We had an AAT/ART file lodged in Aug 2024 and were still waiting for it to be opened, while holding a BVA. During this time, we travelled overseas twice on a BVB with no issues at the airport. One trip was to lodge the 189 application, and the other was for holidays. No onshore work experience. S56 Notes S56 request: 13 March 2026 (bank statements & tax return)

Mine was slightly more complicated as I had to go through the courts for a specific issue order. I was also refused support from two of the top visa agents as they said my case was complicated and very unlikely... so did it all myself. For anyone else in this position, you have to take the gamble and do the court application and visa simultaneously. You won't get court approval without being in the visa process and you can't get your visa without courts approval. It's a gamble and it's costly but worth it! Total cost for visa - £6200 Total cost including court order - £20,400 S56 Notes 03/03/2026 – ACRO check submitted 04/03/2026 – ACRO check completed
