An applicant can vary an application at any time before a decision is made on it. They can do this if they want to be considered for a grant of leave on a different basis to their initial application.
If the applicant wishes to vary their leave for a purpose where a specified application form is required, they must complete the new form and meet all the requirements of paragraph 34A of the Immigration Rules and the Immigration (Health Charge) Order 2015, for the variation to be valid.
A person who varies their application does not have to pay an additional fee unless the new ground they want to be considered under has a higher fee than their original application. In this case, they must pay the difference between the original fee and the new higher fee.

what's the process of vary the application
i have try to read notes guidance but its really confusing someone have wrote i have to email them and until i didn't get confirmation letter i can't vary application and other says i have to write letter in post along with application, but in my circumstances i m going to premium service for ILR LR i couldn't find any relevant information for vary the application please advise
and someone told me i m not eligible for premium service as my one application is already with Home office and they can't give any decision on the same day ?
i can understand the circumstance they can't provide decision on the same day but at least they won't take years to reply as my family friend have applied two application and they took 2 years and 4 months ?
please advise me i would be very much thank ful
. I want to apply in April 2017 for ILR through the 10 year long residence. Arrived in 2007 as a dependant to an HSMP applicant, relationship broke down along the line and was refused the extension of my visa. I put in another application through 7 years child consent route was refused. Appealed to the upper tribunal and my appeal was refused because my solicitor was 1 day over the the 28 day given i.e BC expired on 16th of June 2014 and the appeal submitted on 16th of July 2014. I was then sent a letter by the upper tribunal that the matter be withdrawn by consent order and that it will be reviewed and decision reconsidered. I was later granted 30 months leave to remain under the 10 year family route.
