I got ILR since 2015(pbs 5 year route) and my wife and I married in uk while she has student visa, then we leave uk for 1 year and our baby was born outside of UK. if i want to bring them back to uk, what type of visa should they apply? i think my wife need spouse visa? can my baby apply for ILR?

If I am settled in UK(via 5 years working visa), I think my wife should apply for spouse visa and can then apply for ILR after 5 years. I got a few questions: 1) Is there a limitation on how many days she need to stay in UK every year if she want to apply for ILR after 5 years 2) If we have a child ...

if father is ILR, mother is spouse visa, and child is born outside of UK, can child get ILR first and then get british citizenship after certain years? if yes, how many years does the child need between ILR and citizenship?

Set(O) if she is PBS dependent. Set(M) is for the spouse route, i.e. she become your dependent after you get ILR.

Has anyone applied visa and got result on the same now? I used to be able to do it via PEO, but it is closed now

hi Vinny, thanks for your reply. We have not divorced yet. Even if we remain in the marriage until Jan 2019, she can not get IRL? I thought she can cos we will still be in marrage.

My wife is on PBS dependency visa of me since Jan 2014. What is the earliest time to apply for ILR for her? We are in divorce discussion but I still want to support her IRL even if we get a divorce. How will divorce impact the application? How can she still get IRL even if we divorce before Jan 2019?

thanks for your reply. Do you know anyone apply early and get visa? I just dont want to pay the fee and they reject me because i apply earlier. My wife will qualify ILR after 1 year so 3 year extension is quite enough for us.

I am on ILR via tier 1 general now and I want to extend PBS dependency visa for my wife, does anyone know when is the earliest time she can apply before her current visa expires? Her visa will expired on Feb 2018, is it possible to apply in person from Nov? The reason is that we are planning some tr...

I applied PBS visa on 19th Feb and got approved. But I still have not got BRP delivered so far. I called DX and they said it was not with DX yet. it is being more than 10 days now. It used to take a few days only for my previous BRPs. Anyone else have the same situation recently?

Many thanks! It is really useful!

hello, I'd like to apply for ILR for tier 1 general in Jan 2015. I am not very clear about what I should prepare for previous earnings, I plan to get: 1) pay slips for 2014 2) dividend vouchers for 2014 3) letter from my accountant to confirm my total income in 2014. What else information is require...

Extension is not an issue. ILR is issue in that case. Sticky on Tier-1 mentions it http://www.immigrationboards.com/uk-tier-1-general-visas/convictions-and-tier-1-general-extension-t88652.html The post is in 2011, has anything been changed now? If not, at least I will still be ok to extend my visa....

many thanks for your explanation! There are so many changes to visa rules and they are hard to fully understand!

so you mean dependent can still extend even after apr 2015 and apply for ILR after Apr 2018?

but if the parant has not got ILR yet, what visa can child have if he/she can not get dependent visa?

also if we have a baby after 5 apr 2015 and both of us have not got IFR by then, what visa can the baby have?

I see new rules of tier 1 general guide have: 2) With effect from 6 April 2015, Tier 1 (General) will close and applications to extend leave will no longer be accepted. Applicants who are currently in the UK and who wish to apply to extend their stay must submit an application on or before 5 April 2...

if it was fixed price penalty and there is no court involved than there is no criminal conviction. But if convicted by court, then depending on the offence you may have an unspent conviction. If you wish to, you can check for unspent convictions here. http://www.nidirect.gov.uk/accessni http://www....

I am about to apply IFR by Feb 2015 but I did silly things this year, using other's student oyster card on tfl journey. I was prosecuted by TFL and I think I am very likely to get a criminal record before next Feb. I dont think I can apply for IFR if I have such criminal record in past 2 years but c...
