Oh dear..I'd want someone with better knowledge on this to answer.....timmoo wrote:Dear Babz,Babz wrote:Well, regarding your ILR application, I'll advice you apply asap,any time from 14/08/14, which is 28 days to your arrival date. Why? HO is so unpredictable. How would you feel if the category was abolished ,say, next week?...So there's no point waiting for your wife to complete her 10 years before apply.timmoo wrote:Dear All,
Currently I am on Tier-2 visa and my wife is on Tier-2 dependent visa. I complete my 10 years in UK on 11 Sep 2014, and my wife will complete 10 years on 29 Nov 2014 (she came about 1.5 months later to UK):-
1) Should I wait for my wife to complete her 10 years and then we apply for ILR same time, or is it okay for me to apply earlier (and her to apply in few weeks time)?
2) What documentation is required for Set(LR) application (we have all our previous passports with us)?
3) Thirdly, the application asks about the date of travels (in/out) of UK. Are we just required to put dates there, or do we also need to include any additional relevant documentation?
Many thanks in advance.
Since you have all your passports containing your visa stamps, that should do. And make sure you include your test of english lang and life in the UK test certs.
Regarding the dates of travel, the dates should be fine.No point including any additional documents
...All the best
Many thanks for the advice. I have already taken LIUK test, and have UK Masters degree to cover English language test, so I am all ready to apply end of this week.
Just to clarify if I understood correctly, sending my ILR application now will have no effect on my wife's situation (being my Tier-2 dependent). She would still be able to apply in Nov 2014 (i.e. when she completes her 10 years) ?
Kind regards,

Hi Miangee,Miangee wrote:Hi all members
Can some one help me out plz
I was granted ILR on 10 years in April and my wife was granted 2 years spouse visa in April 14 In old rules as she is here with me from last 7 years as student dependent so I want to apply my wife ILR as she already has passed 2 year period
I am confused as I went to a very well known solicitor who told me that she can't apply ILR and must need to wait end of two years as she was student dependent not tier 1 or tier 2 dependent so I double minded and don't want to lost money in shape of refusal
any one student has applied wife's ILR on same ground or situation or any senior Member plz shed on this and help me
Thanks

S. Akaram Bahi we need members with good sense of humour like you
Cool mind regards to your question, I would say please don't put them in a bag, as you can see the instructions clearly says that they want it in a resealable small envelope, not a plastic see through bag. Frankly things like this doesn't really matter much, the only thing is you have to make your application look presentable, so if you ask me I will prefer a small resealable envelope rather than a bag.
Kind regards

Questions:
1) Have I missed out any required documents?
2) I came into the country on the 16th September 2004. From what date can I send in my application?
3) If I will NOT be sending in any bank statements or utility bills do I still have to fill in Section 5 page 22 and 23 of SET(LR) form ?

Babz is right. You should apply for your ILR and it will not have any effect on your wife's situation. Its an individual application for yourself. Apply for her ILR when she is eligible in Nov.Babz wrote:timmoo wrote:Dear All,

However, from the little I know,it shouldn't affect your wife's situation.

Hi bharatsharma,bharatsharma wrote:Hello all , please help
I am in totally dilemma now since home office has brought the changes of forcing dependants to spend 5 years in order to get ILR. AS I am on Tier 1 General Visa which is expiring April 2016 and I will be completing 10 years next month September and was preparing for applying in Long residence visa category BUT this new changes mean that if I go for SET ( LR) route than my wife has to wait for 5 years to get ILR.
SO could you guys advise me whether should I apply for SET ( LR) next month or wait till April 2016 when my Tier 1 visa expire and apply under Tier 1 category for me and my wife. Which option is best? I am totally confused as I have been like many others waiting to complete my 10 years and apply for ILR. Please Advise.
