@Vinny, Thank you very much its getting clear. Had she made an application pre-July she would've benefited from the transitional provision. Any other route to cut short this 5 yrs of limbo.

In that case D4109125's contribution is valid.
The case worker was wrong to refuse you ILR.
You can appeal the case if you paid a lot of money (get refund) and you will get your appeal costs refunded as well.
You had completed 2years as a dependent of PBS applicant.

seems bureaucratic to engage employer to certify your absences for all days you went out on holiday. if you can get the letter, thats fine, if you cant, whatever category you put (holiday/work-related annual leave) it doesnt matter. I personally think this will never be an issue as long as your days...

Congratulations! Just one question, you have mentioned you have a continous absence of 346 days, is this within your qualifying 5 year period? However in any given consecutive 12 month period you did not exceed 180 days? So for eg., someone enters uk in Feb 2008, then the rule is they shudnt have c...

Therefore, you should appeal the decision quoting 319E(d) stating that you were living as a spouse with the PBS applicant for 2+ years and had valid PBS dep leave when you applied therefore, the decision should be reconsidered and ILR granted. Assuming any absences were limited and for good reason....

As my wife will get new Biometic Residence Permit as a ILR, I am confused if it is right to check Tier 1(G), if you know what I mean. Why is not FLR(M)? As I will be applying for a...

You dont need FLR(M) or to apply for any extension.
You already have T1 Dep till May 2014, so continue with that. Then count 5 years from the day you were granted Tier1 Dependant leave (New rules) When the time reaches 5years, apply for ILR.
All the time you spend as PSW does not count to anything?
