Thoughts appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob M Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 Hi one and all, I'm not sure this belongs here, but here goes... My 600 visa expires soon (early March 2021). Prior to this I was here for 6 months (2x3 months) on a eVisitor(subclass 651). My circumstances haven't changed. I'm still a retired old UK bloke with one friend here but no family. Can I apply for a further 600 visa? Only 2 conditions on my current one,8101 - No work, and 8201 - Maximum three months study ....and whilst waiting for a decision, If my family wants me to return to UK during the BVA but before a new visa is granted/Denied, can I apply for a refund of the fee? Regards, and thanks Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hetankhatri Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 If your parents want to extend their own visa by less than 3 months, there is no medical check required, your parents can get BVA to stay legally while waiting for the result of the 600 visas.
