I think it's form SET(M) you need mate. This is for ILR ie Permanent Residence. Form FLR(M) is the one you filled in last no need to apply for that again.Loopy wrote:My wife came over with a visa to get married within 6 months, we got married the visa then got switched to a 2 year spouse visa. 2 years later we no have to get an ILR; this is the stage we're at now and applied this week by post.
question is, what if she gets refused? is she allowed to apply for an FLR(M)? This (slightly rude and arrogant) guy on the phone when i rung up the home office helpline reckons the FLR(M) is only for extensions in some kind of emergency or cicrumstance (can't remember what examples he gave) but he basically said we wouldn't be able to apply for itif she got rejected for the ILR.
Apparently, she would have to either appeal (if allowed to) or go back to her home country and reapply for another 2 year spouse visa!!! Which makes no sense at all!
why MIGHT she get rejected you ask? Well, we are unable to provide evidence for some of the months of the 2 years to proove we lived together apart from covering letters of the landlord where we lived and the our GP at the time. Has anyone else experienced this and should I be worried?
Any help would be greatly greatly appreciated...we love each other so much, and its gut renching and heart breaking when i think about how we may be forced apart on two sides of the world..and then to have to endure going to the embassy in her home country again were some of them are on power trips. :(
Umm...nope! No benefits there! But you better learn mandarin (or cantonese or hakka or wherever she's from)!Loopy wrote:thats just it, shes missing documented evidence such as a bank statement in her name and at the same address as me for a fair few months - the only thing we have got that ties us phycially to that address duing those months is a letter ofrom the home office to her giving her her passport back with the new 2 year visa, a covering letter from our landlord (with additional proof he owns the property) to say we lived there and also a covering letter from the GP at the time.
yeah, she passed her knowledge in life test. plus im a uk born and bred citizen (if that has any bearing).
She's from China.
