Spouse Visa extension on Dec 2018, info required

[priyanka16]

Hi All Respected Moderators

I am due my Spouse visa extension on 15 Dec 2018. I need guidance and information.
When can I apply? How many days before the expiry date?

I am an Indian Citizen married to a Bangladedhi citizen (permanent resident of UK, with an ILR) moved to UK in March, 2016 on spouse visa.

Can anyone help me with what documents would I need to submit while applying for spouse visa extension. And what tests do i need to give. I gave IELTS IN 2015 with overall band score 7 and CEFR LEVEL C1 before applying for the visa.

I saw in one of your discussion someone wrote about 4 joint bills and 4 seperate proof of address for at least last 6 months, can you help in elaborately explaing it. Is it compulsory to submit joint bills.

I am currently earning annually approximately £ 19.5k full time and my husband £9.5k part time. Is it enough or it has to be more.

When i first applied I paid the full health surcharge amount, do I need to pay again during extension, if yes how much it would be?

Your advice and guidance is much appreciated. Thank you.

You should read the FLR(M) form and guidance notes, it answers most of your questions. Also, anything can change in the rules before December 2018.

Within 28 days before you reach 2.5 years residence in the UK.

Fine. You will need 6 months payslips and 6 months corresponding bank statements.

Yes you have to pay it again. £500 IHS for an extension.

Just one question, so do I need to give the CEFR A2 exam, or will the IELTS work. As in the certificate its written after two years need to give the test again.
