Dear Sir,

[font='Times New Roman', ', serif} ']This is to inform you that I am holding a Tier 1 general which is due for renewal by 30th April 2013.[/font]

[font='Times New Roman', ', serif} ']I was employed in UK from 2009 to 2011 April. Then my employer had transferred me to India location (with salary in INR and so was not paying tax in UK). I had to leave UK that time as I was unable to find any suitable job that time to run my family.[/font]

[font=times new roman', 'new york', times, serif][font=Times New Roman', serif]Now, I have got a permanent job offer in UK, which is starting in UK from January 2013 and I will be applying for my Visa renewal after March 2013.[/font][/font]

[font='Times New Roman', ', serif} ']My query is - A. If I meet the points even then do you see any problem in my visa extension [/font]as I was out of UK for 1 yr 8 month[font='Times New Roman', ', serif} ']s?[/font]

[font='Times New Roman', ', serif} ']                     B. I am also doing [/font]freelancing / consulting for UK companies from November 2012 from India [font='Times New Roman', ', serif} ']only to make up my UK earning. I hope I can show this as    ````````````````my UK earning during filling the PBS form?[/font]


[font='Times New Roman', ', serif} ']Thanks for your help and suggestion[/font]

If you meet the points that is all that matters.

Thanks for the reply Victoria. Can you please elaborate the  'meet the points'?  As I have had suggestion from one of the caseworkers that even if you meet points there are something in hand of the caseworkers. They can ask you why the Tier 1 was not utilized as a whole.
I know this sound weird but that is what I have got a feeling off.  Specially when they see that I have not paid UK tax for so long time!

Your advise is highly appreciated.

If you want further advice on this I suggest emailing to arrange a consultation.

I am very surprised that you have had a 'suggestion from one of the caseworkers' as it is not possible to speak to them and they do not give advice.

Hi Victoria,

Will do. Ys - that 'not possible' thingies are happening now a days.

Cheers!
