I have received ILR on the bases of 5 years on tier 2 general recently. My wife still needs to get tier 2 extension to complete her 5 years before she can apply for ILR. She has been in the uk for nearly 3 years so we would need another 3 years of extensions.
I am filling in the form online but confused about the below few questions. I have already trawled various online forums and there is mixed information on these. It would be great if someone can shed a light with their experience on this.
Is XXX's work in a shortage occupation?
- Yes
- No
What is the length of Mr Setu Bharatbhai Desai's Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS)?
- 3 years or less
- more than 3 years
What is the BRP expiry date? (this is when paying IHS)
If I enter the valid BRP expiry date which is for nearly 6 years I get asked to pay £2200 IHS and there is no option to manually change the amount it asks. I am unsure how I can pay the correct IHS charge (£1200) without putting in incorrect BRP expiry day
It would be great if someone can help with these questions.
