The Spouse Visa extension is designed for non-EEA residents who have been living in the UK under a Spouse Visa.

If you wish to stay in the UK when your initial Spouse Visa expires, you can apply for a Spouse Visa renewal or extension. The Spouse Visa extension, like the Spouse Visa, lasts for 30 months or 2.5 years. When the extension expires, you can apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain status, which can eventually lead to British citizenship.

The requirements for the extension are similar to the original Spouse Visa and include being able to prove that you have been in a genuine relationship with your spouse/partner, and intend to carry on living together in the UK.

Also, in most cases, an applicant will need to be able to show that they have a combined income with their spouse/partner of at least £18.600. Detailed below is all you need to know about the Spouse Visa extension after 2.5 years and beyond Spouse visa renewal.
