Hi,

Request your clarification on the following

I moved from Tier4 to Tier 2 General Visa; and my Tier 2 Visa dates are as below:

- Visa date of issue as per BRP: 26/01/2017
- Visa end date as per BRP: 30/01/2022

I am applying for ILR on 5th Jan 2022 thru fast track and hopefully will get it in few days.

My question is when can i apply for my dependent wife and 2 childrens (16 years and 13 years)

Their Visa details are as below,

- Visa starts from (as stamped on Passport): 25/02/2017
- Visa date of issue as per BRP: 21/02/2017
- Visa end date as per BRP: 30/01/2022

I have the following 3 questions:
1) What is the actual visa start date: 25/02/2017 or 21/02/2017 ?
2) What is the earliest date we can we apply for ILR for my dependent wife and kids ?
3) Since their Visa is ending on 30th Jan 2022, they would fall short of 5 years by around 25 days? Will that be a problem ?

Thanks in advance for your help and support

1) The earliest date
2) 5 years from the first visa issue date minus 28 days
3) Apply early but then book the appointment within 28 days.

Thank you so much Zimba for your guidance. Really appreciate your help
