PBS dependents ILR - combining stay period Tier 5(GAE) and Tier 1 (exceptional talent)

Post by Paramesh » Mon Feb 14, 2022 11:04 am

Dear friends,
I obtained my ILR via a Tier 1 (exceptional talent) visa after completing a three-year residential period. Now I am looking for options to apply for dependants ILR. Previously, I resided in the UK on Tier 5 (GAE).
Is it possible/eligible to apply dependent ILR later than combine the PBS dependent continuous residential periods obtained from Tier 5 (GAE) – Oct 2016 to Jun 2018 and current Ter 1 (exceptional talent) - starting from Aug 2018.
Please give me your suggestions.
Thank you
PR

If your dependant applied for visa before their Tier 5 Dep visa expired in Jun 2018 (in-time application), then yes you can combine periods from different PBS dependant routes together to make up 5y.
DISCLAIMER: Advice given is based on my past experience and/or my interpretation of Immigration Rules and UKVI documents.

Dear Sir,
Thank you for the suggestion. Yes, our dependents applied to Tier 1 dependent visa before expiring (in time application) Tier 5 (GAE) dependent visa.
