Volunteering whilst waiting for family extension visa

Post by chess2020 » Wed Aug 26, 2020 3:39 pm

Hello!

Could I please be advised whether my husband can do voluntary work while waiting for his visa? He is on his marriage visa and waiting for the 2.5 year extension. He is very bored sitting at home and not doing anything, and the covid delays everything... Thank you.

Work prohibitive visas don't allow paid/unpaid work.

Clarify - Is he on spouse visa and waiting for FLR(M) outcome? Because if so, on spouse visa there is no work restriction and if waiting for outcome of FLR(M) then section 3C in place and therefore maintains same right he has as on previous leave.
