Hi, To meet English language requirements for FLR(m), UKVI web site state that we can attached a print out of point calculator. My spouse has BSc degree from home country. When I tried to check her degree in calculator there was no option for Dependant (It asks Tier-1, Tier-2, Tier-4 etc). Does anyo...

For 2.2 - yes.
For 2.3 - I think none you listed , it should be one further down listed in the form- but better to confirmed by senior member here

Thanks,
Oh! a lot then

For Premium Service FLR (M) fee for spouse + 2 kids would be £1947 + £400 OR £1947 +£1200 (£400 x3).
Any one has done this recently or know about this please?
Thanks

Thank you Vinny

I had last week an appointment and were told that ILR application successful. Appointment was in afternoon but reached in morning. I was told to come back around 1:00 pm as it was busy in the morning. I reached at 1:00pm, after security checks submit my documents. There was four stages appearing on ...

Thanks Vinny, Oh! it is the living 2/5 years as "partner of settled person visa". I thought 2/5 years living as partner of a person who is settled irrespective of when he got ILR. I understand that dependent can live on current tier-4 dependant visa until they reach 10 years however due to travellin...

Vinny, On their web site (please see below), I put the details and it looks possible: https://www.gov.uk/settle-in-the-uk/y/you-have-a-study-visa I also tried to understand the text in the link in your "No" . I think It would be useful if you could put some light in simple text why it is No. Because...

For applying my partner ILR/FLR, I noticed following in SET (M) guidance: "If you were not last granted limited leave to enter or remain as the partner of a person present and settled in the UK under paragraph 281, 284, 295A or 295D, you must not use this form. you must not use this form. The correc...

Please can you explain what do you mean by "means tested"
Yes , you are correct. It is 100%, initially they told 25% but when I told the criteria (which you have told me earlier),they gave 100% discount. Good knowledge sharing - Thank you

Amber,thanks, from references it looks 100%.However,
as my wife works 32 hrs/week & me 20 hrs/week- do you think,we are still eligible for 100% discount?

Hello,
I am Tier-4 student studying full time course more than 12 months. My wife and kids (under 18) are on Tier-4 dependant visa. Me works 20 hrs/week and wife works 32 hrs/week. My question- Are we eligible for council tax discount of 25% as I am full time student.
Thanks

Thanks, Uni take maximum period of PhD completion is 5 years however minimum duration for PhD direct is 2 years if you can complete.

Hi By reading this post it looks for PhD maximum visa is 3 years plus 4 months. My CAS says full time PhD duration 5 years. Would I get 3 year + 4 months OR it would be 5 year+ 4 months? Previously I have studied only 1 year and 9 months only for my master so from cap point of view it should not be ...
