The visa in that picture was issued in the UK (so gives indefinite leave to remain, and there is no time limit on the holder's first entry to the UK since the holder - our good friend Mr Given Family(!) - is already in the country).Londoh wrote:I just found this pic...

Normally yes. See http://www.ind.homeoffice.gov.uk/lawand ... ules/part8, paragraphs 281 and 282.Londoh wrote:To conclude the original point of the thread can some knowledgable person confirm that:
If this is an ILE (or ILR) Visa (which I am assured it is) then ILR is granted on application for a settlement visa to married couples who have been together outside the UK for more than 4 years.
The last sentence above relates to your circumstance, and the outcome it describes will be fulfilled when your wife presents her documents at passport control on arrival in the UK.Immigration conditions upon entry to the United Kingdom
A person holding an entry clearance as a spouse/civil partner will normally be admitted to the United Kingdom for an initial period of 24 months. After satisfactory completion of this period, indefinite leave to remain may be granted. However, where an applicant has been married to a UK citizen and both have been living abroad for more than 4 years, Indefinite Leave to Enter may be granted.
