It sped things up for me when I was waiting on a decision (ultimately got rejected) in August. I'm sure they're just reviewing it still ...

Hello All,

Could you please tell me if there is any validity for NARIC certificate.

I have a NARIC state of comparability document from Aug 2011. Will that still be valid to include in the list of documents for my ILR? Or do I need to apply for a new one?

Can someone please answer my question? Thanks

Thursday, 25 August 2016 . Thanks Vinny. That explains I don't need to go for extension. Another Question: If for some reason the visa is refused and I had to extend my Tier2 visa, do I get a grace time to do this as my visa is expiring on 25th Aug 2016.
