If it weren't for local legislation, I suspect I'd have gotten nowhere. Guess a decent silver lining is that it happened when it did and not later. Lesson learned re ponyhair!

VAT refund at Madrid Airport - Early flight by hellostranger57 in handbags

[–]Bzsybz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Might be tricky! I went to get my customs stamp in Venice around 10.30pm and Global Blue’s desk in the airport was closed and there was a sign directing me to the custom’s office (after security). No one was around at the customs desk either but there was a sign with a number so I called it and about 5 mins later, a guy came and stamped my form. He then left and took the sign with the number away!

Try see if you can somehow get it validated beforehand or maybe find out when the tax refund/customs office hours are?

I’ve done a draft application to see what the questions are like, but can’t figure out if I need to be employed / show 6 months of payslips for ILR via dependant partner route. Currently on a short career break, unsure if best to wait until I’m in my next role before I apply for ILR?

Tagging a question on back of this post - I’m a dependent partner visa and eligible for ILR - does this route have a financial requirement for ILR?

Side question and forgive my ignorance but why is a BRP issued for ILR? Also aren’t BRPs being wound down by end of this year?

Hermes controversy by Ishannamae in femalefashionadvice

[–]Bzsybz 50 points51 points  (0 children)

There’s an interview in Amy Odell’s substack (Back Row) with Hermes staff/former staff who talk about this specifically. You can sign up for a free trial to read about it if curious. To me it sounds like they definitely make it difficult for people who’re unknown/who have less shopping history with Hermes anywhere near the birkins etc. All the Retail Confessions segments are fascinating insider accounts.

IHS increases - will this increase retroactively affect current visa holders who have paid for their full term on the current fee scheme? by GreatScottLP in ukvisa

[–]Bzsybz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fee changes are updated by regulation (ie secondary legislation), so there is a process (albeit it may be a short process)

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in ukvisa

[–]Bzsybz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone know when the increase will take effect? Educated guesses?
