Excluding my Wife and Son from FLR application

Post by zaib2556 » Thu Mar 24, 2016 11:56 am

Hello there,

I am currently on Tier 2 General leave to remain from the last four and half years. I have two dependents my wife and son who was born in the United Kingdom four years ago.

All we have leaves to remain until August 2017, my sponsor license was revoked by the Home Office six months ago, my employer had challenged this decision in the High Court. The Home Office initially issued a curtailment of 60 days however, they withdraw at the later stage due to ongoing litigation. The Home Office wrote to all interested employees that due to ongoing litigation, they have decided to reinstate our leaves to original leaves which is August 2017.

My ILR application is due in July 2016 but I am not interested to making an application in the current scenario. I am looking a new employer to switch my VISA and then go for ILR. I have some questions below and would appreciate if any one help me on this.

1. Can I switch my leave with another Tier 2 General Sponsor, in case I find one, as my leave was reinstated until August 2017.
2. If I can, can I exclude my wife and son from my application because currently they have a leave until August 2017, to save fee and NHS surcharges.
3. If I can, then would I be able to include them in ILR application without any problem, because my ILR application is due in July 2016.
4. Can I request my new sponsor to issue a Cos for one year, to save NHS surcharges.

Thank you very much for your help.

1. Yes
2. Yes.
3. Yes.
4. Yes.

Coming to your current employer, I presume you can't apply for ILR if their license is revoked or suspended. You have to definitely look for a new employer and to apply for ILR, the new employer should be ready to issue a letter mentioning that You will be required by the employer in future and you need minimum 3 months payslip from your current employer assuming that your current salary is £35K or above.
