Long stay vs tier 2 route - pros and cons?
Posted: Sat Aug 11, 2018 6:55 pm
Hello there,
My wife has been in on a tier 2 visa for 4 years and has been in the UK lawfully for 9 years. I was wondering if there are any advantages or disadvantages to applying for ILR based on 5 years on tier 2 vs 10 years continuous residence?
I ask because we are considering switching my wife from a tier 2 to a spousal visa which would obviously eliminate the tier 2 route. Many thanks in advance.
