Can my wife apply for ILR

Post by Taktook1 » Sat Jun 12, 2021 10:49 pm

Hi,

I received my naturalization certificate on 1/6/2021. My wife is on Tier 2 dependent visa completed 3 years now, she did life in UK & English tests. My question is does she need to wait for 5 years before applying for ILR or she can apply as a British citizenship spouse as she has been to UK 3 years ago?

Thanks in advance

Thank you for your response.
So She needs to wait another 2 years for ILR and after getting it can apply to citizenship.
I was asking to clarify about 3 years route of citizenship as my understanding is she needs ILR before citizenship.
