D13 Please state what ties you have with:
• The country where you were born.

You should tell us about any family, friends or other connections with that country.

I recently got my ILR on 10th Oct

my wife's current leave (TIER 1 PBS dependant) will expire in 2016

I understand she will have to switch to dependant of a settled person as my immigration status has changed

Can you please advise where I may find the requirement that states the time limit of when she must switch?

we are looking to apply for her FLRM in December this year but a bit worried this might be too late.

Your reply will be immensely appreciated.

Apologies if you have already answered a similar question before

Regards,

Hi, I am in the same situation like yours, the adivce I got is that you should change as soon as possible, however, there is no define time what is as soon as but I assume you have to apply your common sense here. This is a gray area of the law but hope you should be alright if you apply sooner and you should not delay until December unless it is something unavoidable. Furthermore, you should also meet the income requirement and the visa will be given for 2.5 years towards a five years settlement route. Anyone, differing this information please comment.

Congrats on all who have received their approval, just a quick question? my decision has been sent back but it still with royal mail - redelivery in progress as I did not receive a calling card, I also received a calling card from thedx - which I know is used for biometric, - I am hoping it an approval?

Hi rashenikki,

I believe approval is sent using DX as well since I clearly remember Shajee mentioning it previosuly. So I hope it's good news for you and many many congratulations, enjoy the good days ahead:)

I'm a bit confused really . How does the Home office finds out when I was outside the UK? Obviously there is entry dates on the passport but how they know when I exited the UK? I assume they check entry stamps to other countries in the passport and compare it to the dates provided on the passport? What if it's written in an non-English (farsi) and using a different calendar(non-christian)?

Many thanks in advance for your help

Hi Saman.NJ,
You have asked the questions and pretty much answered them your self
Although UK exit stamps are not there but entry to other countries stamps are there, so not hard to tell for them.
In this Stone Age if your passport is even stamped in a different language it is not hard work for them to interpret, so many language experts are there working for the Home Office, and obviously they have asked you a question already in the form regards to that if you answer it wrong or try deception than you know the result...
So always be very defined on the dates of entry and exit as that is frankly the only thing for case worker to investigate in a SET(LR) application, as you know there is no other compulsion like showing income, or job e.t.c.
I hope it helps. All the best.
Kind regards
Shahjee

Do any of the member has any email or letter from Home Office confirming that time spent as student dependent will be counted towards SET(M) application ?

I saw a post from a member (GOd Helps) on Fri 17th Oct on this thread and tried sending PM but for some reason PM does not go through.

I'll applying SET(M) for my wife soon and need confirmation if her student dependent stay will be counted towards ILR.

I'll be really thankful if you have any kind of written confirmation from Home regarding above.

Many Thanks.

Many Thanks Shahjee. That answered all my questions. God bless

I asked another question in the other pages, but no answer, can you help me with that one (as below) please? Thanks again

I can apply for my ILR(10 years) now, and my husband (currently my PBS dependent-Valid until May2015) wants to apply for FLR(M) when my settlement is approved. The problem is that he has to leave the UK around mid-December 2015 for business for about a week, and then apply for FLR(M) on his return.

My questions is, if I apply for my settlement now, when exactly my previous PBS visa (and his consequently) will become invalid? at the time of application? at the time of biometric? or at time of approval for settlement? and when is the latest he can leave and return to the UK with his current dependent visa?

AL did you expedite your case ?
