If you leave the UK and your visa expires, there is NO Section 3c protection,which only applies while in the UK. The person will also not be able to re enter the UK if their visa is expired and their pending application will be considered withdrawn.ariamus wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2019 5:31 pmMy wife went to her non-priority appointment at a Sopra Steria centre last week and they took a scan of her passport and her biometrics.
They returned her passport and nor did they check any of her original documents (we scanned them online beforehand)
Therefore could you actually travel even after your current 9th April visa expiry, as whilst an application is being considered your existing rights remain in place? Perhaps an experienced member can confirm.
Yeah, no, I definitely won't be travelling after I've submitted my documents in 2.5 weeks or, if it's still in consideration, after my expiry date if I don't have my documents back.CR001 wrote: ↑Wed Mar 06, 2019 6:18 pmIf you leave the UK and your visa expires, there is NO Section 3c protection,which only applies while in the UK.

During your appointment you should let the staff aware about your current travel plan so that they/you can manually write it down on the form.adlrose wrote: ↑Sat Mar 09, 2019 5:57 pmThanks so much everyone, for the help,
I just realised, that I of course, submitted all of my travel history but won't have been able to have put this week's work trip in the application I made last week, since the trip was booked after I submitted my online application. Will that be an issue? Thanks.
All application forms always ask about the current and previous passports, therefore, all of these should be attached unless one of them cannot be attached due to being lost/stolen. In case of lost or stolen it should be reported to police and relevant issuing authorities too.adlrose wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2019 11:34 amThanks so much, Seagul and everyone for their help.
Apologies, I've got another issue, a few days before my super priority/biometric appointment, and as I'm uploading my documents online. It's related to this topic of travel.
Context for this question:
- Moved to the UK in 2013 as a student, then switched to Tier 5 in 2014-2016, all on an old passport which expired in 2015 (and got a new passport in 2015)
- FLR M began in September 2016 where I used my current passport (and showed my old passport for reference, as it had my old visas in it)
- For this first extension in 2019, I'm still using my current passport which I got in 2015, a year before my first FLR M application
Now, I thought my current passport would be the only relevant one for this application but I realise that having to detail when I moved to the UK (2013) and every time I've left for a holiday or work-related trip, includes all travel from 2013-2015 which pertains to my old passport. Do I need to show or submit this as well? Even though it expired well before my first FLR application?
I presume they've got everything on file, but I just realised that the online application never asked in detail what prior immigration status I was on before FLR M in 2016? Only asked when I moved here. But since I've said I moved here in 2013 and detailed my old travel history before FLR M, will I need to make it clear what visas I was on and submit my old passport as well?
My main issue now is that I can't find my old passport that expired in 2015, and initially wasn't worried about it as the application never stipulated bringing old passports.
I am already writing a cover letter to let them know about my March 2019 work trip that wasn't mentioned on my online application (the above topic in this thread), should I also write about my lost old passport that contains my old visa and old travel history that is referenced in the online application?
Sorry if this is confusing, but I'm a few days out and starting to get worried again.
Thanks for all your help!
Oh dear, thanks Seagul! Even an old expired passport would need to be reported?seagul wrote: ↑Wed Mar 20, 2019 8:47 pmAll application forms always ask about the current and previous passports, therefore, all of these should be attached unless one of them cannot be attached due to being lost/stolen.

In my view even the passport is expired but if lost/stolen then must be reported.adlrose wrote: ↑Thu Mar 21, 2019 12:01 amSorry, I meant to add to ask about whether I'd really report a lost old passport that expired long before my FLR M time period from 2016?
I can't even find any relevant information for reporting old passports as usually, it's about losing current passports.
Is this not something I could explain to the caseworker? Given that it only pertains to my travel history prior to my first FLR M application?
