She came to uk on student visa in 2007, She had her PSW from 2010 to 2011, then her t2 work permit from 2011 onwards, whil...

I m looking to apply for BC for my daughter, born 2013 in UK- when i was on my work permit, so was my wife. in 2014 i got my ILR. My daughter & wife are still dependants on my work permit. Given that its been an year on ILR for me, i am going to apply for BC, Every time i read the requirements f...

I had a good chat at length with the Solicitors. They are adamant that I cannot apply for my daughter in my set(o), they had actually spoken to Home Office for clarification. They said, It will be paragraphs 319 (A to K). Anyways, I completely agree the best thing would be to apply for her naturalis...

Thanks Vinni,

Having spoken to my company's in house solicitors they have come back and told me I cannot apply for my daughter ILR Via SET(o).

The reason they have was, it is only applicable(addition of children to set(o) as dependant) when both parents are applying at the same time.

>>> "After you're granted ILR, your UK-born child may also apply for ILR" >>>> I am planning to travel in a months time, as you know I am going to apply for my ILR. From the discussion it is clear that i CANNOT add my wife to this application. Can I add my daughter as a dependant to my ILR...

Thanks for the clarification, that is great !

Tried my best to read up but the UKBA way of explaining things still baffles me, if i add my wife to my tier 2 work permit as a dependant, then what would happen if I move to ILR - i understand she won't get an ILR straight away, i also saw 2.5 years + 2.5 years before eligible for ILR ? or provided...

Thanks for your reply, We have been living together since 2008, we can provide evidence of co habitation since that time. Would that make any difference ? If I make a separate application from outside UK, would I be able to add my wife as a dependant ? If I add my wife to my Tier 2 visa as a dependa...

I got my work permit 28 Oct 2008, and recently i moved jobs so switched to a tier 2 work permit July 2013, It is my understanding that i will be eligible to apply for ILR on completion of 5 year period (which is oct 28th 2013).

I am definitely not a Intra Company work transfer.

I moved into my work permit from Post Study Visa. My visa only says as resident permit. My company did sponsor my workpermit for 60 months.

I am looking at my letter as well, it doesn't clearly say what type of work permit.

I am a bit confused..

Hello Manci, Thanks for your advice. My current employer is making a big redundancy ! Fortunately, I have found another employer who is willing to sponsor COS for a new job. My workpermit with the existing employer ends nov 2013, by this time I should qualify for ILR. FOr a workpermit holder, issued...

Thanks Manci.. Really appreciate it ! I was worried on the money - maintenance front big time. Thanks for the word of caution from COS point of view. I need a change desperately from my current employer and was worried that I might have to wait for 6 months ! 3 months to save up money and 3 months n...
