How did you acquire ILR?
I'll leave that for others to respond to as I am not sure on this point.

My family - wife, 2 children have moved to UK on Tier2 - Gen dependant VISA back in 2015. They were here until mid of 2019 which is when they had to move back to India for medical reasons. They are now back to UK in 2022. They have been on PBS-dependant VISA all these years (including an extension in 2019). After this, I've got an ILR.
Their VISAs are due to expiry in Sep 2022. My question is now that I'm on ILR, what type of VISA do they need?
And I presume since they don't meet the continuous stay in UK (due to absences from Apr 2019- Mar 2022), they cannot apply for ILR. Is that correct?
Further, assuming they need to apply for another extension of dependant VISA, I've got the following questions:
1) Should they apply for extension under a 'FamilyRoute'?
2) My wife has a post graduate degree from India. Does she definitely need a Ecctis certificate to prove her English efficiency?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks
Adi

I can provide these from my previous COS, but wanted to check if I am on the right track? Yes
Is there no way I can convey the fact that now I'm on ILR, i.e, I no longer have a Sponsor as I shifted to another job.
HO holds the records of your status already, remember they granted it to you.
TIA for any further advice, thanks!
Just click on the green bit and move and do not add anymore information otherwise it will double the IHS fee up.adi27 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 19, 2022 6:12 pmThank you @AmazonianX
I'm a bit confused on the questions around "partner details" and with the following on IHS form
"You're joining or remaining with this person in the UK".
1) What VISA type should I be selecting here i.e on the IHS form? It's no longer showing an option for Tier2 General which was my VISA when I last extended my family's PBS dependant visas. It however shows options for Tier2 Dependant, but that doesn't apply to me. Should I be selecting it as 'Skilled Worker' because Tier 2 has now been changed to this type if my understanding is correct?
2)It's also asking about my wife's work start and end dates. She is currently a house wife, so what should I be doing? I believe I can enter my work start/end dates, but being self-employed on ILR, I am not sure I've got any end dates yet. Am I meant to enter my old work dates i.e when I was on Tier2?
Thanks for any advice!
You have to complete separate forms for each applicant.adi27 wrote: ↑Wed Jul 27, 2022 5:18 pmI've tried form2 i.e as Dependant Partner and added details of my children as co-applications, but the IHS form says "You don't have any dependants". Any idea what I may have missed? The form looks all correct to me.
Please suggest, my application is stuck at this point, thanks for any help!
