If I decide to cancel my application, are there limits to when I can make a new application? Would I be able to send another online application 2 weeks later?

I've done nothing but read obscure gov.uk webpages and PDF's for 48 hours :shock: I've found what I consider to be the key paragraph in this PDF: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/606967/Applications-for-leave-to-remain-v1.0.pdf which I'v...

I believe, as a Tier 2 applicant, you were allowed to do this because of what is stated on page 9 here: https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/723413/Calculating-continuous-leave-v17.0-EXT.pdf and therefore they took the "decision day" which f...

can someone explain this then? https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/606967/Applications-for-leave-to-remain-v1.0.pdf near end of page 18, it states clearly: The date of application for online applications is the date it is submitted via the ...

I just wanted to add some clarification to this submission date/appointment date issue, you might have seen in another thread that I submitted online too early and have been hunting around for answers. On this page: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/specified-application-forms-and-procedur...

for those following this thread, I have posted an update in another thread: https://www.immigrationboards.com/indefinite-leave-to-remain/premium-service-appointment-booking-issue-for-ilr-lr-t260273-580.html#p1704044 so at the moment, it seems like I will most likely cancel the application. The PDF r...

I had reply that paper form still works with existing booked premium service appointment.

where did you email them? Which address?

I did not have experience with your situation but what I tell is from reading the guideline and others' experience shared in this forum. So: Your wife is eligible to apply from 28/11/2018. Date of decision: if you book for biometrics taken on or after 28/11/2018, it is fine. Any date up to 28 days ...

You search for the document titled "Indefinite leave to remain: calculating continuous period in UK" and look for Page 9. But I copy it here for you. It looks even better because they can consider any date up to 28 days after the data of application. Calculating the specified continuous period Appl...

This seems very good news, I would be interested if there is a different system for online submissions or if that PDF has been superseded by something else. It does seem up to date and valid though.

If you read the guideline, you can see it states very clearly the caseworker must consider either: (i) the application date, (ii) the appointment date; or (ii) the decision date whichever is most beneficial to the applicant. This means you should be fine because they will consider the best for you,...

I've spoken again to the visa helpline and been told "as long as you have the appointment within the 28 day limit, it should be fine" which I said was clearly not anything like the type of confirmation I was looking for. He then also said "the rules clearly state that online submission date is to be...

Just now spoke to someone in their call center.
They said you will be able to claim full refund and usually get it in 5 working days and then submit new application when you are eligible.

Who are you calling, Sopra Steria to cancel the appointment or the visa helpline to cancel the application?

Can we cancel an appointment? And re submit new one by the end of November. As no one seems to know what is correct and Do we get full refund £3020 form UKVCAS? I rang them earlier today but they have very limited information. They are giving an excuse of being third party. I already looked into ca...

I submitted the online SET(M) today, although haven't made an appointment yet. I rang the visa helpline and was told categorically that it was the appointment date that was the relevant one, not the submission date. I also read similar on this forum. However, after having read some contrary informat...

Hi all Just got a reply from my lawyer and has confirmed 'The date of online form submission will be considered as date of application by the Home Office''. So please adjust according to 28 day period. As usual please confirm with you immigration adviser/lawyer before proceeding. Good luck! this is...

I'm currently applying for SET(M) and went through the Sopra Steria system this morning. The issue is that unless the centres are open, they are not shown in the Appointment Booking system. I am in the South East and the only centres offered to book from were: London Premium Birmingham Cambridge War...

Hello everyone, this is my experience for booking an appointment with new system for December. i filled online form, chose new system, paid. then got to final steps to upload a few documents and book an appointment. i was transferred to another site (something steria) and there i could book an appo...

but I seem to recall reading about some other rule related to the date of when she was given her initial spouse visa. Am I imagining that? Presumably she is on a Spouse settlement (FLR M) visa and not a PBS Dependent visa. The above applies ONLY to PBS dependent visas. If your wife holds a spouse s...

I want to get dates confirmed, especially with some doubt about the new system and application/appointment date doubts. My wife was given her initial spouse visa on 3rd October, 2013 We entered the UK on December 26th, 2013 She was granted FLR June 15th, 2016 (expiry January 3rd, 2019) As I understa...
