thanks rezwan for your reply. just to clearify, you said "usually visas are issued post dated i.e from the expiry of your current ". does it mean, its actually not rule to issue post dated visa or its upt to case worker's discretion? and there is a chance that visa may be not post dated? if so then there is a big risk involved isn't it? if the visa validity date is from visa issue date then there is a huge risk of not getting 5 years of ILR rule. please advise.rizwan567 wrote:If you fulfill the extension criteria now then you should apply as soon as you can. I am 100% sure you will get it. I have personal experience of making before time application and they are all successfull. Just give any reason in your covering letter like travel arrangement, medical treatment, mortgage problem, job problem etc etc

Well I think you can't, purpose of an extension is to extend stay when current visa is going to expire. But if it is very important for you then you can use this point. HO hasn't mentioned anything about application time frame in immigration rules and regulation. If it is so then probably you can apply after consulting with some solicitor. In case HO refuses to issue visa, you can file a case against them that it is not mensioned anywhere in Tier1 immigration rules that one should only apply before 4 or 5 weeks to the expiry of current stay.nionlight wrote:hello all, i am in the uk in HSMP visa which is due to expire on october 2009. now my question is, if i apply now then if i get visa, will the visa be issued from october 2009 or will it be from the date of the isuue? if its from the date of issue it means if i apply now then i will not be fulfilling 5 years ILR rule. it mean i have to extand again after 3 years? but if i apply just before october then isn't it very risky? in case if visa is refused then i will not have any valid visa at that time? please advise experts.
Well I am not making any assumptions are guesses.

www.spammer.com/discuss/hsmpx/2355561/
Guy applied well in advance and he did get extension but not from visa expiry date but 3 months earlier than that.....
How many months earlier u applied and did u get extension from visa expiry date?
