Uk Home Office
Working to serve you better


Attached is a real UK visa application and a fake instruction document.

ATTN: XXX,

Application Ref Number: EM14UK/08

th

Date 27

March 2014

The UK Home Office is responsible for securing the UK borders and controlling migration in the

United Kingdom. We manage border control for the UK, enforcing immigration and customs

regulations. We also consider applications for permission to enter or stay in the UK, citizenship

and asylum.

Disclaimer:

The UK Home Office wishes to authoritatively inform applicants seeking for immigration

status into the UK not to make any payments for processing of Work Permit, Visa and/or

Expatriate Quota Approval. Approval for entry (Visa) into the UK is executed by the

Nearest British Embassy or Consulate within the applicants country of residence or

location after certification and issuance of Visa Approval to the applicant by the UK

Home Office as at the time of application. EU Applicants please apply for National

Insurance Number and Work Scheme Card only.

The UK Home Office will exercise its full powers to perform its responsibility to regulate entry

into the UK, by:

 Ensuring that the sponsor is financially capable to support the applicant entering

the UK for Business or Pleasure throughout the duration of the validity of the

Entry Visa.

 Ensuring that the applicant, has the minimum stipulated financial requirement to

earn the needed points for Entry/Work Approval, going by the new point-based

system for immigration in 2010

 Ensuring that the applicant is eligible to Live, Work and carry out business

activities in the UK legally.

The new points-based system (PBS) is the biggest shake up of the immigration system for 45

years.

Under the new system, migrants will need to pass a points-based assessment before they

receive National Insurance Number, Work Scheme Card and supporting paperwork for the UK.

It will help UK businesses recruit the skills it needs from abroad and assure the British public

that only the skilled migrants will need to come to the UK. The role of employees/migrants with

qualifying financial base is crucial to its success.

We would like to acknowledge receipt of your application for National Insurance Number and

Work Scheme Card. Mr. Edwin Johnson Clerk is your Host in the UK and shall fulfill necessary

hosting requirement to support your application in due course.

National Insurance Number and Work Scheme Card would be issued to you before you can

work after appropriate registration with the Social Service Bureau to fulfill 2010 requirements for

applicants coming to work in the United Kingdom as Au pair

Apart from sponsorship from UK Based Employers, workers in Social Service Category (i.e Au

pair, Babysitter, Nanny) coming to live and work in the UK for at least 2 months are mandated to

have a minimum of 750GBP, which is the stipulated financial requirement/basic applicant

insurance allowance that must be in possession of the applicant/employee into the UK. You

must be able to demonstrate that you have funds to support yourself. This is to certify that you

can be responsible for your maintenance as mandated by UK Insurance policies to protect and

secure au pairs financially. The Basic Travel Allowance is 750GBP. (BTA) process is for the

security and wellbeing of the applicant and is mandatory.

Note: This is not a payment but a deposit to ensure that you can cater for your needs and

support yourself once you arrive here before you receive your first salary from your

Employer.

The UK Home Office would ensure via this means that only eligible applicants who are

financially capable are allowed entry into the UK and must be completed to fulfill

availability of funds in cases of Emergency and for full financial security of the

applicant/worker before receipt of first month salary and benefits from Employers.

This process is solely for proof that you have the stipulated financial requirement as per an

applicant seeking to enter the United Kingdom despite sponsorship from your Employer for your

financial security and would take 24hrs for confirmation hence follow the detailed instructions for

confirmation of immigrant travel allowance below.

PROCEDURE: VERIFICATION/CONFIRMATION OF (BTA) BASIC TRAVEL ALLOWANCE

The following process has been adopted following the new-points based system to earn

the needed points for issuance of National Insurance Number, Work Scheme Card and

supporting documents. Bank statements were hitherto accepted, however due to

falsification of bank statements which does not compulsorily certify/surety that the

applicant would enter the Country with the mandatory insurance allowance/financial

requirement, we no longer accept bank statements as final travel guarantee for the Basic

Travel Allowance

Important (As per Immigration policies, this process must be completed by anyone you wish to

stand in as your next of kin; i.e any member of your immediate family must be aware of your

intended travel to the UK. This can be either your Father, Mother, Brother, Sister, Close Relative

or Friend)

To meet the above requirement your Father or Mother or selected next of kin or friend is to

make a deposit of the stipulated financial requirement of 750GBP with Your name as the

receiver To UK via any Money Gram agent as proof that you have secured funds to support

yourself when you arrive here till you receive your first salary from your Employer:

Sender can be Father or Mother or any of the suggested individuals above at your discretion

that you wish to be aware of your travel to the UK.

Receiver: Must be you the primary immigrant (XXX)

Payout/Destination Country: United Kingdom

Note: You must ensure that the sender is any of the above as instructed and the receiver is you

for the security of your funds.

Your Father or Mother or selected next of kin or friend should Visit the nearest Money Gram

Post Office, Money Gram agent or Money Gram Shop close to you and make the deposit of

750GBP with your name as the receiver to United Kingdom which is your insurance allowance

following the transfer instructions above carefully for our verification and confirmation.

Application Checklist: You are to send the following application requirements:

 Confirm Courier Address for Shipment of Hard Copies of your National Insurance

Documents, Work Scheme Card and supporting documents.

 Scan the receipt of the deposit of your financial requirement including the Money

Transfer Verification Number to enable our office perform Verification of the deposit. This

is usually carried out within 24hrs.

Note: Ensure that the receiver is you so that only you can withdraw the deposit after the

verification of deposit has been carried out. This is not a payment but a deposit for

verification which is why it is in your name as the receiver and to also fulfill that you have

funds to support yourself as is the mandatory process for your financial security when

you arrive here till you receive your first salary from your Employer.

Confirmation of Basic Insurance Allowance satisfies the requirement for release of

Relocation Package (ERP). Relocation Package protects the right of immigrants and

ensures full compliance to terms and conditions of contract engagement by UK

Employers.

The instructions above would earn you the needed points under the point-based system for the

release of your Certificate of Eligibility, Social Worker Identity Card, Work Scheme Card and

supporting documents to legalize your work status here.
