tier 1 ent extn to 10 yrs SET(LR) advise needed

[Sva_avs]

Dear Immigration guru's

I came to UK on

sep 2007 as student visa

(student visa from sep/2007 - aug/2008
student visa extended sep/2008 - mar/2010
student visa extended apr/2010 - sep/2010
applied PSW nov/2010 - nov/2012)

in nov 2012 applied for T1 enterprenuer 50k route as a team .
visa refused in may/2013, made appeal. At tribunal withdraw application and made fresh application with in 28 days.
T1 entp visa approved Apr/2014 - Apr/2017. jan/2015 married and wife came to uk as T1 entrp dependent.
T1 entp extension applied on Apr/2017 as a team and dependents.
Biometric enrolled on may/2017

from today 2.5 months left for 10years (if i apply 28days before 10 years completed)

my question is

1) if I wont get result by sep/2017 can i vary my apllication to 10 yrs SET(LR)
2) I would like go for Premium service, what should i do for my wife visa application (which i applied T1 entp dependent extn)?
3) how long it takes to get a decision?
4) what documents I need to provide ( all my original documents are with UKVI)

I heared some news, the UKVI will reject for changing application from T1 entp etx to 10 yrs LR
(bcz of overstaying from apr/2017 to sep/2017) is this true?


Could any immigration guru suggest me what to do next.

thank you

regards
svs

1) if I wont get result by sep/2017 can i vary my apllication to 10 yrs SET(LR)

Yes

2) I would like go for Premium service, what should i do for my wife visa application (which i applied T1 entp dependent extn)?

vary to FLR(M). Her immigration clock will reset to zero

3) how long it takes to get a decision?

Certainly not the same day

4) what documents I need to provide ( all my original documents are with UKVI)

ILR case worker will have to request your documents to be sent to PSC hence no same day decision

I heared some news, the UKVI will reject for changing application from T1 entp etx to 10 yrs LR
(bcz of overstaying from apr/2017 to sep/2017) is this true?

If you applied before visa expiry, you are covered under section 3C, no overstaying !

hi zimba, thank you very much for your reply.

I was applied by post last day of my visa expire date

1) Is their any option to request UKVI to send my all original documents to ILR case worker before i go to premium service?
2) can i apply my wife visa FLR(M) on premium service on same day as me. could you give me a best suggestion.

thank you

1) Is their any option to request UKVI to send my all original documents to ILR case worker before i go to premium service?

No. The ILR caseworker has to accept the variation of your previous application to ILR first and then request your documents.
However a cheaper option is to apply by post and later request UKVI to upgrade it to premium (upgrade request might not be accepted) That way your documents end up in the PSC and you could get a same day answer.

2) can i apply my wife visa FLR(M) on premium service on same day as me. could you give me a best suggestion.

Yes, however you both will not get a same day answer and have to wait. Pay online, book an appointment and submit both applications with a covering letter detailing your intention to vary your previous leave.
