Effective nov 7th 2006 Home office has totally revamped
the criteria for HSMP. They have removed the "Work
Experience" criteria which was a "bete noir"
for quite a few people. Also, stand deleted are the
"Acheivement / Spouse Acheivement criteria. Under
the new criteria, the younger you are the more points
you score and the threshold for scoring points in the
age segment has been raised to 31 years. Points are
also awarded to much lower salaries, ranging from 5
points to 45 points in the Earnings segment. The MBA
criteria from designated universities stands unchanged.
A brand new segment "UK EXPERIENCE" has been
introduced and allows you to score a maximum of 5 points,
if you have graduated from a British university or
have been earning in the U.K. High Emphasis on English
Proficiency Instituted. The qualifying points have been
raised to 75.
The Home Office proposes to be very specific and stringent
of the documentary evidence that is required for a successful
application, under the new HSMP Programme. Based on
this fact, we firmly believe such applications will
have to be most diligently prepared and comprehensive
attention to detail in respect of the necessary evidence
is now increasingly essential if a positive
outcome is to be achieved. Our extensive experience
in preparing and submitting HSMP applications, and our
very successful track record this far, stands us in
good stead to continue to be your advisors under the
new scheme too.
If you are interested in making an HSMP application
and are looking for professional representation in this
regard please contact Raji Govindaraj at 91-98841-55605
