Hi All...I have been going through the process of renewing my Retirement Ext...it had expired after I got stuck back home in Ireland during the pandemic. I have gone through the "Application of stay under consideration" stage and my latest stamp says "Non O Retirement" and to report back in August (about 11 weeks later).
My 2 questions please... I think the Imm.O. said I will have to re-submit in August... All the paperwork again that I submitted the last time to get to this stage ...am I correct in that ?...and secondly...do I have to wait till August or can I do it earlier. If I can do the application earlier, will it be dated from the August date or the date I make the application...if approved.
Thanking you in advance for any advice.
TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is in the process of renewing their Non-O Retirement visa which expired while they were stuck in Ireland due to the pandemic. They are at the "Application of stay under consideration" stage, with their passport stamped to report back in August. They seek clarification on whether they need to resubmit all paperwork for the visa renewal when they return in August, and if they can submit the application earlier. Responses clarify that documentation may need to be resubmitted, with the application for extension able to be made once under 30 days remain on the current stamp. The extension, if approved, would be applied from the original admit date rather than the application date.
