Did you apply through solicitor?

No, I did the application myself. All i got to go on is the BRP letter given to me when i got the card and anconfirmation letter from home office on ILR being granted.

Hi I got my ILR relatively straight forward. However, upon receiving my BRP I noticed the photo on it was quite substandard. When the immigration officers took a photo for my Biometric there was a chair in the background and it is now clearly shown protruding from my back and also my face is not eve...

I need to also prove we have sufficient finance for 1 spouse (me) + 1-2 dependent (babies) Not as a dependent for visa purp...

Hi All, Apologies for the bad title. I cannot think of a better one. My husband is British and lived in UK for more than 20 years. I had been in here on student visa then on work visa for around 10 years, switched to spouse visa 2.5 years ago. I had just renewed and received my spouse visa and will ...

You may apply for extensions at any time before your leave expires. But take care not to apply too early as you may end up with insufficient leave to complete your qualifying period for ILR. Thank you, that's true I did not take in account of the ILR at the end. May I ask does Home office not add m...

Hi all, My current Spouse Visa will expire on 5th of December 2016. This was my first spouse visa application and it was granted for 2.5 yrs when I applied for it in 2014 (starting date 5th of June 2014). Before I got married I was living in the UK on company sponsored work visa, i applied for the s...

Ah, thank you though. Because I had came across this document and seem to be the only detailed document about what is considered exceptional absence. I understand spouse visa is a lot stricter and long term absence like this will be viewed very negatively. Just want to see if I interpreted it corre...

Thanks but I didn't find this document cover people on Spouse visa? Is this the correct document to refer to? Apologies, my misunderstanding of your reference to ILR. I'm no longer up to date with the spouse visa but I seem to recall absence limits are more strict than for ILR. Ah, thank you though...

Hi all I am currently living in the UK with my husband and had been granted a Spouse Visa in June 2014. This visa is due for renewal in December 2016. Currently I am planning to apply for the Indefinite Leave to Remain using the 5 years route in 2019. I am working for a UK company and they had ask m...

Application sent by Post: 3rd of May 2014 Received no update from Home office at all. It has been a whole week and I am abit wary now. Is there any way i can contact them to find out if my application had arrived? I know on the Guidance for FLR(M) there is some contact address if I wish to submit mo...

It reads as though they are asking about your current status so put the details of your entry on the current visa. Thanks for the response! So I should probably put down my most recently obtained Visa (Tier 2 Work visa sponsored by my current company) and my most recent entry dates to UK (holiday i...

Hi, I am trying to complete the FLR(M) form as a spouse of a British person. I had been in the UK for quite some years now, all on many many different visas. When I am filling the form I came across this part: 5.1 Did you enter the UK legally? Yes 5.2 If yes, when did you enter the UK? 5.3 In what c...

Hi everyone, I am planning to apply for a spouse visa using FLR(M) in the UK. My partner is a director of his own limited company based in the UK. He works as a contractor, so it is really a one man company he plays the director and the staff. I wish to include his income in my application to meet t...

My advice is always, always use Postal Orders. After about 10 visa apps we've had no payment issues, whilst if you look on here you don't have to look far to read tales of payments not taken woes, declined issues and bank refused payment unusual activity etc etc. There's a fair old surcharge but wh...
