Passport Expirey while application in Progress.

Post by kom » Wed Aug 30, 2017 9:35 am

Hi All Senior members.

I have applied for my T1 Entrepreneur Extension Visa on last January 2017 and still waiting for Visa. I have question related to MY Dependent Passport. My Wife Passport is going to expire in first week of November 2017 and without old passport i can not apply for my wife's Renewal Passport. I hope i will get result before Nov 2017 if not then what should i do to renew my wife's passport?Can you please advice me.

Thanks in Advance.

Write to UKVI explaining the situation. It is a good excuse for asking them to expedite your case.
Alternatively, ask them to return the passport for the purpose of renewal. As long as you don't travel out of UK, they do allow for the passport to be returned for such purposes. However, it will delay the processing of your application further.
Lastly, talk to you national embassy. Normally, she should be able to apply for a passport even much after it has expired. She can't travel anyway, so it is not going to matter too much unless there is some requirement in your country that she has to have a current passport all the time.

Can you ask your questions in your own topic please. This is not a general discussion thread nor is it about visa expiry!

You are welcome.

If you are going to ask for the passport back, please make sure you confirm in advance with HO that it will not be treated as withdrawal of an application.

With all due respect, my question is along with the original one. I did not ask any personal questions. It does not make sense to have several topics all with the same subject! The structure of the forum seems based on topics not personal profiles that every body has to post only on their walls.

what was your question ? Is it about passport expiry during the application process ? If so, it is related.
You mentioned visa expiry which has nothing to do with the original post.

The OP has asked about passport expiry and renewing the passport. How on earth is your question about visa expiry during application process relevant to the OP's question about PASSPORT EXPIRY!! Completely different sets of circumstances.

It is considered rude to tag onto other members topic regardless of how 'similar' you think your question is. It also creates confusion when members respond and most of the time the OPs query is lost due to members hijacking their topics.

If you aren't happy with my request for you to post in your own topic, feel free to find another forum where you can post willy nilly as you please, particularly in a complex visa category as Tier 1 Entrepreneur.
