Thanks Zahid for your reply. I too was surprised that many of the cases in the sticky notes for extn. were from the expiry date than from the application date even though they were 1 month of the recommended timeframe from HO. I was surprised and happy to see so many getting extns applying much earlier.zahid.ali.anwar wrote:The guidance note says you must not apply 28 days before your current visa expiry. people have differnt experiances here. They got extension from the date they submitted docs for extension, as some have got extension from their visa ending date.
The HO response is not consistent in this regard.
IMHO, you should apply in Mar2012. So that you are not short of your 5 year stay at the time of ILR.

Could anyone share their experience of submitting T1 G extn. application at different times.i.e., main applicant and family separately.
I met a solicitor today who said that it is a compulsory rule that all the applications should be sent together(main,spouse and kids), if the spouse and kids are in the UK and submitting main applicant's application is not allowed.
I am sure many people would have different cirucumstances for not able to file together.
Is it possible to submit my application excluding my whole family?
Awaiting for all your valuable replies.

The date of your leave expiring should be coincident with the date of their leave expiring. If, therefore, you apply for yourself but let their leave expire, they will not be able to make an application (as a valid application requires valid leave).
Unless............you are applying for an extension much earlier than the date of your current leave expiry date. Is that what is happening here?
Thanks Luca for your reply. Yes, my dependant's visa also expires the same time as mine. It is for employment reasons, i need to apply earlier.sushdmehta wrote:kans75 wrote:Hi
