Thank you, thank you, thank you!

I have contacted the forum with a couple of questions regarding my wife's PBS dependant visa a month ago. I got qualified, solid answers from vinny and CR001, showing me the right direction and providing some very critical information, of which even a solicitor I have contacted wasn't aware of. My ...

Urgent:London Victoria PSC for PBS Tier 2 Dependant as well?

We are in the middle of the application and noticed that apart from Croydon, there is a Premium Service Centre in London Victoria, apparently dealing with Tier 2 applications. Does this mean a Tier 2 dependant visa extension can be given there as well (main applicant being an ILR holder). Thanks a ...

Re: Immigration Healthcare Surcharge - Wrong amount locked

Thanks for the swift reply. God, didn't know that you cannot pay at the PSC anymore! In this case, which of the below is more appropriate in your view: - New registration on the IHS homepage, paying the full surcharge, taking an IHS number and returning to the existing application to enter this ...

Immigration Healthcare Surcharge - Wrong amount locked

Dear all, While applying for an extension of my wife's PBS Tier 2 dependant visa, we accidentally entered 14/Jan/2017 as the answer to the question "when is main applicant's visa expiring?" - this was a misunderstanding as my last Tier 2 visa and my wife's dependant visa is ending by 14/Jan/2017 and ...

Re: Tier-2 Dependent Visa extension after partner changes to

I wasn't aware of this, thank you very much. Because you say £200 per year of visa grant: My wife would fulfill the 5 year period in August 2017 and then apply for ILR. So actually she doesn't need a 3 year extension, a 1 year (or 2 to be on the safe side) would suffice. Is it possible to choose ...

Re: Tier-2 Dependent Visa extension after partner changes to

hi, Thank you very much for this reassurance. Because you mentioned it, one thing I don't understand in this form is the healthcare surcharge. Is this new? She was working full time until October, when she went to maternity leave. I don't remember having paid healthcare surcharge when we extended ...

Re: Tier-2 Dependent Visa extension after partner changes to

No, that's the crux, which made us crazy when we learned it! She applied actually on 12th July 2012, we missed that deadline by 3 days! That's why she has now to wait until August 2017 and because her current PBS dependant visa is running out mid-January 2017, we need a visa extension until August ...

Re: Tier-2 Dependent Visa extension after partner changes to

Hi Vinny, Thank you very much for your quick reply. Her first application as a PBS dependent was in July 2012. She came to the UK in August 2012, hence eligible for ILR by August 2017. In February 2014, both of our visas got renewed (mine as Tier 2 migrant, hers as Tier 2 PBS dependant). So just to ...

Tier-2 Dependent Visa extension after partner changes to ILR

Hi! I am really sorry if this case was discussed in the forum before. I have gone through the first 10 pages of this section but couldn't find an answer. I have received my ILR end of September after completing 5 years period early September on a Tier-2 visa. My initial Tier-2 visa was about to run ...
