Thank you.

Another question, how soon can i take B1 and life in the UK test?

in other words how long are the test/certificates valid for, my renewal is a few months away yet?

Liuk doesn't expire.

English tests are valid for 2 years.

So just take the documents to the centre and they will scan it altogether, or is there anything else i need to be aware of?

Hi

Another question, i entered this country on 15/03/2017 and my current FLR (M) visa expire on 04/07/2022.

When should i submit my application the latest for ILR (M) is it 28 days before it expires..?

Thanks
Z

Visa expiry is irrelevant. It is 28 days from completing your 5 years. The counting for 5 years starts from the date of your first entry to the UK

So do i have to apply 28 days from completing 5 years or am i ok to apply after lets say 5 years and 1 month?

Thanks
Z

The earliest you can apply is within 28 days before reaching 5 years. That latest you can apply is the date the current visa expires.

Lovely! thank you for your help...ill be in touch should i need further help!

Have you read the guide as you were advised ??
What part is confusing to you ?
Are you going to change the job before applying ?
Are you applying under category A or B ??

Hi,
Yes i will be changing my job 5 months before applying and currently I've been with my current employer for almost 2 years, so i am not sure whether its category A or B apply to me?

Thanks
Z

I repeat once more: Read the guide as given to you above. It is all explained there

Hello again,

Please could you clarify the following, I'm a bit confused?

1) My partner is working for the same employer for two years so i know it will be category A for him. but he earns less than £18600.

2) I work for the same employer and have been for the last 10 months, but my contract may come to an end before we apply for the ILR (M) and i may have to find another job.

so what i need to know, if my employer extend my contract we can apply under Category A and we can both combine our earnings to make up the £18600. is this correct ?

however, if my employer don't extend my contract and i end up finding another job, which means, i then have to apply under Category B, can we still combine my earning's under category B and my partners under Category A to make up the £18600?

Thank you

Correct
