Proposed new visa fees from April

I'm wondering whether or not to use the premium service for the second FLR especially given that the applications do not seem to be taking that long, should just miss the new fees.

I can fully understand people going for the premium service, its good to get it done and dusted in a day and £400 for the experience isn't that much money in the grand scheme of things.

I just don't see what benefit there is on using it on the second FLR unless you need the passport in a hurry.

Plus it's extra hassle, and, if self employed you lose a day's work.

THANK YOU SO MUCH, @Micawber for this details of info.My post was actually soliciting responses so I would know which is the better way,but honestly what you shared is very important to us.Imagine the hassles in the future for falling short of the5 year duration requirement?
Thanks again for sharing.

Given the would be increase in fees by the time i'm due to apply for FLR?,I would better do it by post then.
One thing is sure...we can't outsmart "them " when it comes to fees hahaha

Did you apply by post?how did you do it?Can't find the list of documents needed for FLR,can you please help me find those.?thanks a lot.

Thanks for that clarification Maharg, im just confuse about Tax Return, my sponsor will apply as Director of the LTD he already have the account 2014-2015 that his Accountant provide but what exactly is this Tax Return? what kind of Form is that PAYE? COR?

I'm not a ltd company, so things may differ. I am a sole trader and this needs to be sent in annually.

I'm sure he would do the same. It is a declaration of earnings and expenses for the year. His accountant would know. Tell him to check with his accountant.

I would let your sponsor sort all this out. It's his job, not yours.
