Tier 2 Dependent Visa Extension(IHS)

Post by pradee04 » Mon Jul 15, 2019 9:47 pm

Hi,
I recently got my ILR. Before that I was on Tier 2 general visa. My wife has been on dependent visa for about 2+ years so far. I now need to renew my wife visa for 3 years(As PBS dependent visa). After filling up the online application, on IHS paying screen its asking me enter my ILR visa validity date which in fact valid for almost five years. IHS is getting calculated based on ILR validity. So It is asking me pay for 5 years, However I only need my wife visa for 3 more years. I am sure lot of people would have been in the same situation before after new online portal thing.. Any one knows a way to pay IHS just for 3 years ???. or what is actual/official work around for this scenario????

If you had taken the time to search through a few recent topics, you will see the answer to this question time and time again is to put your ILR expiry date as 2022, so 3 years from now, to get the correct IHS fee.

Ho is aware of the IHS glitch. No issue and many have done this and received approval.
