switching refers to applications made from inside the UK.kancan wrote:Thanks for both of your replies. The problem that upset me is we do have stayed together for nearly four years in UK despite on our respective Tier 1 General since married but we didn't keep ANY of the previous letters, bills etc for cohibitation evidence! Moreover, my wife will not be my dependant for long enough to be two years by the time of my ILR application.
So, my new question is, can switching from Tier 1 General to FLR(M) be done within UK??? I was thinking the applicant must apply out country for an entry clearance.

FLR(M) is only for in country applications.
Yes she can switch from tier 1 general to spouse of a settled person from within the UK as per my earlier reply.
It is only if she wanted to change to be a tier 1 dependent that she would have to apply for entry clearance. given that she won't qualify for ILR with you there is no point in her doing this.
