Hi everyone,
I have a question regarding the FLR (M) application. I hope anybody who has the relevant experience can give me some advices.
I am a dependant of my husband. I am currently holding a work permit dependant visa which valid until the end of 2012.
My husband has applied for his 10 years long residence ILR last month. Since it's not allowed to have any dependant in that category, I didn't apply with him. We are currently waiting for the outcome of his ILR application.
I have some questions about my status:
(1) I assume that when my husband receives his ILR visa, I will not be a work permit dependant anymore.
- How long do I need to wait to submit my FLR (M) application? I was advised to do it ASAP but I was wondering how soon would it be? (In less than 3 months or something, is there a time limit?)
(2) DO I need to go back to my home country to apply for the FLR (M)?
- Some solicitors advised me that I should apply for the FLR (M) form my home country since it requires an entry clearance. However, I noticed that on the UKBA website it says that 'You must be in the UK to apply'.
I was quite confused now. Can anybody advise?
Thank you!
