Spouse status/ Extension from T2Dependent if main applicant from.T2General to ILR

Post by Sana_ » Tue May 15, 2018 8:56 pm

Hi team
I wanted to ask the forum a question

I am on Tier 2 General and would be completing 5 years in July 2018
I am due to apply for ILR thereafter
However there are two things I am highly concerned about ( apart from my own application of course )

1.My husband is on Tier 2 Dependent since Jan 17 which expires in Aug 2019 - how does he proceed ie extend his Visa when my Visa status changes ?
Does he have to return to our native country and reapply?
Have lived together since which is around 1.5 years ( Called ukvi they were very vague as usual ) kindly advise and post a link if possible ,for reference

2.My daughter was born in the UK around 3 months ago ( would she need to apply with me or can we apply her naturalization after my ILR)

Many thanks
Hoping CROO1 could guide as seen him guide similar posts but not sure if rules etc have changed
TIA

Kindly start your own topic with your circumstances rather than tagging onto another members threads, which is not only unfair but it creates confusion when members respond.

He can apply to extend his visa WITHIN the UK, the rules permit this. He cannot 'extend' his current visa outside the UK if you have ILR.
2.My daughter was born in the UK around 3 months ago ( would she need to apply with me or can we apply her naturalization after my ILR)

You can register her as British once you get ILR.

1. He may extend (in the UK) shortly before expiry of leave.
2. UK born daughter will be entitled to register directly after a parent is granted ILR.
