    time scale warning

    I read this on another forum, when applying for FLR or ILR, dont leave it to the last minute when applying for a visa, if there is a problem, the price is too high to pay.. ... dont let it happen to you

    "For various reasons we applied on the 2nd of April for LTR as my spouse using form FLR(M), and unfortunately my payment card rejected and I had to resend and this application was processed on the 21st April (31 days late). Hence at the time of the application my wife's LTR had expired. on this basis the application was rejected with no grounds to appeal, and she was told she must leave the country ASAP but with no deadline given."

    the cost, the visa fee you just paid, cost of air tickets and having to apply again, also being away from your wife/husband..

    thats kinda worrying...what is LTR anyway??? you can see they have two mistakes in application the form and the way of payment in the application form it ask you couple of times if the form you are using is right for you so maybe they think something is wrong with this people and another is they are already 31 days late...i think by the time they have open and send you a confirmation letter they will tell right there and then if something is missing in requirements makes me worry for i have just send my FLR application last april 20 then on the april 25 they send me letter telling that the application is now being process by a caseworker the payment has been withdrawn and it also says that it not possible to make enquiries in person about the progress of an application....my fiancee visa has already expired las may 7 were still waiting for the result....

    i think, they think LTR Leave To Remain, seeing he mentions spouse visa, he must have mean't ILR !!.

    i left my wifes ILR with only about 10 days to go, as i was waiting for advice about my stepson, but if my bank had refused my cred card, and it took IND days or a week to tell me, and i had to reapply, who knows

    oh i wouldn't worry, it took nearly 4 wks for my wife to get FLR, and it could be longer, as april will have been a busy month for them, with the new prices, and 'life in the uk' test, more paper work,,,

    you should know within 2 wks thou,,, oh i sent my wifes ILR on the 26th of april !!!

    good luck thou

    I'd like to joke at your expense, but I had a wisdom tooth out 2 years ago & have not been back to the dentist since

    I think the tooth wasn't the problem, it was the the lump of bone that came with it

    jb, enjoy the time off at home - i have been but its my last day sat on my - I've got a contract starting tomorrow, so its just solid work ahead and no holidays to look forward too

    I'm gonna have one happy accountant
