Re: UKVI Digital Changes, No PEO/PSCs from October 2018?

Yes, they didn’t mention anything about that, so it can be assumed that the 28 days is still applicable otherwise they would have spoken about it. Remember it is a regulatory requirement. Thanks bizman, I do you agree that it will probably be assumed 28 days is still applicable… However I’m wonderi...

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

Hi there, I am getting increasingly anxious about the whole process of my FLR(M) visa. My visa expires December 14th and I (stupidly) booked to return back to the states on the 21st of December for Christmas. My plan was to use pay for the premium service. I've been trying for a 1.5 weeks to book w...

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

Hi allyf. Unfortunately I’m not really sure how to interpret the article but it sounds like the PSC system will be changing. I spoke to a solicitor today and as far as she is aware premium service appointments will still be available in Dec (although as anyone see any?!) with the main change being ...

Re: SET(M) confused with 60 Month time period & 28 days rules

The initial FLR(M) grant date is the start of the 5 year qualifying period. It's completed after the 5th anniversary. Then subtract 28 days prior to that. As you have until before expiry of leave, 14 Jan 2019, why take the risk that the UKVI may disagree with the boundary dates? Pick some safer dat...

No sooner than 28 days prior to the completion of your 5th anniversary of your initial grant of FLR(M) and before expiry of leave.
Will I be counting back 28 days including the expiry date of Jan 14..this determines whether it is dec 17 or 18.
Thank you again

Re: SET(M) confused with 60 Month time period & 28 days rules

Probably safer from 18 December 2018 and before 14 Jan 2019. Hi Vinny, Is it 28 days from when my second FLR (M) expires on January 14? According to this date it brings it back to December 17. Sorry for talking specifics but just in case I am able to get an appointment December 17 (not 18th ) i’d l...

Please click on the above link for more information.
Thank you Vinny, that was what I was looking for! Just to clarify my dates on my BRP, I was issued the first one on Jan 15, 2014 for 30 months and my 2nd BRP runs out on Jan 14, 2019. Does that mean I can apply as early as Dec 17, 2018?

Home Office is correct.
Thanks Vinny. I noticed that some people were able to put their tier 2 towards the 60 months. Is it specifically the marriage visa that doesn’t count towards the 60 months then?

SET(M) confused with 60 Month time period & 28 days rules

Timeline is as follows: -I entered UK on marriage visa in Aug 2013 to get married in the UK. -I was issued first FLR (M) in Jan 2014. Extension made 2.5 years later in June 2016. This current FLR visa expires in Jan 2019. I was...

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

I’m really hoping the school holiday theory is correct! That gives us a bit of hope! Once I see or hear that December appointments are available I’ll be able to breath again! I need an appointment the week before Christmas..lucky me! 😏

Re: Premium Service appointment booking issue for ILR (LR)

So, has it been confirmed that there will not be any appointments after the end of November? Or is it still a technical issue?
