Hi jan123, Click word "not" on the link provided by vinny, hopefully, it will resolves your confusion. Also, From October 2013 one can switch within UK without leaving UK to get EC. Please read Page 10 section 7.21, 7.22 (EXPLANATORY MEMORANDUM) regards, The 2 years requirement is not applicable for...
Hi vinny, sushdmehta, amber and seniors, Please accept my apologies in advance. Kindly can anyone clarify the statement below: "As it stands therefore, anyone applying under paragraph 319E(d)(ii) would be able to amalgamate previous leave as a PBS dependant, without it having to have been continuous...
You'll have to email them when the changes are in effect as they can only advise regarding the current rules. I am questioning about rule in place which are going to change from 1st October 2013. I am sorry I am keep asking my concerns here, I will continue in my thread Please if you can kindly rep...
provided your husband is eligible for ILR before 28th October 2013 133-134 are also effective from 1 Oct 2013. Thanks vinny, my apologies, I thought this is with the changess which are going to apply from 28/10/2013 and from January 2014. I can see, thanks for correcting me. However, my statement e...
Hi Sep08T1Applicant That is exactly the same thing we are deliberating. If I become a PBS dependent before 01 Oct. Will the current rules for ILR apply, which does not state I need to have 5 years as a dependent visa. Anyone with any suggestions please. Even if means flying to India tomorrow and sw...
They are amending that. Sorry for asking or repeating the same concern (no intention of hijacking the thread - please accept my apologies) as I am totally confused. As it stands it means before implementation of these amendments in the current 319Ed(ii)( b ) and 319Ed(ii)( c ) dependant applicants ...
Hi Lucky, the number you mentioned above I do remember calling the same number 08453000627 and spoke to guy, he was really a nice guy - helped me through my query and also sent me the employment history. I did get it within 5 working days. I will paste you the address on the letter I had you can try...
Thanks a lot for your prompt reply and I really appreciate that. My current Tier-1 will be valid till April-2014 and I'll be applying my ILR this Thursday.Though I booked my appointment for all 3(myself, my wife & baby) I'm really not sure whether to include my dependants as part of this ILR proces...
I am in the similar boat. When are you planning to apply for your wife? are you going to apply same time as yours? Read information provided here Also just to mention as per your explanation your wife will be eligible after 5 years, unfortunately you can combine previous dependant stays to make it 5...

Did you mean to say similar absences requirement will be in place for dependants as well?
I still don't seen any definition of "continuous" in this context (for dependants). Is it based on 245AAA(a) or 276A or something completely different? Vinny - do you mean there is no mention of dependant as per the reading or it is I am taking it wrong. The whole 319E keeps on saying spouse or civ...
Thanks Amber, does this mean there was a chance earlier to amalgamate the previous leaves assuming dependant and non-dependant leaves and this change from "where applicable" to "with leave" will not now combine the non-dependant leaves?
There is therefore an error of omission in the current rules which will be amended at the earliest opportunity. 133. In paragraph 319E(d)(ii) , delete “the specified period is 5 years” and substitute “the specified period is a continuous period of 5 years”. 134. In paragraph 319E(d)(ii)(c) , after ...
Thank you very much sushdmehta, I am going for (1), just looking for PEO dates - thank you for your effort, time and advise, thanks to Vinny as well.
Wish me luck, I will keep posted.
Hi vinny and sushdmehta, I got a reply from UKBA, reply is good but unfortunately it will soon be rectified as mentioned by UKBA in response below, as per their response my wife can amalgamate previous PBS dependant mentioned by vinny and clarified and supported by sushdmehta but as it's stand my wi...
Now, I understand - It happened to one of my friend he booked for himself and his dependant and the whole amount was deducted without notifying him - he saw the full amount at the end with the world pay screen
Thank you sushdmehta, thank you soo much, I will make sure. I would just like to thank you from the bottom of my heart. I will soon start to prepare my case (cover letter for myself and my wife explaining the whole scenario - I might need some help I will keep posting), I am just thinking of: 1) men...
Hats off Sir for such a comprehensive post, i would like to thank you and appreciate your effort, time and explanation. Now, I fully understand why UKBA have replied as I completely overlooked the text in the policy guidance. Thank you so much for pointing it out. You have given me maximum hope. I d...
No, she was Tier 1 dependant since 2009 and before that student visa not my dependant So 319E(d)(ii)(c) does not apply anyway - she has never had leave as dependant in any other (non-PBS) immigration category. The term "dependant" is generally used to refer to spouse or civil partner, unmarried or ...
Has your wife ever applied for leave as a dependant in any immigration category other than as a "PBS dependant"? Do note that HSMP between Nov-2006 and 2008 is considered "PBS category". Thanks very much, I really appreciate your time and responses. No, she was Tier 1 dependant since 2009 and befor...
I have read it through and responded only after that. 319E(d)(i)(b) states under the Rules in place before 9 July 2012, and since then has had continuous leave as the Partner of that Relevant Points based System Migrant, the specified period is 2 years AIUI, continuous leave = continuous immigratio...
