online form for tier 1 extension available yet?

We're about to apply for extension to a tier 1 (entrepeneur) visa - reading about the new system rolled out in November, we were expecting to be able to apply online, but I can still only find an online form

I tried ringing the govt helpline to ask, but option 4 'extend your stay' enquiries was not available

Anyone know whether the online route has been delayed?

thanks!

sorry, mean to say 'can only find a download paper form'

You can't apply online for extension at the moment. Apply via post

Hi - we're applying to extend for tier 1 (entrepeneur) spouse using form (rather than online). This form asks for previous name and proof of previous name (in this case this would be the marriage certificate), but the list of enclosed documents at the end says that if you've already been granted entry as a spouse, you don't need to include marriage certificate. So my questions are:

- do we need to include the marriage certificate as proof of previous name
- if so will a copy do, or must it be the original

thanks!!!

Please do not tag your questions onto other topics in the spouse settlement sub forum, it is a completely different route and set of rules to tier 1 dependent.

re. tier 1 (entrepeneur) extension

There are 'online' versions of dependant partner and dependant child forms. (I understand that this is separate from new online system)

My question is: are these forms submitted online, or are they printed out and submitted along with main applicant's form and supporting documents?

thankyou

They are submitted online. Then you have to follow the process listed that you get at the end of the online process.

We are doing first extension application.

We have investment in the form of a director's loan - filling in the application form, table 3b1 asks for 'date of investment'. I'm assuming they don't want the date of every single transfer into the business bank account? what date do I put? - there are numerous payments over the period of two and a half years (which show up in the most recently filed accounts as money owed to creditors - naming the director as a creditor)

Also do I just put the value that can be traced in the business bank account? (the total value of the debit to the director in the accounts is greater as it includes the value of assets transferred to the business, which I know we can't include)


Many thanks

They do want the date of every single remittance and evidence to back it up. You only need to list to the total of 50K/200K depending on your route.

I need some guidance on completing form 3b1, please (table of evidence for direct investment of funds)

The investment is in the form of a directors loan account and share capital (both of which are shown in the most recent accounts - Dec 2017)

Actual payments into the business bank account were made over the course of 2015-2017 - so what is the 'date of investment' (date that the director's loan account was created, or date of accounts, or a date range?)

The amount owed to the director shown in the accounts is greater than that which can be shown in the business bank accounts (due to direct purchase of assets and passing on of existing assets etc) - should I just show the amount I have evidence for in the 'Amount of investment' column

Many thanks

Please do not start new topics for each question.

Hasn't this question been answered ?

hi
I thought I'd asked it - but cannot find my question or an answer - and 'search' does not seem to be available to mw. Can you help me find the answer?

thanks

ignore my last comment - I can see the answer now - thanks!

Hi

We're applying for IHS to go with extension application.

The online guidance says it £200 per person - but having filled in online form for me and my dependants it's asking for £600 each - has it gone up - and by 200%???

thankyou

It's £200 per year. So a 3 year visa is £600.

...that makes sense. But isn't an extension to Tier 1 entrepeneur 2 years? (so should be £400 each) There doesn't see to be a way to specify an extension on the IHS online form?

thanks

Is this for a Tier 1 Dependent extension??

If for main and dependent, you need to pay what it asks for and any overpayment will be refunded during the decision process.

I see that the online form is now available (literally as we are just about to post the downloaded form)

I thought I saw somewhere that the cost of the online service was higher but I cannot find that information now - can anyone help?

thanks
