We wish to inform you that we received information from
the Home Office of B.H.C (British High Commission) Head Quarter today that a new policy has been put into force to regulate genuine working applicants coming into the UK. Thus Applicant(s) applying as an Employee to United Kingdom must deposit a Total sum of 2 000 pounds to the Home Office of the BHC (British High Commission) Head Quarter here in United Kingdom. This is mandatory for anyone coming to work or study in the UK.
We have been able to make more inquiries on how to get this policy for all EU citizen and non-EU citizens coming to work in the United Kingdom and here are some of the informations given to us.


An inquiry about deposits for all Aupair was made by EXCELLENT TRAVEL from the BHC (British High Commission) head quarters that a policy as been made for any applicants who is an EU citizen or other countries that are applying as an Aupair to United Kingdom or even to study and also work must deposit the exact amount of 2 000 pounds per head to the BHC (British High Commission) head quarter here in United Kingdom.

Firstly any EU citizen or other countries that are applying as an Aupair or even Nanny to United Kingdom must deposit the exact amount of 2000 pounds to the BHC (British High Commission) head quarters here in United Kingdom.

Secondly this deposit is refundable after you get into United Kingdom in your host family house then you must report with your employer to the nearest BHC in the UK to get your money back immediately or soon
Thirdly this policy was made to check and control genuine applicants coming to the UK as many applicants (Aupair nanny or anyone who wants to study) come to United Kingdom to work but most of them never report to their host family or even to their school of study but they rather prefer to be at large and never contact the host family or the school again.


Please note that this money 2 000 pounds is totally refundable and
is just to show that you are truly coming to the UK to work and not to absc=
ond after getting your Visa and as soon asyou get to UK at the host family residence all you have to do is to report to the UK embassy with your employer to get back your 2 000 pounds Hope this is clearly understood.

The immigration will ask about this from you and also an invoice at the airport or all other security places and if you dont show one they will have to send you back to your country immediately so it is better to deposit the 2 000 pounds so that you won't have problem with the immigration at the airport when landing and also so that we can finanlise your working registrations .
So we urge you to inform your host family about this and we shall also inform them too we wait for your positive response. The deposit must be send to us or your host family to register for you so that we can forward it to the Home Office of BHC Head Quarter Here in United Kingdom.
Thanks for your co-operation and understanding
In anticipation of your response.


Many Thanks
