Please do not advise something stupid like this. You can renew your visa on the last day of your leave to remain, but thats the most pathetic thing to do Please mind your language. It may be "pathetic" for you but what is quoted is both legally and technically correct. If you have a technical/logic...

If anyone fancies a chance avoiding 2nd extension by gaining the time taken in postal applicantion, then he can do two things to introduce delay from his side: 1. Apply late by post! you can apply up until the last day of your current leave. And use the payment method as "bankers draft" for two reas...

I had my PEO appointment through Corydon on Monday 14.5.12. The Caseworker requested for more information, NI2 contribution & proof of Self-employment, this is now (16.5.12) posted to them. How long do you think the caseworker will take to make the decision? I hope they do not take as long as posta...

How? (If using old form, there is no option to circle £1500)

Did you pay the new fee? When UKBA states that the old form is accepted until 21 days from 6-April-2012, how is applicant expected to pay new fee when there is no option for new fee in the old form? For. E.g for paying via Credit/Debit card he only have some options to circle on the form, in case o...

But my humble request to all don't go with my case and think you get same points or age as initial application, it all depends on case worker First Congratulations on swift grant of visa! Let me correct on your quote. It is NOT upto Case worker to award you 20 points for age. It is because the rule...

1.your own limited company
2. Yes the picture is also taken

UKBA telephone enquiry typically answers we cannot tell the status of any case until 6 months have passed On May 23, you will have waited 6 months since posting your application, on that day you can call ukba to enquire your case. Was there any supporting evidence in your application that you could ...

One of my friend just did his extension of HSMP JR visa on 12-April at Croydon. So yes you can go with PEO option.

Will be applying for extension before 14th June 2012. As I being the main applicant is here in UK less than 12 months now as I arrived late in UK. Hence £800 for main applicant + £1600 for dependent = £2400 total amount which I will be showing. Or as I am here in UK less than 12 months, do I need t...

Hey WRS, Do you anything about what happened to this individual who you are referring to got the same letter? how did he manage to resolve his situation?? and thank you all you guys, it seems i will probably have to get a lawyer to speak to UKBA on my behalf. It might resolve the problem. You can r...

I phoned HO today w.r.t above mentioned queries. They asked me to wait for few more days and if still fees is not deducted then I will need to phone them again so that they can raise the query. They haven't provided any specific answer why the things are getting delayed. About the change of address...

Hi, Just wondering if Tier 1 (G) dependant has the same rights in regards to work as the Tier 1 (G) Migrant If there is any restriction it is mentioned on the visa vignette. Generally tier-1 general visa/dependent visa does not allow to work as doctor/dentist in training, which means they are allow...

I have checked with the bank and they say its not possible I will also send a letter to the home office with the new updates Does anyone know the time it takes for an application to be sent back if it is invalid . The application should be sent back once the payment is declined and it is tagged as ...
