FLR or Tier 1 extension -- Bit confused.. please advise ???

Post by confident » Wed Aug 21, 2013 4:53 pm

I am applying my ilr soon and after few weeks i'll apply my wife visa.
e. My wife came to uk just 8 months ago as tier 1 dependent.
Can i apply the FLR visa to her??? or i should apply for tier 1 dependent extension. tier 1 dependent fee is £1920 double the FLR visa fee i.e £953.
Kindly advise.

3. If the dependant has not completed the qualified qualifying residential period at the time that the principal PBS migrant applies for settlement, then:
a) If the PBS dependant's current leave will expire after he/she has completed the qualifying period and the dependant meets the other requirements for settlement then the dependant may apply for settlement directly (319E).
b) If the PBS dependant's current leave will expire before he/she completes the qualifying period then the dependant can apply , before his/her current leave expires, to extend his/her PBS dependant leave until such time that he/she becomes eligible for settlement (319C and 319D). Though switching to FLR(M) leave remains an option but extending PBS dependant leave is simpler (e.g. - only maintenance funds to be shown, no English language requirement).

i am not understanding what it says.. can anyone simplify the statement
