Re: Visa vignette issued, but we can't arrive in UK before expiry date!
All, i have just reveived notice that a decision on my wife’s settlement visa has been made. We have 21 days as per email received from moscow TLS to produce the passports for hopefully a vignette. As my wife already had a 5 year uk family visa, she has been in the uk for the full process of application in sheffield. Due to small family members my wife cannot travel to moscow to process the passport- during application we selected the “ keep passport while applying” section which is how she arrived into the uk with me. I do know that i can present and pick up her passport from moscow but the question is - does the vignette have to be stamped upon arrival into uk. As i will be carrying this and my wife will be already in the uk. I am concerned that after my return and then picking up the Final document from the local post office not having the vignette stamped may cause immigration issues. Please advise if possible. I hope i have been clear in the details.

Re: Visa vignette issued, but we can't arrive in UK before expiry date!
HI ALL,
my wife got her visa granted on 5.5.2019 and she got it for 30days. we got a baby now so she cant travel to UK between this time limit. therefor I have applied for a vignette transfer to her visa on 1.6.2019 submitted the online application. and when I went to book an appointment with VFS they only have dates available after 11.6.2019 which is after her visa expiry date. visa expires on 6.6.2019. so I want to find out if she submits her application to VFS after her visa runout is it will be a problem?
much appreciate your advice.
Thank you.

osakamackem JAZIMJIFFRY Did you you get the Vignette extensions in the end? How long did it take for you to receive it after submitting the online application? I might need to apply for my wife and there is very little info online about it. Many thanks.

Amychi didn't know how to do it and was asking others. But if you go back to the start of the thread and read the first few posts, there is your answer. Hopefully those answers are still applicable, but this thread is nearly 18 months old, so just in case the process has changed I'll close it now - if you need to ask further questions, please start a new thread.
Thx.
