Visa Extensions

When to Apply?

You must apply for a UK visa extension before your current visa expires. This is also referred to as a further leave to remain application and Lumine Solicitors can assist you in this process. Your application must be received by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) before your visa expires, as if it expires, you may be deemed an overstayer by the Home Office.

Eligibility

A few visas that you can get an extension for include:

  • Skilled worker visa 
  • Spouse visa 
  • Investor visa 
  • Ancestry visa 
  • Visitor visa

How Long Does it Take to Reach a Decision?

When applying for a visa extension, you should normally get a decision within 6–8 weeks of your application date, although there can be a backlog. For example, it may take around 16 weeks to reach a decision on skilled worker applications.
