Settlement requirements for tier 1 dependant
This page explains the requirements for settlement for family members of lead
applicants.
Partners: paragraph 319E of the Immigration Rules
To be granted settlement as the partner of a lead applicant the applicant must:
• be the spouse, civil partner or unmarried partner of a person who is being, or
has been, granted settlement as a lead applicant
• have, or have last been granted, permission as the partner of the person who is
being, or has been, granted settlement as a lead applicant
• have been living with the lead applicant in the UK in a marriage or civil
partnership, or in a relationship similar to marriage or civil partnership, for at
least 5 years, with permission as the lead applicant’s partner when the lead
applicant had permission under any category and have met all the
requirements of paragraph 319C (a) to (e) during that time
• be in a genuine and subsisting relationship with the lead applicant at the time
the application is made - for more information, see: Family life (as a partner or
parent), private life and exceptional circumstances
• intend to live together permanently with the lead applicant as their spouse, civil
partner or unmarried partner - for more information, see: Family life (as a
partner or parent), private life and exceptional circumstances
• Anyone aged between 18 and 65 when they apply for settlement must
demonstrate sufficient knowledge of the English language and about life in the
UK unless you consider that, because of the applicant's mental or physical
condition, it would be unreasonable to expect the applicant to fulfil either or
both parts of that requirement. - see: Appendix KoLL
• not have been absent from the UK for more than 180 days in any 12 month
period during the 5 year period except:
o any absence from the UK for the purpose of assisting with a national or
international humanitarian or environmental crisis overseas shall not count
towards the 180 days
o any absence from the UK during periods of leave granted under the Rules in
place before 11 January 2018 shall not count towards the 180 days
o for any applicant who has or has had leave as the dependant partner of a
Tier 2 (General) migrant, where the Tier 2 migrant’s Certificate of
Sponsorship Checking Service entry shows that they were sponsored to
work in a PhD level occupation when the absence occurred, any absence of
the applicant from the UK to accompany their partner while the partner
carried out research activities overseas shall not count towards the 180 days
