[joy_kavee]

Hi

I have got 3 months left for my passport to expire. I need to apply for extension for tier 1 G now.

Can i apply for extension on my current passport , due to expire in 3 months?

or

Shoud i get a new passport and apply for the visa?

I don't intend travelling anytime soon.

I can't find any statement from HO regarding the duration of the passport validity before applying for VISA. But there is one relevant topic

Transferring your visa to a new passport

i don't know but I heard somewhere that you need to have at least 6 months validity left on your passport
I'd suggest to get a new passport then apply
