From the documents we have and from the online application we filled :o
Reason I ask is that you have put the BRP in the 'Residence in the UK' section however it states on the UKVCAS this goes into 'Proof of Identity / Travel History.

Re: IELTS for extension. Is it worth doing B1 in my situation

No problem, yes you pay for the IHS before completing the online application. It's different when applying within the UK, much more simplified. Did you ensure that when booking the test it was from the approved test centers, refer to Appendix O to cross-check.

Hi Sarah,

I'm no expert in Immigration law or procedures but from reading what you have stated in your initial post you're breaking Immigration laws. I can't see you getting any tangible advice from this forum.
