My wife got her Tier1(g) dependent visa on 04/02/2014 and it is valid until 30/01/2016
on 16/01/2016 She will apply for extension and according to the statement below she will get three years extension which means her visa will end by 30/01/2019
The problem is in order to apply for ILR she will be expected to leave 5 years which means she should have a valid visa until 04/02/2019
My question is
Would missing 4 day be problem for her to apply ILR?
If So
Will she need to extend her visa just for 4 day and than re apply for ILR
Or
Since she can apply ILR 28 days prior to visa expiry would 30/01/2019 be acceptable to apply ILR
Most importantly should we mention this issue on her Tier 1 General extension appointment on 16/01/2016
Thanks a lot
We will grant leave in line with the expiry date of the PBS migrant’s (or main applicant’s) leave,
except where the PBS migrant has been granted indefinite leave to remain. In these cases, we
will grant you a period of three years leave. An application for further leave may then be made if
required to take you up to the applicable qualifying period for indefinite leave to remain.
