Applying for BC and Spouse settlement Visa clarifications..

Post by visitkans » Wed Aug 17, 2011 10:43 am

Hi All,

My wife has applied for her settlement Visa on Aug 15th and am planning to apply for my BC by Aug end, have a couple of clarifications pls..

1. Will the BC application cause any issues with my wife's settlement visa process.

2. Once i get my BC and then later on once i receive my passport, whats the process to change my wife's dependent visa from my old ILR to my new passport?
(hopefully she would be in the UK by then)

Thanks in advance.

K.

Am not sure on this one, basically she is applying settlement visa, am on ILR at the moment, so is that the same as dependent visa? or is it a different one.

The visa form VAF4A says its a settlement visa ("as a spouse of a settled person")

could you pls clarify..

Thanks

Your wife will be 27 months settlement visa and after 2 years of stary in UK she is eligible for ILR and after 1 year for BC (If current rules doesn't change)

Thanks
