Thanks Char and for the detailed info. I was aware of the 270 days for the preceding 3 years, not the 90 days preceding, still doing research so we will collect all info before actually applying.

If she holds a BRP card already, there is no need to apply for another one if she renews her passport.
Thanks for the reply CR001, she does not currently hold a BRP, all she has is her ILR in current passport which expires early next year.
