The form is not based on your personal circumstances. You use the relevant ILR form based on the immigration route/path you are intending to qualify underzagoo2000 wrote: ↑Sun Sep 24, 2023 1:45 pmThanks for the reply.
But this form states to use the other one instead isnt it?
If you are the spouse or partner of someone who is settled and currently living in the UK and you have completed the relevant period of continuous leave in the UK using the 'Family Route', you cannot use this form. You must instead apply using the form Apply to settle in the UK - Partner of a person or parent of a child already settled in the UK.
Hi zimba, thats the confusion as I don't know which form that i qualify for.
Hi zimba, are you saying he is eligible for both routes?zimba wrote: ↑Mon Sep 25, 2023 5:36 pmAgain that depends on which route he wants to apply under. For the family route it will be SET(M) and for long-term residence it will be SET(LR). So it is up to you.
10 years of visa under family route, it is SET(M)
10 years of visa even under different visas, it is SET(LR)

Hi zimba,zimba wrote: ↑Mon Sep 25, 2023 6:32 pmFor the long residence, the current visa you are on does NOT matter.
That note is there so that people who STRICTLY want to apply under the family route do not use this form by mistake. e.g. people under 5 year family route
That does NOT mean people holding family visas somehow cannot apply under the long residence, that would be silly
A Guidance cannot be more restrictive than the Rules.Alternatively, partners, parents and their dependent children may qualify for settlement on the basis of 10 years Long Residence in the UK, under paragraphs 276A to 276D or 298 of the rules.
Hi vinny, your Forms. is pointing to the same 'Eligible' application form that i shared in my previous message. So that make sense.vinny wrote: ↑Tue Sep 26, 2023 7:44 pmThe Immigration Rules Appendix Settlement Family Life confirms
