When to renew FLR(M) for ILR

Post by Chongyla » Sun Nov 11, 2018 8:56 pm

Hi All,

Read through heaps of threads but haven't been able to find the answer.

I know you can apply for ILR 28 days prior to hitting your 5 years, but when should I apply for my spouse visa renewal in order to make the timings all work?

Current visa: FLR(M)/spouse visa
Date issued: 13 May 2017
Date of expiry: 13 November 2019

I am planning to renew my spouse visa via the same day appointment/priority service.

Thanks in advance

Preferably very near to date of expiry to avoid any shortfall in getting ILR. You can also apply 28 days before of completing 30 month's
The opinion expressed as above is neither a professional advice nor contesting/competing to other member's opinion/advice.

On what date did you enter the UK?

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
