Not much is required for the extension. Make sure you are earning the right amount of money for experienced worker. At the end of your form, you will be given a checklist of all the documents required,

I went through the extension recently and here's what I've submitted (through same day service):
- passport
- application form
- 2 passport photos
- couple of last payslips and P60 (not required but was asked by case worker)
- also was asked about evidence that money from payslips were actually landed into my bank account (had to do a screenshot for case worker from banking app)
- if U have BRP U'll need prove of Ur registration with police

that's it and application was successful

Thank you all for the reply. May I know if we need to submit the proof of English knowledge in case of extension (Tier 2 Gen - PBS)?

Regards.

HI,

Can someone clarify the statement

"if U have BRP U'll need prove of Ur registration with police"

I have a Tier 2 general and going for an extension. I have a BRP card, do i need to do police registration before i go for extension?

Is it something everyone has to do once you get BRP in UK? or only if you are explicitly asked to do this?

No not everyone who gets a brp. Only if stated you have to and from certain counties.

Please also keep all your questions in your own topic rather than tagging onto other members threads from the beginning of the year.
