Cheers,

Congratulations.
Thanks for the Excellent Review.
Was your entry clearance before 6-Apr-2010 or after?

Hi Fusion,

Sorry about the late reply.

Yes I can in August 2009.

Regards..

Thank you very much for the reply.
It is very good you have got extension for 3 years.
Mine was also entry clearance in 2009, but I came to the UK in 2011. I am going for 2nd extension in July-2014. I need extension for 3 years to be eligible for ILR. Though guide lines doc says only 2 year extension. I think period of extension depends on the case worker.


Point 44 in the guidance doc
Periods of grant:
Leave to Remain (Extension) where previous
grant of leave was as a Tier 1 (General)
Migrant under the Rules in place before the 06
April 2010 -- For a period of 2 years

Leave to Remain in all other cases -- For a period of 3 years

Hi

Can anyone advise if ICICI NRI account bank statements can be used as Maintenance funds proofs.

I am running short of few days of maintaining £ 945 for 90 days for my 2nd Tier 1 General Extension.

Thanks
