Wait until statement of changes is published to know exact details.

Hi kind people! need some more help as i start filling flr m form for my wife.
just to recap i applied for ILR long residence in march 2012 and not got any response back from HO yet, my wife is my tier 1 dependent(granted oct 2009 untill 17 anu 2012)
and my two son born in UK
and i am not including them with my wife flr application and as prevouily discussed apply for their BC registration directly once i get ILR.
i have some queries regarding this form which i cannot understand how or what to anwser.
please give suggestions.

Section 4: Dependent chidren who appling with You . this is mandatory section and we have to anwser as application is invalid if we dont fill this section.

now if i anwser yes to 4.1, i have to anwser 4.6 aswell where they ask about child passport and nationality details. will home office not ask us about
their status or why not we include them as according to them they are overstayed once their leave expire.

Section 7A: Financial Requirment- Read Guidence Note part 21, according to which i not need to meet these requirments then what option i have to select
7.1 'yes' or 'no' if yes than what kind of evidence i have to give.

i think these are the points where i stuck. please adivce

If you are granted settlement before your wife's current PBS dependant leave expires, then she should be able to apply for settlement without needing to switch to FLR(M) first.

If you are not granted settlement before your wife's current PBS leave expires, then she will need to switch to FLR(M) leave before her leave expires and may apply for settlement as soon as her FLR(M) application is approved.

So, wait ... with the hope that your settlement application is approved before the expiry date of your wife's PBS dependant leave.

Hi All,

My got my ILR on 18/9/2013 based on 10 year LR.
My wife is by PBS dependent since May2009 and her Visa is valid until Jan-2015.

Can She apply for her ILR using SET(m) ? as she has already completed 2 year as a PBS dependent.
or does she has to apply FLR(m) first ?

She has passed her Life in UK.

Please help I need to apply before the rules changes in Oct.

Best regards
