I sense here you wanted to say 'a new Tier 1E entry clearance' but I want to emphasis that you CANNOT apply for extension from outside the UK. Extension MUST be applied in the UKmarcnath wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2018 2:47 pmYou can apply for an extension from outside.
You current leave ends once you withdraw the application, so you need to make the new application within 14 days of the withdrawal. You will need to provide updated documents where there are time limits - maintenance funds, CAR, etc.
You will be applying as an overstayer. If you make some errors that leads to a refusal, you will not have an opportunity to submit a fresh application since this application is already an out-of-time application.
You have no idea how long the new application will take and you cannot travel to UK until it is decided. You need to consider the impact on your business of that.
In general, not a good idea to withdraw.
Write in once more together with any documentary evidence of your urgent matter and see if that helps.
There are no criteria about receiving a letter, so nothing to read from the fact that you have not got a letter. I consider it positive you have not received a complex letter.
Actually not. It was my initial impression too that extension can only be applied in country.
Thanks, that is as I thought. They would consider expediting cases.Malikwaheed wrote: ↑Tue Jan 16, 2018 5:51 pmAm sharing 1 part of letter here might it will help some one who have genuine family prob
Whilst I am unable to provide you with a timescale at present, please assure Mr Xxxx that we will notify him as soon as a decision has been made on his case.
Please be aware, while it is possible to expedite applications, we would respectfully ask that requests to expedite are limited to cases where there is a genuinely compelling or compassionate need to travel. For example, to allow the applicant to visit a critically ill relative.

However, https://www.gov.uk/tier-1-entrepreneur/extend-your-visa has this:
How to extend your visa if you’re outside the UK
Apply for a new a Tier 1 (Entrepreneur) visa online to extend your visa from outside the UK.
That implies that you can extend your Visa from outside the UK but the process to be used is the same as new application for T1E.
The immigration rules then applies the extension attributes for any application from a person who had last leave as a T1E visa holder. Which implies that such an application will be treated as a normal extension.
I have not been able to find anything else that specifically implies that extension cannot be made out of UK.
I can't say. But if I were to guess, it would be sent back. T1E applications are complex and I doubt if local embassies/consulates are equipped to evaluate those. So I suspect it will take longer rather than shorter.sunnyhameed wrote: ↑Wed Jan 17, 2018 9:59 pm
