Here's my case: I initially came on HSMP in July 2006 then converted to Tier-1 and my wife came in January 2009 as Tier-1 Partner written on her visa. I've got ILR-JR appointment at Croydon for 23rd June and have already tried to convince UKBA on the phone but they are not agreeing at all. Regards F...

Tier-1 dependents ILR under JR < 2yrs UK tenure experienc

Hi All, There are quite a few threads on this topic already but i just want to consolidate all. To explain the situation briefly it's basically when your tier-1 dependents haven't spend 2 years in UK and applying for ILR under JR with you. Currently, most likely UKBA is not allowing ILR for dependen...

I meant the current conclusion BUT very strangely we've a success case of gvamsimba where he even wasn't asked on her wife's Tier-1 dependent visa and i don't believe that they would have information that Oh she applied using VAF2 form so lets not create trouble for them.

Thanks for the help guys. So the current conclusion is if your dependent came here using VAF10 form then they won't get ILR. Though this is completely ridiculous the main applicant also on pure Tier-1 but because they're protected under JR then they don't consider Tier-1 rules but for the dependents...

Just checked with gvamsimba and he was'nt even bothered with this issue at Croydon and straight away got ILR for his wife as well. She was also Tier-1 dependent. So i believe it's all about luck which is frustrating me :( Btw in worst case if my wife doesn't get ILR then does she has to spend 2 year...

sushdmehta, do we have more successfull examples like you?
Is HSMP forum doing anything relating to this? I believe we should try to get something in written formUKBA by giving them references to JR ruling.

I don't remember which form was it but i'm pretty sure it was Tier-1 dependent form. Now i'm really regreting why i didn't apply under JR on my visa extension as then my wife would have come here as HSMP dependent not Tier-1 dependent. I had the option of both Tier-1 and HSMP-JR but i opted for Tier...

Thanks for the reply, so just to clearify both my wife and son can apply as dependent on me i.e. they don't have to fulfil the 4 years criteria under JR as my wife is been in UK from last 1.5 years and my son born in UK and he's just 4 months old. Plz confirm as it's not clear in SET(O) guidance. Ma...
