Made redundant just two months before visa expiry

Post by jaango123 » Wed Jul 22, 2026 2:02 pm

Hi,

My current visa sponsored by employer is valid till September 24 2026 and my last date with the company is September 5. This was informed to me yesterday just 2 months before and has made my situation worse with a dependent spouse and school kids.

1. Does this mean I have only till September 5 legally in UK? Wont the company/home office give me 2 months time after the Visa expiry?
2. I have a meeting tomorrow with employer solicitor and can i raise the concern as I am completely confused what to do with my family in short span of time?
3. In worst case can I submit FLR visa by September 24th 2026? Is this a valid case for me?

1. You have until your visa expiry date.

2. You dont get additional time past your visa expiry date. The 60 days curtailment applies to those whose visas are valid for longer than 2 or 3 months.

3. What FLR do you belive you qualify for? How long have you been in the UK?

You either need to find another aponsor, a visa route you qualify for or you need to leave the UK by the date of bisa expiry.
