Tier 1 extension with different qualification

Post by kunjandesai12 » Fri Nov 16, 2012 3:08 pm

Hi,

I am on Tier 1 ( General) visa granted in 10 Feb, 2010. My extension is due soon. I have question about qualification. When I have apply initially I have claim points for my M.Sc. and now I have PhD degree. I would like to know whether I can claim points for my new qualification.

Thanks

Yes as long as Phd degree appear in the pbs calculator.

I myself applied initially with bachelor degree and done my extension using my master's.

Thanks you very much. Your reply relieved me a bit.

Did you apply directly in person or by Post? Was that through consultant or by yourself.

Your reply is really appreciated.

Thanks Param.

Sorry for asking too much.

Did you manage to claim points for Masters?

Did caseworker have any query about your degree?

Thanks
