Thanks I will email them.

The settlement check service called the home office and the home office confirmed he is eligible.

The settlement check service then made a note on our documents to say they called home office who confirmed eligibility.

They also said rules change and lots of different types of applications, hence the calls to homeoffice to actually check whether my husband was eligible before proceeding. I just wonder whether homeoffice will honour what the said on telephone :( Let's see if amber or any other member can shed some ...

My understanding is that 6th April rules apply to all ILR(LR) dependants regardless they are on PBS or not. If you think Tier 2 dependants prior to July 2012 are exempt from this, then your husband would have got 2 years visa on his FLR(M) visa rather than 2.5 years ? Probably it would be good to ...

Hi all, I'm very confused with these new rules, I hope someone can help. We had our appointment at settlement checking service and calls to the home office confirmed my partner is eligible even double checked with a manager. I'm wondering if there is some grey area. What I'm trying to understand is ...

Thanks for your message. So do they (Settlement check service) check whether SET(M) is the right application to apply for ILR ? Do they also see whether you have qualified for ILR or not ? eg- ILR(LR) dependants have to now wait for for 5 years regardless whether they came before July 2012 or not ...

Hi

If you are using form set m then you can use the checking service and they will prepare everything for your peo appointment.

They also offer the postal option as you mentioned.

I'm not sure which other applications they offer the service for.

Hi auroc,

Our peo appointment is next week.

Will let you know

Thanks for the replies.

One member actually lost the complete fee which concerns me.

We have an appointment at the settlement checking service this week and peo next week.

Will update you guys

Hi Spartacus,

Do you know whether all letters say 2 years and then it depends on the brp?

I used a solicitor for flr m and when I asked about the letter saying 2 years, the solicitor said that everyone gets that letter because the home office are using an old letter.

I'm also ready

Hi khanzada123, Thanks for sharing your experience. Can you tell me what your approval letter says? Does it say you can apply after 2 years? My husbands letter says 2 years but the brp is 2.5 years. We have a peo booked to try set m application based on the letter but I'm wondering if it's best to ...

Hi tanz5656

Just checked the certificate and it is grade 5 b1 from trinity college so should be fine.

Sleep well

Hi tanz5656

My husband used trinity college b1 when applying for flr(m) and visa was approved. He had his visa appointment about a week and a half ago.

Hope his helps.

Hi all, I received IlR (10yr) and we applied for my partners flr(m) recently. He received it and the letter states he can apply for ilr after 2 yrs, but his brp is valid for 2 and a half years We are going to try and make a peo appointment for settlement using for SET(m) based on the letter stating ...

Hi gameofluck.

It's certainly confusing.

We want to take the chance and see what the outcome will be.

It's my understanding that we will only lose the 100pound booking fee if we are not eligible to apply - is this correct?

I will be sure to keep all updated on our experience.

Hi amber

Thanks for reply.

If the letter states two years does it mean it was considered old rules but brp new rules? It's slightly confusing.

I'm wondering if the two do contradict maybe we could explain at peo?

Hi all, I received ILR in May and we applied for my partners flr(m) recently at peo. He was a pbs dependant pre July 2012. The letter states in order to qualify for settlement you must have completed a period of 2 years in the uk as a spouse. We received the brp and that has been issued for 2 and a ...
