Hello,


1. Got the UK Entry Clearance stampped from 19/Dec/2007 till Oct 2008
2. Came to UK on 10/Jan/2008
3. Work permit extended from Oct-2008 till Oct-2009
4. switched to ICT from Oct-2009 till Nov-2010
5. Again visa extended from Oct-2010 till Sep-2012 under Est staff catagory
6. My company is going to extend my Visa in July 2012.

I am going to apply for ILR in Dec 2012 via personal appointment.
MY wife is having tier2 (ICT) dependent visa and will complete 2 years (UK) in April 2013 when I will apply for her ILR.
As per the rule I need to apply for FLR(spouse) visa within 28 days when I get the ILR.
Can I apply for her spouse visa on the same day when I am applying for ILR in Dec 2012 ? Or do I need to take separate appointment for her spouse visa ?

There is no such rule .. to switch within 28 days.

You'll need a separate appointment .. be it on the same day or a different day. If applying on the same day, book your settlement appointment in the first half and FLR(M) appointment in the second half.

Thanks for you Prompt reply.

When I can give the life in the UK test ? I mean how early ?
What is the validity of that certificate ?

You can take this test at any time & there is no expiry date associated with the result.

Do you guys have any study material for this test ?

See below for information posted by others on the LITUK test...
