave soon abi?

before you can renew your visa, you must be earning some awful amount of money like £40000 per annum

so that means after the three years, you are getting your indefinete leave

its like this
after the first one year, they give you three years. then after three years, one year extra because new applicants were given four years. so there will be an extra year renewal after which you apply for indefinete. but there are strings attached to it. you have to qualify by your income, which should be above 25000pounds or so. then your age counts, if you are old, its a minor

HSMP is  changing to a points based system, that's all.

Earning requirement - this is now points based. The more you have earned previously, the more points you get. It doesn't mean that you can't apply if you haven't earned the minimum. You certainly don't have to be earning £40,000 or even £25,000. The amounts for each level of point awards depends on the country worked in. For the UK, you'll get 5 points if you earned £16,000. You'll get more points if you earned more than that.

Again, younger people get more points than older people.

How successful you are will depend on how many points you get overall. You might do poorly in one area but still get a lot of points in total.

Anyone applying for ILR now has to satisfy English language requirements and the 'Life in the UK' test (previously only required of people requesting citizenship). HEre is the Home Office info on it: http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk/aboutus/newsarchive/citizenknowledge

funny!!!!

omomoller - you can't work on a visitors visa. Even if you managed to get a cleaning job without proper papers, you won't earn enough to live here and save up money.

hi, did you appeal for yours or you just got it straight.

good. . just asking, I'm a dependant already above 18. will be seeking extension by 2009.

Anusule,
You are a dependant over 18? Just like my daughter who just turned 18. Because of the unjust law, she has to pay £950 when we apply for indefinite leave. If this had happened last year before she turned 18, she would have been included on my application with one single fees. As things stand now, she has to make her own application with my supporting documents.
Furthermore, she is paying the £950 application fees.
