Wife Tier 2 dependant renewal

Post by Doorfast44 » Wed Nov 13, 2019 8:12 am

Hi All

My status: At present I have an ILR which i got on Jan 2019. Before that I was a Tier 2 (General) for 5 years. My wife joined me 4 years ago and is now a Tier 2 Dependent looking to renew her Tier 2 Dependant status till she become eligible for ILR on her own.

I am trying to renew the visa for my wife and I am trying to fill the online form.
I have 2 problems:

1. On the main form
it asks "Which visa or permission to stay has Mr xxx" applied for or been granted?
I answered "Tier 2 (General) leave to remain".

2.On the IHS charge site
I am not sure what to say about my "visa route" and "visa type"
If I fill my expiry date on my ILR BRP (Dec-2024) in it will ask me to pay IHS charge for 5 years!

Any advice would be appreciated

Put ilr expiry date as day month 2022, ie 3 years from now, to get the correct fee for 3 years.

Hi Door fast

I am in the same situation.

Can you please confirm what you selected for below questions?

1. Length of CoS?
2. Is job in Shortage occupation code?

Also did your wife get the approval?
