Their current visa are valid till June 2019. To avoid the fee increase I thought of doing one of the following before 08-Jan-2019. Option 1: Co...

Hi CR001,

Thanks for your advice, I think I know what I should do

and also mind the difference in fees for both routes!!

Thank you for a prompt response. I understand about the clock resetting. What I want to ensure is that we can apply for her from within the UK. My plan is to book a premium service and get the visa in a day. Can I confirm that we can apply anytime, and that she doesn't have to leave the UK and appl...

You must apply before the visa expires. If it expires on 30th July, that is the last date you can apply. 31st July would be out of time. If you can get an appointment on or before 30th when visa expires, you must apply by post. I think there's a typo above. If you can't get an appointment on or bef...

pay-slip address should not be an issue and I believe HO won't consider payslip for Cohabitation requirement as long as you have other proofs like water, council, utility etc,. If you are worried then explain to the home office its genuine oversight on your part that your company system is not updat...

On a slightly different case of mine, I am curious to know whether B1 is accepted for A1 / A2. I couldn't see any clear rule/statement that B1 is accepted for A1/A2 (assuming B1 certificate is provided first time to Home office). My case: My spouse used A1 for initial FLR-M. Her FLR-M extn is due ne...

Hi ,

Thanks for your reply. It helps me and others in same situation.

The point here is that they are accepting 11 months of CT600.

They usually give visa for 33 months. don't know why 30 months for you.

All the best anyway!

Hi Krish,

How was your appointment and outcome of your spouse Visa FLR-M extension?

Please share your experience.

Thanks.

Thank you CR001. it would be great if you can provide link or quote paragraph/statement. I just want to see the rule for peace of mind.

I understand the following with respect to English Language requirement (UK Life skills) for FLR M visa leading to 5 year route to Settlement. A1 is required for initial FLR M A2 for extension after 33 months B1 for ILR I would kindly ask you that if B1 can be accepted for A2 as per current rules? P...

Some people found a way to escape from 'Fee increase' - by completing application and paying before 'Fee increase date', and then simply postponing 'Bio-metric Appointment date' to desired date. Why to worry for your case?!! You are Okay!
