Immigrate to the UK

[SHAMAL]

After getting frustrated with the GC process (EB1 India) with no end in sight, I am seriously considering the UK for immigration. If you qualify for HSMP and get a job - stay there for 4 years pay taxes and get your UK GC. After one more year you can apply for citizenship. And, there is no retrogression in UK!

After all they enjoyed our country for 200 years, it is our turn now.

how come you are frustrated with GC process being EB1??....from what i know EB1 got retrogressed just this month??....and before this 80% of people used to complete the whole process in 2 years...

infact for EB1 there is much more hopes than for any other category...i am expecting things to move quickly for EB1 and it will still take 3 years to get GC(it takes 45-90 days for I-140, rest for I-485)

Dont give up hope

SHAMAL,

Dont give up hope that easily. Since your EB1, your case will go thru quicker than most folks here.
Overall the US systems is better than the UK system. They are more accepting of us here than in UK.
I dont know how the economy will hold up here . Over the long run it may be better in Europe due to EU.

Hsmp

HSMP is certainly the best way to permanent residency in the UK although requires agents in most cases.

The current waiting time is in excess of 12 weeks but can be considerably quicker if well presented
