Hello all, I need some help with my submission for ILR application.
My case :-
My wife acquired T2 general visa in Mar 2015. At that time i was on T2 ICT. I became her dependant in Sep 2015. My wife then received her ILR in Apr 2020. Since i had not completed my 5 yrs on the "current" visa by Apr 2020, i ended up extending my visa (Dependant - ILR) in Mar 2020 and my current visa is valid for another 2.5 yrs.
My understanding is that i am now eligible to apply for my ILR. Can someone confirm please?
Also, i started my application today, but have few questions :-
1. Start phase of the application
a) It asks which visa my wife currently has, but doesnt give me an option to select ILR holder. Am i right in selecting "T2 General" as that was the category she was in when she applied for ILR?
b) It then asks for a VAF / GWF number, what is that? & is it necessary?
c) It also asks for the Sponsorship number, but i am not sure why this info is necessary. Just want to be sure that i am submitting my application under right category?
2. Under Application section
d) There's a question on when did you enter UK. I entered UK for the first time in 2010 on T2 ICT, then i had another T2 ICT which i used to enter UK in Mar 2015. After that i switched to the Dependant visa in Sep 2015 while i was in UK. Am i right to use the date of Mar 2015 as the date i entered UK since it is the closest?
e) There's a question "Does the period of stay on which this application was based include any leave granted since 11 January 2018?" - I am not sure where this date has come from as normally the question would cover entire duration of the visa. Can someone advise please why i am only being asked any leave info since Jan 2018?
3. Under document section :
f) I was hoping i'll have to prove that i had been with my wife for past 5 years but no such document has been requested. I havent submitted my application as yet, so not sure if thats something that'll be requested at the end of the application?
Any help on above questions would be great. Thank you
