ILR applications for PBS deps - spouse long residence

[vinny]

An alternative is FLR(FP).

[Channa]

Hi Vinny thanks for your reply. So when and how should I apply under this category? So if I appeal on the basis of same ground, then I prob have to wait for appeal date or something. So my question is do I have to wait until the baby is born to apply under FLR(FP)? Appreciate your help and guidance. Many thanks

[Obie]

Well perhaps by the time your appeal is heard, your baby will be born and will be British, and this will exempt you from the financial requirement.

She may apply for SET(M) probably now, before the fees increase.

Hi Amber,

It is really nice to your posts on this bolgs and it is really much helpfull for the immigrants who is looking for some sort of soultions like this.

My name is Madhava Lekkala, am going for ILR in next month(june 2015) , my wife came to this country in Aust 2011 as my tier1 dependent and she went back to my home country India due to her pregnancy on 2012 Janury. during her stay in india her VISA was expired and we applied for new entry from india on Septemeber 2013 and she got VISA again she came to UK to accompany me on sepetember-2013.This is the history.

Now i have following questions: Can you please help me if you know answers to the below questions.

1.As my wife enter into as First entry clearance on 2011 will she fall into 2 years of prohibition period?If not ? why ? because I have followed up UKBA immigration rules documents in gov.uk site and there are is no rule specified that if Tier 1 partner hass a gap in her stay or applied for 2 entry clearances then they will take the latest entry clearance as their reference point to put new rules to applicant.

I have seen only the rule that if partner enter into this country before 9th july-2012 the she will fall under 2 years prohibition period. and If partner on after 2012 9th july then 5 years , but nowhere specified that if partner enter into this country before 2012 and partner went back to home country and again if parter had new EC on after 2012 july then she/he might not eleigible-this rule i haven't seen. But in your blogs as you have specified this? If you know what section states this rule can you please provide me the link?


2. In worst scenario if my partner is not eligible then what is the best solution will you provide me? because my partner has Valid dependednt VISA until 2017 April-01. Me i am going for ILR next month. Once i get my ILR will my partner VISA void? or it will be continued?

3.If my partner VISA is valid unti 2017 April- then my partner will complete only 4 years of her stay here still she need to complete one more year as per new rules. So, how can i apply for her one more year stay? Do you recommend me to gor FLR(M)?

4.As you spcpefied If partner apply for FLR(M) then his/her previous stay will be void and it will start from ZERO which mean again my partner need to stay another 5 more years to apply for her ILR? If this rule is correct then i didn't see any section for this rule, will you help in providing link for this rule.

in transition rules i have seen Section 319(C)(iii) (1)(2) says that if main applicant is british citizen or settller then if partner is not eligible for ILR then he/she can go for FLR(M) but no where specified that his/her previous stay can carry forward for ILR or the clock will reset to ZERO. If you have a link can you please pvovide me the link where it shows that particular rule?

5.If i get my citizenship next year will i be able to apply for citizenship to my daughters as per new rules or will i need to wait until my wife get ILR? to apply citizenship for childrens will both parents should be citizens?

Thanks
Madhava

Hi All
i wonder if someone can answer these questions

what changes has taken place for dependents, do they have to be in UK with main applicant (10 year route) for more the 5 year or can They apply without any time constraint and is it compulsory to change the status of dependent within 28 days of receiving 10 year long residence ilr even if they have a valid leave to remain left
if someone can answer these queries i would be grateful

Thank You

Main applicant is granted ILR on 10 year basis, then under new rules their dependent has to complete 5 years on FLR M and then apply for settlement. Previous stay in UK will not count and settlement clock is reset for further 5years from the date FLR M is approved.

The 28 days is not mentioned however all discussions on this forum conclude its best to switch as early as possible.

Thanks in advanced.

Hi Friend,

Does any thing changed since above statement. "Main applicant is granted ILR on 10 year basis, then under new rules their dependent has to complete 5 years on FLR M and then apply for settlement."


I am planning for future because i will have same issue in nearer future.

Hello All..

Someone can help please!

I applied ILR for my wife in croydon POE Feb 2015, caseworker decided she's not eligible and she has to wait 5 more years to qualify ILR.I already posted the full history on this forum and received advice from Vinny and other Gurus. Thank you guys for that

I was told to write a letter to case worker to reconsider the application so I did, wrote letter on 4/3/2015 also requested for refund, later received refund.

Today, 8/7/2015 someone from home office called my wife stating she does qualify and she just need to do payment at croydon POE, Unfortunately she's a bit panic and failed to ask further details..I wonder I should book an appointment along with new application form or any other way to get this done? Please advice, you guys are always very helpful to me

[Kartal23]

Hi every one. I have got ILR through 10 years route . I had Turkish worker visa before that. So my wife has got Turkish worker depandant visa. Her visa expired 2017. So is there any time limit for my wife to change her visa because of me ?

[Kamranijaz]

Hi guys,

First of all its a very good blog to get information regarding
Immigration matters.

I am having a similar type of problem for my wife visa.
Just a little overview about her status in uk.

She came on student dependent in Nov 2009
2010 she switched with me on psw

And then 2014 tier 1 enterpreneur dependent as my visa was refused and I win it in court.

Now I got my ILR long residence in Aug 2015

My question is does she still comes under before 9 July 2012 rules and I need to apply flr for settlement or I need to apply set M and she has to go to 5 year rules

I really appreciate your help

Thanks
Kamran

[vinny]

Unfortunately, it's FLR(M).

5-year route.

[cabel]

Apply for a reconsideration.

I wrote letter for reconsideration and successfully granted ILR for my wife and child.

Great Forum and Thanks Vinny

2. If flr(fp) is the option than how is it different to flr(m).
3. Can I apply on peo for flr(fp)
3.can I vary from flr(fp) to flr(m) when iam ready financially, I don't mind paying twice if it's worth.

Your reply is always appreciated.
