    if you are applying for FLR then yes, if she is working or not. If you are applying for ILR then the answer is No.

    Many many thanks. I don't know if have worked it out correctly. For an average FLR Surcharge it's around £500 would this be correct. I aiming this at members recently applying for their FLR would this be accurate?

    Hi Sheldon,
    It's more like £600

    But your best best is to follow this gov.uk calculator:-

    It's FLR she applying for. There is a drop down box that you have to click on. Maybe you could look Terpe clarify? It looks simple enough and I believe I am doing this correctly? But I am getting £100 Maybe everyone is different . There is a couple of FLR options though and I have tried every single one? Can I clarify this is FLR not ILR? cheekee can you confirm what was yours?

    On the visa route question, choose "Further Leave to Remain - FLR". On the visa type, choose "Marriage - FLR(M)".

    We just went through the FlR process and the fee is £500 and it is set at that.

    You go on to the health surcharge site and put in your details, i.e.. FLR and the cost will come up as £500, this will be for the next 30 months but you will get 33 months to play with. Once you have paid the £500 you will get a reference number. When you fill out the FLR form there is a session asking for your health surcharge number. There is no set month to start or finish, just pay the £500 and it will cover all the FLR no matter if it starts a few months later.

    We paid it in June when i was filling out the form and the wife's FLR started on the 16th Sep.
