Hi, I just want to ask if anyone know or has done this. My wife's FLR(M) application was refused and we appeal which is pending at the moment. Can she travel back to home country and then come back to the UK while the appeal is pending. We applied before the visa expired so the application was an in...

Hi Would anyone be kind provide some information from their experience Please see timeline below I am on ILR and I tried to extend my wife's visa Spouse dependent Visa extension filed - 01/03/2016 (this is in time application as filed before expiry) Dependent visa expired - 06/03/2016 Visa applicati...

Well, I made an appeal. Let's see what happens. Do we need to notify the Home office that we have filed the appeal? Do we need to notify anyone apart from our application which we sent to the tribunal? I believe the Tribunal needs the original documents and not just the copies of the documents? Than...

Yes, visa has expired on 7th March 2016. I am not intending to do both but just want to make sure that i can re apply within these 14 days. I dont want to be in a situation where I dont appeal in 14 days and instead make a fresh application in 14 days and then been told by home office that I couldn...

Hi My Wife's ILR-Dependent application which we filed on 1st March 2016 has been refused on 7th April 2016. We got the refusal letter on 9th April 2016. Refusal reason is lack of evidence of english requirements. we are given 14 days to appeal which ends next week on 21st April. I am confused betwee...

Can we add more documents during the appeal process? If we didnt provide the UK Naric certificate and the application has been refused then can we add the UK Naric during the appeal? I still think the print out of the PBS calculator should had been accepted as evidence as the application was filed a...

But she made the application before 6th April. The application was received on 1st March by home office, it is mentioned in the refusal letter summary of timelines. Secondly, if we do the UKNARIC now, will it be accepted during appeal? I ask as it will be done AFTER the refusal decision. Are amendme...

If we get her degree verified by UKNaric now, will it be accepted during the appeal process? what should we put in the appeal? is the print out of PBS calculator not sufficient? does my wife need to give an english test or do we get the degree verified by UKNARIC? is she allowed to take the test now...

I didn't extend the tier 1 general visa as the fees were quite different and also she would need two extensions anyway before completing 5 years. She came to UK in June 2014 and would have needed two extensions before completing 5 years. The PBS indeed show 10 points for her degree and is available ...

Hi

I was on Tier 1 general for 5 years so got my ILR via that in Feb 2016.

My wife's visa was expiring on 7th March 2016 but we made the application which was received by home office on 1st March 2016 as it is stated in their letter.

Thanks

Hi I applied for my wife's dependent visa based on my ILR visa. Earlier she was on Tier-1 dependent visa and I got ILR earlier this year so we decided to switch her to ILR-dependent and filled the FLR(M) application. Her application has been refused stating that she doesnt meet english language requ...

Hi, I have got my ILR now and now applying for my wife's visa extension. My situation Tier1 Gen - 2011 to 2016 and now ILR. My Wife - Tier 1 PBS dependent ending March 2016 I am planning to get her the FLR(M) extension as she is anyway going to need two extensions till her own ILR. I am not worried ...

Hi CR, thanks for your detailed replies. So if my wife switches to ILR dependent (FLR(M)) this year, she will complete her 5 years requirement for ILR in 2021. There is a rule that says Tier 1 to ILR is stopping from August 2018. I am assuming this doesnt affect her ILR as the rule is for main appli...

2. As ILR for Teir 1 General is being stopped from Apr 2018, will that impact the dependents as well? Because she will complete her 5 yrs as a PBS in Aug 2018. Does this mean that a person who has started their stay her in UK as ILR dependent after Aug 2013 will not be able to apply for ILR after c...

Thanks for the reply CR001. Just a clarification, I read so many places that if I get ILR then my wife has to switch to FLR(M) as she will then become family/spouse of a person settled in UK and not the current tier 1 dependent. How can she extend her stay without switching to FLR(M). At the moment ...

Hi, My ILR is due next month which I will apply for. I have been on Tier 1 for last 5 years. 5 Years completing in March 2016. I understand that i can apply 28 days around the deadline so will do that mid next month. My wife has been living with me for last one and a half years, since June 2014. Her...
