further leave to remain

Many individuals have a view of settlement in the United Kingdom. However, before they are able to do this and make an application for the same, they must satisfy the Immigration Rules and the requirements set by these. In a vast amount of cases, it is not possible to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain without having fulfilled leave on a limited basis for a specified period.

28 days before the expiry of a visa requiring an extension, the applicant can apply for the same. This application will fall within the Immigration Rules and can be made upon the basis of a relationship with a fiancé(e)/civil partner, spouse, unmarried partner, child, as a parent of a child present and settled here or a dependant parent or relative etc. Please contact DBS Law for more information upon this.

If the application is successful then the applicant will be granted an extension of stay for a specified period and subsequently receive a visa conferring the same.

If the application is unsuccessful then the applicant will receive a refusal letter explaining the reasons for refusal. We will assess the merits of this and talk you through the reasons for refusal advising you of your options at this stage.
