I am a volunteer befriender for a charity that supports that asylum seekers and refugees. The family (husband, wife, 4 daughters) I support were granted 3 years discretionary leave in March 2012, and then were granted it again so they will have completed 6 years DL by March 2018. They want to apply for ILR but they do not have £14k to pay the fees - the wife is disabled and the husband is her full-time carer. Can they apply for a fee waiver? The guidance seems to suggest not. If not, is there an alternative route or source of funding available to them? And how would one go about accessing that? Thanks for your help.
