Hi, my 3-year skilled work visa obtained through my employer is set to expire in February. I initially switched from a tier 4 visa, and during that transition, the immigration skill charge was exempt. However, my employer is now uncertain about the category for applying for my Certificate of Sponso...

today I received my BRP and it has 31/12/2024.

No BRPs are being issued with an end date beyond 31/12/2024 because the system is changing to fully digital then

nks for the response.

I have got the decision today and but it in the letter it was mentioned that I can stay till 04th Jan 2016.

But my cos end date is 21st Dec 2026. I suspect instead of 04th Jan 2027, it was provided wrongly to me.

2016 is probably a typo. Wait for the BRP

Myself, partner and my daughter entered UK on Skilled worker route "Dec 2018". We are now eligible for ILR next month and planning to process it. Also we had baby boy born in UK "Dec 2020" and took him Indian passport & Dependent visa as we didn't had ILR during his birth. Now we are planning to su...

contradictory information all over the place including on the .gov websites where in some instances it states that a visa/vignette from an expired passport can be used to prove Right to Rent and in others it states that it can not be used do you have the link to the gov website where it states that...

I contacted the Home Office to try and find a way forward to prove my Right to Rent and unfortunately the only advice that they could give me was to apply for a BRP which I have now done You contacted an outsourced commercial enquiry service, not the HO, and they frequently provide incorrect advice...

I have applied for ILR in July 2021 and since then I have been waiting for a decision from Home Office about my application. Suggest you contact your MP who will make enquiries at the HO. 2+ years is far too long waiting for a decision. https://www.citizensadvice.org.uk/immigration/problems-with-a-...

When I applied for my wife to extend dependent visa , her IHS surcharge cost more than £624. Her surcharge calculates from the day when we are applying for her Visa .

It looks like my best bet is to apply to switch to a BNO visa but I can't seem to find the financial requirements for that - other than "required to cover living costs for 6 months". Applicants who have lived in the UK for 12 months with permission before switching to the Hong Kong BN(O) route will...

I *think* (I'm not certain) that there is an exception for the "holding liquid funds for six months" rule if they come from the sale of a property. This is indeed the case subject tocertain conditions. See p48 of the guidance https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/upload...

Finally, as my wife has a BNO passport would it be viable to switch to that route now which I understand has less stringent financial requirements?

The BNO route is also feasible, see
https://www.gov.uk/british-national-ove ... -in-the-uk

Am I correct to say that if we send off the ILR application in November it will automatically be rejected under the financial requirements problem not necessarily. Read paras 11 and 11A of Appendix FM=SE of the Immigration Rules https://www.gov.uk/guidance/immigration-rules/immigration-rules-append...

Can we apply for T2 extension anytime before it's expiry.

Yes you can, provided you have a valid CoS.

Your wife should use SET(O) and enter details of your last CoS.

There were some changes to the rules that complicated your wife’s circumstances.

Under the circumstances should the OP's wife perhaps try to apply on form FLR(IR) or FLR(HRO)?

am really confused mate. If Tier 1 general route is closed means who ever are on the PBS Dependent Leave to remain visa need to now switch to a Spouse visa? Do you know if I need to apply to switch my wife to Family Visa as a Partner or Spouse? I don't think so but wait for the input of other forum...

T1 is indeed closed, as stated in the Overview of the linked document, but the linked document itself and the link in it to the dependant visa application are current
