Will my Partner be eligible for ILR

Hiya,

A quick drawdown of my circumstances.

I have been on Tier-2 and will complete 5 years next year. My wife joined me on Tier-2 dependent at the start of this year.
I understand once i get my ILR, she will get FLR and can apply for ILR when she has completed 5 years here with me.

However, she now has the oppurtunity to convert to Tier-2 (It is important for her to get her own tier 2 to train in medicine).

My question is once she gets her Tier-2, say in Dec2013, will her clock for ILR be reset again or she can apply for ILR once she has completed a total of 5 years here including this present one, and considering that at the time her visa will be tier-2?

For anyone who can shed some light, it'll be much appreciative.

Please check this it might be relevant

Kind regards

Yes.

And, if in the future, she has to change from Tier 2 to your dependant for some reason (e.g. - employer not providing CoS to enable her to extend), the ILR will be reset again (i.e. - 5 years from that change).
