Tier 2 (G) to Spouse Visa

Post by shady87 » Fri Jan 30, 2015 1:04 pm

Hi All,

I'm currently on T2G and want to move to a Spouse Visa.
My Details;
Tier 4 Student - 2011 - 2013
Tier 2 General - 2013 - 2016
Got Married 2015

I'm confused about 2.3
This part of the form is confusing and any help will be appreciated.
Section 2 - Under which category are you applying for
leave?

2.1 Please tick a box below to show us the category in which you are applying for an extension
of stay in the UK and to confirm that you are also applying for a biometric immigration document.

Spouse of a person present and settled in the UK and a biometric immigration document.

2.2 Is this the first time you have applied for a visa or extension of stay in one of the above
categories (including previous leave granted as a fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner) with your
current sponsor?

Yes

2.3 Please indicate what stage of extension of leave you are applying for or why you are
choosing to extend your current leave in one of the above categories.

First period of leave to remain (following an initial period of entry clearance as a partner of a
settled person, or following an initial period of entry clearance as a fiancé(e) or proposed civil
partner of a settled person - 6 months)

Second period of leave to remain (following initial grant of leave to remain).
You are making a first application from within the UK but have not previously had leave to
enter/remain as a partner.

Or
You delayed your travel to the UK by more than 3 months after the issue of a visa, and have
not yet completed the relevant period of time in one of the categories at question 2.1

You require further leave to remain to obtain the relevant qualifications to meet the
Knowledge of Language and Life in the UK (KoLL) requirements to apply for indefinite leave
to remain.

You were granted entry as a fiancé(e) or proposed civil partner, but have not yet married or
entered into a civil partnership. Please explain why in the box below and state when your
marriage or civil partnership will take place.

This seems most applicable?
