Hi, Need some help once again please. I was granted ILR in July last year. My wife was granted the first dependent visa (Tier-2 PBS dependent) in Dec 2009. Later she was granted as Tier-1 General (PBS) dependent in Aug 2011. We've been living together since we came to the UK i.e. Jan 2010. I'm submi...

Thanks a lot Malik44.

I'm booking the exam now.

Thanks.

Sorry CR001 for another question, a little confused.
You've suggested she should pass level B1 which is the exam itself. However the exam has 2 sections, Topic and Conversation.

Does score in individual topic matter or HO will consider the overall score?

Thanks.
Pranav

Thanks a lot for all the replies.

Can I use the provisional certificate for a PEO appointment?

And Does the passing level matter? I mean in score in Topic and Conversation section?

Thanks.
Pranav

Yes, her LIUK is done.
How difficult is SLET B1 test?

Thanks.

Thanks for your reply. The trouble is my wife's visa expires on 19th of this month. I won't have enough time to get a letter from University and submit it to UK NARIC. When I applied for my Tier-1 I never submitted such letter from NARIC. I just gave my masters degree original certificate and it wor...

Hi, My wife was granted leave to remain as Tier-1 General (PBS) dependent in August 2011 and this was successfully renewed in 2013 too. She is now applying for ILR next week. She has a Masters degree from University of Pune, India - M.Com. Do I need to get a UK NARIC certificate to prove if this was...

Thanks CR001, Mohramzan.

Does this mean I don't have to submit payslips and bank statement for last 12 months.
I know there is no maintenance fund requirement so that should hopefully be okay.

Thanks.

Thanks a lot for a quick reply.

I didn't apply via HSMP route so I suppose it will be Tier-1 Dependent.
And which means no Section -9, correct?

Thanks.

Hi, My wife would be applying with our son for ILR later this month. She was previously granted leave to remain as Tier-1 General (PBS) dependent. Hence she is now applying via form SET-O. I'm confused with the form and need some help please. 1. Is she now the main applicant on the form? 2. Which se...

Thanks for a quick reply. I'm already settled here in the UK as Tier-1(G) PBS. And that's the confusion. So if my wife had extended her visa after my ILR she would have used FLR(M) and in future SET(M) for settlement. However currently she is on Tier-1 General (PBS) dependent, she should use SET(O) ...

Hi, Need some urgent help please. I came to the UK with my wife and Son in Jan 2010 as Tier-2 (ICT). I later switched to Tier-1 (General) and last year in August 2015 I got my ILR. My wife and son had applied for an extension as Tier-1 PBS dependent in 2013. They were granted 3 years extension which...

Thanks a lot for your quick reply, this is a big relief.

Thanks.

Hello, I'm planning to apply for my wife's ILR next month (Feb 16). I'll be applying via post. Her current passport is valid until 15 June 2016 however her current leave to remain is valid till 31st March 16 (Tier-1 dependent). I've already got ILR last year. Should I apply for a new passport before...

Hi, Do you have letter from HO when you were granted your last Tier-1 extension? If your earnings are not reduced and you fall in the same age range, you can submit that as a proof of points claimed. Just make sure you explain it well in covering letter. If your earnings are same or more and age is ...

HI, No need to renew your wife's visa as long as she is eligible for ILR with you in March 2016. Make sure she satisfies all necessary requirements for ILR dependent before March 2016 such as Life in UK test, English Language requirement, co-habitation requirement etc. You have bear in mind HO might...

Yes, I agree. This has been a stressful time for a lot of us.

It is worth checking for PEO appointments, some PEOs are working on Saturday too. If not send your application by post. Some post offices are working on Saturday.

Yes, that's correct form.

All the best.

Thanks.

You don't need tickets. It's Home Office, if they want they can cross check your travel. If you have already mentioned this on the application and have also given a covering letter then I think you should be fine. Just want to check couple of things....these 155 days were you employed or self-employ...

As suggested earlier if you want to cover the "what if" outcome of ILR application, get an extension before 5th April (next week-end) so that you can continue to be in the country for some more time to deal with the "what if" situation.

I think this is the only way.

Thanks.

Hi,

I'm not sure if you are required to submit copy of online PBS calculator. Also, the PBS calculator is applicable under certain categories only.
You can find it here https://www.points.homeoffice.gov.uk/gu ... ment.faces

All the best.

Thanks.

Hi, This is catch-22. If you apply now at PEO and later at ILR, it would be double fees but you get peace of mind. If you don't apply for extension now, go for ILR direct and in case of any issues you may not have alternative. I got my Tier-1(G) renewal at PEO even though I know I'm eligible for ILR...

Hi, How many days out of 155 were in last 12 months? It could be a time consuming task but could you not look-up on your passport for stamps to work-out almost correct in & out of country dates? I haven't applied for ILR yet however have read a lot of posts on this forum. I think as long as your...

Hi,

I applied at Croydon PEO on Monday 23rd for my Tier-1(G) extension. My extension was granted the same day, and I got the BRP in post on Wed, 25th afternoon.

Which PEO would you be going.

This could be too late, hope this this helps.

All the best.

Thanks.

Hi, I agree with hsmp_apr2010. And for the same reason I got my Tier-1 (G) extended at Croydon PEO earlier this week, got extns. for 3 years. I think I have a straight case for ILR later this year, however didn't want to take chances. Now one can argue that I wasted PEO money etc. however I think I ...
