Benefits while wife FLR (M) application pending

[Casa]

For completeness, where is your partner from?

We both are from Bangladesh. We applied at the same time in January 2013. I got my ILR in June. Applied for child's Registration as a British Citizen last week. More than 6 months gone, still no result for the wife application. Thanks.

If you've passed the 6 month mark, you can ask your MP to chase the Home Office up on your behalf. This often gets a response.

No they've given you £71.70 for a lone parent and not £112.55 for a couple so that appears all fine.

Thank you so much Amber. It's a big relief.
