@CR001, is it not 28 days before 23 Aug as she had entered the country within 90 days from the date of issue?

Re: Tier 1 Dependent - Change of name

I have booked an appointment for the same day service this Saturday. And we realised the name changing process on a lot of entities is time consuming. And incase if we don't get her name changed on the bank statement, can we use my bank statements instead for the proof of funds? (My immigration hist...

Re: Tier 1 Dependent - Change of name

Yes, we are going to carry the Marriage Certificate as part of the regular documents and also we used the same certificate for her initial Tier1G dep visa and her last extension as well.

The only change from her previous applications is that she now carries her married name in her new passport.

Re: Tier 1 Dependent - Change of name

Thank you for your prompt replies. And we have made our final decision to go with early Tier 1 general extension under her married name. Apart from the normal extension documents, do we need to provide any additional documents because of the name change? Because we only have her new passport with th...

Re: Tier 1 Dependent - Change of name

ok cool.

I just got another question, I understand that if we apply for BRP TOC by post, we need to send passport along with the BRP card. Do we get passport the new BRP and the passport together? Or passport first and BRP later?

Also what is the average turnaround for BRP TOC by post?

Thanks

Great and I was thinking the same as well, thank you.

Also do you know what happens to the Health Surcharge, does it get refunded if we apply early?

Re: Tier 1 Dependent - Change of name

Thank you for your reply. So in your opinion, do you think we can now apply Tier 1 General extension on her new Married Name with which her BRP will be updated? Which option do you think is the best? 1) Apply BRP now -> £721 + Tier 1 G Extension Next year (£2381 + any Fee change) 2) Tier 1 Extension...

Re: Contractor SELF BILLING

The invoices should have your company details and the agency details that which is paying into your business account.

So you should create invoices billing your agency for the work you have done.

Re: ILR Fees

what visa your wife is applying???

Also it doesn't matter if you go together or separate, the fee will be same.

£1500 + £400 for ILR for main applicant if dependent is applying for ILR as well then double it.

If the dependent is applying for tier1 dep extension then her fee is £1,736 + £400.
