I am sure I will be back here soon with more questions as I have just started preparing for the ILR application for my wife. And this forum has always helped me out in my previous applications.

Thanks CR001. Always can depend on you for quick reply. Sorry I just need to be sure - so I can apply from 5 October onwards as her initial FLR-M BRP issue date is 02 November 2015. I just read somewhere that you cant apply more than 28 days before her current leave expires which is on 28 Dec 2020 ...

Hi All My wife got her first FLR-M on 02-11-2015 (as per date of issue printed on her BRP). So can I apply for her ILR as soon as 04 October 2020. (ie 28 days before five years). Does this qualifying period start from the date of issue of the first FLR-M BRP or before the FLR-M extension BRP expires ...

OK thanks a lot

Thanks CR001 -
I was referring to point (xiv) on Page 29. is that referring to earnings from the employer in the past 12 months or current annual salary?

CR001, Casa, can you please advise?

Hi. I meet the financial requirement of at least £18,600 per year. I had a pay rise in May last year so where it says "Current annual salary" Page 27 [FLR-M 04-2017] I am putting in what my current salary is. So on page 28 where it says "Total amount" [for income for different sources combined ...

Thank you

OK. I might submit via post (special delivery) on the 5th April as that is 28 days before my wife's FLR-M expires. So will the current 04-2017 form be valid if the HO receives it let's say on the 6th April (or even later due to some post complication)?
Thanks

Thanks a lot CR001.

OK thank you. Do we know how much the FLR-M fee will increase to. Is this information available officially?

Thanks CR001 - OK understood will keep the topics in the same thread. Also would you know around what date in April does the HO introduce new Application form generally. I plan to submit the my wife's application in the first week of April. Is there any grace period for when the HO releases a new ...

Hi. I am applying for FLR-M (second period) for my wife soon. Just came across Immigration rules Appendix where it mentions I need to show savings of £16000. Is it applicable to me if I already meet the minimum "earning" requirement of £18,600. If yes can I show my National Savings bonds? Thanks

OK thanks
