My question is it legal? Officially, IOs have the authority and discretion to decide which applications are approved and on what basis, so, yes, it's 'legal' even though some applications may not meet normal requirements.

'well off' ... uses agent to avoid hassles & wasted time, and yet, takes a bus to Patts ... ???? You're conflating frugality with being a skinflint. Not to worry, the less well-off tend to do it all the time. Edited January 11, 2023 by NanLaew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
