 Orchid of Siam are authorised to provide immigration advice and services by the Immigration Services Commissioner Ref. No. F200500016. Members of the Immigration Law Practitioners' Association.FLR(M) is the most commonly used one and is for people who have entered the UK on a fiancée visa who have now registered their marriage or Civil Partnership and wish to start the two year probationary period leading to settlement/ indefinite leave to remain in the UK. It can also be used for unmarried or same sex partners who can prove that they have already been living together for at least two years and that they have been doing so whilst not in breach of the immigration laws. Any children under 18 years of age at the time the form is submitted admitted to the UK at the same time as their parent should be included on the form and there is no extra fee to be paid for them. People who have married in the UK using the Certificate of Approval (COA) must also apply for further leave to remain on this form. If the applicant or the spouse or partner has previously been married they MUST provide the final divorce certificate or death certificate with an authorised translation into English if the document is in any other language. Further leave to Remain can also be applied for in the following categories: Immigration Employment Document holder; Student; Science and Engineering Graduate Scheme; Fresh Talent: Working in Scotland scheme; Business person, sole representative or retired person of independent means. Each of these uses a different FLR form. For any applicant who does not fit into any of the above categories it is possible to make an application outside the rules on form FLR(O). The fee for processing an application by the Home Office Border & Immigration Agency is £395.00 for a postal application that can take up to 14 weeks to process or £595.00 for an application made in person. A FLR application can be made 28 or less days before the current leave to remain expires but if it is received by the Home Office after the current leave has expired it will be refused and the applicant will be in the UK illegally and subject to deportation and exclusion from the UK. Additionally proof that the applicant can either support themselves or that their British partner can do so without recourse to public funds will be required. It is acceptable if the British partner is claiming public funds in his right only. It should be noted that the Home Office fee is for processing the application only and it is not refundable in the event of refusal. Should it be necessary to have to request the passport back from the Home Office before the application has been decided then the application is treated as withdrawn and the fees paid are not refunded. This may place the applicant in the position of no longer having permission to remain in the UK and a new visa will need to be applied for overseas normally in the home country of the applicant. NOTE if further leave to remain is being applied for when the two year probationary period is coming to an end instead of the usual indefinite leave to remain application (for example because the Life in the UK Test has not been passed) then you will need to supply 20 documents in your single or joint names at the same address proving that you are and have been living together throughout the previous two years. We offer an application service for all FLR requests except FLR(O) at a fixed fee of £157.50. FLR(O) requests depend on the circumstances and complexity of the case and a quote will be given after we have received your full details the fee is likely to be in the region of £500.00. If you wish to make a FLR application please E-mail us with your contact details, the nationality of the applicant and the type of FLR required or complete the form below and submit it to us. We will then contact you. Payment of our fee is required in advance and can be made via the Visa/Mastercard logo button below with any major credit or debit card or by cheque or postal order to the address at the foot of this page.
