Flr Fp extension

[Gandarako]

Hi,
Please help, my husband visa expires on the 1st of November and his passport expires on the 1st of October. We cant renew his passport since the embassy is closed and no there are no available appointments for passport extension
Can he apply in September for 3rd visa extension before his passport expires?

Waited 5 days for someone to reply my queries but sadly no one is interested. Thanks anyway

If your husband has reached 30 months on his current visa you can apply for the extension now with no need to worry about the passport. Flr fp is also online they do not need the physical document you can use the brp if needed. This is a community forum and all advice is free and voluntary (and they always advise to seek professional legal advice) as long as you aren't disrespectful they will let you know maybe they need more information to answer. Instead of worrying about the length of time you are waiting for a reply from regular people in a 'timely'manner you should contemplate that the advisers here also have regular jobs and lives and require patience as well.

You want to avoid applying too early due to when he's about to complete 10 years of legal residence in the UK under SET LR to avoid being short if he intend to continue renewing his visa under this route.

You can explain in a cover letter of your current circumstances.
