ILR for Tier 1 Dependant(Spouse)-2 years rule

[ukmigrant2011]

Hi All,
I am on Tier 1 General Visa for the past one year and with previous years on WorkPermit, and I am eligible for ILR next month. From the guide lines I under I need to use SET(O) application Form. I need your advice on whether I can add my spouse in the same form and apply together.

We are married over 2 years and my wife entered UK as dependant on 05-Jan-2009 on my WorkPermit as dependant VISA and then shifed to Tier 1 dependant along with my shift to Tier 1. As per my understanding the rules are saying that my wife should have lived in UK for minimum of 2 years before she apply for ILR, which she has completed in principle.
My question is are there any rules for dependants also that they should nto be outside UK for more than 90 days, 180 days etc. The reason for asking this is though she entered UK two years back, she was out of UK for around 8 months in between. Will this be any problem ?
Your help is appreciated

Cheers

you should be ok. include her in your application. SET(o) form asks about absences from UK but only for main applicant.
