No, you don not qualify for ILR as you have not got 5 years residence.

You qualify for ILR as a Tier 1 Dependent in June/July 2018. You will need to extend your current visa.

Not sure why your post heading is marked as Urgent :idea:

Many thanks .CR001
Which category should I apply FLR(M) as my husband has now received ILR? . OR Can I extend my VISA as Tier-1 dependent until July 2018?

If I swich to FLR(M) ,my stay counter would reset and I need to wait for another 5 years for ILR .

Please suggest .

As UKVI might increase application fees in Apr-17 ,I would like to apply for my VISA before that .

This one if your husband got ILR based on 5 years residence and Tier 1 General.

You will also have to pay the £600 immigration health surcharge as the extension will be for 3 years. You must also have maintained funds I believe.
