Hey guys,
I was wondering if any of you could help me.
I am currently on a Partnership Work Visa and it is up on 17th January so need to reapply. I am under the impression that I will go straight on to an Interim Visa whilst I await a decision, which is fine, but how soon before the date of expiry do I need to reapply in order to confirm that I will get this? Do INZ just simply need to accept the application - and if so, how long does that take? Or do they need to have accepted it and passed it over to a Case Officer? I am just worrying what with the Christmas Shutdown I suspect they will have and money leading up to Christmas. I was looking to apply in the first week of January (online) but don't know if this is leaving it too late!
Please help!!
Thanks in advance
