So if I read you correct then we cannot submit today and apply for a biometric appointment on Monday 3 July as that decision would be on Tuesday 4 July assuming that we get super priority and we would find ourselves having to apply for another expensive FLR(M) as we would have not been in the UK for...
Are you saying that we could apply today and hopefully get super priority and still book a biometric appointment for next week meaning that a decision would be done next week but the first date of the new visa would be after 21 July
Thanks for the clarification regarding the 28 days Was just concerned that if we submit and pay for the application today and do indeed get super priority then if we arranged a biometric appointment BEFORE 21 July 2023 the approval date and the start of the extension visa would be before we have bee...

Although still in the regulations, uploading electronic copies of bank statements downloaded from your bank’s website are accepted without a letter or stamp.
Bank account which we rely on for cash savings is NOT the bank account that we use to pay the rent and housing costs.
We will upload the tenancy agreement and a council tax bill but do we have to upload the bank account where the rent and council tax are paid from
Using Category D Cash savings to meet the financial requirement Bank account is in sponsors name ( my wife ) and not a joint account Regarding two questions on the online form need to check that we are answering them properly Online Question 1 Is the account with a bank or utility company for which ...

Hi Can I please get some advice regarding the following I believe that you are not allowed to leave the country while you are waiting for a decision on an FLR (M) extension and if you do it will invalidate the application Applicant is an airline pilot and leaves the country on a regular basis as par...

We will therefore BOTH travel ...
