Dear moderator,

Thanks for your help on directing me on how can I apply from within country .Can you please advice that if I apply as my husband's dependant will I be given a British citizenship or ILR visa? Kindly advice

1. Include child in FLR(M) as a dependant.
2. Neither. You will be given limited leave to remain for 2 years.

One final question. I myself eligible for ILR next august 2013 for continuous 5 yrs stay in UK but I was off for continuos of 4 and half months in India during my maternity period in 2009.Will I still be eligible to apply for ILR as the rule says that I cannot stay away from the country for a long period
