Tier 1 dependant + ILR dependant

[saminkhan]

Hi all

I am sure it is explained somewhere but there is a lot of confusion about it hence this query:

My wife has completed as Tier 1 dependant and ILR dependant. She got her ILR dependant visa before the new rulesa were announced in July. Can she apply for ILR now as she has completed 2 years as dependant although it is not 2 year as ILR dependant.

Secondly, is it 2 years instead of 5 years as changed in July 2012?

Finally, which form to use.

Thanks

YES, she can apply for her ILR as soon as she complete her 2 years which is combination of Tier 1 and ILR dependent.

Yes as long as she got her dependent visa before July, she can apply for ILR after 2 years.
If she is on a Tier 1 Dependant - she needs to use SET(O)
If she switched to an FLR(M) (ILR Dependant) when you got your ILR, then she needs to apply via SET(M)

Hi

I am applying for my wife's ILR who has completed 2 years as Tier 1 dependent and settled persons dependent. As she got her settled person dependent visa before July 2012, I guess she can apply for ILR under old rules after completion of her two years from arrival in the UK?

Is SET (M) the right form?

I am planning to attach the following documents, can someone please check and advise if anything needs adding

- Application form
- Wife's passport
- Wife's biometrics permit card
- Wife's photos
- My photo
- Life in the UK pass certificate (she passed it a month ago, i hope it is valid for application even after the new test is introduced)
- I have both pakistani and british passports. Can i send pakistani passport which is still valid and had ILR stamp on it. The reason is that i would be traveling using my british passport
- Daughters birth certificate (She is british born but it seems it is required)
- 6 different pieces of evidence confirming same address

Your help is really appreciated.

Thanks
