This is the template of the covering letter I used. Change the <> texts and wherever necessary. This is a copy from word document. The tables and formatting were not copied :shock: .

Thanks Ambassador for sharing ur experience and cover letter. As my wife was out of uk for 10 months, so i thought i had to go for ILR dependent. But now your case gives me confidence that I can apply ILR for my wife as well.

ILR - Kid is not 2 years old and stayed in india for 6 month

Post by harsha.evuri » Wed May 02, 2012 2:51 pm

Hi,
I have slightly different scenario.

I have completed 5 years in UK and my wife is staying with me from more than 2 years. We are applying for ILR this month.

We a had a baby born in UK and he hasn't completed 2 years yet. Also he stayed in india for 6 months with my parents.

My question is whether he will get the ILR or he will be dependent of us?

Could you please help as the application date is coming near

regards
harsh

ILR refused. Urgent Help needed

Post by manojult » Tue Mar 19, 2013 1:03 pm

Hi memebers,
My wife's ILR has been refused.
She has been with me in the UK for 2 years and three months. She was on PSW visa initially and swithched to Tier 1 Dependant visa on Jan 22 2012.
http://www.immigrationboards.com/viewto ... highlight=

Reading the rules, I can understand what everyone discussed here and I agree. But it is the UKBA that sees it differently. She has an option to appeal by march 28th.

All solicitors I talk to say that there is no point in appealing and are advising me to do a fresh incountry FLR application.
The issue is I have to make a decision fast.

Could people who have ILR dependant visa granted for spouses who have not been on dependant visa for 2 years please pass a few case reference numbers that I can cite in my appeal. Forgive me if you feel it is an intrusion on someones privacy, but I genuinely do not think that I can see any details if you cite the case reference number. It will make my appeal stronger(in light of three solicitors opinion).

Any help will be appreciated.
