Have a multiple entry "O" Visa issued in Cardiff, UK November 2007. Owing to circumstances may not be returning to the UK after September 2008. My question is

1) Can I go back to Cardiff and renew my Visa 2 months+ early?

2) Where else can I go for this type of visa renewal?

3) After this one renewal, intend to go down the "Retirement route"

Any help/advice welcomed

1. Yes - if they will still issue such a visa.

2. Believe Hull is one of the few places if not based on marriage.

3. You can do that outside (home country) or inside Thailand.

You do not renew it. You get another one which means your current one will be void and you will lose the 2 months.

Can get Hull or Birmingham.
