My tier 1 expires in May 2012. I have not been in UK yet. I am planning to be in UK starting April 1. My plan is to get there and apply for an extension the same week. I wanted to know if any of you experts think that there will be a problem with the approach i.e. that I apply for extension as soon as I get to UK. For one reason or the other, I have not been able to come to UK for living so far. However, I am planning to quit my job and move there with my family in the hope that I can get the extension. I will be using the proof of income from my USA employment. In terms of document, all I am hoping to need is the proof of funds and proof of earnings (I have the bank account and pay slips in order). Given that it is an extension, I have read that I don't need to submit the education, age and language proof again. I will really appreciate your feedback.
Will I need the Biometric Resident Card? If yes, how long does that take to get so that I can plan accordingly. Me and my family are taking a huge risk to get there just a month before my visa expiration, counting on an extension. I welcome your opinions and anything I should keep in mind.
Cheers.
