FLRM (extension) Documents Check

[board2018]

I’m applying for an extension to flrm. I wanted to clarify:-

1. The online form does not ask for photographs of me or my spouse for my application. Have they changed this? Initially I thought I had to attach this to my application from

2. Also as this is an extension do I need to provide photos of both of us and chats of me and my spouse?

I am applying by post.

Can I please have some confirmation?

Are you not applying for ILR on Set(M)??

Hi CR001

Unfortunately the application for SET M was a refusal because even thought my BRP’s expiry was 3rd of Dec 18 and I applied within the 28 day window. Overall I had not completed the 60months.

Seems there was some confusion then my second LTR was granted. Which lead to the expiry on the brp to be printed as December when it was meant to be Jan 19.

Therefore I have been asked to apply for another flrm extension so I can ensure I complete the initial 60months by completing an additional month.

CR001 is there anything I can do? If not I will be doing a postal FLRM application soon. If you can let me know about the photos as the online application doesent ask for them.

[CR001]

Your 5 years residence qualifying period starts from 10 January 2014 so you could only apply for ILR within 28 days before 10 January 2019.

You applied too early for your extension in 2016 which has created the shortfall you have.

Your only option is the extension application, paying Ihs and visa fees and then applying for ILR when you qualify and paying the ILR fee again.

You need to send photos, even if not used, better to send than not.

Thanks CR001. Unfortunately this is the only option and as most premium appointments are booked up until the end of November I am unable to get a decision soon.

I have put all may documents together for the FLRM extension route and I will be posting my documents soon along with photos.

On the extension route do I still need to give them photos of me and my spouse together along with any communication details?

I will open a thread today with details of the docs I want to send off for FLRM

Thanks

On the extension route do I still need to give them photos of me and my spouse together along with any communication details?

No. You need to provide evidence of cohabitation.

I will merge this topic with the new one you started.

[board2018]

Thanks CR001. So I am not providing photos of us together. Is everything else okay with the application documents? I am sending these tomorrow.

Thanks

[CR001]

Seems fine.

[board2018]

Thank you so much for such quick feedback.

CR001 - property inspection report? I’ve seen this on some websites. Is this required for FLRM extension?

[CR001]

CR001 - property inspection report? I’ve seen this on some websites. Is this required for FLRM extension?

Only required if you live in an HMO or houseshare with people unrelated to you. If you and your partner live alone in the mortgaged property, then it is not required,

[board2018]

I’ve supplied evidence of cohabitation for the past 2.5 years. Last year we bought a house so I also provided the mortgage statement and a few letters address to us for this.
Should I have provided a tennancy. I mentioned previously the tennancy had other people’s names on it and so we didn’t provide it as we didn’t have consent. We however provided all the documents required for cohabitation which shows the address we were staying at.
CR001 can you confirm? I’m stressed about this now.

[board2018]

Can someone please come back to me when they have a moment? Thank you.

[CR001]

No need for the tenancy agreement of old property if you have sufficient other documents.

[board2018]

Thank you for clarifying.
