We can assist with the following visa extensions:
Hassle-free five-year UK Ancestry visa extensions
If you have held an Ancestry visa for five years and meet the relevant requirements, you can apply to stay in the UK permanently. Alternatively, you may extend your visa.
The application to extend your Ancestry visa must be made from within the UK before your current visa expires.
If you have any dependants on your current visa, they must be included in your application to extend. This includes any children who have turned 18 within the past five years.
If you are granted an extension, you will have to pay a “health surcharge” together with your visa extension application fees. This surcharge allows you to gain access to care from the National Health Service (NHS). The surcharge is currently £470 per year for students and those under 18, and £624 for all other visa types.
An extension will allow you to remain in the UK for an additional five years.

Have confidence in your application's success
Skilled Worker visa extension
Your employment situation, your salary and your continued sponsorship by your current employer are all relevant factors in determining whether you can renew your Skilled Worker visa. You must also be present in the UK to apply for the visa extension.

Take the stress out of the visa extension process
Student visa extension
To extend your Student visa, you must be in the UK and have a sponsor. As when you applied for your initial Student visa, you can only be sponsored by a UK, or overseas, higher education institute, certain colleges or an independent school.
You must apply for your visa extension within six months of receiving your confirmation of acceptance for studies and before your current visa expires. Do note: You cannot apply for your UK visa extension more than three months before your next course’s start date.
When extending your visa, you will need to pay the immigration health surcharge, provide detailed documentation to prove you are going to continue to be a student in the UK, and provide all your biometric data so you can get your biometric residence permit.
Your application will take up to eight weeks, but you can use a priority service that will get you a result in 10 days. You also can use a fast-track visa service that will get you an answer on the same day. To use the premium service, you’ll need to go to one of the premium service centres in person.
If you have any children under 18 living in the UK on your Student visa, then you must apply for their visa extensions at the same time.
The process is much the same for those who are in the UK on a Child Student visa. If you have any questions about renewing a child’s Student visa, do not hesitate to contact our UK visa experts.
We have years of experience in extending visas.
