UK Partner Visa Extension Made Simple

An extension under Appendix FM requires you to show that your relationship remains genuine and subsisting, that you continue to meet the financial requirement, and that you meet the accommodation and (where applicable) English-language requirements. The minimum income figure has changed recently — check the current figure on GOV.UK (gov.uk/uk-family-visa/partner-spouse).

We make sure your application includes every required document, from bank statements covering the correct periods to the relationship evidence the Home Office expects. We handle extensions across the spouse, civil partner and unmarried partner routes — see our spouse visa service for the underlying requirements.

Extensions are most often refused over insufficient financial evidence (missing payslips or bank statements), inadequate relationship evidence, or English-language and other documentary issues.

We address these through a thorough eligibility review before submission, matching your evidence to the rules in force on the date you apply. Where an extension has already been refused, we review the decision and advise on the strongest next step.

Past results do not guarantee any particular outcome; every application is decided by the Home Office on its own facts.
