DLR is usually granted outside of immigration rules and at the discretion of the secretary of state, usually meaning there must have been something that you didn't qualify for them to give you a spouse visa but due to circumstances it was granted as DLR.jib091 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2017 6:38 am1st DLR granted when I applied for spouse visa but they granted me discretionary leave just because I was newly married. application wasn't refused I was given DLR instead of spouse visa.
2nd DLR granted as an extension because of family life in UK.
My Kids and wife we all live together. nothing changed
That's All I have got in my immigration history.
Thanks CMOSUK i was granted first DLR in June 2011. I understand your point wording are same on first letter as you said above but i have gone through the letter from HO to see if any word mentioning refusal etc... The letter of Certification so that you must appeal from outside the UK and Statement of Additional Grounds was attached with biometric enrollment letter.CMOSUK wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2017 7:41 amDLR is usually granted outside of immigration rules and at the discretion of the secretary of state, usually meaning there must have been something that you didn't qualify for them to give you a spouse visa but due to circumstances it was granted as DLR.jib091 wrote: ↑Fri Sep 15, 2017 6:38 am1st DLR granted when I applied for spouse visa but they granted me discretionary leave just because I was newly married. application wasn't refused I was given DLR instead of spouse visa.

Have a look at your paperwork there must be a notice of refusal that would Indicate why it may have been refused.
For example my wife came on a spouse visa successfully on 2009 but before her visa was to run out and due to some circumstances we couldn't apply for ILR but we applied for FLR (o), she was refused on the grounds of not having an English language test certificate as was required per her visa conditions but was granted DLR based on family life.
Basically her visa category changed.
Also, when we're u granted DLR the first time?
This is very Important as those granted DLR before 9 July 2012 come under the transitional arrangements.
I could be wrong though, but then again there had to be some reason for HO granting DLR as then if the application wasn't refused they should have granted the spouse visa.

All documents english language, Life in UK test and all relevant documents bills, salary slips, p60, bank statement, marriage certificate, kids birth certificate, letter from employer , character reference , 2 x DLR letters everything was sent with application. so i don't know what else they require baffled to be honest.
