Hi Guys/Moderators

Now that I have your attention, I just need a wee bit of advise!

My LTR (under FLP) expires midnight tomorrow, I've (10mins ago) just forked out over £2K online (2nd ext) to the Alpha and onion's at the Home Office/UKVCAS or whatever they're called for now. My concern is that I am due for ILR (10 years residency) in less than 5 months.

SO guys, do you think there's anyway I can maybe push my luck via a cover letter via or just hope they don't triage my application in a few months so I can vary this application to settlement! The thought of paying another £3K in a few months is giving me sleepless nights (Not lying) . I know this is not the most inspiring post but money is tight and this system has ruined me over the 10 year period.

Thanks for your advice in advance.

I am afraid but you have to undergo some sleepless nights like many others. Almost everyone don't want to pay such heavy application fees but I am afraid they have to. You have to apply extension until you complete your 10 years otherwise you will be an overstayer that will break the continuity of your 10 years towards ILR.

Thanks for comment. As stated previously, I already submitted an extension online tonight. Overstaying/ Overstayer is out of the question my friend, I've been here way to long to know better.

hello! I'm due to extend my FLR FP (under 10-year parent route) next month and is it okay to ask you which one are you on?

P.S: A quick background on my journey: I was on spouse visa (applied before 2012) and after 5 years, I submitted an application for ILR. I was refused because I didn't satisfy the financial requirements. Consequently, HO switched me over to the FLR FP (parent route even though I'm still in a relationship with my husband). We have four children, all born in the UK and are British. I'm currently working and hubby is a stay-at-home dad. I'm having nightmares about my extension.

Hi Torte,

I'm on FLR FP 10 year route, applied in 2012 which was refused and went through the appeal journey. WON in First and Upper tribunal, HO eventually decided to grant 10yr LTR (in 2014) instead of 5 years which the judge ordered. Anyways I extended it once using same day service in 2016 which was pretty straight forward but coming towards my 10 years in a few months, I cant afford to go for same day (skint to say the least).

I will like to think you'll be fine, pretty much just use same documents (updated) eg letters from school and professionals to indicate you're participating in your children's upbringing (cant believe they make you prove whats naturally your rights) , updated bank statements, payslips and adequate accommodation.

Thats all I can conjur right now but if you need anymore info, do let me know.

Good luck.

I don't think they have same-day service for FLR FP extension?

Since I'm on the parent route should I send anything on my husband? Marriage license, his passport and ILR, proof of address etc?

Thank you in advance!

If you read my message again, I used same day service for FLP in 2016. I had the option few days ago (which i choose not to use) and it cost 2600+ including IHS surcharge!

It would add more weight to your application if you include the ILR and passport copy.

Goodluck
