It seems that the requirement is to provide specific NARIC evidence, that the degree was taught in English at or above the required (except if it was taken in the countries listed, which it wasn't).

Sorry but I am not the best person to provide options for your next steps.

Unfortunately I believe that you will have a problem. The list of countries that I was referring to, does not include Pakistan. You needed to provide the other NARIC document. This was the list from FM-SE "32. If the qualification was taken in one of the following countries, it will be assumed ...

I think this requirement may depend on where you took your degree. If it was taken in the UK for example then it is already deemed as taught in English. There are a list of such countries within the guidance (FM, English Requirement Appendix - which I cannot find right now but they are all obviously...

Depends on your circumstances. If your initial visa was for entry clearance and now you are applying for first FLR(M). I would suggest that the answer is, for example: First Extension as a partner (following an initial period of entry as a partner, or...) Zeppi PS I am not an expert so do not rely o...

See p1 fourth link - A2 English test required!

For FLR(M), I had the options:

Standard, Priority (10 day decision?) and Super Priority (24 hours or 24 Working hours - not sure)

Online application.

The word 'Premium' now only refers to London 'Premium' Lounge

There are specific exemptions for meeting English Language requirement . I.e. Aged over 65 / Disability / Exceptional Circumstances.

From my experience of FLR(M), the online application checklist also included : - Any relevant declarations or third-party consent to request verification checks (available during the application process ((i)A three part form (signed by applicant, partner anyone providing 3rd party support if applica...

Some would say that decision is made within 24 WORKING hours - So three days. I do not know the official line. Many are delayed.

Hi, I should have mentioned that I went for super priority 24hours (FLR(M)). Had appointment in morning and decision (by email) later in afternoon. Good Luck!

For info. Although my FLR(M) application was approved weeks ago and BRP card received. If I now log into to government website. https://visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/nextSteps It still says: "Further actions you must complete There are some more actions below that you must complete. Your app...

Hi, I had this question before I applied. Based on my experience for an FLR(M) online application submitted very early on 18/2/2019. Where I wanted an appointment within 2 weeks. Availability of Steria appointments: Local centres (salibury, reading, bristol) - no appointments available (in the two w...

Have not sent back yet. This was be the visa I obtained on Entry Clearance. Maybe process is different for yours. Guess you could go in and ask post office to do tracked delivery and then you will get a receipt with address on it. Then you should be able to follow online / print webpage when it show...

Actually was it mentioned in your approval email. I had this for the FLR(M) approval. So could be different in your case? Maybe you could phone up the UKVI helpline " If you previously held a Biometric Residence Permit (BRP) you must now return it to the Home Office as it is no longer valid. Yo...

Was there anything about returning BRP on your ILR letter granting approval?

Correction: Did not have to show ID when BRP was delivered.

Just one other change I noticed. The payment has increased since the end Jan 2019 from 1033.00 GBP to the current price of 1052.20 GBP "Payment XXXXXX application on a Family Route 1052.20 GBP" So maybe they have upped the fees and changed the Birth Certificate requirements??? Has anyone e...
