I have a situation where I would appreciate some help.
I have a Tier 1 Entrepreneur Visa valid for another four months.
I just realised that my the dependant visa for my spouse (applied and issued at the same time as me) expires in a few weeks.
When it was originally granted, the difference was explained due to the fact that my spouse passport was only valid until Nov.
Now, on enquiring about how this is to be handled, I am told that I need to apply for an extension of the dependant's pass paying the full fee of 1000+. When granted, it would only be extended until the validity of my visa. So, in 2-3 months, I am going to have to spend the fees all over again.
I can't apply for renewal now as that would mean I'll not meet the residence requirement when I am ready for ILR, if they are efficient and process it quickly.
Can I apply for a ToC instead now on the basis that my spouse should have had the same leave as mine ?
If that is rejected, I could appeal.
And I assume by the time those processes are done, I am ready to apply for our joint renewal.
Are you allowed to make a fresh application (in this case renewal) when another is under processing (either the ToC or the appeal ?)
I am really short of time - so a fast reply appreciated.
