Reduce your ILR expiry date to 3 years to get the right amount.

Besides, any overpayment will be refunded.

THANks CR001

But if I reduce my ILR Date to three years
. Don’t think so it’s like giving them wrong information ?? And can book me for deception for giving them wrong information .
Any other way plz ?
Or u think it would be fine to reduce ILR EXPIREY DATE . So IHS details not part of main application form . Right

THAnks CR001 🙏🏿
But don’t u think so that it’s good idea to reduce ILR EXPIRY DATE as I m not supposed to give them wrong dates and they can book me as deception to hide or provide them wrong information .
Or u think it’s OK to reduce expiry date to pay exact amount .

Again ur advice plz

Oh nonsense. Many have done it due to this glitch with IHS. Alternatively, pay the IHS separately on the IHS website to get the reference number.

All they care is that £600 or so i paid how its paid they don't care. They even themselves guide you to pay according to a different category to enable to get to the £600 mark.
