Hi, my OA visa will expire (2nd year) whilst I am in the UK. I will get another one whilst I'm there, do I need to get a new Police check and Doctors certificate? Thank you in advance.

TLDR : Answer Summary

If you are applying for a new OA visa while in the UK, you will need to provide a new Police check and Doctors certificate because this process is considered a new application, not an extension. All requirements for the OA visa must be fulfilled.

Yes as its a NEW APPLICATION for the OA visa based on retirement. Made using the Evisa online application system.

It's NOT 🚫 an extension of it.

ALL of the requirements for the OA visa MUST be met with your application for it.
