Spouse Visa exact date

Post by AGM23 » Tue Jun 11, 2024 2:51 pm

Greetings All,

My wife is already in UK on spouse visa, she arrived on 10th April 2022, on her BRP it says date of issue 07-02-2022 and Valid until 08-11-24, Question is when does she need to apply for extension exactly? I am assuming 28 days before 08-11-24? is this correct?

Or do i need to calculate 30 months when she first arrived on 10th April?

Confusion is whether to consider date on her BRP and count 30 months or date of first entry to UK?

Appreciate if someone can clarify? i did ask this question while ago but not sure if i got the clear answer or at least its been a while since,

Thank you.

She needs to apply anytime before the expiration of her current visa. Latest date would be 8/11/24. 2 days, 5 days, 15 days or 28 days earlier don't matter for you.
No sin in failing, you just have to try and try again!

Thanks Ticktack,

So the fact she arrived on 10th April 2022, I should not count that date + 30 months that would be up on 10/10/2024 and if I was to apply 28 days earlier then this should be around 12/09/2024 , and just apply before her leave expires as per BRP? i.e

Just conflicting as two dates are not the same, and don't want the issue of she being put on 10 Year ILR route just because we applied too early or too late.

Thank you for your input

To avoid shortfall for her ILR SET M, earliest date to apply will be 28days before completing 30 months in UK counted from the date she entered UK on spouse visa.

This will be from 12/09/2024 till the expiry of current leave.

Thank you Amazonian,

As always really appreciate your time.

Ok so as I understand, 30 months since the day of arrival in UK (10th April 2022) so any day from 12/09/2024 i should submit the application, and should disregarded the expiry date on BRP which is 08-11-2024, (difference of almost two months)

Thanks

Means earliest date to apply 12/09/2024 and latest date to apply 08/11/2024 which presumably is the expiry of current leave

Yes this is correct, 08/11/24 is Valid until date on BRP.

It does make sense now, thanks Amazonian
