ILR for Tier1 Dependant

Hi,

Could anyone please let me know about the following .

My ILR is due by November 2014 ( i am the main applicant ), i need to know that my wife can also apply with me. She is on
Tier1 dependant visa since from Nov 2009. Altogether since from then she has spent more than 2 years in UK but those 2 years
were not continuous.

Please let me know if some have got the ILR for their dependants with the similar condition.

Did her leave expire abroad during that time?

No, her visa didn't expire during anytime when she went out of the UK.

Then what is the issue?

Issue is i am going to apply by this Nov 2014 for my ILR
and my wife went to Pakistan on Sep 2012 and joined me back in March 2013 after 7 months ( her visa didn't expire while she was in Pakistan )

From Mar 2013 - Nov 2014 is 20 months , will she be considered for her ILR when i apply in Nov 2014 even she is short of around 4 months to complete 2 years immediately before my ILR.


Regards,
Ali.

Should be ok.

Hi Amber,

Could you please provide me any link of the UKBA for this because in

Immigration Rules Part 8 (319E. Requirements for indefinite leave to remain) it's saying like this:

If the applicant was granted leave as:
(a) the Partner of that Relevant Points Based System Migrant, or
(b) the spouse or civil partner, unmarried or same-sex partner of that person at a time when that person had leave under another category of these Rules
under the Rules in place before 9 July 2012, and since then has had continuous leave as the Partner of that Relevant Points based System Migrant, the specified period is 2 years.


But it's not saying continuous stay.

Thanks for your early replies as well.


Regards,
Ali.

Continuous leave as in the leave did not expire during the period.
