Tier 2 General Dependent to ILR

Post by bnk9 » Wed Nov 16, 2016 12:31 pm

Hi,

I was on Tier 2 General until yesterday and got my ILR approved. Now, i need to apply ILR for my spouse who is on Tier 2 General Dependent. She has been living in the UK from Apr 2012 which means she is eligible for 2 year period. The question i have is what category my spouse fall under? Tier 2 general dependent (or) ILR dependent?

Please could someone clarify? Thanks in advance.

If she holds a current Tier 2 dependent visa, this is the only category she qualifies for ILR in.

Why do you think it is anything else if she does not hold the 'ILR dependent' visa.
