UK applicants from Ambala
Ambala is the Haryana city closest to the desk and its UK applicants are army families from the cantonment, the scientific-instrument traders of Ambala City and students from the colleges along the Chandigarh road. Business visitor files from the instrument trade succeed on the export record and the UK buyer's invitation; family visits from cantonment households succeed on the pension and service records that show a settled life. Ambala students are refused on English more than on funds, and an IELTS for UKVI sitting in Chandigarh before the CAS is the usual advice.
