Followed your original videos and it helped immensely. Didn't use a solicitor. I'm a business owner and employee so had a tonne more documents to submit compared to the usual 6 months payslip route but it all came back positive. Took my time, watched your videos and trawled immigration forums. I paid for priority and had a response within 5 weeks and now have my wife from Bangladesh with me here in the UK ! May Allah reward you for these helpful step by steps.
@@RuksanaAhmed Just a question, I will be applying for extension in June Where do I come across the 3 declarations? You talked about , where do I Print it our from ?
Hi, please find parts 1, 2 & 3 here: visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/documents/family_consent.pdf And the spouse declaration here: visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/documents/family_declaration.pdf You will also come across links to them whilst filling out the application form.
Salam sis I followed your video and made the application for my sister in laws leave to remain and alhamdulillah it was successful. Thank you for taking your time and making the video.
Thank you so much! I remember during our first application we found this so helpful and I asked if you would be doing the extension video as well..I’m so glad you did. So kind of you to help others xx
Hi Ruksana, i can't describe in words how much we owe you. that was easier than going to a solicitor to do the application. you explained everything in plain English. This video and documents upload video were all i needed to go through the whole thing. Alhamdulillah we got the decision in less than 4 weeks. Thank you again. May Allah reward you and your family.
@@RuksanaAhmedHi ruksana . Thank you for your video . Could you please clarify more about one question, your current permission to be in the uk? Why you choose settlement and not family?
Ruksana, I just want to say thank you, you did a fantastic job with this walkthrough and I followed it exactly and renewed my visa without any problems and without hiring a solicitor. You are a star! Best of luck to your family with every step!
Hello sister thank you, for ur help can I please ask in family route section when it’s say dose the applicant have Childrens 18 years or under do we need to say yes or no, as me and my partner have one child who is born in uk after my first visa. He is British citizen
@@ahmadullahahmadi6995 i was quite confused too, i’m currently doing my application and my baby is 2 months so i have pressed Yes. It will then say if this child is added in this visa application i then pressed “No” and they will ask you why, i have said my child was born here in the uk and they are a british citizen. They will then ask you details of the child and where they are born so it will make sense after. Hope that helps.
Thank you Ruksana. It was a great help. I filled my wife's online application for visa extension watching your video. They gave visa in less then 4 weeks after Biometric appointment. Thanks alot
Oh wow, that is amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you and your wife 🎉🎉🎉!! It's great that you heard back so soon, I am soooo happy for you 😁😁😁!!
Ruksana, I just want to say thank you so much, your walkthrough video helped me so much and I followed it exactly and renewed my visa. I got the visa within a week which was amazing. May Allah bless you and your husband.
Thank you Ruksana for creating your 2021 Visa extension. I have made another donation to you. I know you are not doing this for money but just wanted to give a little back because you clearly spend a lot of time and efforts making this video series.
Hi, so sorry for the late reply. I am really behind with catching up with my comments. I just wanted to make sure I got back to yours as soon as I could to thank you so much for a second donation. I really do appreciate it!! You are very kind! 😊
Hi Ruksana, thank you so much for your videos. My husband’s visa was due for renewal and because of you we were able to file his application ourselves and as we had saved on solicitor fees, we paid for fast-track and his application was approved two days later. We could not have done this without you, thank you so much. We wish you and your family every happiness xx
Aww wow, that’s amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy to hear my videos were helpful and that the visa was successful and that you were able to save and get priority service 😁😁😁!!
Hi Ruksana, I just wanted to say thank you for posting this. There are a couple of ambiguous areas on the online form and this really helped. Visa extension received today.
Aww that’s amazing news!! I’m glad the video was able to clear some of those thing up. A huge congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you 😁😁😁!!
Hi ruksana, I am desperately waiting for your next video about ILR application. Applied for my previous visa application with help of your video and got it successfully. Grateful for that !
Hi Ruksana, thank you for taking the time to put out such a detailed and informative video. My wife is Indonesian and I’m Scottish…we had my wife’s first visa processed using ‘Citizens Advice’s immigration department. They did a good job but the fee was £900….eek!!! And, we still had to to gather all the the information. We need to start her extension application shortly and will definitely do it ourselves this time.
£900!! That’s the same as a solicitor. I thought citizen’s advice was free advice, that they just give you information, didn’t realise they had such services. None of them around us are ever open so I’ve never been. Unfortunately gathering all the information is always going to be on you whether you do it through a solicitor or not but at least when you get the help, you know that whatever you are submitting will be enough evidence. Whereas when I did it on my own I was never sure if it was. You pay mainly for that and for them to help with the form. It’s crazy how much it is!! That on top of the already extortionate fees for the visa and IHS 😰 I think you’ll deffo be able to do it on your own next time. You already have an idea of what sorts of documents you need to collect as well. Best of luck!! 🍀
Salaams to Ruksana and her husband. My wife and I followed this very descriptive, easy to follow video for her visa extension application for 2022 and we just received our approval. So we just wanted to thank you for helping us out :). Take care.
Well, I don't have words to thank you for the help you provided us with back in the 2018 application so this is the case now. We really appreciate the hard work you are up to. Thanks, Ruksana once again. One request If you could please make a video on the list of documents you provided would be much more helpful.
Aww, thank you so much for sticking by me this whole time. I have 8 videos on the supporting documents coming up (well 9 including the walkthrough of how to upload them). I will be uploading them twice a week starting from 12pm tomorrow so please keep a look out for those 😊
I’m here to say thank you to Ruksana, you really did a good job with your walkthrough and uploading of supporting documents. I followed you all the way. Can you believe this, I submitted my application on the 19/02/22 and attended the biometric appointment on the 12/03/22 and in four days that’s 16/03/22, I received an email from home office that my application has been successful. It was a shock to and my hubby. You’re such a good teacher. Thank you so much for your help. I will come again when it’s time to do ILR😂😂. No solicitor needed. God bless you😘
This is really helpful video.I done my application myself using your UA-cam video.I was waiting confidently bc of the video and I got accepted.thank you so much.
Hi Ruksana. My husband and I would like to say thank you for sharing the information about extension of spouse visa. It's really helpful information :) We wish you and your family all the best on the next part of your journey together ❤️
Aww thank you so so much!! That is super sweet of you 💕. I'm glad you've found the videos helpful! Best of luck with yours/your husband's application 🙏
I am always so grateful for your videos. I could not possibly have done this without you. Im on the second one. God Bless you for taking the time to help so many people.
@@RuksanaAhmed Hi Ruksana thank you for the video. But I need your actual help and more one to one advice. Please get back to me I will highly appreciate any further help from you. Jazakallahu khair.
Salaam Ruksana , me and my wife want thank you from our bottom of our hearts thank you so much for walking through this application that amazing way. My wife got her Visa with in 7 days may Allah make your whole family blessed you're wonderful person masha Allah
Thank you so much for this video! It is so helpful and clear and will be invaluable for us when we're filling out the next visa application for my husband :) Glad to hear it all went well for you both.
@@RuksanaAhmed just wanted to let you know we had our BRP appointment 3 weeks ago and just had the email today to say it was successful! :) Thanks so much for making these videos. Will look forward to seeing your ILR videos when we have to do our final application..! xx
Hi Ruksana. Hope you and your family are well. I just wanted to thank you for all of your uploads on Visa extension application. My application was approved this morning. Your vidoes were a massive help. Without it, I don't even know if I would have been able to do it. I'm so grateful to Allah I found your vidoes. Cheers. Have a great life. I'm sure so many people remember you in thier prayers because of your vidoes.
Hi Ruksana. Thankyou sooooo much for this. You really helped with husbands visa extension. Saved us £780 solicitor fee. And all he was going to do was fill out the application on husbands behalf. We never knew how easy the application form is. It even gives details in each section what we need to submit. We made a file and had everything scanned at the biometrics £79 and they did the biometrics n the scanning. All sent over and hubby got his extension. I wouldn't have known how easy it was if hadn't seen you video. Thankyou again xx
Aww that’s amazing news!! Congratulations to you and your husband on the visa 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy to hear it 😁😁😁!! Aww it’s true, a solicitor is really not needed, if you’re willing to put the time and effort in then you can easily save yourself a good chunk of money. Any saving is helpful, especially with how expensive all the fees are!
@@RuksanaAhmed once again thankyou. Your videos are so helpful and me and hubby now have the confidence to do it ourselves when the time comes for his indefinate remain. And yes your right any amount of saving is a bonus.
Thank you so much for all your help. We did all the processing by following exactly the same steps you mentioned. We submitted the documents on Monday and got the result on Thursday. Sooo happy. Thank you so much.
Amazing and informative video, thank you so much and thank you on behalf of everyone else you have helped. Always wishing you the best, thank you again.
Hey Ruksana, just wanted to say a big thank you to you. My husband and I followed your video for our extension and received the approval in 3 working days! We were shocked! Thanks so much
Finally, you’re a Star! Thank you so much for this, will be very helpful when the time comes. Always appreciated, thank you Ruks. Hope you are your family are all well.
I know right, this one took me soooooo long to get up. I was editing it for like 2 months, was very stressful! We're all well thanks, still in tier 3 where we live. Hope you're all ok too!
@@RuksanaAhmed nice seeing you again,unfortunately I came across your videos on UA-cam when my visa was already denied,since last year we applied for appeal we got a date since 5th of April last year but due to the covid 19 it was cancelled, till date no date yet please how long are we going to wait to receive another date from the court?
Ruksana I want to thank you and your family for another Successful Application. My wife has received yet another successful application (this time first renewal). Your video helped us in the first application in 2019 and again in 2022. This your straight forward and wonderful video has guided us all the way by The Grace of God. May God continue to Bless your marriage and family. Thank you so much. This video deserves a million views. See you on the next video for indefinite leave to remain.
Because the spouse visa is known actually called "family of a settled person visa" and if you remember back to the first application form, the first couple of questions on there were regarding the type of visa you are applying for and we chose "settlement, settlement, husband" as our answers
@@RuksanaAhmed I have a quick question I hope u will be answer .my visa 2.5years going expired on January even my son .which site or link we can apply?thanks
Thank you for being a blessing to me and my family...for some reasons everytime am about to apply for a UK visa, I get overwhelmed but your videos helped immensely, visa arrived 3 weeks...thank you
You can’t imagine how it is helpful to us , really appreciate your time and effort to make such a useful content, cannot wait for your upcoming videos about documents , many thanks Ruksana
Glad your video came up first for the spouse visa extension. I followed your advice for my husband’s first visa without using a legal firm and his application was successful. Thank you 🙏🏾
Hi Ruksana, Hope all is well Inshallah. Thank you so much for your detailed step by step video. We have all been looking forward to this. Hope you didn't find it too stressful gathering all the necessary documents. Really really appreciate it, so helpful and takes off so much worry for many of us. Wishing you both the best of luck Inshallah and looking forward to more of your videos.
Hey! We are good thank you, hope you are too! Aww it was more stressful making this video than it was making the application haha. I think because we have done it once before it was easier this time round, just slightly different in terms of documents and proving that we have lived together rather than that we are in a relationship but happy to share our journey with everyone! 😁
He did the IELTS B1 test which is the highest level. A2 is enough for the extension and if the applicant isn’t as confident with their English yet, that is the one I would recommend
He Ruks how’s you? Xxx I was wondering, at the end of our husbands final 2.5year spouse visa after the extension do we have to apply for the ILR indefinite leave to remain / British citizenship straight away? Is it the case that if we don’t they can’t stay in the country or can we wait a while save and apply? How does it work. Xxx
Thank you so much! You're such a big help to us..My son and I received our extension visa last week ... No solicitor just watching your video. Many thanks😘
So sorry for very late reply but I’ve not been on UA-cam for a long time!! Congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I’m so happy for you all, you can finally be a family again 😁😁😁!!
Salaams Ruksana, Ramadan mubarak. I just wanted to say thank you very much for making these videos. We applied for my wife’s visa extension using your videos & guidance and Alhamdullillah the application was successful after 7 days of attending the biometric appointment. You made it really easy for us and cant thank you enough. JazakAllah khair and All the best for the future.
Ramadan Mubarak! Aww, that's amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy to hear it and that it was a so quick as well 😁😁😁!!
Assalaamualaikum brother did you do priority visa, I'm doing my wife's extension next week thinking if I should do priority just incase its take long time due to Ukraine and Russia war
Wassalams brother, we went with the normal service. We receieved the BRP card 2 weeks after the biometric appointment. At the end of the application, it said it can take upto 2 months for the home office to respond. So not sure if it was quick for our application or whether they are now responding to everyone in a similar time frame. Hope this helps.
@@sinanduman8974 hello just a quick question, was it flr m application that you've applied for! I'm following Ruksana's video but she didn't mention which type of flr she was applying for.. thank you
Sister I did my spouse application 17 December they didnt let me know yet I’m worried just praying that Allah helps me n let me goto my husband ASAP it’s nearly 5 month I’m worried what should I do shall I send ap email
Oh wow, sorry to hear you’ve been waiting so long. There is some contact information for them in my description box. Maybe you should given them a call, there is a charge per min but can be worth it. Hope you hear back soon!!
Sister salam can u please show me the format how to send them email if u don’t mind me asking I wanto send them email they didn’t let me know yet yet it’s been nearly 6 month I applied spouse visa
It is better for you to call them and speak to them directly. You will only get a generic reply if you email them and it may not answer your question properly. It is a waste of time and money.
Hi Ruksana , just want to say a big thank you for this vid. My wife had her biometric appointment on 10th August and her visa was approved on the 06th September, without the fast track. Our circumstances were that we are living with my parents and have no utility bills in our name. Instead, we got a letter from my father stating our household arrangement in that the parents pay the utility bills and me and my partner cover household shopping bills including food and maintenance of the house. I also included hotel receipts of various family functions/days out combined with pictures. Additionally I included mine and my wife’s Ebay purchase history covering 2 years showing various items purchased. The bank statement showed my parents addresss which cross referenced the ebay purchases. I’m enjoying the updates of your growing family. Looking forward to your next video !!
Aww that's amazing news!! You made the application on my birthday ☺️. I am glad to hear you heard back so quickly 🎉🎉🎉!! A massive congratulations to you both!! I am really happy for you 😁😁😁!!
Thank you very much for this video. We followed your guidelines and my wife’s visa extension got approved today. Took 24 days since the biometric appointment. Saved us the solicitor’s fee😊 God bless you and all the success in your life.
Very helpful video. Had to apply for an extension n didn’t have a clue. Watched this video and no further information was needed. Extension was granted in 5 working days. Keep up the good work 👏
I don't know how thankful I am by watching your video. Because I got my spouse visa in 2018 only by following your video. I did exactly the same as you shown in the videos. And now, I have to extend my visa by August, and I am really very thankful to you. I will follow all the guidelines you have mentioned in the video. And I know I will get the extension for sure. God bless you dear X
Aww that’s so sweet!! Thank you so much for being a loyal follow for these last few years! I’m so glad you were able to get your visa the first time round and hopefully you will be able to again this time round 🙏🏼!! Best of luck to you both
UPDATE! My husbands visa extension was succesful! It literally took two weeks! Thank you so much for your videos and I pray and hope you get every happiness in the world xxx
Dear Ruksana Ahmed, My mrs visa got approved in 2 weeks. It would not have been possible without your walkthrough and advise. Many thanks and best wishes. Just a tip from my side , I used PDF scanner and another tool called combine pdf tool to combine all individual pdf pages into into 1 pdf file. Also you can convert jpeg file to pdf file and use pdf combine toot to merge. So in total I just used 23 pdf files. Thanks again to both of you. God bless.
Aww amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you and your mrs 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you both 😁😁😁!! Hehe, I know I had a lot of uploads but I am not very good with technology lol and I still wouldn't know how to do it with the way you mentioned lol but I really do appreciate it. I may have to look into it a bit more for the ILR application.
Salaam. Hope Ramadan going well for you and family? Thank you for making this video. I watched it when applying for my wife's visa extension, which was approved in two weeks, Alhamduillah.
Wasalaam, Ramadan Mubarak to you all also. It is going well thank you very much. I hope it’s the same for you. That’s amazing news!! Congratulations to the both of you 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so happy to hear it 😁😁😁.
Thanks for all your tips! I watched all videos to apply for my first visa application and now for my extension. I got the email from home office saying that my extension was successful after 6 weeks, really quick for non priority app. 😊
Assalam u alaikum sister rukhsana, thank u so much, I found this video very helpful and followed it for my spouse vissa extension. Alhamdulillah I got vissa straight after 10 days. The way u explained it, is very easy to understand, really appreciate your efforts, may allah give u ajar, peace and success in life, ameen. Thanks again.
Aww, so glad it has come out just in time for your. Supporting documents videos will be coming out twice weekly. Starting from tomorrow at 12pm so please keep a look out for those!! Hope all video are out in time for your application 🤞
Aww that’s amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! Thank you so much for sharing! It’s put a smile on my face, I am so so happy for for you 😁😁😁!!
Hi Ruksana, Thank you again for all the videos for the visa extension. I followed your videos for the initial application to bring my wife over from the US in 2019 and we were successful and we have just received the confirmation of the visa extension being successful as well. We followed your videos exactly and got a decision very quickly. We submitted our online application on 15th April, had the biometrics appointment on 5th May and received a decision on 20th May and we hadn't paid for priority, so very surprised to hear back so quickly! Thanks again for all the videos, they make the whole process so much easier. All the best to you and your family! Thanks, Rohan and Caitlin!
Aww that's amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you and Caitlin 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really really happy for you both, especially because it was so quick 😁😁😁!!
Hi. I've recently applied from Pakistan and the result is being awaited. Your videos in toto, esp. about relationship evidence have greatly helped me with the application. Much thanks! Your videos are always spot on and you have a beautiful way of explaining. You are a great teacher and even a greater human being. Keep up the good work!
Aww, thank you so much for the compliments and I am glad you have found my videos helpful and easy to understand. Aww, the waiting is the worst part because it takes so long. It should take around 3 months but don't worry if is longer, there are some delays with covid at the moment. Best of luck!
First thank you so much for your accurate highly recommended guidelines through videos.I about to get a professional for help for my visa extension (one asked £500 the other £1500).but I decide to believing u applying my self after I go through all your videos,guess what within two weeks exactly got my visa approved and it is today. Thank you so much and stay blessed 🙏🏻
Aww, that's amazing news!! I am glad you were able to save a little bit of money hehe. A massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you 😁😁😁!!
It is so so helpful..honestly..I have submitted my biometric on last 18th April 2021..n received BRP on 27th April..it was this quick..I watched ur video n prepared my docs.. ur an 😇angel..god bless 🙌
Aww, that is amazing news sis!! A massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you 😁😁😁!! Can't believe how quick it was for you guys as well, very lucky!
Hi Ruksana, I hope you and your family are well. I want to say a big thank, honestly, I was able to do my husband's visa extension by myself, because of you. I was so stressed, thinking I will make a mistake but surprisingly, we submitted our documents today i didnt uploaded online, i couldnt deal with stress anymore so i just paid and got them scanned at the appointment and we also received a response within 1 day to say it has been successful, we went through the priority service. May allah swt continue to bless you and give you health and keep you steadfast on the deen. Ameen :) x
Hi Ruksana, thank you so much for all your details. You helped me a lot on my first visa, and now I'm getting ready to extend. This is really helpful. Thank you again.
Your detailed step by step video played a significant part in approval of my Spousal Visa Extension application.. Submitted on November 5 th, received email on November 22nd, that it has been approved…( 2021)👍🙏🏻
Thank you so much Ruksana. Your videos helped with the renewal of my wife’s application. The application was deemed successful after a day of attending her appointment. Keep up the good work. ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you for your videos we watched them all. We completed our spouse visa extension application on 05/12/2021 ,did our biometrics on 31/12/2021and received our successful visa on 14/01/2022. Instead of uploading our documents we paid £49.00 for the scanning service which was really helpful. They are not allowed to scan photos, only documents, we took photos with us and we’re given a receipt saying so. You will be contacted if any of these are needed. Thanks again Paul and Susi
Aww wow, that’s great news!! Congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really really happy for you 😁😁😁!! Yeah, you can have them scanned at the centre for a fee. I did hear that they decide what you can upload/what’s necessary which put me off a little. I wanted to make sure I had as much evidence as possible on there so opted to do it myself. I’m not sure if I mentioned anything about a scanning service, I must have in my upload documents video but if not, I have replied to many comments about it
Thank you so much for your helpful videos for the UK spouse visa extension. I followed your video and got my wife's visa extension. Please upload the complete video of the ILR application form process as well. I wish you all the very best.... thanks again.😊
Thank you thank you Ruksana for your helpful video ☺️ I got approved this morning, just 4 days after my biometric appointment ☺️ God Bless you and your family always, cheers!! ❤
Salaam sister thanks for your videos I’m just about to go through this process as I got married in Pk recently I was gunna pay for a immigration solicitor but when I watched your videos I have decided to fill application in my self thanks
Ruksana I want to say a big thank you for all your help through your videos. You are truly God sent. God bless you. You made filling the online application easier for my husband and I. Thank you for sharing with us and all the effort you put into your videos. I am truly grateful. Me and my husband followed your steps and we successfully got his spouse extension within 3 weeks. Thank you so much Ruksana. 😁❤️
Aww wow, that is amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you and your partner 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you 😁😁😁!! That feeling really is amazing, isn't it? Hehe, and to feel that relief so soon after submitting must have been nice!
Hi Ruksana, you're honestly doing a great job, thank you so much for this video. It's precise and very comprehensive and I think we owe you a lot. Please, are you going to do an application walkthrough for ILR when the time comes?
Hello my lovely Ruksana. Looking forward to see your videos for the ILR. Did your husband take his test life in the UK. Or no yet? Thanks you God bless you all your family 🙏
@@RuksanaAhmedHello my lovely friend. PLEASE can you show us how to send all the documents for ILR when you are going to do for your husband please 🥺💗 Did your husband take his life in the UK test? How did it go ? Looking forward for your new videos about the ILR PLEASE 🙏🥺 GOOD BLESS YOU ALL YOUR FAMILY ❤
Thank you, glad you like it! The earliest you can apply for the visa is 28 days before the BRP card expired and the latest is the day before it expires.
Thank you so much. I applied Feb 7th and we got our answer 2 days later! Was a straight forward case but maybe that helps others with a timeline if they apply soon.
Aww, I've just replied to one of your other queries but I am so glad to hear everything worked out well in the end. Did you submit your documents on Thursday or Saturday in the end? A massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy to hear it, especially that it was so quick 😁😁😁!!
Hi Ruksana, thank you so much for taking the time to do this! You're truly amazing. I have a question, my visa expires 21/10 and I have a trip returning to the UK on 8/10. Can I make the online application before going on my trip and send out the paperwork after I come back or you recommend doing everything once I am back? Thanks!
Hi, glad you like the videos. You can start your application before you leave but I wouldn't submit anything until after you return in case it goes above the 28 days. You will just have to make sure you log into the UKVCAS website once a week. May just be easier to do it all once you return though.
I have been watching your videos and you are live saver.I have applied for my wife visa myself and you have saved us so much money on Solicitore fees.Keep up your brilliant and I wish you all the best
What type of residence permit or visa do you have 16:50. My Brp just mentions leave to Enter. Is this the right answer? Do I not have to mention spouse/ partner
Hi Ruksana, I normally do not leave any comments neither likes but your videos were so incredibly helpful and saved me from so much stress I've been in for the last few months before applying for my visa extension! I just have to leave a comment here with gratitude from me and my husband because this is so easy to do compared to the tremendous work you have done explaining all the subtleties of the visa application in such detail that all doubts disappear immediately. Just wanted to report, I followed all your instructions, paid an extra 800£ for the priority service to get a faster decision (you can now pay it while paying your visa fee filling your online application) and got the email with the decision on Monday, Aug 23 when my biometric appointment was just two days before, on Saturday, Aug 21! my new BPR card arrived on Wednesday, Aug 26! We wish you all the best!
Hi Maria, Thank you so much for leaving your lovely comment. I love hearing that my videos have been helpful, so I really appreciate you taking the time to leave one. Especially as you never normally do it. Anyway, a huge congratulations to you and your husband on getting your visa extension 🎉🎉🎉!! I am super happy for you 😁😁😁!! I am so glad to know they have started doing the priority service again and that you heard back so soon. Really does take the stress and anticipation away.
Hi Yasaman, I recently did my brother in laws application and there was two options at 1:05:10. One for a standard service and one for a priority service. Can’t remember what the prices difference was or how soon it said you would hear back or even if that was where Maria found it but it could be the same thing. They must have opened the priority service now that Covid is pretty much over
Thank you so much for helping us all with your vids. I appreciate time you have taken out to make this video. Looking forward to upcoming videos. You are the best ❤️ 😁 Wish you and your family the best. 😷
Aww thank you so much for your blessings! Of course we wish the same for you and your family also!! The supporting documents videos will be up twice weekly, starting 12pm tomorrow so please keep a look out for those 😊.
Hi Ruksana, Thank you for such an informative video walkthrough. It's quite overwhelming to see how much they require this time, even the first application was not this complex. Anyway I'm eagerly awaiting the video which provides the exact requirements of supporting documents, because I am scheduled to submit my wife's extension application by mid February, and am nervous about the process, especially as I've just began looking at the application process a few days ago.
Hey, Aww I know it can seem really stressful but you will be fine, I'm sure! I have 10 videos in total with regards to the supporting documents coming up which I plan on uploading twice weekly starting tomorrow at 12pm so hopefully they should all be up in time for you 🤞
Perfect timing !! thank you so much for the video. Have you had your decision back ? only thing am struggling on is the supporting documents. She hardly has anything on her name, apart from her license & bank. I look forward to the supporting documents video. Thanks again.
Aww, I hope the supporting documents come out in time for you. I will be uploading them twice weekly starting from 12pm tomorrow so please keep a look out for those (there are 8 videos before a walkthrough of me uploading them onto the website). Hmm, I have no doubt many will be in a similar situation to you. Can you see if you can get a letter for her from he dr/dentist. I know it might prove to be difficult at the moment but give them a call and see what they can do. Also, maybe see if you can get her onto the bills or something as a joint account holder so that you have at least letters from the energy/water companies with both your names on it, even if they are really recent.
You’re absolutely right and I might give his GP a call tomorrow about a letter! Has your extension visa been accepted? They’ve stopped the fast track service because of covid, so hoping the turn around for the visa is quick .
We applied completed our biometric on the 12th of Jan 2022 and received our decision on the 25th of Jan 2022. We took the standard service but it was shockingly quick . A big thanks to you Rukhsana. This walkthrough was well detailed and so easy to understand and follow. May Allah make the ILR process easy for you, will be tuned in for that video aswell.
Ameen!! Thank you so much for your duas!! But more importantly and massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you and for it to be that quick too, that's amazing 😁😁😁!!
Wow thats amazing!! MA congratulations!! My BRP expires on the 13 of May, can I submit application now & book a biometric apt for 13 of April? I can get my documents all ready by then & it a month before expiration that you have to apply. Right?
@@zainabkhan9142 you can apply from 28 days before it expires. But please make sure it’s exactly 28 days before else the application might get rejected. Please submit the online form strictly on the 28 days or after mark.
You can technically apply for an extension visa after 30 months (not the 32 months that I always recommend, ie 28 days before expiry) but if for any reasons (having to travel outside the uk often etc) you don’t end up with a full 5 years total for ILR then your application can be rejected so I always say stay safe and apply 28 days before at the earliest and then you should have no issues for ILR
@@RuksanaAhmed Hi Ruksana Thank you very much for all your videos.It has helped me so much to have a clear idea of what to expect during the application process. I am a little bit confused about this 33 months leave to enter spouse visa and when will be the correct time to apply for my extension visa from UK. My visa is valid from 07/11/2019 and valid until 07/08/2022. Please do help with some insights that when is the right time for me to apply.Thanks in advance.
Hi Ruksana, Thank for all your videos. Quick question: After BRP appointment and submitting application, when do you receive an acknowledgement letter from Home Office ?
Hey, it can be days or weeks or never. You don’t always receive one unfortunately but we got one to say they received our application just a few days later.
Thank Ruks for your video. It immesely helped me. Just a few tips for other viwers, you can scan with Onedrive scan option and upload it to your personal cloud. Also i got Biometric appointment for free, it was £125 for most days but i found few slots that were free, i am not sure why it is free but i will not decline anything free. Good luck.
Aww so glad you found the videos helpful! Thanks so much for the tip on scanning via one drive, I would never have thought of that. I’ve now also found a way of uploading photos on one documents rather than one at a time like I did. Oh well, will have to share that on the next application. Yes, you can get free appointments at core centre only. I’m sure I mentioned it somewhere on one of my videos but that’s great that you were able to find one!!
Hi Ruksana, I'm very grateful for your advice. My wife's visa extension was successful. You are much better than any lawyer.
Aww thank you so much!! A massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy to hear it 😁😁😁!!
hello did you still pay for IHS for your dependent?
Followed your original videos and it helped immensely. Didn't use a solicitor. I'm a business owner and employee so had a tonne more documents to submit compared to the usual 6 months payslip route but it all came back positive. Took my time, watched your videos and trawled immigration forums. I paid for priority and had a response within 5 weeks and now have my wife from Bangladesh with me here in the UK ! May Allah reward you for these helpful step by steps.
Aww a massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! So glad you have found my videos helpful, I am so happy for you 😁😁😁!!
@@RuksanaAhmed
Just a question, I will be applying for extension in June
Where do I come across the 3 declarations? You talked about , where do I Print it our from ?
Hi please can you forward the list of documents required for self employed pleade
Hi, please find parts 1, 2 & 3 here: visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/documents/family_consent.pdf
And the spouse declaration here: visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/documents/family_declaration.pdf
You will also come across links to them whilst filling out the application form.
Hi, I’m not sure exactly what documents you need to provide but you will need to show 12 months worth of income when self employed.
Salam sis I followed your video and made the application for my sister in laws leave to remain and alhamdulillah it was successful. Thank you for taking your time and making the video.
Aww wow!! Congratulations to your sister in law 🎉🎉🎉!! And a big well done to you for doing her application 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼!! I’m really happy for her 😁😁😁
Thank you so much! I remember during our first application we found this so helpful and I asked if you would be doing the extension video as well..I’m so glad you did. So kind of you to help others xx
Aww no problem at all!! It was the worst video I have ever edited but I am glad people appreciate it 😊
Hi Ruksana, i can't describe in words how much we owe you. that was easier than going to a solicitor to do the application. you explained everything in plain English. This video and documents upload video were all i needed to go through the whole thing. Alhamdulillah we got the decision in less than 4 weeks. Thank you again. May Allah reward you and your family.
Thanks for watching.

@@RuksanaAhmedHi ruksana . Thank you for your video . Could you please clarify more about one question, your current permission to be in the uk? Why you choose settlement and not family?
@@abdelhamidmouissi1517I also have same question
Ruksana, I just want to say thank you, you did a fantastic job with this walkthrough and I followed it exactly and renewed my visa without any problems and without hiring a solicitor. You are a star! Best of luck to your family with every step!
Aww, a massive congratulations to you and your spouse 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy to hear it 😁😁😁!!
Agreed
Thank you!! ☺️
Hello sister thank you, for ur help can I please ask in family route section when it’s say dose the applicant have Childrens 18 years or under do we need to say yes or no, as me and my partner have one child who is born in uk after my first visa. He is British citizen
@@ahmadullahahmadi6995 i was quite confused too, i’m currently doing my application and my baby is 2 months so i have pressed Yes. It will then say if this child is added in this visa application i then pressed “No” and they will ask you why, i have said my child was born here in the uk and they are a british citizen. They will then ask you details of the child and where they are born so it will make sense after.
Hope that helps.
Thank you Ruksana. It was a great help. I filled my wife's online application for visa extension watching your video. They gave visa in less then 4 weeks after Biometric appointment. Thanks alot
Oh wow, that is amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you and your wife 🎉🎉🎉!! It's great that you heard back so soon, I am soooo happy for you 😁😁😁!!
Good
My Brp expires in may 2022, when should i follow this process for a renewal?
April 2022
Ruksana, I just want to say thank you so much, your walkthrough video helped me so much and I followed it exactly and renewed my visa. I got the visa within a week which was amazing. May Allah bless you and your husband.
Aww that was super quick! Amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am very happy to hear it 😁😁😁!!
Thank you Ruksana for creating your 2021 Visa extension. I have made another donation to you. I know you are not doing this for money but just wanted to give a little back because you clearly spend a lot of time and efforts making this video series.
Hi, so sorry for the late reply. I am really behind with catching up with my comments. I just wanted to make sure I got back to yours as soon as I could to thank you so much for a second donation. I really do appreciate it!! You are very kind! 😊
Your videos take so much of the stress and ambiguity out of the whole application process. A big thank you! Wish you well
Aww thank you, I’m glad they have helped 😊
Hi Ruksana, thank you so much for your videos. My husband’s visa was due for renewal and because of you we were able to file his application ourselves and as we had saved on solicitor fees, we paid for fast-track and his application was approved two days later. We could not have done this without you, thank you so much. We wish you and your family every happiness xx
Aww wow, that’s amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy to hear my videos were helpful and that the visa was successful and that you were able to save and get priority service 😁😁😁!!
Hi Ruksana, I just wanted to say thank you for posting this. There are a couple of ambiguous areas on the online form and this really helped. Visa extension received today.
Aww that’s amazing news!! I’m glad the video was able to clear some of those thing up. A huge congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you 😁😁😁!!
Hi ruksana,
I am desperately waiting for your next video about ILR application. Applied for my previous visa application with help of your video and got it successfully. Grateful for that !
Aww you’re very welcome. I have not even made the application myself. They will come in time
With your help I was able to renew my wife's visa extension, jazakallah for uploading this video sister.
Aww congratulations on your wife's extension visa 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so glad to hear you have found my video helpful 😁😁😁!!
Hi Ruksana, thank you for taking the time to put out such a detailed and informative video. My wife is Indonesian and I’m Scottish…we had my wife’s first visa processed using ‘Citizens Advice’s immigration department. They did a good job but the fee was £900….eek!!! And, we still had to to gather all the the information. We need to start her extension application shortly and will definitely do it ourselves this time.
£900!! That’s the same as a solicitor. I thought citizen’s advice was free advice, that they just give you information, didn’t realise they had such services. None of them around us are ever open so I’ve never been.
Unfortunately gathering all the information is always going to be on you whether you do it through a solicitor or not but at least when you get the help, you know that whatever you are submitting will be enough evidence. Whereas when I did it on my own I was never sure if it was. You pay mainly for that and for them to help with the form. It’s crazy how much it is!! That on top of the already extortionate fees for the visa and IHS 😰
I think you’ll deffo be able to do it on your own next time. You already have an idea of what sorts of documents you need to collect as well. Best of luck!! 🍀
Salaams to Ruksana and her husband. My wife and I followed this very descriptive, easy to follow video for her visa extension application for 2022 and we just received our approval. So we just wanted to thank you for helping us out :). Take care.
Aww that’s amazing news!! Congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so happy to hear it 😁😁😁!!
Well, I don't have words to thank you for the help you provided us with back in the 2018 application so this is the case now. We really appreciate the hard work you are up to. Thanks, Ruksana once again. One request If you could please make a video on the list of documents you provided would be much more helpful.
Aww, thank you so much for sticking by me this whole time. I have 8 videos on the supporting documents coming up (well 9 including the walkthrough of how to upload them). I will be uploading them twice a week starting from 12pm tomorrow so please keep a look out for those 😊
I’m here to say thank you to Ruksana, you really did a good job with your walkthrough and uploading of supporting documents. I followed you all the way. Can you believe this, I submitted my application on the 19/02/22 and attended the biometric appointment on the 12/03/22 and in four days that’s 16/03/22, I received an email from home office that my application has been successful. It was a shock to and my hubby. You’re such a good teacher. Thank you so much for your help. I will come again when it’s time to do ILR😂😂. No solicitor needed. God bless you😘
Oh wow, that was super quick!! A huge congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy for you 😁😁😁!!

Hi Ruksana. Thankyou sooooo much for this. You really helped with husbands visa extension. Saved us £780 solicitor fee. And all he was going to do was fill out the application on husbands behalf.

We made a file and had everything scanned at the biometrics £79 and they did the biometrics n the scanning. All sent over and hubby got his extension. I wouldn't have known how easy it was if hadn't seen you video. Thankyou again xx

Hi @Ruksana
What type of Visa leave to enter or remain or other permission do you have to be in the UK?
Why did you choose Sattlement?
Thanks
In this section should be Family/Spouse. Settlement for ILR process.
Because the spouse visa is known actually called "family of a settled person visa" and if you remember back to the first application form, the first couple of questions on there were regarding the type of visa you are applying for and we chose "settlement, settlement, husband" as our answers
@@RuksanaAhmed I have a quick question I hope u will be answer .my visa 2.5years going expired on January even my son .which site or link we can apply?thanks
This is the link you need to follow visas-immigration.service.gov.uk/product/family-routes

Hope you didn't find it too stressful gathering all the necessary documents. Really really appreciate it, so helpful and takes off so much worry for many of us. Wishing you both the best of luck Inshallah and looking forward to more of your videos.
Hey! We are good thank you, hope you are too! Aww it was more stressful making this video than it was making the application haha. I think because we have done it once before it was easier this time round, just slightly different in terms of documents and proving that we have lived together rather than that we are in a relationship but happy to share our journey with everyone! 😁
@@RuksanaAhmed which test ur husband have given for extended visa?
He did the IELTS B1 test which is the highest level. A2 is enough for the extension and if the applicant isn’t as confident with their English yet, that is the one I would recommend
He Ruks how’s you? Xxx I was wondering, at the end of our husbands final 2.5year spouse visa after the extension do we have to apply for the ILR indefinite leave to remain / British citizenship straight away? Is it the case that if we don’t they can’t stay in the country or can we wait a while save and apply? How does it work. Xxx
Thank you so much! You're such a big help to us..My son and I received our extension visa last week ... No solicitor just watching your video. Many thanks😘

Wassalams brother, we went with the normal service. We receieved the BRP card 2 weeks after the biometric appointment. At the end of the application, it said it can take upto 2 months for the home office to respond. So not sure if it was quick for our application or whether they are now responding to everyone in a similar time frame. Hope this helps.

Sister salam can u please show me the format how to send them email if u don’t mind me asking I wanto send them email they didn’t let me know yet yet it’s been nearly 6 month I applied spouse visa
It is better for you to call them and speak to them directly. You will only get a generic reply if you email them and it may not answer your question properly. It is a waste of time and money.
Hi Ruksana , just want to say a big thank you for this vid. My wife had her biometric appointment on 10th August and her visa was approved on the 06th September, without the fast track.
Our circumstances were that we are living with my parents and have no utility bills in our name.
Instead, we got a letter from my father stating our household arrangement in that the parents pay the utility bills and me and my partner cover household shopping bills including food and maintenance of the house. I also included hotel receipts of various family functions/days out combined with pictures.
Additionally I included mine and my wife’s Ebay purchase history covering 2 years showing various items purchased. The bank statement showed my parents addresss which cross referenced the ebay purchases. I’m enjoying the updates of your growing family. Looking forward to your next video !!
Aww that's amazing news!! You made the application on my birthday ☺️. I am glad to hear you heard back so quickly 🎉🎉🎉!! A massive congratulations to you both!! I am really happy for you 😁😁😁!!

Hi Ruksana,
Thank you again for all the videos for the visa extension. I followed your videos for the initial application to bring my wife over from the US in 2019 and we were successful and we have just received the confirmation of the visa extension being successful as well. We followed your videos exactly and got a decision very quickly. We submitted our online application on 15th April, had the biometrics appointment on 5th May and received a decision on 20th May and we hadn't paid for priority, so very surprised to hear back so quickly!
Thanks again for all the videos, they make the whole process so much easier.
All the best to you and your family!
Thanks, Rohan and Caitlin!
Aww that's amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you and Caitlin 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really really happy for you both, especially because it was so quick 😁😁😁!!
Hi. I've recently applied from Pakistan and the result is being awaited. Your videos in toto, esp. about relationship evidence have greatly helped me with the application. Much thanks! Your videos are always spot on and you have a beautiful way of explaining. You are a great teacher and even a greater human being. Keep up the good work!
Aww, thank you so much for the compliments and I am glad you have found my videos helpful and easy to understand. Aww, the waiting is the worst part because it takes so long. It should take around 3 months but don't worry if is longer, there are some delays with covid at the moment. Best of luck!
@@RuksanaAhmed Thankyou! Yeah, the wait is never easy but hope is never all lost until you're in queue.

I want to say a big thank, honestly, I was able to do my husband's visa extension by myself, because of you.
I was so stressed, thinking I will make a mistake but surprisingly, we submitted our documents today i didnt uploaded online, i couldnt deal with stress anymore so i just paid and got them scanned at the appointment and we also received a response within 1 day to say it has been successful, we went through the priority service.
May allah swt continue to bless you and give you health and keep you steadfast on the deen. Ameen :) x

Thank you for your videos we watched them all.
We completed our spouse visa extension application on 05/12/2021 ,did our biometrics on 31/12/2021and received our successful visa on 14/01/2022. Instead of uploading our documents we paid £49.00 for the scanning service which was really helpful. They are not allowed to scan photos, only documents, we took photos with us and we’re given a receipt saying so. You will be contacted if any of these are needed. Thanks again Paul and Susi
Aww wow, that’s great news!! Congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really really happy for you 😁😁😁!!
Yeah, you can have them scanned at the centre for a fee. I did hear that they decide what you can upload/what’s necessary which put me off a little. I wanted to make sure I had as much evidence as possible on there so opted to do it myself.
I’m not sure if I mentioned anything about a scanning service, I must have in my upload documents video but if not, I have replied to many comments about it
Thank you so much for your helpful videos for the UK spouse visa extension. I followed your video and got my wife's visa extension. Please upload the complete video of the ILR application form process as well. I wish you all the very best.... thanks again.😊
Aww congratulations to you both on the extension application 🎉🎉🎉. I have already made a video on the ILR online application form 😂
Thank you thank you Ruksana for your helpful video ☺️ I got approved this morning, just 4 days after my biometric appointment ☺️ God Bless you and your family always, cheers!! ❤
Aww wow, 4 days!! That's amazing!! Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so happy to hear my videos have been helpful! 😁😁😁
So helpful, thank you, my wife’s spouse extension visa is due later in the year, really helped us, thanks again 😀
Aww no problem! Best of luck! 🙏🏼

Aww wow, that is amazing news!! A huge congratulations to you and your partner 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you 😁😁😁!! That feeling really is amazing, isn't it? Hehe, and to feel that relief so soon after submitting must have been nice!
Hi Ruksana, you're honestly doing a great job, thank you so much for this video. It's precise and very comprehensive and I think we owe you a lot. Please, are you going to do an application walkthrough for ILR when the time comes?
Thank you so much!
Yes, I really hope to make the videos for ILR when the times comes. Please keep watching
Hello my lovely Ruksana. Looking forward to see your videos for the ILR.
Did your husband take his test life in the UK. Or no yet?
Thanks you
God bless you all your family 🙏
@@RuksanaAhmedHello my lovely friend. PLEASE can you show us how to send all the documents for ILR when you are going to do for your husband please 🥺💗
Did your husband take his life in the UK test? How did it go ?
Looking forward for your new videos about the ILR
PLEASE 🙏🥺
GOOD BLESS YOU ALL YOUR FAMILY ❤
Great videos! Loving the content on your channel. When is the best time to apply before expiry?
Thank you, glad you like it! The earliest you can apply for the visa is 28 days before the BRP card expired and the latest is the day before it expires.
I am looking forward for videos regarding supporting documents , visa extension, highly appreciate for your help and many thanks Ruksana
Aww thank you for watching 😊
Visa was successful first time thanks to your video
Aww that's amazing news!! A massive congratulations to you both🎉🎉🎉!! I am so happy for you 😁😁😁!!
Hi ruksana hope you are well . Thank you for your help ! My husband got his visa 🙏🏾 thx again
Aww that’s amazing news!! Congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so happy for you 😁😁😁!!
Thank you so much. I applied Feb 7th and we got our answer 2 days later! Was a straight forward case but maybe that helps others with a timeline if they apply soon.
Aww, I've just replied to one of your other queries but I am so glad to hear everything worked out well in the end. Did you submit your documents on Thursday or Saturday in the end? A massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy to hear it, especially that it was so quick 😁😁😁!!
This breaks the process down in the easiest way possible. Thank you so much for your help. I'm always a bit fan of your channel
Aww thank you so much!! Glad you like the video!
Hi Ruksana, thank you so much for taking the time to do this! You're truly amazing. I have a question, my visa expires 21/10 and I have a trip returning to the UK on 8/10. Can I make the online application before going on my trip and send out the paperwork after I come back or you recommend doing everything once I am back? Thanks!
Hi, glad you like the videos. You can start your application before you leave but I wouldn't submit anything until after you return in case it goes above the 28 days. You will just have to make sure you log into the UKVCAS website once a week. May just be easier to do it all once you return though.
I have been watching your videos and you are live saver.I have applied for my wife visa myself and you have saved us so much money on Solicitore fees.Keep up your brilliant and I wish you all the best
What type of residence permit or visa do you have 16:50. My Brp just mentions leave to Enter. Is this the right answer? Do I not have to mention spouse/ partner
@fisnikuritvana what have you wrote if you filled the application recently..Have you received your decision
Aww thank you so much. Glad to have helped ☺️
Hi, I’ve replied to this in a comment you made in another video. Sorry if I’m too late
Hi Ruksana, I normally do not leave any comments neither likes but your videos were so incredibly helpful and saved me from so much stress I've been in for the last few months before applying for my visa extension! I just have to leave a comment here with gratitude from me and my husband because this is so easy to do compared to the tremendous work you have done explaining all the subtleties of the visa application in such detail that all doubts disappear immediately.
Just wanted to report, I followed all your instructions, paid an extra 800£ for the priority service to get a faster decision (you can now pay it while paying your visa fee filling your online application) and got the email with the decision on Monday, Aug 23 when my biometric appointment was just two days before, on Saturday, Aug 21! my new BPR card arrived on Wednesday, Aug 26! We wish you all the best!
Hi Maria, Thank you so much for leaving your lovely comment. I love hearing that my videos have been helpful, so I really appreciate you taking the time to leave one. Especially as you never normally do it.
Anyway, a huge congratulations to you and your husband on getting your visa extension 🎉🎉🎉!! I am super happy for you 😁😁😁!! I am so glad to know they have started doing the priority service again and that you heard back so soon. Really does take the stress and anticipation away.
Hi Maria, I have a question if you can help me please, did the priority option appear along with the options in 1:05'' ?? Thank you
Hi Yasaman, I recently did my brother in laws application and there was two options at 1:05:10. One for a standard service and one for a priority service. Can’t remember what the prices difference was or how soon it said you would hear back or even if that was where Maria found it but it could be the same thing. They must have opened the priority service now that Covid is pretty much over
Hey thank you for replying l got my visa ❤thank you. I followed what you showed us so thank you so much
That is amazing news!! A massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am really happy to hear it 😁😁😁!!
Thank you so much for helping us all with your vids. I appreciate time you have taken out to make this video. Looking forward to upcoming videos. You are the best ❤️ 😁 Wish you and your family the best. 😷
Aww thank you so much for your blessings! Of course we wish the same for you and your family also!! The supporting documents videos will be up twice weekly, starting 12pm tomorrow so please keep a look out for those 😊.
Hi Ruksana,
Thank you for such an informative video walkthrough. It's quite overwhelming to see how much they require this time, even the first application was not this complex. Anyway I'm eagerly awaiting the video which provides the exact requirements of supporting documents, because I am scheduled to submit my wife's extension application by mid February, and am nervous about the process, especially as I've just began looking at the application process a few days ago.
Hey, Aww I know it can seem really stressful but you will be fine, I'm sure! I have 10 videos in total with regards to the supporting documents coming up which I plan on uploading twice weekly starting tomorrow at 12pm so hopefully they should all be up in time for you 🤞
Perfect timing !! thank you so much for the video. Have you had your decision back ? only thing am struggling on is the supporting documents. She hardly has anything on her name, apart from her license & bank. I look forward to the supporting documents video. Thanks again.
I’m in the same boat
Aww, I hope the supporting documents come out in time for you. I will be uploading them twice weekly starting from 12pm tomorrow so please keep a look out for those (there are 8 videos before a walkthrough of me uploading them onto the website). Hmm, I have no doubt many will be in a similar situation to you. Can you see if you can get a letter for her from he dr/dentist. I know it might prove to be difficult at the moment but give them a call and see what they can do. Also, maybe see if you can get her onto the bills or something as a joint account holder so that you have at least letters from the energy/water companies with both your names on it, even if they are really recent.
@@shannkhan1658 It's stressful but exciting because we will have another application behind us and are closer to this whole thing being over!
You’re absolutely right and I might give his GP a call tomorrow about a letter! Has your extension visa been accepted? They’ve stopped the fast track service because of covid, so hoping the turn around for the visa is quick .
@@shannkhan1658 We haven't heard anything yet and it's over the 8 weeks. They did send us an email to say there is a delay 😫
We applied completed our biometric on the 12th of Jan 2022 and received our decision on the 25th of Jan 2022. We took the standard service but it was shockingly quick . A big thanks to you Rukhsana. This walkthrough was well detailed and so easy to understand and follow. May Allah make the ILR process easy for you, will be tuned in for that video aswell.
Ameen!! Thank you so much for your duas!! But more importantly and massive congratulations to you both 🎉🎉🎉!! I am so so happy for you and for it to be that quick too, that's amazing 😁😁😁!!
Wow thats amazing!! MA congratulations!!
My BRP expires on the 13 of May, can I submit application now & book a biometric apt for 13 of April? I can get my documents all ready by then & it a month before expiration that you have to apply. Right?
@@zainabkhan9142 you can apply from 28 days before it expires. But please make sure it’s exactly 28 days before else the application might get rejected. Please submit the online form strictly on the 28 days or after mark.
You can technically apply for an extension visa after 30 months (not the 32 months that I always recommend, ie 28 days before expiry) but if for any reasons (having to travel outside the uk often etc) you don’t end up with a full 5 years total for ILR then your application can be rejected so I always say stay safe and apply 28 days before at the earliest and then you should have no issues for ILR
@@RuksanaAhmed Hi Ruksana
Thank you very much for all your videos.It has helped me so much to have a clear idea of what to expect during the application process.
I am a little bit confused about this 33 months leave to enter spouse visa and when will be the correct time to apply for my extension visa from UK.
My visa is valid from 07/11/2019 and valid until 07/08/2022.
Please do help with some insights that when is the right time for me to apply.Thanks in advance.
Hi Ruksana, Thank for all your videos. Quick question: After BRP appointment and submitting application, when do you receive an acknowledgement letter from Home Office ?
Hey, it can be days or weeks or never. You don’t always receive one unfortunately but we got one to say they received our application just a few days later.
Thank Ruks for your video. It immesely helped me. Just a few tips for other viwers, you can scan with Onedrive scan option and upload it to your personal cloud. Also i got Biometric appointment for free, it was £125 for most days but i found few slots that were free, i am not sure why it is free but i will not decline anything free. Good luck.
Aww so glad you found the videos helpful! Thanks so much for the tip on scanning via one drive, I would never have thought of that. I’ve now also found a way of uploading photos on one documents rather than one at a time like I did. Oh well, will have to share that on the next application. Yes, you can get free appointments at core centre only. I’m sure I mentioned it somewhere on one of my videos but that’s great that you were able to find one!!
Thank you so much for this video. My Wife and I will really need it for next year 🙏🙏🙏
Aww, no problem at all. Best of luck 🤞!
Excellent content, Keep up the good work. Really appreciate your efforts.
Thank you so much!! 😃
Thankyou for your guidance once again, submitted today
Aww that’s amazing! Best of luck 🤞🏼
@@RuksanaAhmed Thankyou, and once again thanks for posting all your guidance videos
