Hi, I switched from Ancestral to Spouse in 2010. So it is definitely possible, in your case though, the timing will be the main thing as I was not an Ancestral Dependent but my own Ancestral Visa as it was the cheaper option at the time we moved to the UK compared to the cost of a spouse of british ...
No, you don't have to declare it, I certainly didn't declare my debt in my home country and was approved for BC. Just make sure you have no CCJs in the UK.
You need to declare any CRIMINAL convictions, for traffic offences or more serious offences.
Another point to bear in mind is that the rules change all the time, Ancestry is one that hasn't really been touched as yet, but could in the future. You should focus on getting the initial visa first, with the docs and maintenance funds required, then once you are here and well into your residency ...
Why would you apply for an extension when you can apply for Indefinite Leave to Remain after 5 years on initial visa. Previously extensions were required when Ancestry visas were only issued for 4 years, so people HAD to extend to make up 5 years residency requirement for ILR. This was changed and t...
However, you have recently asked about extending???? http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?p=746066&highlight=#746066 It would help if you keep your posts to one topic then you will get the best help. There isn't too much info on here about Ancestry and I got mine from SA without any pr...
You have already posted your question earlier today in another topic : http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?t=120290 Please keep your questions in the same topic especially if they are the same question.

your wife did not enter as the spouse of a person settled in the UK, you were on a Tier visa.. You have recently been granted ILR as a Tier migrant, she is a tier migrant and needs to apply on Set(O) http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/settlement/findtherightform/work http://www.ukba...
Set(M) is for a person that was granted a visa (FLR(M) or VAF4) and has spent two years in the UK as the spouse of a settled person or British Citizen, not spouse of a work permit of Tier visa main applicant. She needs to apply on Set(O) for ILR under the 'other' category as her CURRENT visa is a Ti...
Also, Kaybom, the requirement is to still be married, separated is acceptable, but hopefully divorce proceedings have not started as that might complicate your application.
