Hi all, I started online application for my wife's FLR(M) extension visa, left some of the answers incomplete (travel dates outside of the UK for her and our 2 children), proceeded to the IHS payment, obtained reference number, inserted it in the application, and at that time there was an option to ...

Just spoke to Home Office helpline and was able to clarify most of my questions: - if our visa expires on 14th June, the earliest day when we can submit new application online is 17th May - when submitting the application on 17th May, we would be able to see if there are premium "get decision next d...

You will only see the appointments after you submit and pay. You cannot see or book appointments before that. Note the appointment is not a premium appointment where a decision is made after seeing a ukvi casewroker. The appointment is only for biometric enrollment and identity check at UKCVAS who ...

Hi everyone, My wife's visa ends on 14th June 2021. Due to some complicated travel, we need to leave the UK on 27th May and return mid June, therefore we decided to apply for her visa extension using premium appointment at Croydon (I understand it's operational now) before we leave. We want to get a...

Hi everyone, need some advise on extending my wife's visa. Not the most straightforward case, so I am sorry for taking a bit of time to explain the whole situation below. She applied for FLM visa on 27 June 2018 while living with me in the UK, but we were not officially married yet. However, my wife...

If you travel outside of the UK after applying, your visa application will be withdrawn.

So can I return to the UK on 13th June and apply online on the same day, providing that visa expires on 14th June?

There is no postal service application anymore. You must apply online before the visa expires and upload supporting documents digitally on the ukcvas portal. Oh, I see :) I can apply digitally, no problem at all. So do you know if I can apply on 5th June, then travel out of the UK on the 7th, come ...

Entry may not be the main issue here. How will your wife submit her visa extension application before the expiry date to avoid becoming an overstayer? :idea: Hi Casa, thanks for your reply! So I was hoping to book Home Office appointment for extension for the 14th June, or alternatively apply by po...

Hi everyone, Need some advise here. My wife was FLM visa (2,5 years), based on the fact that we have a British child. Not sure what is the exact name of this visa. It's due to expire on 14th June 2021, and then we need to apply for further 2,5 years. We must go abroad for an important event on 7th J...

What is your wife's immigration history? She's been on Tier 2 studying law in London since 2017. Her student visa expired on 28th June 2018, and we applied for FLR(FP) on 26th June 2018 by post, just before the expiry. She was heavily pregnant at the time, and an immigration lawyer advised that it ...

I hope your former wife and child are coping well

Thanks for your care - you can rest assured they are coping well, especially considering the amount of money I am giving to my ex-wife each month voluntarily. It is more than a double average Londoner's salary.

She has since given a birth to our child (who now has British Passport), and officially married me (after we finally received official approval from Home Office). I've submitted copy of Birth Certificate, child's passport, and marriage certificate to the Home Office as additional documents to my wi...

Hi all, My partner applied for her FLR(FP) visa in June 2018, biometrics submitted shortly after. She has since given a birth to our child (who now has British Passport), and officially married me (after we finally received official approval from Home Office). I've submitted copy of Birth Certificat...

Hi everyone, My wife is currently awaiting for her FLR (FP) visa from Home Office. We were not officially married when she applied for a visa in June 2018. We are planning to get her FLR (M) visa as soon as she receives her current FLR (FP) visa. We are getting married next week and she wants to tak...

Hi there, I am applying for my fiancee's spouse visa soon. She's Russian, I am British. I understand that a minimal financial requirement for me to sponsor her is £18,600 PA. I am providing payslips and bank statements for 3 months where the total amount earned during 3 months is more than £18,600. ...

Hi everyone, My fiancee, who's currently in the UK under Tier 4 student visa (valid until June 2018), is pregnant. She's registered with local NHS and is under maternity supervision. Her expected birth date (end of July 2018) falls for the period when her current Tier 4 visa will be expired. She wil...

Dear all, My girlfriend is currently in the UK under Tier 4 General, which expires at the end of June 2018. She is taking on PhD course starting in September 2018. She requires to be physically present in the UK from mid-July 2018 onwards, due to exceptional circumstances (she's due to have a baby d...

Hi there, Very difficult situation here, I am currently with ILR (applied for naturalisation recently and will get my British Passport around April 2018). I am married, my spouse is on FLR(M) and we have a child who holds British Passport. My spouse will get her ILR only after 3 years (in 2021). I n...

Hello there, Rather difficult situation here, so any advice would be highly appreciated! I am an ILR (Indefinite leave to remain) holder, applying for my citizenship next week, so fingers crossed I will have British Passport by around January - February 2018, considering current waiting time. My wif...

'Adequate maintenance' is still relevant for some applications for extension where a spouse has not passed LIUK and are still under the old rules etc and is also relevant to settled or British spouse who claim certain qualifying benefits (carers allowance for example) who are exempt from the financ...

Ignore the 'adequate maintenance'. Not relevant to new FLR(M) applications post 9th July 2012. HO is only interested in your gross annual income. If you meet the financial requirement with YOUR income, you only need to provide YOUR payslips and bank statements. You do realise that the financial req...

Hi there, I wanted to clarify regarding maintenance requirement for FLR(M) applicant + 1 dependent. The guidance suggest I must show at least £22,400 salary to sponsor my wife and child. However there's also 'adequate accommodation' requirement and this is where confusion starts. In my case the sala...

I successfully received my ILR (long residence) yesterday at Croydon PEO, and I now have a question regarding my dependents, who are currently dependents to my Tier 2 General visa which was due to expire in 2018, which is technically not valid since getting my ILR yesterday. Is there any time limit ...

Many thanks, does this mean NCS will make copies of the documents (including current passport) and return them to me straight away and then send copies to Home Office (meaning I'll have no problems travelling)?
