Hi guys, Could someone please help me with my query: I received ILR (Long Stay Rule) recently and I have a daughter who was born in the UK in 2010, but has been away from the UK since 2011. I would like her to travel back to the UK sometime next summer as she will be starting her school over here ...

Thanks vinny,

Does that mean my daughter won't be able to apply for ILR now?

I think that Amber is correct ( 302 ). Can I include my dependants in my application? No. They may apply separately if they have completed the qualifying period of 10 years. If you have a partner who does not qualify, they may apply for temporary permission to stay in the UK using application form ...

They will probably expect evidence of subsisting marriage during the periods apart. Hi vinny, could you please advise whether I could apply for indefinite leave to remain under SET (F) for my children, instead of including them in my wife's FLR (M) application. One solicitor I spoke to told me that ...

And why can't you write such a letter on your own? I would like some ideas on what to write and I want to make sure I cover everything. Would you have any ideas what I can put in the covering letter. Just a little afraid that the Case Worker may reject her application and refuse the visa without ...

They will probably expect evidence of subsisting marriage during the periods apart. Hi Vinny, I remember seeing on the forum a covering letter template to tell the Home Office not to process the dependents' applications until my ILR is issued. I have been looking around and haven't been able to ...

Thanks vinny.

How about the other questions?

Can someone help?

Did her test have an expiry date? Did her results exceed the English Language requirements?

yea I think the expiry date on the IELTS certificate is 12 Sep 2013. Not sure if the results exceed the requirement?

So, question number 4. in section 6.9: have you lived together permanently in the UK with your sponsor since your last grant of limited leave to remain as a partner? Not sure whether to say yes or no, as my wife and kids have been away the last couple of years, and I have been visiting them every 6 ...

Hi guys, Have been completing form FLR (M) and it's a bit complicated. Can you please help me out: 1. On my wife's application for FLR (M) is section 2.1 we have ticked the option saying she is applying as spouse of a person present and settled in the UK. (I haven't yet received the ILR, but I guess ...

I am also not sure what option I will need to select on form FLR(M) in section 2.3 - where it asks "Please indicate what stage of extension of leave you are applying for"?

So you will be looking at Set(F) for the children at some point. Your wife should be able to apply for settlement when she meets the qualifying period, it is still two years as you will have transitional protection. However, given the absences she may have to wait some time. Sorry a bit confused ...

UK born children optional.

Thanks for your reply vinny, the link is very helpful.

Would you be able to advise when my wife will be able to apply for ILR after obtaining FLR (M).

Your wife should apply for flr(m) asking for a decision to be made once your application is decided. Your children do not need visas, once you're granted ILR they will be entitled to register as British by virtue of section 1(3). Thanks for your reply. As my country doesn't allow dual citizenship ...

Hi guys, I have been reading this forum from time to time and it's fantastic.

My wife came to UK as my dependent in 2006 and ...
