July 2018 restricted COS

[tulsi]

Hi Guys,

I am waiting for my CoS allotment in July Panel, my status is "Under Review" till July 20, 2018 @ 10 AM today. Please let me know anyone has rejection till now ?

[Kat259]

The secondary school teacher again. I posted yesterday about my questions. We heard today I’ve been rejected, however, they told us to apply again. Is that a good sign?

I am non-SOL, non-NHS and was sitting at 29 points.

With the redo I am now at 30 points as they have upped my salary and have also redone the RLMT. I’m so much more optimistic reading through people’s posts. We can do this everyone!

Thank you for letting us know. So many of us know exactly what it feels like to get that rejection email. I think you are coming in at a good time in the process with the changes and should not have a long wait like some.
Absolutely apply for next month! You should still be good for when school starts if the points drop that low in August! Good luck!

Thanks so much. We feel so much more optimistic!

Yea I too i'm hopeful that it clears the 40K mark. I am just not sure how they decide amongst the applicants with the same points? does it depend on how many months they've applied or does everyone get put back in the same pot and someone randomly selected.

This is my second month applying so less hopeful that I would go through over people applying for 4-5 months.

You don't have to worry about that. A whole points band gets cleared or not at all. This means that, except of course for exceptional approvals, if one 41 gets cleared they all get cleared. It's all or nothing.

So when it gets to 40, it will be all the 40's

Hope that helps allay the doubts:)

That is really handy to know. Thanks for clarifying, lets hope this drops to 40 today. I can't bare the thought of thinking about this all weekend. Just one more band!!! COME ON YOU CAN DO IT!

I've still got my fingers crossed for those in the 40 points band, may you all get news that makes our weekend a little bit lighter

There would be lot of applications on 40. June itself had 114 applications and that makes it a bit tricky for 40 to go through in first month. I am waiting on 40 and if it goes through today, weekend will be fireworks.

[rcos_1]

Did anyone started receiving refusal/rejected for their rcos application (Non SOL,Non NHS,No PHD)
who fall between 30-40 points?

I am having 30 points with the above criteria and my application is still under review
Your replies will be highly appreciated.

Hey Moderator, you yourself are Immigration Consultant. Would be useful if you would tell us if any of your clients went through with 40 points or below? or with any of your Immigration Consultant friends?

No I am not an immigration consultant so do not have clients and no immigration consultant 'friends' either. Even if I was one, the forum rules forbid me from advertising or stating the fact that I am one.

We are all volunteers here, offering advice from our own respective experiences.

Got the news from employer just few mins back that my COS was granted.. After getting the offer letter in november 2016, waiting since then to get my tier 2 ICT 12 months cooling off period to be over just to land in december 2017 to know that cut off hit 56 points for the first time ever. From then on it has been this wonderful forum and you guys who have been my only support to keep my hopes alive in the past 7 months.

For people wondering why I wasn't through in April, back then I had only 40 points and tried in May with 45 points after salary hike and then again had to get new RLMT for 50 points in June and finally got the RCOS now in July. Lucky to have such an employer who had the patience for all through these 1.5 years.

For ppl who are still waiting, all the very best. Really positive thing this month is that refusals and rejections are yet to come with cut off points already hitting 41 points till now. Definitely all will get it in next few months.

I know I can now change my name to tier2VisaChaser

Suppose we can take no news as good news!

Hopefully we get the results we want on my Monday.

Try not to think about it all weekend

I don't really understand what you meant, but did you mean that the salary you are offered is lower than the advertisement in RLMT? if yes, then I suggest you need to get it sorted with your employer since you RCOS will be rejected. I had this situation before. Let's say if your current salary is 30k and the salary in RLMT is 45k-60k, then your rCoS will be rejected. but if your salary is higher (i.e 70k while the salary in RLMT is 45k - 60k) i am not really sure about that. However, salary information is part of RLMT requirements, so it is better to get it sorted.

Anyway, this is not RLMT post, so let's just open your own topic about RLMT.

Still waiting for my approval and I know there are many people like me who patiently waits..my best wishes
Congratulations to all who got it.

My friend can I say my story is exactly the same .

I was hired in Birmingham in October 2016 had to come back to do the cooling off then one month for RMKT. got stuck in the 56 point December month and till now then hired in London and got through this month .

There were times when I thought I will take ICT long term route in fact I was almost on the brink of applying to for ICT COS and I said no Right at the last moment I am thankful to have employee was patient just like me and I'm also glad it all worked out after waiting for one year eight months.

Learnt that patience is the key

Thanks a lot man. My RLMT should end aug 9 and hopefully I get a better role as AM it will worth all the wait, only good things here is points have dropped even if I apply in September with 42-45 points it should go through I believe. Am too waiting from February.
