Can I apply for UK work visa and tourist visa for another country at the same time?

Post by amulyan » Tue Jul 09, 2019 9:24 am

Some background to my question:
  • I'm on a work visa in UK
  • My husband is on a different category of work visa in UK
  • I applied to switch my visa (within UK) to be his dependant and it takes another 6-7 weeks for a decision. BUT they scanned my passport and gave the original back to me and said I need not turn it in
  • My question now is, since I have my passport with me, can I apply for a tourist visa now- Schengen or Australian? (I will only travel after my visa switch is approved)
  • Will my tourist visa be invalidated after my residence status is changed?

If your previous work visa is still valid and now you have back your passport then you can apply.
