Just to clarify, that does not always happen and it is perfectly acceptable for a visa to be issued from the date the decision made rather than expiry. The rule is very clear atleast in Croydon now: 1) Apply within 2 months of expiry - visa from date of expiry 2) before 2 months - visa from the dat...

here is an example which will make it clearer for you Say you work for 6 months (say Jan 2011 - Jun 2011) and then be unemployed for 6 months(Jul 2011 to Dec 2011) before your extension. Yes you can do this. But only if the time you worked meets the income criteria ie. the period Jan 2011 to Jun 201...

I agree with sushdmehta.

As long as you meet the income criteria ie. any 12 consecutive months in the last 15 months, then you are alright. So if you meet the income criteria with just 2 months income say 12 months ago, then you are still alright. You dont need to be in a job at time of application, just meet the criteria t...

The caseworkers should consider the gross dividend paid to the applicant. Where a breakdown of the dividend payments is given on the pay advice, the gross dividend is the net dividend payment plus the tax credit stated.

Increased Visa Fees

Did the proposed visa fees increase from 6th April get approved by Parliament. Dependent visas appeared to have doubled from £250 to £500, main applicant from £850 to £1000?

I find this a ridiculous increase for people doing extensions after 6th April 2011, but has it been passed?
