We booked, and paid for, a premium service appointment as soon as it became available, and before we had filled in the application forms. We then started filling in the application form on the website, but now I see that one of the steps for filling in the form on line is to make payments, which we ...

You should mention both passports in the application form. There is a section that asks for any other passport details. You’ll then provide copies of both passports with your documents. When your wife goes for her biometrics appointment, she would submit the passport that you are using to apply. Th...

Thank you very much for your reply. One other question: My wife has two passports, from two different countries. Does she need to provide both of them or only the main one she uses when she applies (and a copy of the second one if necessary)? (If it matters, she previously used the second passport t...

We are applying for a spouse visa renewal and I have some questions about the documents required that I was hoping someone on this forum would be able to answer: The rules say that documents have to be originals, not copies. Nowadays, many documents are issued in electronic form, so if I print them ...

I guess what I am getting it is that I don’t see what risk they are trying to mitigate by imposing this restriction?

Thank you.

I already booked the Premium Service Centre appointment in Croydon using the old IHS number before i realised she needed a new one.

Is this an issue or is it enough if we pay the surcharge again and bring evidence that we have paid, and the new IHS number, to the appointment?

My wife is trying to apply for a new Schengen visa (France ideally). However, her UK BRP (spouse of a British citizen) is expiring soon and the website says that she needs to have a UK residence permit valid for 90 days to apply (her BRP expires in September). We will renew her BRP eventually but cl...

My wife is applying to renew her spouse visa (I am a British citizen). I have some questions that I couldn’t find answers for on the government website. 1. Does she need to pay IHS again (she already paid it 2.5 years ago when she first applied)? 2. If so, does she need to get a new number or should...
