ILR query

hi all ,

i have to apply for my ILR in march end or 1 week of april ,
my wife came to uk feb10 2014 with tier 1 dependent .

can i apply as ILR dependent along with me ?
do i need to still pay the healthcare surcharge if i do this way?

Please make the effort of reading eligibility for dependents? have you done that?

you will need to apply for an extension and pay NHS surcharge

hi argus , thanks for your reply ,
i read all those i guess the question you didnt understand (might i didnt it in proper way).


instead applying as tier 1 dependent , can i apply along with my ilr as ILR dependent.
coz its just cheaper .
if i apply like ILR dependent , do i have to pay healthcare surcharge.

There is nothing called ILR dependent, its purely a dependent renewal /extension

ok , confused now, coz the application has dependent coloum.

Your wife doesn't qualify for ILR yet.

its so appalling to see posts like these where no effort has been made to understand requirements, eligibility, not settled TAX affairs. And will continue in the citizenship section.

Just simply annoyed.!

is it forum to help people , not to get annoyed , if you are annoyed please dont give free advice.
every person , in this forum ask one or the other , reading the full requirements and having everything in place , then there wont be not even a post nor this forum .

same question asked by one person .
look at the replys ,
look at yours , why bothering to come here to get annoyed .
please moderators you guys doing a gr8 job , dont understand why these ppl still here when they cant help .

You cannot included your spouse on your Set (O) form.

If she does not extend her current visa, she can apply for FLR(M) which is a spouse settlement visa (or as you incorrectly call it an ILR Dep visa). This will reset her clock and she will have to wait a further 5 years on FLR(M) - 2 X 2.5 year visas - before she will qualify for ILR. She cannot combine her time spent as PBS Dep to this new 5 year requirement. Fees for spouse visa go up by 25% in April.

You have to pay the immigration health surcharge for both PBS Dependent and FLR(M).

thank you CR001 , this is the perfect reply i was waiting for .

People help when you have a genuine query. Who have not even ready the Tier1 G policy Settlement Guidance or chapter 6A.
