Our FLR(M) experience at the UKVI office in Liverpool

Don't wait for your refund. Carry on with it and get the refund later.

when you book a premium same day appointment...the online booking service takes you to the IHS website first to pay the fee..then you get email telling you the reference number..then it calculates the required visa fee and premium fee. Whch you then pay. And book your date.

Is it true that i have extra 28 days extra after visa expired?

You have to apply for your FLR before the expiry date on your initial Fiancee visa.

What if i book an appointment and i got slot for the month of august? But my visa will expired on july?

Then you will be putting your status at risk. Have you checked for dates in July? Are any available in July? If so I suggest you book it.

Hi there what if i book my appointment on june?? And my visa will expired in july? Because we are short of money.. Is it ok to book my appointment on june?

Just a thought... Can you uncancel the refund and opt for the application by post instead?

Hi, refund will take up to 30days if i book my appointment on june im pretty sure there would be avail slots from other premium service centres although im near in croydon..

And how to do it by post? How can i get biometrics?

If you download the latest FLR(M) form it will give you all the information you require, once you have applied by post the UKVI will send you a letter containing a barcode which you take to your nearest Post Office that offers the BRP service.

The latest FLR(M) form is below;

Hi, yep, if ever the premimum service centres are full.. I will do it by post.. Is it ok? Although my visa will expire in july..?

As long as you apply before your initial 6 months visa expires then there will not be a problem.

Hi yes, just in case the premium service are fully booked this june.. Would i do it by post? What if i get late visa decision?

We submitted Corina's and Kieran's FLR(M) applications by post on a Saturday and their visas expired on the Monday, 48 hours later. We got the FLR (M)s six weeks later.

does anyone know of anyone who has been refused FLR ?

Hi @Methersgate so meaning to say, it is ok to get the late decision? Even though my visa will expire in july? I will apply for the extension of stay on the 24th of june once we get my hubby's salary. Im worried that later the premium appointment will fully booked so i have ni choice but to apply it by post..

As long as you have applied before your current visa runs out then everything will be fine young lady

hi there, and thank you .. im filling up my flrm form
