[bonga]

Hi
My wife will apply FLR(M) as a spouse of a slatted person where she has been applied and received leave to remain as PBD, so do she need to fill up Section 7A and showed the required amount or directly 7B under maintenance.

PS: though I called HO and they said she was dependent not leave to remain as partner so will be under new rule and have to do SEc 7A, but I am not really understood and happy with the answer..
any body would like to advice pls let me knw

Thanks

She needs to apply for FLR(M) right now before the rules change. Ideally a PEO, maintenance section only as should be considered under Part 8. A1 English required. As soon as FLR(M) is granted, apply for SET(M) under 287(a)(I)(d), B1 English and LIUK Required.

If I understood the link above she could do only flrm sec 7 b maintenance under old rule (july 2012) and will able to apply set (m) soon after with the reference of rules you have provided and with B1 sand LIUK

the rule will change effect to 6th april 2014 after that they have to qualify 5 yr after FLRm granted.
Please advice if I understood clearly.

Hi Amber,
Your kind advice is urgently needed.
I got my ILR last November on the basis of Tier1(g) 5 year route.
My wife is here with me since July 2011(initial visa Tier1 G Dep) but she changed to FLR(m) in January 2014 becz I got ILR.
The reason she could not apply for ILR was English language requirements.
Now she met all English language requirement but I m confused whether she is eligible for ILR or not.

I will highly appreciate your help.

Regards
J

[Amber]

Yes she can on SET(M), by virtue of immigration rule 287(a)(i)(d), I would do it now at a PEO. B1 English and LIUK required.

Hi,

Does she still need to do B1.

Thanks in advance

I think that is ok for FLR Grad 2 but for ILR B1 is equivalent to Grade 5. please check with the list from UKBA English requirement i am not so sure , other wise you can do it to the English Academy (Trtinity) just a 10 min test and she will manage it ...not too hard please chk youtube video that would help ....

Cheers

Hi
Amber..I have clear from your last msg the question arise. so far I understand ..she could do Flr M and then after Set M... with B1 AND LIUK..however she have just received the FLR M from PEO, bio not arrived..
.my question is as she just receive FLR M, do UKBA will treat her with the new rule after july 2012 for her qualifying period after FLR M which start. I have book SET M before 6th April and to consider her previous PBS dependent period .
do I have to consider 2/3/5 years previous stays record?
other than 287(a)(I)(d) frpom Part 8 is there any reference if they argue at PEO.

Please advice

if the period of validity of her FLR(M) BRP is 24 months then it is an indication that her FLR(M) was issued under para 284. once she reaches this stage 287 (a)(i)(d) applies in her case. there's no hurry to apply for SET(M) before 6th Apr 2014.

Hi
Appreciated for your quick reply, My wife just pass the LIUK and B1 done before, so she is ready to apply now SET(M) only the qualifying period of existing stay ..However from your reply it is clear that if she would have 2 years visa from FLR(M) then she can apply SET(M) 287 (a)(i)(d) ..so that as I have no BRP yet but from the conformation letter from PEO last week, I have scan and attached here where it has mentioned about the 2 years.. as upload limit, I have only attached the part it has mentioned.

Please do a kind favour to check the scan attachment and allow me to know as I have already booked PEO for SET(M) 2morw morning otherwise I will need to cancel. I was hurry as because of the 6th april so did thing with rush ..but don't know why it will not effect for her, if you say a bit if you think needed then pls let me know ..

Kind Regards

i don't know what would happen if you go to PEO without the BRP. i guess it would mean they need some extra time and effort for them to locate your wife's file but i'm not sure. in my wife's case she received her BRP within 3 days and i didn't feel the need to book an appointment for SET(M) immediately.

i don't think you can judge from the wording of the confirmation letter her FLR(M) is issued under the 2 year route or 5 year route. the only thing the confirmation letter said would be her application is successful, meaning that she's granted a spouse leave but no more. the explanatory note attached to the confirmation letter is irrelevant. some caseworkers just give out the same note about 5 year route regardless the spouse leave is issued under 2 or 5 year route.

please see the following link to see why your wife is not affected as she has got her FLR(M) now.
