We applied for spouse visa 2 years back and we won court decision last year.
Got a call last week to submit passport and was told it will take 2-3 weeks, they didn't ask for fees or anything. I got couple of questions :
1. What is IHS fee and do I need to pay it - no one asked for it and it wasn't in the letter?
2. I heard after visa has been issued you can only stay 2 weeks while it used to be 30 days, is that correct?
IHS fees are an health surcharge which needs to be paid with any application made after 6th April 2015, you applied before that so you don't have to pay it, if I'm not wrong it's 28 days to travel after visa granted, please share your timeline, when and where was your court hearing, date you received appeal determination and when you received call letter to submit passport, I am currently awaiting call letter that's why asking[/quote][/quote][/quote]
thanks for the reply, so I have to pay IHS I was wrong application was made end of april.
Application Date: 25/04/2015
Appeal : Nov/2015
Got call letter for passport submission : 07/03/2016.[/quote]
You applied in April 2014 or 2015?
