You will apply for Set(m) if you wish to apply for settlement, assuming you meet the requirements, if not, an extension under flr(m).

Thank you very much for your quick reply. I would love to know if you have a link or list of all the requirements required. Thank you very much once again

You don't know how happy i am to recieve your quick response and here is another question.


I have a friend of mine who was issued with 3 years visa recently based on Article 8 or family life because he has access to his child etc but he would love to know whether he will be given another 3 years or permanent resident. Thank you

You will not be able to apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) until you have lived in the UK for at least six years under the Discretionary Leave to Remain (article 8 leave). He would need to seek OISC advice to see if he would be eligible for another 3 years Discretionary Leave to Remain, I certainly cannot say what his chances would be, it would depend on a number of factors.

A spouse visa would be FLR(m) for further leave to remain (after his DLR I assume you mean), an extension, or SET(o) if he qualified for settlement under DL.

I'm sorry i didn't make it very clear. I meant say after his 3 years extension or during the course of his 3 years visa(Article 8) if he got married to a British citizen then can he applied for SET(M)? is this what you mean by SET(M) if he qualified for settlement.


Thank you very much

He would have to go for spouse/partner further leave to remain - FLR(m) first to then qualify for spouse settlement under Set(m). To get Set(o) settlement he would have to have his 'Article 8' leave extended for a total of 6 years.
