As he is not a PBS dependant, he may apply in this category . What is "B" saying? Hi Vinny, I think I misunderstood you. I thought my husband can't apply in that category because my last permit to stay before granted ILR was Tier 1 and he is not qualified for settlement yet. Okay, in summ...

See also partner of a British citizen or a person who is settled here . Hi Vinny, Thank you, I've read that. However this points raise question in my head http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/partners-families/citizens-settled/spouse-cp/can-you-apply/ You cannot apply in a partner ca...

A lot has changed since 2011. What category of Tier 2 is he on and when did he start? If he switches to spouse status, then his qualifying period (5 years) for ILR will be reset. Hi Vinny, Thank you for yor response. My husband holds Tier 2 since February 2012. Before that he was on overseas assign...

Thanks Vinny, So that means this leave me with 2 option since Tier 1 PSW -> ILE is not possible. As laid by sushdmeta. Option 1 : Tier 1 PSW -> Tier 1 dependant (my dependant) -> ILR (with the risk of being rejected for his period overseas) Option 2 : Tier 1 PSW -> Spouse Visa from inside UK, and l...

New update from me. I am finally get my ILR and my son received his Brisith citizenship certificate. Now, only my husband who is still on Tier-2. I wonder whether what kind of visa he can apply without switching outside the country? (my husband lived in UK with me since 2005, however never be my de...

Hi Senior Members, I'm planning to apply for the ILR by end of Feb and just had a question. 1. My wife and lil are in India - they both are on Tier 1 dependent visa till end of September 2. If I apply for an ILR in February and if the appl'n is succesful... Can my wife and lil one travel back to UK...

anyone could help?

Hello, I would like to ask some question about my child travel. me, my husband and my son are Indonesian passport holder. I am on Tier 1, my son is my dependant and my husband has his own Tier 2 visa. I am currently applying for my ILR. As my son born in the UK, I didn't see why he had to apply for ...

Hello all, it's been more than 2 weeks since I posted my application but the fee is not even deducted yet. Anyone has this problem? should I call them? 1. Current visa: TIER 1 GENERAL 2. Date of expiry of current leave: 21-06-2013 3. Application form used for ILR: SET (O) 4. Number of dependants app...

jessica_halida, what date you entered UK after getting HSMP ? 1). If you entered within 90 days of getting HSMP, you can apply 28 days before the 5th anniversary of your visa stamp date (Home Office issued the revised guidance for calculating 5 years in mid 2010 and now people can use HSMP visa dat...

Thank you sush

First of all I do apologise if this is a repeated topic. Background : me -> Tier 1 General (until april 2013), I lived and work in UK till date. son -> my dependant husband -> Tier 1 post study (until sept 2012) My husband has been out of UK since Sept 2010 and work overseas (he is not under PAYE so...

In my opinion, to be on the save side, you should maintain
£800+£533+£533

Just Relax. 1. Keep the letter for Biometric received from HO 2. Keep the Biometric enrollment number. I got my enrollment done by calling a phone number and they gave me the a number. That number you need to write in a square box which is there in you letter received from HO 3. Reach half an hour ...

Hello everyone. I am due to go for my biometric appointment today. I only prepare to take the invitation letter with me. However, I read in other forum that I need a form of photo ID (such as driving license?), but I am taking my 4 year old, and to be honest, I have no clue what is an equivalent pho...

the line seems quite clear to me - he is not employed in the UK or living in the UK. It may sound like a waste of money but if your husband wants to work outside the UK then this is probably the route you will have to go down as it will be evident from his passport and work history that he is not l...

The line is not very clear with my husband's job. He was interviewed in London, but on the last round of interview they decide since my husband has an Indonesian passport and asian language knowledge - which means he can work in asian country with no permit, plus Eurozone is not booming as much as a...

also, I am a bit curious, what's the benefit of applying ILR together rather than 2 separate application? (I presume this is what Sushdmetha suggesting on OPTION 1) is it incurring less fee?

Your spouse does not qualify for ILE because 281(i)(b)(i) is not applicable. You haven't got ILR and having been living with him outside the UK for at least 4 years ago. Hi Vinny, Ok, I probably misunderstood the rules. From what I read, this is what its implied. has been married to the sponsor for...

Option 1 : Your husband applies for entry clearance from outside the UK as dependant of PBS migrant before you apply for ILR, travels to UK as dependant and then you include him in your settlement application and provide evidences of cohabitation in the UK for at least 2 years preceding the applica...
