A migrant, who has been granted an entry clearance to the UK, might be able\u00a0\u00a0to extend their leave to remain in the UK subject to meeting the relevant criteria prior to the expiry date of the visa. However, they are not allowed to have more than one form of leave at the same time. This means that a migrant cannot have two concurrent leave or \u201cvisas\u201d, for instance, as a Tier 2 General and Tier 1 Entrepreneur or as a visitor and fianc\u00e9.<\/p>\n
Further, if a new application were to be refused under the general grounds for refusal, the current visa might also be considered for revocation. Therefore, when making a fresh application, an applicant will need to carefully understand the relevant Immigration Rules and ensure that all the requirements are met.<\/p>\n
