Guidance issued for those who were accepted under the HSMP before 7 November 2006

Date: 14th August 2008

As the result of a recent court case, guidance has been issued by the UK Border Agency on how it will deal with applications from individuals who received an HSMP approval letter issued under the requirements in place before 7 November 2006. These people may now be able to apply to extend their stay in the UK based on the old HSMP criteria. The HSMP scheme was suspended from 7 November 2006 and later revised but has now been replaced with Tier 1 of the Points Based System.
