No longer accepting Tier visa paper application

Post by kiri132 » Fri Dec 16, 2011 1:06 pm

http://www.workpermit.com/news/2011-12- ... ations.htm

Above link says, beginning 12 December 2011, all UK visa applications under the points-based immigration system will need to be made online. This includes all UK Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 4, and Tier 5 visa applications.

I cant find any relevant information on UKBA website.Please advise. I am looking for tier 1 general extension online application.

Thanks.

A "visa" can only be applied for from outside the UK. You can only apply for "leave to remain" from within the UK - so you are quoting the wrong link for queries regarding extension application. Also, the mention of "visa application centres (VAC)" in the quoted link is a clear give-away, which you missed noting before posting the query!

The link provided above by newbie_t (for your benefit) tells you how you may apply - including "not - online" method(s). Make an effort to read the information given. Alternatively, if you wish to use the "online" method, follow the link "Apply Online".
Life isn't fair, but you can be!
