PBS dependent to FLR(M) success!

Just thought I'd update all forum members that my application for FLR(M) was successful. Thanks to several posts (by forum members) and replies to my earlier post (by Mods?) for clarifications (& confusions) that helped me. Background: Moved here in June 2014 as PBS T1(G) dependent. Partner got ...

Re: PBS T1(G) dependent to FLR(M)?

Thanks again. Certainly the FLR(M) is cheaper than the PBS dependent route.

However my main concern is with the exception stated in the eligibility page. Does that not affect my FLR application since I moved here as a PBS T1(G) dependent?

Re: PBS T1(G) dependent to FLR(M)?

Thanks CR001.

From what I've looked up, I will have to apply twice to meet ILR eligibility.

Are there any specific advantages of switching to FLR(M) than staying on PBS? One foreseeable issue is what new rules UKIV would come up with to prevent extensions under PBS options in the future.

Thanks.
