When to apply for FLR(M)

Post by DNASA » Mon Jan 21, 2019 9:14 pm

Hi,

I'm sorry to ask this, but I haven't been able to find a clear answer.

I was given 33 months on my BRP.

Do I apply for FLR(M) 28 days before my BRP expires on my Spouse Visa or do I apply 28 days before my 30 month anniversary of being in the country?

I have assumed it's the date on the BRP, as I assume that is my leave to remain.

I arrived 2 days after getting my Visa.

Thanks,

DNASA

Hi Casa,

Thanks for your quick reply. Does that mean you cannot apply in say April if you had been in the country for 30 months in March even though your BRP only expires in May? This is the part I'm unclear on.

Thanks,

Nevermind, I found other posts that have clarified it's from 28 days before 30 months up to 28 days before the date on the BRP, as far as I understand.


Thanks again.

@Casa
Surely it can be upto 28 days before the 33 month period expires?

How is anyone on a 33 month visa expected to know to apply after 30 months which isn’t mentioned anywhere?
