Hello friends Thanks so much for taking time to share your experience... I have been watching in the side lines and I am here for advice... 1. English language rqt... I came into UK in 2017 with IELTS C1 which is much higher than the A1/A2. Can I still use the same IELTs result? Most people said you can use the same result if you have gotten your visa based on it. I have tried to use the NARIC route but I cant get my Medium of Instruction Letter from my University because of CORONA Virus lockdown. Does anyone have experience using their old IELTS? Also the new online doesn't give an Option to use IELTS unless you say, your degree doesn't meet the English Language Requirement. If I say it doesn't meet the requirement, won't that be a lie? 2. Pls how do I answer these 2 questions? I also have a business in Nigeria. I have some landed property in Nigeria. Do I need to mention them since my husband is the sole sponsor? i) Do you or your included family member/s have any business interests outside of the UK? Please provide details below. ii)Do you or your included family member/s own any property outside of the UK? Please provide details below. |

Hello Spinardo.. thanks for taking out time to explain all these.. i have been away from here so thats why i'm just replying.. i do need more info though especially understanding the re-application period for me.. 1. My spousal visa expires June 2022.. so when is the best time to apply? April 2022? May 2022? Pardon my many questions .. 2. Naric UK.. do u mean u re-applied all over again with ur uni sending ur transcript and Medium Use of english or u just re-ordered? 3. Whats A2 Exams for? i used the normal NARIC UK certification with CEFR Level C1 and all.. after submitting the necessary naija uni docs.. 4. i Have now stayed 8 months here but not had my name on council tax with my wife.. just her name with her sis is on it..i'm working on getting that done this month... Also just contacted Thames Water to include my name on the bill too.. i thought i had time to get all these done.. i went back to Lagos for about 2months and NI Nos application in Jan 2020, Job search got me distracted.. Hope i'm not too late as i want to start gathering my docs by first getting my names on respective bills with my wife 5. Is there a clear UK Gov link for UK Spousal Visa application likes its clearly stated for the initial UK Spousal visa application? 6. Since i hadn't yet gotten a verified proof of address due to no name on council tax.. i haven't been able to open a traditional bank account.. been using Monzo .. can i use Monzo for bank statement for spousal visa extension? 7. Pls how do i manage to get my name on bills like Council Tax that comes 1ce in a year (March)... even when i get my name on council tax.. there will be no bill to show my name for 2020 cos it already came in March 2020 for the period March 2020 - February 2021? I'm in the process of opening a trad bank account though as i have a job now.. but feel i need to show that i have been n the UK for the time being i had Monzo Look forward to replies from everyone Spinardo: |

Minnienellie24: Hello everyone, My child arrived in the UK and was issued a British passport a few months after. We had a newborn this year who was also issued a British passport. Do I need to meet the requirement of £25,000 for my 2 children and my wife? Moreover, my wife 2.5 will expire in August 2021, Should I start applying on the 3rd of August to meet the 28 days rule? Sorry if this sounds like silly questions. Thanks |
Re: Applying For FLR After Your Initial UK Spouse Visa (extension) by Bourne007(m): 7:43am On May 20, 2020 |
Your kids don't need to apply as they are citizens. Requirements need to meet just your wife. It is advisable to submit your application for an extension as early as possible in the period of 28 days before your current Visa runs out deji2017: |

Re: Applying For FLR After Your Initial UK Spouse Visa (extension) by profemebee(m): 12:01am On May 24, 2020 |
brother.. God bless you beyond your expectations.. Also i read here that one can only apply within 28 days to the expiry date on the BRP.. Mine is 22nd of June 2022.. means i can put in my application from the 24th of May 2022 yeah?? However, the part of picking an appointment date 45 days earlier got me confused.. please can u explain further? Bourne007: |
Re: Applying For FLR After Your Initial UK Spouse Visa (extension) by Bourne007(m): 2:35pm On May 24, 2020 |
Yes at bolded. I'm sure you know and have seen it several times but you keep asking lol. The 45 days in advance is for the old premium service which is now closed. You can always get appointment same day, next day, within a week depending on what you want. Anymore questions before applying 2022, we go Happy to answer All the best profemebee: 1 Like |
Re: Applying For FLR After Your Initial UK Spouse Visa (extension) by profemebee(m): 12:56pm On May 26, 2020 |
osheyyy bro.. and the appointment is only booked after paying for the FLR M application which is when the actual 28days starts from Example.. if i'm applying/paying the fee May 31 2022.. my last docs for payslip, bank statement, etc shouldn't be earlier than May 3 2022 to meet up with 28 days rule yh.. while also ensuring May 31 2022 is also within 28days from expiry of BRP..

@Bourne007, it is the same link ooo. Will 1st of all ask if you are in Uk. I picked yes. Then ask if there is any pending application that I am yet to get a decision which won't be considered if I continue with this new one, I picked no and it continues. Trying it now again and it took me through the right route. Thanks. Bourne007: |

Any one renewed their passport in London recently? Spousal visa expires on the same day as passport towards the end of the year. I've applied for a renewal on the website but no appointment given, they said the embassy should be called to get one and surprise surprise not a single number on their website went through. Would appreciate any information that will help, thanks |

Lamakinde: Situation: Proof of joint address to renew a spouse visa. Background FLR spouse visa renewal next year Assessment: Please tell me if I have more than enough proof of joint address. I have got council tax, joint bank account and tenancy agreement. I dont know what else I can sign up for to get joint address. Thanks |
Re: Applying For FLR After Your Initial UK Spouse Visa (extension) by deept(m): 11:08am On Jul 23, 2020 |
deji2017: You must provide at least 6 items of correspondence, addressed to you and your partner jointly or in both your names. The dates of the items of correspondence should be spread evenly over the whole 2 years. They should be from at least 3 different sources. If you do not have enough items in your joint names, you may also provide items addressed to each of you individually if they show the same address for both of you. For example - 4 items of correspondence in joint names to the same address and 2 items addressed to each partner at the address. In total 8 items would need to be submitted. If you and your partner have no bills or correspondence in joint names, you will need to submit 12 items (6 each) of correspondence evidencing that you reside together at the same address. 1 Like |
