Is it possible to apply for Visa extension of a Nigerian visitor in the UK?

Upvote:7

There is no route to extend a visitor visa beyond the standard 6 months unless the visa holder is:

  • a patient receiving medical treatment

  • an academic and you still meet the eligibility requirements

  • a graduate doing a clinical attachment or retaking the Professional and Linguistic Assessment Board (PLAB) test

Even giving notice of intention to marry https://www.gov.uk/marriages-civil-partnerships, and assuming the Home Office approved the request, would not mean that your girlfriend’s visit visa would be extended beyond the original 6 months.
