Oh well. It is what it is. By the time the extension expires, it will be 13-14 weeks of waiting for the new passport. Hopefully it won’t take too much longer than that.

Ok - here’s another complicating factor… my passport is tied to hers - guardian visa. So I can’t renew without her… I also have 2 passports

… over to her other passport…

Also, I did see on another forum that somebody was in a similar situation and they paid for an emergency passport - then put new extension is it. That just sounds complicated…

She has another passport (nationality) but that passport expires in October (she’s just that age when 5 year kid passports expire) - any way at all to move the extension over?

Thanks Tod. Totally aware of this. It also takes about 3 weeks just to get the appointment at VFS. There’s a reason why we couldn’t submit the application earlier - the issue now is, what do I do about the visa extension? I’m thinking of applying for an emergency passport. There must be many in this situation

Ha, it’s the British Embassy. They’re allergic to their citizens. There an online firm that I. Filled it - 10 days and still waiting for a reply. Not sure I’ll ever get a reply. Utterly useless
