Hi Ehasan bahi,
Can you confirm the dates with your friend that
what date his Mrs applied for her FLR(M)?
I am dead sure that she applied it beofre the 6th of April 2014,
and than could you also confirm with them that,
Did she received a 2 years visa on that FLR(M) ?
Yet again I am dead sure on that, that she received a 2 years visa.
If both of the above statements are correct than she was still covered under the transitional arrangements, any application after the 6th of April 2014, from a dependent of a settled person through long residency i.e 10 years long stay, have to apply FLR(M) through Appendix(FM) and I don't think that paragraph 287(a) is relevant any more.
If you can kindly confirm these dates for us, that will be great, as there are many members who can take advantage from your friends case, and this information is very relevant, especially to the dependents of settled person through 10 years long residency.
We will be eagerly waiting for your reply. Many thanks.
Kind regards

Hello Shahjee bhai,
I am confirming that both application made on 2013. So I was asking whether 287(a ) is still existing in home office policy or not.
Anyway, I will check the policy again or I will send email to Home office for confirmation.
Many thanks for your cordial cooperation.

Hello Shahjee bhai,
Now I have seen the updated rules (28th July 2014) and found that in immigration rules part 8, still 287a 1 d is existing and states that
"__(d) the applicant was admitted to the UK or given an extension of stay as the spouse or civil partner of a Relevant Points Based System Migrant; and then obtained an extension of stay under paragraphs 281 to 286 of these Rules and has completed a period of 2 years as the spouse or civil partner of the person who is now present and settled here."

Dear Shahjee bhai,
Have you seen the above mentioned policy at home office website? Do you have any suggestion for me?
Many thanks,
Ahmed
