HI

Could anyone kindly confirm if the Barcode Separators are still required to organise documents for FLR (M) and ILR(M)?

If yes were can they be downloaded from?

Much appreciated!

Not required.

[xzaf]

Not required.

So just take the documents to the centre and they will scan it altogether, or is there anything else i need to be aware of?

Barcode separators were for applications outside the UK.

Hi

Another question, i entered this country on 15/03/2017 and my current FLR (M) visa expire on 04/07/2022.

When should i submit my application the latest for ILR (M) is it 28 days before it expires..?

Thanks
Z

Visa expiry is irrelevant. It is 28 days from completing your 5 years. The counting for 5 years starts from the date of your first entry to the UK

So do i have to apply 28 days from completing 5 years or am i ok to apply after lets say 5 years and 1 month?

Thanks
Z

[CR001]

The earliest you can apply is within 28 days before reaching 5 years. That latest you can apply is the date the current visa expires.

[xzaf]

Lovely! thank you for your help...ill be in touch should i need further help!

Have you read the guide as you were advised ??
What part is confusing to you ?
Are you going to change the job before applying ?
Are you applying under category A or B ??

Hi,
Yes i will be changing my job 5 months before applying and currently I've been with my current employer for almost 2 years, so i am not sure whether its category A or B apply to me?

Thanks

I repeat once more: Read the guide as given to you above. It is all explained there

[xzaf]

Hello again,

Please could you clarify the following, I'm a bit confused?

1) My partner is working for the same employer for two years so i know it will be category A for him. but he earns less than £18600.

2) I work for the same employer and have been for the last 10 months, but my contract may come to an end before we apply for the ILR (M) and i may have to find another job.

so what i need to know, if my employer extend my contract we can apply under Category A and we can both combine our earnings to make up the £18600. is this correct ?

however, if my employer don't extend my contract and i end up finding another job, which means, i then have to apply under Category B, can we still combine my earning's under category B and my partners under Category A to make up the £18600?

Thank you

Correct
