Dependent not eligible for ILR same time

Post by Nikil1984 » Fri Oct 08, 2021 8:54 pm

I am eligible for ILR in January but my family is eligible only in June because they will complete 5yeare then. All our General Tier 2 visa are valid till April.
What is the best option to fulfill their ILR by keeping the 5 year route? Can I apply for ILR and then sponsor their visa?

Your dependants extend under Skilled worker dependant visa and apply for ILR when eligible in June

Thanks for the reply. For extension should I get any document from my sponsor that they can cover or just showing Proof for Maintenance fund is enough?

Their extension has nothing to do with your sponsor. You need to show maintenance https://www.gov.uk/skilled-worker-visa/ ... d-children

Dependent visa extension while ILR in process

Post by Nikil1984 » Fri Dec 10, 2021 7:03 pm

Hi,
I am planning to apply for ILR in January. My family is not eligible for ILR then so they will applying for visa extension in March when the PBS dependent visa is due to expire.
Can someone tell me if my ILR is in process, is there any problem for them to apply for a dependent extension?
