Congratulations moonway.
However this if for anyone applying in person for FLR(M). How would one convince the caseworker if you apply by post ?

I suspect that if both PEO's that granted FLR(M) under part 8 from PBS dep were Glasgow, that is where the problem is, rather than a myth.

No moonway got his FLR(M) from Glasgow and rajamahbub had his PEO for FLR(M) at Croydon.

Are the PEO case workers so ignorant of new rules?
or
Is it anything discrete?
Don't they have systems in place to check whether the applicant is eligible or just rely on case workers knowledge of new rules?
If one is able to get it and others are not able to, then this is not a proper rule.

If caseworkers are allowing such claims, then it is advantageous for people to try it and see if it works, whilst it lasts.

Re: pre july 2012 PBS dependants - Petition
by imraheel » Fri Jun 06, 2014 7:56 am
New rules say that partner of ilr long residence need to get flr m visa accrding to appendix fm. But appendix fm does not say that partner has to stay five years on flr m visa. I am confused. Where are these five years coming from? Can anyone comment on this? Regards.
I also agree with imraheel because before 6 April LR dependents could apply for ILR on same day with FLRM n ILR but HO have changed that now n you have to apply for FLRM first n then get another appointment to apply for ILR and 5 years is not mentioned anywhere under these circumstance.

Under Appendix FM the qualifying period for settlement is 5 years under those rules.

That's your interpretation and I am afraid I don't agree with that because I have read appendix fm and statement of changes and there is a lot of doubt about the rules n also there is no change in guidance notes so I think u should not just reject it as it is a mistake from HO because it causes more confusion. Let's leave it to the HO and more people will post there experience soon if not then I promise u I will update Ur knowledge on this issue in a few weeks when I go to HO myself.

Hi moonway;
Would you be kind enough and upload the Flr(M) approval letter to help us all. Of course you can omit applicant's name and case ref no.

Thanks Amber for your reply.
Amber, can you please advise me that where is it written in Appendix FM that settlement qualifying period is 5 years? I read whole whole Appendix FM but I could not find it. Can you please advise me?
Regards,
Raheel

Where does it say pre July 2012 candidates can't use time spent as partners to qualify for ILR?

It doesn't, however; you'd need leave under Part 8 to rely on 287(a)(i)(d) which is prohibited by the amendments.

This is joke. Im angry at Home office. One of my friend did fill section 7B and his income was over 18,600 and her wife also spent 31 months on pbs dependant visa issued in april 2012.. And his wife visa was refused becos he was suppose to fill 7A... This is joke that home office takes thousands of pounds from us and dont give us clear information

@kashiqbal
What is the reason of refusal? Did they give as a statement on the refusal letter?

I think it may be that a few caseworkers may not be aware of recent changes, sadly at the Home Office training is never high on the agenda.

To be honest, i dont know what to do but there is onething we should be searching for and that is whether the time spent on T1 pbs dependant visa will be amalgamated or not? We need Appropriate paragraph for those whose married partner got ilr on the basis of 10 yrs long residency.... But for those, whose partners r switching first time in spouse category should avoid filling up 7B as pbs dependant category is different from spouse, no matter how long u have been married for

Once you get the FLR(M) under new rules, the clock resets for 5 years. That is the worst part of this new rule.
