Thanking u in advance,

Seniors, could someone please clarify? This isn't mentioned anywhere.

Hi, Does this mean can I apply for ILR for my kid who is 10 months old and came to UK just months ago?

My ILR would be based on WP+Tier1

Hi Friends,

What would happen to the dependents with dependent visa when I switch to ILR? As my dependents (wife/kid) haven't completed 2 years in UK, so was curious to know what would happen to their existing dependent visa, will it still be valid?

z.yas I don't think my dependents can apply along with me now as the requirement for them to apply is that they need to be in UK for atleast 2 years.

Hi seniors any help is much appreciated. Please reply.
