Further Leave To Remain or Indefinite Leave To Remain?

Post by agentz619 » Fri Jun 24, 2022 5:28 pm

Hi everyone,

Hope everyone is well. I have a few questions as I am confused by the constant immigration rules changes, so please bear with me and any advice or help would be very much appreciated.

My wife came to the UK on the 18th August 2017 on a Spouse Visa. Our beautiful son was born in 2018. I renewed her Visa in 2020, so the time is coming up soon to renew the Visa again.

My question is do I now apply for Further Leave or Indefinite Leave To Remain? She is coming up to living in the UK for 5 years since she arrived back in 18th August 2017. My wife’s BRP (Biometric Residence Permit) expires on the 14th October 2022.

My second question is when should I apply, if my wife is eligible to apply for Indefinite Leave To Remain?

I would appreciate any kind of help, thank you.

I am getting everything ready to apply for ILR for my wife as she has now lived in the UK for over 5 years.

I have one question, does my wife needs to pass the LIFE IN THE UK Test in order to apply for ILR?


Thank you.

Yes. Also an B1 level English language test.
