Good news for dependant FLR(m) was issued incorrectly to 2.5 years visa under new rules.

Firstly, my wife came tier1 dependant before july 2012 and i got ilr based on 10 years long residency..on 2nd april And she applied dependant of mine through flr(m) 4th april 2014 before the rule changes.

But case worker gave her 2.5 years visa even though i explained on cover letter she falls in old rules.

Firstly i phone Ho as they send a e-mail to the relevant team , waited for a week no response then i wrote a letter directly to the case worker and explained the situation. And 2 days later i have received a letter from Cardiff peo as they apologised to me and requested to me to send the brp card back to them.

Hopefully that will help for the people who are in dark situation like me.

please seeking your kind help
am quite near to apply for ilr under 10 years long residency and that is why i am summing up everything and trying not making any mistake.i became victim of UKBA serious errors in 2010 when i applied for my tier4(student extention) details are as under.
1- my leave was expiring on 30-11-2009
2-i applied as on 29-10-2009(payment deducted)
3-got acknowledgement as on 13-11-2009
4- got biometrics invitation on 4-12-2009
5-23-03-2010 UKBA sent my form back and said its old version or not the right form fill another one and dont need to pay
6-filled the right form and sent it back to UKBA
7-in april again biometrics invitation and i had no option because might is right
8-20-5-2010 application was refused with no right of appeal pointed out that maintenance funds(was no problem either) are not sufficient and also pointed out that you made an out of time application on 31 of march 2010 while your leave to remain was expired on 30-11-2009
8-i had no option went to solicitor explained to him and he wrote to ukba explaining their series of mistakes and ask them to overturn decision or we will go to the high court.
about in mid or june or july 2010 they issued me with a biometrics for about three months as my course was finished in july 2010.

the thing which i wanna ask is that will the ukba will consider this as a gap as they used the term out of time application which was infact not and i did not reapplied and did not pay another fee.if they will still consider my previous application as an out of date application then i definately do not qualify for 10 years long residence or when the ukba overturned decision in my favour i am fine.Pls need help.Thanks you very much in advance

Hi kasriz,

I think e-mail didn't work at all, just write to the case worker direct by next day special delivery where u can track and HO knows it's recorded...just simple writing like my one...

I am writing to inform you my wife xxx applied settelement dependant under the form flr(m) on 4th of april before the rules changes to 6th april and she was issued visa incorrectly on the letter dated 12 may 2014 as she came in uk june 2011 under dependant of mine tier 1 general. I have granted ilr on 02/ 05/2014 hence she falls under old rules section 284

I threrefore request to you could u pls consider her visa wheather she can apply ilr uneer the form setm as she has already completed the transional period.

Best regards,

Send the proof of royal mail for flr(m) which u applied before 6th

Any help let me know

Hi Shez,
Don't be worried mate, it's not that late yet. Mine one took 23 days to arrive. The best you could do now is obviously to wait till Monday mail time and see if there is nothing than it is best to give them a call and chase it up. I hope that you get it by then. All the best mate.
Kind regards

Hi khani,
Thanks a lot for pointing out, looks like that some one have mistakenly put the date there. I am still waiting, Home Office was saying today that the status of application is still incomplete, frankly getting frustrated now :(
I am at work now, and couldn't change the Skydrive, if some one is kind enough to edit it for me,I will be thankful.
Many thanks again Khani, and my best to you and all members.

Hi Guys,

Today, I have received my approval letter and BRP card as well.

Thanks a lot to all the people on this forum and good luck to each and every one


Applied on 13/01/2014
Received Approval letter and BRP card 30/05/2014


The reason it took so late on my case coz HO has raised a query on my case on 25/04/2014 about my Degree, I have had to get my Degree verified by UKNARIC.. Thanks to UKNARIC as well they done my case bit quicker than their usual timeline as I have mentioned on the Cover Letter that I have only 28 days to submit my documents on the query raised by HO..


Its a big relief now....

Dear ILR102014, Why did they require your DEGREE to be verified by NARIC? Did you not provide any english language test certificate? I dont understand why they would require your degree to be verified thanks.

Hi all

I have received a letter from Home office regarding my wife FLR(M) application. I am just quoting the letter can anybody help regarding this.

''Thanks for your application for permission to stay in the UK

Although we would normally decide your application within 8 weeks from the date it was submitted,unfortunately this is not going to be possible in ur case.

This is because records show that you have an outstanding criminal prosecution.No decision will be taken on your application until this matter has been concluded.

A decision on ur application has been delayed as a result of your sponsor having an outstanding application for ILR.''

My wife never receive any notice regarding criminal prosecution?do anybody have any idea what is this?and how to check outstanding criminal prosecution??
