Partner of Settled person, which form to use?

Post by pashish1 » Mon Sep 23, 2013 1:07 pm

Hi,

I joined my husband(Tier 1 General) to the UK in April 2013 on a Tier-1 Dependant visa.

Our VISA's expire in December 2013.

My husband will apply for ILR in November 2013 from PEO.

Subject to him getting his Settlement, I am confused as to what form shall I use to make my application for extension of stay.

I came across UKBA page Can you Apply page as follows:

Can you apply?

This section is for those who applied for, or are applying for, leave to enter or leave to remain as a partner of a British citizen or a person who is settled here.

You cannot apply for leave to remain or indefinite leave to remain in a partner category if your last leave was as the partner of a former points-based system migrant who:

is settled in the UK and was granted settlement as a points-based system migrant; or
has British citizenship having been granted settlement as a points-based system migrant.

Instead, you must apply as a dependant under the relevant category of points-based system.



What form shall I use to make my application?

please help ...

Thanks very much. So does this mean I can switch to FLR(M) ?

It may be better extending as a PBS dependant.
