VISA validity from the date of issue to 3 months only?

Post by Dasavathar » Tue Jul 28, 2009 10:16 am

I heard that, once british high commission issue the VISA, they need to fly within 3 months of the VISA issue date or else the VISA will not be valid and it need to be done again.

IS that true?

I am in PSW and my VISA valid only upto March 2010 and i am planning to swith it to Tier 2 General in December 2009.

My wife got her dependent VISA in May 2009, now she is planning to come to UK only in October, is it ok for her to travel with the VISA issued in May 2009 or she need another one?
