"Tier 1 or Global Talent dependants" is correct. Under the GTV rules for ILR, the visa route of a dependant is unimportant, so no switch is necessary for them at all. Her ILR eligibility is based on your previous status as a GTV holder and she will apply to get ILR via the same route. This is accord...

One more question

as far as i understood, there is no template for emplyoee letter, the SOC code should be mentioned in the emplyoee letter?

Please follow all the links as per the advice above. There is no template

Thanks Zimba,

It's really helpful.

For example, new SOC code '2135’ (Cyber Security Professionals) shows a lower going rate as below
£35,100 (£18.00 per hour).
So, is it correct that my salary should be equal to or exceed this rate to meet the requirements?

Correct

Can you please explain more details? Like the Home office will not check my debts with the Universal Credit or the DWP?

There is nothing in the rules that says such a situation leads to refusal. Being incorrectly paid benefits is not your issue.

Some told me that it’s public debts and it can affect my application. I’m super super worried

Ignore what some have said.

Just the new SOC salary threshold applies as that is the updated code for the exact role. SOC is just used to calculate the salary thresholds. The Standard Occupational Classification (SOC) codes assigned to each sponsorable role have been simply updated from the 2010 codes to the 2020 codes, so you...

Dear moderators,

For the ILR application, do we need to upload complete copy of passport including empty pages or its just need to scan & upload the non-empty pages?

Thanks in advance!
Raj.

Empty pages of passport are useless, just stamps in the last 5 years

It should not affect your ILR. ILR for refugees will take several weeks to months, so sit tight

Any time spent under EA period is a gap in lawful residence as I already covered this many many times. The new rules do NOT apply to your application either as you already applied and the new rules do not apply. I already explained where the gap is and what could possibly go wrong in your case. Thi...

Thanks Zimba for sharing this. As my case is only a 23 days gaps can I just apply for ILR and then delay the biometric appointment to the daet when he will become eligible, rather than making an extension application and varying it later? Please advise? Yes, Please read the advice I already given.

Thanks for that info. I got confused from one of your replies in other post that says - "Needless to say, the qualifying period for ILR is counted from ILR application date and backwards, not from the beginning" - https://www.immigrationboards.com/indefinite-leave-to-remain/when-does-qualifying-per...

This does not affect ILR as such an offence is not recordable. However, note that the rules allow the caseworker to still refuse an application if there applicant has a pattern of repeat offence

Thank you for your reply, Zimba. I know it's a bit early, but I'm eager to plan ahead and avoid any last-minute surprises 😊. Should I consider extending my sponsorship for another year? My current visa expires on 30.03.2027, with the grant date being 26.05.2022, although I submitted the documents o...

You do not seem to understand how the lawful residence calculations work or what section 3C actually is. The date of your biometrics is not relevant much

I covered all these here: How to apply early and benefit from the date of the ILR decision ?

As you are not relying on cash savings, then no

Thanks for the response Zimba.

I did not understand the 6th point. What did you mean by corresponding statement?

The statement showing the deposit of the money as per the last payslip

In addition, I found this one from governement website: check if you can become a British Citizenship: https://www.gov.uk/british-citizenship If you’ve applied for citizenship, you’ll need permission to stay in the UK until you’re granted citizenship.

Thank you for your answer. That's really helpful However, when I search online about switch from a visitor visa to other visa, it seems that you can not switch it in the UK. "No. Unfortunately, you cannot switch from a Visitor Visa to any other visa in the UK. The Visitor Visa is intentioned as a w...

You should only worry about this in 2027.
There are ways to make up some residence time to reach 28 days within the 5 years: How to apply early and benefit from the date of the ILR decision ?
