3f You need cohabitation documents ideally in joint names (or individual names but same address but top it up then) for the last 2 years. 3/4 different sources covering last 2 years evenly i.e. every 3/4 months. Like tenancy agreement, council tax, bills etc. Hi, I submitted my application this mor...

Thanks very much for your response. Appreciated

Hello all, I need some help with my submission for ILR application. My case :- My wife acquired T2 general visa in Mar 2015. At that time i was on T2 ICT. I became her dependant in Sep 2015. My wife then received her ILR in Apr 2020. Since i had not completed my 5 yrs on the "current" visa...

Hi, thanks for the response. For q3, when I fill address, system says if applicant had stayed there for 5 years. If I say no, it asks for other addresses. If I say yes, it won't be true, hence wanted to check how I should go about it.

Hello, can someone answer please

Hello, My wife has recently acquired her ILR, i am still on WP and our son was born in UK in 2018. Our son has an Indian Passport. My understanding is we will first have to register our son as UK citizen before we can apply for his British passport. I am therefore completing his MN1 form. I have few...

Hi, are you able to advice please?

Thanks much.

Finally, I hope my application won't be rejected due to this? And do you recommend I prepare a cover letter to confirm that I don't really need 5 year extension and it was done in error?

Thanks very much for the response. Is there any point of contacting home office to get some guidance? As far as I can see on the application there is no where to see that I have applied for xx years extension. I think once I am routed to pay the surcharge that's where there's a field (that's not ver...

Hi all, Need some urgent help please.. I just submitted my application to extend my dependant visa. I requested this extension under tier 2 pbs dependant category as mentioned above. I think somehow I have requested a 5 year extension instead of 3 as I was asked to pay £2000 as IHS fees. Is there a ...

Hi all,
Thank you for your advice, my wife received her ilr today. Can I apply for my visa extension today or will I have to wait for my wife to receive her brp?

I need to learn how to use the quotes properly, but here's what I was trying to say with regards to the additional document- "Hi, sorry if I am going tangent here but all those sections talk of the scenario where you are currently on maternity. My wife was on maternity about 18 months ago and j...

Hi, regarding the additional documentation that is required due to loss of pay in maternity, my understanding after reading section 242 of the form is that it is acceptable to be absent of work without pay on statutory maternity leave? Please can you guide me to specific section which talks about a...

Regarding the 3rd question on countries I lived in, shall I say India upto the point my wife travelled to UK and then continued to live in UK or shall we rather leave this as blank?

Hi, regarding the additional documentation that is required due to loss of pay in maternity, my understanding after reading section 242 of the form is that it is acceptable to be absent of work without pay on statutory maternity leave?

Apologies. Corrected

Hi all, My wife is about to apply for her ILR via T2 General visa route. We have few questions and will appreciate your response : 1. My wife was on maternity leave 2 yrs ago for about 10 months and for one of those month she did nothing received any salary at all (and she received SMP for couple mo...

Just clarifying point 2:

2. My wife was on maternity leave for about 10 months, out of which for 1 month she did NOT get any pay at all. Is that classed under Leave without pay? And if so, should we clarify that within the employment letter as well?

Thanks all for your helpful responses, just couple more clarifications please : 1. My understanding is that I can submit the app 4 weeks before end of 5 years from start of the tier 2 visa. Is that right? 2. My wife was on maternity leave for about 10 months, out of which for 1 month she did it get ...

Correct. You can apply together, but it is simpler if she has ILR first and then you apply. She can apply within 28 days before the 5th anniversary of her initial visa issue date. Thanks. Can I also check please if I can initiate my wife's ilr application prior to 28 days as long as the submission ...

You simply extend your existing PBS dependent visa for 3 years. Do NOT switch to FLR m spouse of ilr holder visa as this will reset your 5 year clock to zero. Hello, can I confirm please that I should apply for extension only once my wife have had her ilr done? I am assuming I can't extend prior to...

Thank you so very much for your responses. Much appreciated.

I went online on Gov.uk website just to check what option i will have to apply against and i got confused. Can you advise please what category of application i must apply against?

[/quote] You simply extend your existing PBS dependent visa for 3 years. The rules also state that a PBS dependent extension will be for 3 years if the main visa holder has ilr. You cannot apply for less than 3 year visa. https://www.immigrationboards.com/immigration-for-family-members/dependants-of...

Thanks, sorry if this is daft question but I will be on 5th year on my current dependant visa. I had assumed maximum stay on current visa ca...

Many thanks, appreciated. So I can become dependant of my wife while she will have her ilr and I can apply for ilr in Sep 2020. Is that right?
