FLR(M) January 2014 ,need to show income in Set(M)

[esmsi]

My friend applied ILR in September 2013 and received 2014.
His wife received flr(M) in January 2014.
Wife came UK before 2012 as a dependent.

For Set(M) , does she need to show income and can she apply now ?

Set (M) not as simple as that.

Under what provision was leave granted to your friend's wife.

If under 284 then perhaps ILR under 287 is possible, if not, she will have to wait for 5 years.

Thanks for the reply.
After husband got ILR ,wife apply by post.
How can applicant know which rules applied?

Set (M) not as simple as that.

Under what provision was leave granted to your friend's wife.

What was the duration of leave that was granted ?

2 years

What was the duration of leave that was granted ?

Then she may be able to seek settlement.

The should explain things in a cover letter, as there seem to be lots of confusion in this area, when it comes to settlement.

So, dependent can apply settlement now and does not required to show income .
