URGENT: Health Surcharge Options

Post by sheanayu » Fri Sep 22, 2017 10:28 am

Hi,

When paying for Health Surcharge, there are 6 options for Exceptional talent:
Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa [£1000]
Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa 1 year [£200]
Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa 2 year [£400]
Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa 3 year [£600]
Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa 4 year [£800]
Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa 5 year [£1000]

What is the difference between Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa [£1000]
and Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa 5 year [£1000]

I'm applying for 5 years but selected the first option (Tier 1 (Exceptional Talent) visa) in health surcharge, and paid £1000. But in my visa application form, i put in "5 years" under "how long do you want to be granted?"

Will this affect my stage 2 application for 5 years?

thanks!

How much you pay depends on the length of visa you are applying for. IHS is £200 per year, payable upfront for the whole duration of the visa.

Thanks for your reply! I needed to pay £1000 for 5 years, I was just very confused to why there are 2 options for Exceptional talent inside Health Surcharge. Are the options I mentioned different from each other? Or they are the same?

Thanks again!

Likely the same and just a duplication.
