Documents later - still confused

[1400 Years]

The FAQs on the HSMP web site states that: "You may send in additional
documents provided they reach the HSMP team before a decision has been considered."

A.
When I send in my part-application in advance, can I request in the
cover letter that:

1. while the fee may be cleared at the bank and an HSMP number may be
alloted to me,

2. consideration of my case be inititated only after they receive my IELTS score?

In that way, I could ensure that a decision on my case may be made
only after they receive my remaining document.

Would the afore-mentioned request work?


B.
I don't understand the following from the FAQs:

"Please send any clearly identifiable additional documents directly to
the HSMP Team in Sheffield.

By post:
HSMP Team
Home Office
PO Box 3468
Sheffield
S3 8WA

By courier:
WP (UK) HSMP Team
Home Office
Moorfoot
Sheffield
S1 4PQ"

What is the difference between courier and post? Aren't both the same
with the exception that courier is faster and track-able by the hour?

Why are you having an issue with the different addresses. If that is the way they organize themselves, then that is the way they organize themselves. As for you Ielts score, if you feel it necessary to submit your application before you receive the score, then simply state the Ielts score will be provided by this date. I think they would get the implication of such a statement. You really can't tell them to not begin accessing an application until a certain date or you shouldn't have submitted it.

I wish to apply for the HSMP again. Previously my application was refused because I provided inappropriate proof of my English Language ability. I am going to do the IELTS on August 16. I will receive the result on August 29.

I had previously applied for the HSMP on the basis of student-status; my student status, I believe, would expire by September 4.

If I send my application by August 29, it should reach Sheffield by September 4 all right, but I might get time barred because Sheffield would only initiate consideration of my application once my application fee gets cleared.

The question is: What if I sent my documents and payment now with a letter requesting that while the payment may be cleared at the banks, my application may only be reviewed as soon as they receive my IELTS – which they would by September 4.

Would this work?

Or would they say that as soon as the HSMP number is allocated, they cannot but help themselves with initiating the assessment on the basis of the documents that they have received?

Regards.

you can do that. i think there's a column in the form that you can state what documents are outstanding and also for u to state when you will make it available to the Home Office.

Thanks for your reply, makon.

Where exactly is that column? Can't spot it.
