I GOT QUESTION TO ASK AS WELL. MY WIFE WILL BE GOING WITH ME TO POE. HOW DO I MENTION HER IN MY APPOINTMENT PROCESS?
If your spouse visa expires in Jan 2013, then you cannot apply on 22nd October 2012. You need to apply 28 days before the expiry date of your spouse visa.
If your spouse visa expires on the 28th Jan 2013, then you can apply from the 1st of Jan 2013 till the 28th Jan 2013. The reason I am saying you can apply on the 28th is because the UKBA takes the date of the postal stamp as the date of the application.
Do you mean your wife will be accompanying you to the PEO as a companion for support ? I don't think the online form has an option to notify the UKBA. Why would the UKBA want to know this ? You can take a bus load of people if you wish, but after reaching the PEO, you need to follow the rules.
Also, posting in CAPS means YOU ARE SCREAMING in internet etiquette.
