Help - Leave to Remain Letter

Post by isaac2k2 » Mon Jun 03, 2013 9:43 pm

Hi

I am in real need of someone's help regarding my Leave to Remain letter. When I renewed my HSMP visa in 2010, it was first rejected and when i appealed through a lawyer it was granted.

The lawyer then gave me the envelop with the approval letter from Home Office but while arranging my documents in prep for my ILR, I noticed that my HSMP letter came in colored paper but my Leave to remain came in Home Office letter headed paper but in black and white with a hand signed signature and not photocopy.

So I am a bit worried if the letter should have come in colored paper or just black and white like it was printed out and signed.

Do I need to contact home office and ask about this?

Please for those that had their Leave to Remain approved via a lawyer after it was first refused, can you confirm if the approval letter sent was black and white or colored. I have just called Home office and they guy says if the letter was signed and not photocopied then it should be OK but i am not convinced.

If the signature is not photocopy then the document is considered original. If you don't want to be convinced and stress yourself, how can anyone help you. Chill out man.
