Thanks Amber for your prompt reply, This comes as a shocker to me as I had some incorrect information may be.
I thought being a Tier 1 General dependent since January 2011 she will only need to stay on FLR M for 2 more years as she already completed 3 years as a tier 1 general dependent. (Jan 2011 - April 2014) and will be eligible to apply for ILR after completing 2 more years on FLR (M) in April 2016 . which I thought was wrong .
Changing to FLR (M) and wait for another 5 years means she will be eligible for ILR in 2019, Please correct me if i am wrong.
Is there any other options for her please ?
Going through immigration rules i came across with this: does she not come under transitional provisions at A280 (c) as per below
Applicants who were granted leave to enter or remain as a PBS dependant before 9 July 2012, whose PBS partner gained indefinite leave to remain on the basis of long residence can under transitional provisions at A280 (c) apply for further leave under Part 8 of the Immigration Rules.
Thanks
