Re: PBS dependents visa extension once main applicant on ILR

I have a question that is somehow relevant to the topic of this post. My family is in a very same similar situation; I got the ILR from the GTV route, while my wife was on a Tier 2 dependent. Now we want to switch her visa to GT dependent because she still has 2.5 years until the ILR. When completin...

Re: GTV switch for Dependents

You can apply for 1-year and then apply for ILR after you become eligible. Your dependants can switch/extend GTV since you were on GTV before you apply for ILR, and your dependants were on a dependant visa at that time. However, I think that your dependants' extension will have to be for 3 years, re...

Re: Postdoctoral Research Associate- applying fot GTV

To apply through the UKRI route, your name or your job title should be mentioned in the award/grant letter. Your employer will also need to say that your contract still has at least 2 more years.

Re: How long should I apply for GT visa?

Your wife will need to be on a dependent visa for 5 years to be eligible to apply for the ILR. In your case, you can EITHER apply now for a 1 year GTV + dependant. In Feb/Mar 2022, you will be eligible for the ILR. Closer to the expiry date of your wife's visa, she can extend her GTV dependant unti...

Re: Urgent - Tier 2 to GVT

I'm not an expert, but I'm in a pretty similar situation to yours. I would say that you need to wait until you earn money in the new job (probably at least 1 month?). The GTV guidance (under Eligibility requirements for settlement by a person on the Global Talent route ) says: GT 10.2. The applicant...
