@Shekharaca81 I do not think there is any rules regarding absence on dependents. Show all evidence from 2010 and 2011 and recent 2012. If I were you, I would submit cohab documents from the time she is with you till now. As many as I have. The requirement is 5-6 documents from 3 different sources, I...

@ asiantiger

I submitted them myself. It just shows that you were economically active and in line with immigration rules as per your leave specially if you have some amount of time as WP holder.

See here for details

Hi All, Applied today afternoon and approved. I will update with details later. No questions were asked. As a backup I wrote a comprehensive letter with supported documentation if I was asked about the questions above. I will share the contents of the letter along with the UKBA docs I referred. @She...

Vinny you are a star.

Thanks for the link. I have see that page which is the current formulation of the rules. These were written differently prior to 9th July. I am looking for a link somewhere in the archives about the previous formulation.

Hi

I am not able to find the rules under 319E that were in force before 9th of July on the UKBA website. I am sure they keep archives somewhere.

It will be very helpful for a senior member to kindly point me to the same if it exists?

Thanks and regards

Thanks a lot wpilr_nov12 for your comments so far.

Can you please confirm if the rules 319 a-g are correct pre 9th July 2012?

Can I find the previous rules on the UKBA website as archive link?

Thanks again for the reply. In another post you mention the following about the continuous interpretation: Your interpretation is slightly off. It means from the time she was last granted PBS dependent visa pre 9 jul12, she should continue to remain in PBS dependent status, and in her case the resid...

Thanks a lot for the suggestion, which I will try but hoe does it help. The rules should be interpreted and applied coherently, isn't it?

Any response about my query on how the term 'continuous' is interpreted for pre July applicants?

Thanks a lot for the response wpilr_nov12. PEO: Sheffield Expiry in May 2014. Given the way rules keep changing and fees are raised I am applying as soon as I am eligible in Jan 2013. Thanks a lot for the link. I will take a printout for the PEO appointment. But it refers to 319E old rules. My secon...

319E d states (i) If the applicant was granted leave as: (a) the Partner of that Relevant Points Based System Migrant, or (b) the spouse or civil partner, unmarried or same-sex partner of that person at a time when that person had leave under another category of these Rules under the Rules in place ...

Hi all, Very confused with a recent comment ( http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewtopic.php?p=398787#398787 ) by Vinny when he said that 'continuos' requirement has been recently added. I have PEO appoint in first week of Jan 2013 and hence in panic. Applying under Tier 1. Married in 2007 in UK whi...

Thanks a lot for the quick response. Very helpful indeed

I am eligible for ILR in Jan and will apply with my wife who is on dependent visa. I have read the extensive FAQ and understand all the details about the both of us. Thanks to the moderators for this. My child was born in the UK and is also a dependent on my Tier 1 which is valid till 2014. I am not...
