Hi, I am applying for Schengen visa from the UK via VFS to visit Iceland in February. I have a UK spouse visa and I'm employed. On VFS' page (for Iceland) ( https://visa.vfsglobal.com/one-pager/iceland/uk/english/ ) it says: --- 5. Proof of employment or studies - If employed o an employer’s letter ...

Thank you so much CR001!

Hi everyone, I'm applying to extend my spouse visa in a month and have been relearning the process all over again (my previous application was postal) thanks to all your helpful comments on the forums. I'm not great at navigating here though so I apologise if I ask any questions that have been answe...

Maybe your case delaying because of some error where HO might want your biometrics again. Maybe! If that's the case, I wish they contacted me about it instead of this radio silence! I've contacted our local MP and got a reply this Monday that they've contacted the Home Office. But nothing else sinc...

7 weeks passed, and we received a letter acknowledging our application and advising to have our biometrics taken. I assume it's a standard letter so I ignored the bit about biometrics. Does that acknowledgement letter contain some scanning barcodes on it. Yes it does but I received that already whe...

I got the letter last Friday, and on Monday (7weeks after biometrics) i got the documents back and Tuesday the BRP arrived. But mine was the spouse visa extension. You can always try to call them to ask how far is you application process already, you have nothing to lose. Good to hear someone else ...

Thanks both for your quick replies. It's been 9 weeks since my application+biometrics (I've made my application after gathering all docs and sent the docs+bio together within 2 days). I would hate my application to be cancelled but our wedding is more important (and expensive) than that. Is it norma...

Hi everyone. On 27th of Dec I've applied to switch from a business visa to spouse visa from the UK (Online, Non Priority). I've done my Biometrics the same day and posted all my documents. 7 weeks passed, and we received a letter acknowledging our application and advising to have our biometrics take...

What 'business visa' exactly is it that you are holding and its validity?

Is having a Turkish businessperson visa a problem in this situation?

It's a Turkish businessperson visa to work as a self employed business owner, it's not expiring for another 2 years.

In short: Do you have to change your BRP because of a name change even if you are applying for a spouse visa and it hasn't been 3 months yet? Hi everyone, I'm in the UK on a business visa and recently got married (less than 3 months ago), just got my name officially changed/got my new passport this...
