Visa extension and new service system

Post by Alex11 » Thu Nov 08, 2018 9:57 am

Hello everyone,

As all the internet is covered with news of the introduction of the new application system, offices, etc
and Tier 1 Entrepreneur category is among others allowed to use it

I am wondering if the new application system allows you to apply and be reviewed quicker, like the 'super premium' service before? (about 1 week of so)

There are some rumors and it is not clear even from the official papers if anything like that is available now or not

I am particularly interested in the extension application

Thanks

You are right - there are and will continue to be rumors.

The new system is barely a week old - no one is expected to have results from that.

And I am sure HO is not introducing a new system in order to make things worse - so the objective at least would be to improve the service. They have, however, not changed any of their service standards.
My comments are in no way meant to be advisory. I have no professional knowledge of immigration. These are based on my own experience, convictions and personal interpretation of publicly available information.
