Re: Get passport delivered to a different address?

Sometimes you need to sign. Sometimes they just slip it in. Depends if the delivery man feels the letter box/house to be secure. I think it's secure because each and everyone has a locked mailbox. I'll give them a ring anyway before the interview and see what my options are. You have the option of ...

Accommodation - supporting documents.

Hi all,

My wife is already in the UK with me so this is for her extension. Just having a tenancy agreement for both our names is enough or do I have to have a letter from the letting agency also?

Re: can get an extension even though eligible for ILR?

Even if you are eligible for ILR they have no right stopping you from extending the current VISA. At the end of the day you are not doing anything illegal and they make more money from you. So it's a win win situation :D

Sorry I wanted to know about the British Passport. The application doesn't have a location to specify a delivery address in case you are not able to get stuff delivered to your current address.
