My wife is a non-EU citizen on a Tier 1 visa expiring February 2012, I am a British citizen. We have been married for 6 months, and previously lived together with a joint account for over 3 years. We are unsure whether she should apply for Tier 1 extension, dependant visa or are there other better options? Which visa would be the quickest/most affordable route to getting indefinite leave to remain?
My wife's immigration status:
2009-2012: 3 years Tier 1 general visa (expires Feb 2012)
2007-2009: 2 years resident permit (limited leave to remain)
2004-2007: 3 years student visa
I believe her 2 year resident permit is not counted towards the years required for indefinite leave to remain as it was granted to complete essential work-related training.
Thank you for any help/comments.
