Hi All, I applied for ILR for my dependents SET(O) on 3rd July via Standard processing. My dependents may have to travel out of UK sometime in mid-December. And this will not fall outside the 6 months processing wait time. I recently came across the option to vary an existing application if a decis...

Also if possible can someone help understand what impact this new guidance will have on my ILR application? Its a 8.5 yr old offense and was declared twice previously for Tier 2 related applications as well.

Please ignore my last post. I found the relevant info on the uk gov site which is what CR001 mentioned earlier. The above link gives misleading information
I happened to come across this link which says that dependents will lose their status once the primary switches to ILR http://www.1stcontact.com/blog/featured-news/ilr-questions-answers I am now eligible to apply for ILR but I have family members that are on dependant visas. Should my dependants app...
No, they continue to extend their PBS Dependent visas until they meet the requirements for ILR. All assuming the rules remain the same. No need to switch to 'family of settled person' visa. CR001 - how is it that a Tier 2 dependent visa remains valid after its parent visa Tier 2 general has been ca...

Are non custodial sentences not factored in for spouse visas?
S.EC 1.5 does have the same clause as 320(18A) for non-custodial sentences - the 12 month period from the date of conviction for discretionary refusal.
Could a 1 and 1/2 year old drink driving conviction result in a discretionary refusal when applying for a spouse visa from outside the UK? I was convicted in March 2013 and received a fine + disqualification. As specified in the refusal clause it should be refused if the date of conviction was withi...
Hi, Would someone know more about the clauses 320(18) and 320(18A) with regards to the general grounds of refusal for an application with a criminal history for which he or she received a non-custodial sentence. These two clauses seem to be giving different rules for discretionary refusal. 320(18) -...
