flr granted!!.but a bit confused still.

[taribo]

hi brothers and sisters.
i have just been granted 2.5 flr
i initially applied on flr 0 for the 10 years family route.
but then letter says i am granted 30 months and will
be eligible for settlement after a continious period of
60 months/5 years in the uk...just doesnt add up??
Can someone shed some light on this please?

and also i thank all the members and moderators in
this forum.their help has been unvaluable and i
didnt even need a lawyer to file my application.

You've been granted a visa under the new rules. Initially 2.5 years (30 months) and then you'll need to apply for a further 2.5 years to complete 5 years (60 months)...after which you can apply for ILR.

Wait until you get the BRP to see whether you have been put on the 5 year route instead of the 10 year path.

I believe that it's an administrative error.

The letter couldnt be clearer.anyway lets wait for the brp as this could
Incredibly be the proof that some ecm are still using their discretion on
Family cases.
a quick background:
I was on a valid student visa.
my wife and 2 kids are british citizens
we are both employed and just about meet the 18600 rule.
(I am not even sure).

BUT:
- my wife only had four payslips,no employment contract and no p60.
-we didnt submit any house report at all,just a mere tenancy agreement with the council
-most of the joint bank statements we submitted were on the negative.

those are reasons we applied on the flr o initially.

I think they've considered you under R-LTRP.1.1.(d) - which includes EX1 as a requirement.

That could then include the wife (if there were insurmountable objects to her departing) or the kids (if they are over 7).

Providing you trip EX1 - then the rest of the financial requirements don't apply.
