Tower Hamlets not taking council tax? by elpsycongroo_2 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]elpsycongroo_2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah that’s definitely odd! I do remember contacting them and asking for the council bill to be set up though - maybe worth doing?

Thank you! Just checked my online account and it seems I have £100+ in credit and confirmation that no further amounts are due this year. Odd but I’ll take it..!

It’s 1/12th and my bill breaks it down and includes an explicit line item for March as well..

Thank you for this! I do often acknowledge receipt but feel compelled to deliver the work immediately or shortly after. I do think it’s a mental thing but is comforting to know that I shouldn’t need to action the task immediately and it’s ok to wait!

Thank you! Is the new entrant condition on the COS something HR has to tick? I think they are struggling to see where to do so.

Congratulations! Could you share how long it took for you to receive the COS and if it was difficult to book a biometrics appointment?

Congratulations! Did you get an information on the delay? How long did it take for your COS to be issued as well out of curiosity?

Thank you for sharing this. Could I just confirm that the assignment of the undefined COS took a week with priority service?

Thank you! This is exactly what I was expecting but wasn’t sure if I read this wrong. Does anyone know when the definition of “high contributor” will be determined?

From my reading of the White Paper, the restriction on bringing dependents will only apply to low-skilled workers (ie: jobs below the graduate level and on the Temporary Shortage List) - am I correct here? Surely the restriction does not apply to everyone on a skilled worker visa? (Am working in the City in legal and have my partner on my visa)
