Tips on how not to overstay on your UK Visa

Breytenbachs bring you advice and tips on how not to overstay your UK Visa. In most cases, people do not overstay their UK Visa or Permit on purpose. Mostly, it happens as people live busy lives and accidentally miss the expiration date of their visa. Unfortunately, overstaying on your visa can have very far-reaching consequences.

Tips on how not to overstay your UK visa

Set up a reminder system on your calendar or on your phone.  You can even ask friends or family to set reminders as well. The importance of maintaining valid Leave to Remain in the UK is worth the extra effort.

Ensure that the Home Office has your current and updated contact details.  If the Home Office decides to amend the period of your Leave to Remain for any reason, then they will seek to contact you to let you know of the change. If they are not able to contact you as a result of having outdated contact details, you could end up overstaying your visa whilst believing that you hold a valid visa.

Make sure that you know all the requirements for your next immigration application. Also, make sure that you are able to meet these requirements. This will help prevent last-minute delays and stress. Contact Breytenbachs if you are not sure what your next application will require. They will ensure that you are well-prepared for the next step in your journey.

Speak to your Breytenbachs consultant at least a month before your current visa expires. This will ensure that you have plenty of time to collect the paperwork required in support of the application. This will also give them enough time to prepare and submit the application in advance of your visa expiring.
