I think once u have ur ILR, you then need to apply for ur Mrs ILR separately, she will then be required to live here for 5 years before she can apply for indefinite leave.

What visa status you have got and what is your wife's visa status and when was she given visa of UK?

All these answer will decide which is best route

[rockybelbo]

I am currently on Tier 1 (general)
My visa is on Tier 1 (dependent )
She got visa in Jan 2013.
Please suggest.

Please Reply.

Is there any reason for your continued preference for FLR(M) over PBS dependant?

Agree with this, FLR(M) locks her into another 5 years and more strenuous checks and requirements, I'd avoid that personally tbh.

Please suggest what the best way is for my wife?

Thank you so much for directing me into this page. I am sure this has more information.

I tried to browse UKBA site and I felt that FLR (M) might be the right visa based on below link. Could you kindly direct me to UKBA page that says my brother can also apply for PBS DEPENDANT once he receive his ILR. I don't see anywhere that says we can apply for PBS dependant.
