Flr

[andypaul]

never filled in the FLR but we filled in spouse jobbie and the ILR and full name would be her new married name as thats now her legal title unless she wishes to use her old name. But best to go with whats ever on the passport and utlity bills and banks accounts statements which you have been saving ready for your ILR (start early mate its worth it for less hassle nearer the date).
Any other names you can put her old full name there, which is what we did.

Hannah Fiance visa expires on the 28th Feb '08.

I have compiled all of the releavant FLR Docs. However, I am waiting for 1 bank statement that was posted on 22nd Jan. It hasn'y arrived today im going to give it one more day at the most then send it off without.

Is this satisfactory time for FLR in your opinions?

Thanks

Stuart

i've not read the notes on FLR for a while, but does it mention you have t o send it a month b4 for a fiancee visa ,

flr you can apply for at anytime as far as i remember , as long as you have all your docs, as long as they get your app b4 your visa expires, it doesn't matter if it expires while they have it...

we thought you could only apply for the FLR 3 weeks before fiancee visa expired(i think i got that information from petes site??? maybe, sorry if thats wrong) but silver13 "paul & annilyn" applied straight after their wedding with 10 weeks left, so then we applied with 8 weeks till expiry

stuart you can only supply the latest documents you have, so no worries.
just post 3 months worth

as far as i'm aware, you can apply for FLR at anytime, as long as its before you current visa expires, as it's name states it's further leave to remain

while ILR You should not apply more than 4 weeks in advance of completing the relevant qualifying period for your application, 2 years for a spouse visa, 5 years for a workpermit ..

Just to clarify once Hannah has her FLR all sorted she can then leave and return to the UK without drama?

We are thinking about a return to Phil in April.

What form is the FLR in? Is it a sticker in the passport?

When we have her passport amended is that also in the form of a sticker in the passport somewhere, not actually on the info page of her passport? (If this is the case presumably her maiden name is still visable)

As always any help is appreciated.
