Is this for the final marriage visa after 2 years? Do you have to meet in person or can it be on line instead?

KFDancer is applying for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR), which is the 3rd visa after 5 years in the UK. It's basically permanent residence.
The timeline if you entered the UK on a spousal visa is:
Spousal visa for 2.5 years
FLR(M) visa for 2.5 years
ILR after 5 years in the UK
And if you entered the UK on a fiance visa:
Fiance visa for 6 months
FLR(M) visa for 2.5 years
FLR(M) visa for 2.5 years
ILR after 5 years on FLR(M)
Having said that, all applications made in the UK (so FLR(M) or ILR) can either be applied for by post or by an in-person appointment for a same-day decision. There is an online version of at least the FLR(M) application (not sure about ILR), but you still have to either mail it for processing or go to an in-person appointment. FLR(M) by post can take 8 weeks and ILR by post can take 6 months, so you can pay extra for the in-person appointment if you don't want to wait that long.
It currently costs £590 on top of the visa fee to apply in person... but what KFDancer is saying is that if you want to attend the appointment on a Saturday/desirable time, they are charging an extra £75 on top of the £590.
