Priority services are available (as the OP has confirmed) for spouse visas, and other visas from abroad.

HO is unlikely to pass or give up such a cash cow.

You didn't mention it but the money paid for that enquiry was probably wasted as well.

It may not be common but the Rules allow for the 10-year route to be granted on entry clearance visas.

They claim in many entry clearance spouse visa refusals that they considered if the applicant qualified on the 10-year route.

Thanks for the update, and it's good they drew attention to their error.

They are not infallible.

But on the application form it asks us why extending and one option is if unable to get married when arriving as a fiancee. Ive read on websites aswel that if we not able to get married we can extend providing evidence that a ceremony will be taking place From your subsequent posts, it appears you'...

More than 30 months can be granted; in line with GEN.1.13..

There will be a question on the form as to when your relationship started. The expectation generally is that you should provide evidence from around that date. So you have some control here; you can choose the date and provide evidence accordingly. You can check with the visa application centre wher...

It would have been more straightforward if the employer letter came from whoever is shown on the payslips and bank statements.

They will if you meet those, and the other requirements.

It is not advisable that you apply before 01 June 2023 because you run the risk of having to make another FLR application to get the required 5 years before you get ILR. It's ok for them to apply before the above date as the window to apply to avoid ILR shortfall would have opened. You can use pays...

It appears only part of the decision letter was shared but it seems from what was shared they deemed the applicant did not meet the requirements and granted the leave with reference to GEN.3.2.(3) as mentioned in D-LTRPT.1.2. because of their child. If it's not stated in the bit of the decision not ...

If it was possible to post the full details of the decision leaving out personal details it could help clarify on what basis they reached their decision and granted the stay, and if necessary, request a reconsideration.

Was your friend told the application was granted under D-LTRPT.1.2.
?

If so, they should state why R-LTRPT.1.1.(c) wasn't met.

I take this that as long as the total amount of salary you have earned is above 18k in the last months regardless of how many months, the person will qualify for the 2nd part of it. This is my understanding. If in the 12 months prior to the date of application, the threshold for part B is met, it i...

I have applied for the visa already. It looks like the application form for FLR (M) and FLR (FP) are the same right? I just put in the financial part that I don't meet the requirements and then it asked for much I was earning

Same form.

Update on my application. I am so happy to report that I've received an email stating my application is successful. I have been granted my last 30 months on Flrm. There was no mention of my application being late so I'm assuming I will be able to apply for for ILR in 2.5 years. This forum has been ...

Should work.

Varying the application is one way to overcome the challenge.

Refund info also covered in the link above.

Do you know the max gap time between online submission date and UKVCAS biometric appointment date? 45 days or 3 months?

The applicant will be provided with a date by which they have to attend an appointment to provide their biometrics.

It's usually about 9 weeks from the application date.

It appears the OP is referring to changing their application to a priority service so as to get a decision, BRP card quicker.

You normally get given the priority option prior to or at the time of payment.

It is may not be possible to change this afterwards, currently.

Yes it was my 1st extension.

* English A1 test (although it wasn't required)

Are you sure it was A1, not at least CEFR A2? English language is a requirement for the 5-year route.

In Appendix FM - E-LTRP.1.12 it says: “The applicant’s partner cannot be the applicant’s fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner, unless the applicant was granted entry clearance as that person’s fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner.” Does this mean that if we apply for unmarried partner visa, and then ...

Good morning All, Hopefully someone can help me again, I'm just getting some information so I can carry on sorting our cohabitation information My wife when in the Philippines received her spouse visa February 2020 .. she came to the UK on the 6th March 2020 with the 33month visa (BRP expiry Novemb...

Hello everyone, I have a question about the spacing of cohabitation documents for our FLR(M) visa. Does this spacing look ok? 5th July 2021 21st November 2021 7th March 2022 28th July 2022 November 5th 2022 March 7th 2023 It's just an example, what I'm trying to grasp is whether the gap between 5th...

Questions may be asked by the immigration officer such as if your wife has family members in the UK etc.

However, if admitted and based on the dates you've given, it shouldn't affect the spouse visa application.
