Hi ,

My visa category and duration is mentioned below, am i eligible to apply for ILR next year. Please confirm

Visa Category Duration

Tier 2 ICT (Established Staff) Aug 2011 - Jun 2013 (22 Months)
Tier 2 ICT Dependant Visa Nov 2013- Aug 2014 (22 Months)
Tier 2 General Aug 2014 for the next 3 years

From June 2013 to Nov 2013 (150 Days) i was in my home country.

Many Thanks,

As you were a dep and also the ICT did not start from April 2010, your qualifying period would start from the T2 (G). You should continue as a PBS dep if possible?

Many Thanks for the response.

My parter has Tier 2 ICT first issued in Jan 2010 and it has been extended till Aug 2014. If her Tier 2 ICT were to get extended for one more year or she gets her Tier 2 General visa processed, will i be eligible for ILR (along with her) being her dependant next year?

No, as you have only been a PBS dep since 2013, however, you may continue/extend as a PBS dep after she has been granted ILR. Until 2018 when you can apply for settlement.
