Just received a call from the council and they were able to book me in for the next week. I panicked too early! It seems like there is a bit of a grace period like 2 weeks as the council officer said the deadline is the 16th Sep. Anyone who hasn't booked your ceremony and reaching the 3-month period...

Thanks CR001 for a quick reply

Personal reasons. It is my mistake I’m fully aware. Trying to deal with the consequence now.

Received the letter on 3rd June 2023

Hello, I hope you're well. Has anyone faced or been facing this issue? Unfortunately, my deadline is this Sunday and I have not booked a ceremony.. I'm waiting for a call back from my council but it could take up to 72 hours... or next week.. I tried calling 0808 164 8810 to reach FurtherNationality...

Hello, I hope you are well. Wondering if anyone can help shed some light on the paperwork required for the extension.. We are about to add my husband to the existing tenancy agreement. Wondering if it is okay to add him as an occupant, or does he have to be exclusively labeled as a tenant? the diffe...

Thank you! We got the spouse visa granted

Thank you! We got the spouse visa granted

Hi all, I hope you are well. My spouse visa application was submitted on 23rd March. I attended the Self Service biometric on 27th March and received a notification that my visa application was sent to the Decision Making Centre for processing. I submitted my supporting documents prior to the biomet...

Thank you!

Hopefully quick question.

I currently live in a one-bedroom flat by myself rented from a private landlord. Do we need to provide more than a tenancy agreement?

Please ignore my question around the mandatory document list. Got the idea from the gov website. Wondering if it’s easier to get my husband’s spouse visa approved when I become a British citizen or as an ILR holder.. or does it matter at all? Also does anyone know if a priority service is reinstated...

Yea the spousal visa application can be done by yourselves and get successful outcome. This forum is filled with people doing it themselves and getting visa granted. Should you have any questions or need clarification do not hesitate to ask. Fantastic. Thank you! Ah CR001, didn’t give enough inform...

Hi, I hope you're well! My husband and I have been in a long distance. He's finally moving back to the UK. His company has offered to sponsor his visa - a skilled worker route. However, we are considering an alternative route which is a spousal visa (dependent visa assuming they are the same?). I cu...

Hello, I hope you are well. I am currently in the process - application under review so attended the biometric appointment. When can I request a name change? first name change I cannot hold dual citizenship so will only be holding UK citizenship once issued. I will need to declare that I give up on ...

Thank you!

My mistake! Apologies.

Hi all, hope you are well.

Can I leave the country after submitting the application - without attending a biometric appointment so I will go on holiday for a month and attend the biometrics in January 2023?

FYI I was in the country in december 5 years ago

Your support will be greatly appreciated!
