You can apply for your wife and daughter at a later date. Preferable to apply for wife and daughter at same time. Where was your daughter born (country)?Vrishank_12 wrote:ALso , wanted to check if i can apply for PR in April , i can apply for my wife little later (June July) and then for my daughter a little later due to financial issues.
If I get my PR and not apply for my dependants , their Tier 1 dependancy visa (valid till 2017 Oct) does not make any sense ? or will it it be still vvalid ? .Will It will be mandatory for me to apply for them together with my application ?
Yes.Vrishank_12 wrote:so In 2016 May , will I fulfil the 5 year qualifying period.
Incorrect. You period of continuous stay starts from May 2011 when you first entered the country. Even if you hd been unemployed until Jan 2012 that would not matter as you entered on a Tier 1 General visa.haiksuresh wrote:Legally your eligibility period will start from Jan 2012.
Just because your continuous residence was broken due to excessive absence in a given 12 month period in the preceding years of stay in UK "doesn't make your case any different" with regards to how points for age are calculated for settlement as a Tier 1 G migrant.Vrishank_12 wrote: I understand its always the age at first entry but my case is little different as ILR eligiblility period is calculated from 2011
Why do you think so? A statement from NARIC is a mandatory requirement for ILR applications post 6th April 2016 and just a letter from the university will not do (alongside PBS calculator summary sheet), even if used in the past successfully for extension applications . This is mentioned in Q3 in the FAQ link(click) provided by geriatrix in the earlier comment with a reference to the UKVI publication(click) that states this.Vrishank_12 wrote:Thanks guys , I am reading

This page tells you how an applicant can meet the knowledge of language and life (KoLL) in
the UK requirement.
A person must meet the requirement by:
passing the Life in the UK test
and one of the following:
having a speaking and listening qualification in English at B1 level or above of the
Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR)
having a degree that was taught in English
being a national of an English-speaking country
If i am not wrong , I think point 2 is the one that matters ? point 3 in NARIC ?
I have a letter from university that my degree was taught in English and so for my wifeas well which has been used for both the extensions (Tier 1 extended twice).
This thing is really confusing , However , to prevent any risks , I have taken NARIC , will submit an NARIC application for my wife as well ,
I still dont think this is needed , but just a safety thingy .. Please let me know what you think
