REGISTERING FAMILY FOR SETTLEMENT AFTER BREAK IN RESIDENCE

[femooh]

Yes, but for the short period spent there. Only one child.

[Obie]

I believe it is worth a fight actually . There is merit in their cases.

Thank you Obie, I appreciate your comments and understanding. People migrate for various reasons but sudden need to relocate could result in making rash decisions. Whatever the situation, in this particular case, certain steps have been taken, some vital mistakes have been made and serious lessons have been learnt. However, the onus falls on us to make the best of the present situation and wish for a positive outcome...God helping us.
Thank you moderators, thank you all; I rest my case.

I don't have anything helpful to say, but you seem to have a realistic view of how things are. I wanted to wish you luck, even if the fight ahead is long and hard!

Uhh... Am now at a cross-road. What step should I take and form should I use. It bothers me to think that a child that was taken out and back to the UK while still a 5/6-year old could be penalised. He was not responsible for that action and I also feel that "provision" would be nugatory if a child is penalised for actions for which they were not responsible.
But who am I to judge.
Please, do we have immigration lawyer(s) within this forum that can takes this up for my family.
I thank you all for your wonderful contributions and appreciate the time you sacrificed but I still your support/ advice for this final huddle. Bless you.

I have sent you information and advice via Private messages, that will assist you.

May I use this opportunity to thank all members of this wonder community and especially the moderators for the wonderful work - giving invaluable advices.
I have benefitted a lot from reading and contributing to the forums and at this moment will appreciate further advice on what, I pray, will be the final straight in my family's immigration race to settlement.
After my wife got her leave to remain a few months back, we proceeded to formalise our marriage which is blessed with children (aged 14 and six years) that have already gotten their BP’s.
I have my ILR and about to complete my 12 months mandatory pre-naturalisation wait period.
But my wife’s leave to remain is based on the 10 year tenure and she has been granted the initial 30 months leave to stay.
Since we have now formalised our marriage in the registry, what step(s) can we take to reduce the period to ILR 5-year stay?
The children are British. I have an ILR and we all live together.
Please, advice.
Thank you.

If you have a combined pre-tax income of £18,600 she may be eligible for FLR(M) which would be a 5 year route.

she may be eligible for FLR(M) which would be a 5 year route.

Just to clarify, that would be a new five year route. Her immigration clock would be reset to zero and she would be eligible for ILR five years after the first grant to FLR(M), if successful.
