You can call UK Visas in Croydon but it will be worth checking the UK visa website www.ukvisas.gov.uk to make sure that you qualify for the HSMP scheme (i.e. your qualified in the right area, are under 30 years old and can support yourself whilst you establish yourself). It will be expensive and it might be cheaper to go back to your country and apply from there. I am not sure if the new points based system has come into operation yet, if it has you can get a clear indication of whether you are likel yto succeed by going on to hte website.

The UK Highly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP) is an excellent UK immigration category for entry to the UK for successful people with sought-after skills. It is in some ways similar to the skilled migration programs for entry to Australia and Canada.\nThe latest version of the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme was announced on 7 November 2006.\nPlease note that on 07 November 2006 the Home Office announced a temporary suspension of the programme until 05 December of 2006. A Summary of UK HSMP Changes, as of 17 November, 2006 has been placed here\nYou will need to obtain a minimum of 75 points from the following 5 scoring areas:\n\n    * Points for age if you are under 32 years of age.\n    * Educational qualifications (including MBA Provision)\n    * UK degree level or professional level qualification\n    * Previous Earnings\n    * UK work experience\n\nTo find out about our professional fees, HSMP services and HSMP Application Plan call our London Office on +44 (0)20 7842 0800 for a HSMP consultation. For full details of the HSMP program see our detailed guide\n\n\nHighly Skilled Migrant Programme (HSMP) of the UK is probably the best Immigration Scheme open to Highly Skilled and Experienced Professionals, Executives & Managers, presently available from any of the developed countries. HSMP leads to Permanent Resident status for the United Kingdom in just four years.\n\n\nWhat is the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme?\n\nThe programme is designed to allow highly skilled people to migrate to the United Kingdom to look for work or self-employment opportunities. The scheme now has a new assessment for applicants aged fewer than 28 as well as an assessment for those 28 and over.\n\nThe Highly Skilled Migrant Programme is different from the work permit scheme because you do not need a specific job offer in the UK to apply.\n\nIt is different from business routes such as the Innovators scheme or other business categories like Self Employed because you do not need a detailed business plan, you do not need to create jobs and you do not need to invest in the UK.\n\n\nHow can I apply?\n\nIf you are an university graduate, we are here to help you.\nYour application will not be successful if you are in the United Kingdom as a visitor, on temporary admission, or without permission. In most cases, you can also apply from inside the UK if you are here with Home Office permission.\n\nJust join UK Companies web site or contact us.\n\n\nHow do I qualify as a highly skilled migrant?\n\nThere is a points-based immigration scheme. Points are scored in five main areas:\n• educational qualifications;\n• work experience;\n• past earnings;\n• your achievement in your chosen field; and\n• your husband's, wife's or unmarried partner's achievements.\n\nYou need to score 65 points or more to qualify as a highly skilled migrant. You can calculate your score with our HSMP Calculator but keep in mind we can advise you how to achieve a much better score.\n\nSelf-employed General Practitioners qualified to practice in the UK may also apply under the Highly Skilled Migrant Programme.\n\n\nHow long will I be allowed to stay in the United Kingdom as a highly skilled migrant?\n\nAt first, you receive permission to stay in the UK for a year to seek work or self-employment opportunities.\n\nAfter a year, you can apply to stay for longer but you must be economically active.\n\nIf at the time of application you have a genuine employment offer then you may receive permission to stay in the UK for up to four years and your application could be considered on an urgent basis\n\n\nWhy is HSMP so advantageous?\n\nYour family can come as well. Your spouse, partner and children can enjoy the same benefits as UK people including free education, free healthcare and the ability to work in the UK.\n\nAfter your initial 12 month visa period, you can apply for an extension of up to 4 years as long as you and your family have been able to support yourselves.\n\n

Go to your nearest British Embassy or Consulate and apply for a work visa, or, if your wife is already there (which I gather she is?), check her visa to see if you are allowed to come jointly. \n\nUsually, the British Consulate is pretty good about letting spouses travel and work together.

It depends on what you want to do in UK.  You can try work permit or HSMP, but those are so difficult to get.  You need a job offer that requires at least Degree/NVQ level 2/ 3 years worth of work experience to qualify for work permit.  And your income has to be in the top 10% of the country where you have been working for the last 12 months, and need have at least a degree, and your partner has a degree or/and working in the field that requires a degree for HSMP.  \nMaybe you can try to apply for unmarried partnership visa with the UK person, if you guys have been living together for at least 2 years and can prove that by letters for both of you sent to the same address.  It will give you 2 years residency, and within this 2 years, you'll be able to work full time.  After that, if you are still together, you'll be able to apply for Leave to Remain Indefinite.  \nIf you are still in America now and thinking of coming to UK, and have not lived together for long enough, then the easiest thing you can do is to be a student and come here.  Just find a school with a full time course you want to do, and enrol into it, then pay the tuition.  Get them to write a visa letter to confirm your position in the course, and go to British Embassy with the application form and other requirements, such as your sufficient bank statement to apply for the visa.  With student visa, you'll be only able to work part time (under 20 hours per week) during term time and full time during holidays.  But if you guys start living together as soon as you come to UK, after 2 years you'll be qualified for unmarried visa.\nOr, if you have a grand parent or a parent born in UK, then you should be able to get UK ancestry visa.  Just check Home Office and UK Visa's website.  Also, don't forget to contack British Embassy in America, if you are there now.\nI hope those information I gave you is helpful.   Good luck.

I guess you would have to go to the American embassy. If you were in America you would go to the English embassy, but since you're already in England...\nWhere did you get your visa, though, because that's probably where you would find a better answer.\nBut I agree with the other people who suggested to consult a lawyer.\nOr you could find other immigrants in there and ask them how they're doing everything and so.\nLucky b itch, I wish I could go to England.

If you have an H1-B visa, you can transfer the visa to another work ONLY if the work is similar to the work with which you were granted the visa\n\nI suggest you contact your immigration lawyer

Try! you are very, very welcome.  Don't listen to WOLLYwomb & Martin B.  As employers, we adore you people coming to our lovely country.  Before the Eastern Europeans arrived, employers really suffered trying to get staff. Young Brits don't really like working, or they like to be paid in cash, so it doesn't interfere with their benefit claims.  Then there was the many, many, many,many, many, sick days, normally after a binge-drinking evening.  So keep trying. WE NEED YOU!

Hi, I can answer your question?\n\n1. Yes there are two available routes for you once you have completed your MBA the HSMP or Work Permits routes.\n\nHSMP - The main advantage of this program is you could be granted a permit & visa with out a sponser (employer) however the Permit & Visa for HSMP will only be granted initially for 12 months and can then be extended for a further 3 years. HSMP is also points based and you need to score over 65 points in the following areas.\n\nQualifications, Work Experience, Salary based on your earning over the last 12 months of current/ last employment, Your Age if you are under 28 years old you would get an extra 5 points if you are, Partners Qualifications if you have one and Achievements within your field of Employment. \n\nAll documented evidence must be original also the success rate is low too in 2004 56% of applicants were rejected by the home office in the UK. However if you can prove you are a success story then this could be the way forward for you.\n\nWork Permit & Visa - This application is in 2 stages your Work Permit which is your employers responsiblilty and the original document belongs to them even if you pay the application fee. This is because the employer must sign the declaration page of the work permit form. There are several documents your employer will need to submit as well as your self which is Qualifications and work experience and the minimum requirement is 3yrs experience @ NVQ lvl 3 or above. the maximum period of a work permit is 5 years\n\n2nd part the Visa is your responsiblility and depending on your current visa which is most likely a student visa. You will need to apply for an incountry visa once the work permit has been granted. It's called a FLR-(IED) document\n\nGo to this website it has helpful info www.visaworkpermits.co.uk\n\ngood luck \n\nmgi1975

Having a legitimate visit to the UK should not affect your application for an H1B.  \nHowever, if you mean to ask if you can apply for the H1B at the US Embassy in the UK -- you'd be better advised to apply in your home country.  It is generally more difficult for applicants of any type of temporary visa to qualify when they apply outside of their own country.  The Embassy official is less familiar with the circumstances and documentation from a different country and would more likely have to deny the application if it is less certain or obvious.

Its better to consult US visa issuing authority on the  subject. But apparently it seems that both visas cant be there same time.\n As in VISIT application form there is a check-box asking 'wud you work over there'.\nHow that question be replied in 'NO', where there is H1 on the passport.\nAnd how that can be 'Yes', when you are applying for VISIT Visa.

You generally have to get sponsorship from the company that you will be working for.  Visas are usually given for 1 year but can be longer.  You can travel there without a visa and be allowed to stay for 3 months.  During that time you are not allowed to be employed.  The link will take you to the website for the application process for all types of visas for the UK.
