Britis Citizen - Dependant Wife Status

Post by ricky123 » Mon Apr 06, 2015 7:54 pm

I cant find a suitable forum so posting my query here. If this is not a correct forum then can someone please point me to the right one. My spouse came to UK on dependent visa when I was on ILR now I have recently been naturalised. Does this affects my wife's visa status? Do I need to get her visa status change since I am now a British citizen. My wife has still 2 years remaining on her visa.

It is the same visa category : Spouse of person settled (ILR) / British Citizen. No change needed.

What are her visa start and end dates? When did she enter the UK?

If she came to the UK on a spouse of ILR holder visa then it should be vaild for 33 months, not 3 years. What was the issue/start date of her visa?
