On the application I did not fill Financial Requirements 7(A) instead I completed Manitenance 7(B) despite my salary is way over the financial requirements. My wife has been here since 2008 on spouse of IGS, PSW and T1 (General). I was worried they'll ask me why I didn't complete section 7(A) as it is a requirements according to new rules. But they didn't ask us any question and took only 20 minutes to make their decision. On the letter it states, you may now stay two more years and after two years you can apply for ILR. So it's definitely treated under old rule.
So keep your hope but it completely depends on individual case worker and how they interpret the new rules!
One question, can my wife apply for ILR now or she has to wait two more years?
congrats my wife got the same visa on 03/06/2014 and my appointment for ilr booked for tomorrow.
