ILR (10 Year Route) Exempt Vigenette depandant

[simz24]

Hi All,

Came to uk on a dependant diplomatic visa May 2015. Was in Full time education in until 2021 and started working. Applied for FLR 2 years ago still waiting for a response. Now i am nearing the 10 year mark for ILR and since Im still waiting on a decision which is most likely going to be negative can i apply for an IRL given a recall letter has been issued. I understand earliest I can apply is April. Will applying in Feb be too soon?

You can try.

Applying early is not an issue as the date of the ILR decision is considered: Applicants can benefit from the date of the ILR decision

Hi All,

Recently just reached the 10 year mark and considering applying for Set LR via the 10 year route. However was curious will the 7 years spent as dependent count towards ILR and currently on a section 3c for the remaining 3 years. Can I apply for ILR given the new laws and will my time spend as dependant count towards the 10 years?

Thank you
