I am Sri, I am currently holding a Tier1 visa and my wife is on Tier 1 Dependant visa, both of which are valid till Oct 2016. I will be applying for ILR in two months (July 2015). However, my wife has first arrived to UK in April 2013, and as per the rules which states that she will need to complete 5 years in UK in order to get ILR for her. I would like to know if once I receive my ILR, will her Tier1 dependent visa still be valid up to next year Or will her visa become invalid after my visa type changes and do I need to apply for ILR dependent visa this July 2015 itself. Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Sri
No issues as long as their visas are valid when they return to the UK.but will there be any issue when they travel to India and return as they are no more Tier 1 PBS dependant.
It depends on when the dependent visa was applied for. If before 9th July 2012 it is two years. If after this date, it is 5 years.qhussain wrote:Hi All,
Just as curiosity, Does dependent(Tier 1 General dependent) has to be in UK for 5 years to qualify for ILR?
I thought, The dependent(spouse) has to be in UK for two years to be able to qualify for ILR?
