Spouse visa

[MrGB25]

Hi,
my husband has been here on a 2year and a bit spouse visa and we are just unsure if we can apply now for a ILR next? I know which form to use and i know he needs to pass the life in uk test and the B1 level of english.Are there any other requirements that i would need to know before applying?
Thanks a lot

When did he apply for his spouse visa and what are the visa start and end dates?

Was he in the UK before being on a spouse settlement visa? If yes, what was his visa status?

he entered uk on a spouse visa.The dates were mar14 to jan17.Just not sure if ILR is the next step altho we are pretty sure it is.Hope you won't reply saying its not...

As CR001 isn't online at the moment, I'll answer for you. Unfortunately, assuming your husband applied for his spouse settlement visa after 9th July 2012 (which it appears he did), he will have to extend his limited leave to remain for a further 2.5 years. This will be on form FLR(M) and the NHS surcharge of £500 is also payable in addition to the visa fee. He needs 5 years of residence before qualifying for ILR.

Okay thank you very much for your answer.At least now we know for sure what to do next.
One more question now that we know which way do i go about deleting my account on here?
Thank you again
