Hi, have u applied for your wife from Tier-1 dependant to FLR(M).? could you please kindly update. I am also in the same situation as yours.cluelesss wrote:Hi,
I recently got ILR based on 5 years Tier1 route. My wife is a doctor and that's why I wanted to apply using FLR(M) so that she doesn't have any restriction as a doctor in training.
Are you saying that now PBS => ILR dependants cannot apply using FLR(M)?
I have booked her appointment in 2 weeks time. Need urgent help.
Thanks

No, but it must be at least 2 years from original date of entry if she is under the old rules.Is there any rule which states that a dependent person should have been present in the UK '2 years' before the date of application of ILR?
No there is no such requirement for ILR. You are confusing this requirement with what is needed to apply for British Citizenship.When I applied for ILR, there was a rule which stated that I should have been physically present in the UK 5 years before the date of application).
Did she apply for FLR (M) after 6 July, 2012? If so, would she not be on a path for ILR 5 years after the visa was granted?srk2012 wrote:Thanks for your response. She first entered UK in Dec 2011. So its more than three years since she came.
