50 minutes it took to obtain my visa extension based upon retirement and also conduct my 90 day check-in. Exactly the same documents as last year.
The IO apologised that it took a long time but the new boss would not put up with any mistakes so he had to triple check that everything was correct. He also reiterated last years statement that it was not necessary to produce details of both my savings and fixed deposit accounts as the latter had sufficient funds.
Note for Nomad: after reading your post this morning re: 1 year statement, I printed off my last 6 months statement (more was not available) showing the pension being deposited every month from overseas. I did not include it in the package though, and the IO did not ask for it.
