Thanks nzkells. But she is in Uk only 4 years and 4 monts months then how ILR LR .please guide if you have any information.Nzekells wrote:@Smiletanvir, have you considered ur wife applying for ILR LR in her own right? Most times, you'd find her qualifying period is quicker that way.
In OP's case, how would that be possible when the first entry in UK was in 2012?Nzekells wrote:@Smiletanvir, have you considered ur wife applying for ILR LR in her own right? Most times, you'd find her qualifying period is quicker that way.

No.
Since you applied for ILR under LR, she'll be eligible for settlement only after spending 5 years in the UK as spouse of a settled person or when she completes 10 years stay in UK (which ever is earlier).
She should have switched to FLR(M) as soon as you were granted settlement ... had she done that she would have become eligible for settlement in March 2020. Switching now means she will only be eligible in 2021.
Her period of stay in UK as PBS dependant got wasted because you applied for settlement under LR.
