hi. my tier 1 genral visa expires 17 aug 2012. when i try to book a PEO online, there are no dates available till aug 7 in all the 7 offices (no dates beyond aug 8 are highlighted).
any inputs on how i can book an appointment to submit in person?
i travel a lot and with avg processing times by post at 60 days, it would be painful

The date window stretches to 90 days from today. However, the appointments are only available for next 42 days from today. So you got time. You wont be able to book appointments for August as of now. Wait till late june and start trying.

Why is it only for next 42 days when the calendar shows 90 days period? I thought we should be able to book it for Aug 7 today. But no appointments were available beyond 18th Jun.

Excellent question. It baffles me too. They could have just kept the date window to 42 days rather than 90 days. Also, I don't know whether you notice a little message on the right pane when you try to select the date. It says, Do not choose an end date more than 42 days in the future.

very good question !! m also worried about the dates, as my husband's visa expires on 1st nov 2012 and we've started the processing and collection of documents but our visa agent said in a premium service there is only 50% chance to get the dates on 1st nov 2012(visa expiry date) and also he 'll receive the payslips on the same day which must be submitted to UKBA with documents before 5 pm

Hi Sushma,
Probably I am just being thick here, but if the visa expiry date is 1 Nov, why do you want an appointment for the exact same day? Why not 10-15 days prior to the actual expiry date?

hi
we can submit all the documents 10-15 days prior to the actual expiry date but the problem is we'll have only 11 months payslips as the 12 months payslips 'll receive on the expiry date of visa i.e 1st Nov 2012

Oh ok... you are right. Unless 11 months' pay is enough to get the points required for your extention you will have to do it on the same day!

% of risk about??
Booking an appointment?
Zero.
Making an out-of-time application in person?
Assuming out-of-time application is allowed under the category you wish to apply for, it will either be accepted and deferred, or you'll be advised to apply by post.
Life isn't fair, but you can be!

Actually we have the problems like, on the date of expiry we are not sure that salary 'll be credited to the account so in that reason v cant apply for the same day in a premium service (as v'll not get payslips and bank statement)so my query is can v apply in the first week of that month instead of expiry date, i mean over stay is allowed? any grace period is allowed
Hi pls tel me what is out-of -time application ? how many days are allowed for over stay under Tier 1 general
please Let me know

Sushma:
Did you get an appointment?
My visa too expires on 1st Nov, and I want to book appointment like 15 days in advance, not sooner, to avoid an early start date.
As a test, I too tried to book an appointment but kept getting technical problem for 10 to 15 mins after midnight.
Another thing, did you contact any agent to get the appointment?
TIA
Nitin
