If I apply now ( before husband's ILR) for tier 1 dependent - how long will I get visa for?? is it till my husband leave on tier 1?? my husbands leave ends in May 2014. if yes, If I apply with my husbands application,...

please help regarding my query..as I need to take appointment this week.

Hello everyone, My husband is applying for ILR ( via tier 1 route) next month. I have tier 1 visa but currently I am not working as want to become his dependent. 1. Can I apply for dependent application within Uk or I need entry clearance from my home country(India). 2. Can I apply together with my ...

hello,
Any update on your case?? I am still thinking whether to apply as Tier 1 dependent or not.

I have been trying to find email ID of UKBA for inquiries related to Tier 1.

Cant find email id...does anyone know the link/id?

vinny - one question, switching in-country will break the continuity? Probably no. Thanks vinny for your valuable response. If that is the case then I think skum (considering skum scenario) can apply as PBS dependant and start her most recent stay as PBS dependant. Once skum's partner (Main applica...

thanks. But I was just reading the new PBS dependent forms and guidelines its says -that if I need to apply as PBS dependent - Please check this http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/applicationforms/pbs/pbsdependantspolicy1.pdf Page 1 point 3 "If you are applying as the dependent of a perso...

Congratulations!

I am still thinking what to do...Whether to apply for Tier 1 dependent or FLR(M). FLR(M) is cheaper but not sure I can directly apply without becoming PBS dependent first..

Many thanks to all for your reply. Two more queries

Can I apply FLR(M) along with my husband's ILR application??

My son was born in UK and is husband's dependent. If I dont have ILR- is he still eligible for British citizen or we need to apply for his ILR?

thanks for all the replies. Cleared lot of confusion..and understood rules.. Sep08T1Applicant, what I understood is that - all the rules regarding 319E will come to affect from 1st October not 28th. As for my case, my husband is not eligible to apply for ILR before march 2014. So I am thinking to di...

I am also on the same boat-- I am on tier 1 visa and my husband will be eligible for ILR soon. I am trying to become his dependent so that we can apply for ILR together.
Could you please share - what you did with your wife's visa??
Many thanks in advance

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 swi...

thanks for all the replies. I reread the rule 319E (d) "(ii) If (i) does not apply, then the specified period is 5 years, during which the applicant must: (a) have been in a relationship with the same Relevant Points Based System Migrant for this entire period, (b) have spent the most recent part of...

I don't think so. as I haven't been working since last year. So I don't have any income to show.....

Oh my GOd! now I am totally confused - what should it do then??
What would the best option in my case?? FLR(M) or Tier 1 dependent??

I already have 5+ years as first as tier1 independent. please help!!

hmmm I don't want to apply for FLR(M) and wait for another 5 years for ILR. I am happy to pay extra and get over with the procedure. according to this --http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/visas-immigration/working/tier1/general/settlement/dependants/ "Your partner can apply for settlement at the same...

I am bit confused about 5 year rule regarding settlement- do I need to spend 5 years in dependent visa to get ILR!!

If I apply for FLR(M) - then what are the options for settlement?
My husband will get ILR in march 2014 and then will apply for citizenship in march 2015.

Thanks for the link. I read it. It talk about only 319 C (h) - it doesn't say anything about 319 E which focuses on switch to ILR :(. From the posts and rereading new rule - I think, 1. ONe can definitely switch form other visa catagories to Tier 1/ Tier 2 dependent within UK. 2. And to switch from ...

I am not working at the moment that's why I want to become my husband's dependent. I was thinking to get ILR dependent visa as then march 2015 we all can apply for settlement together. Does anybody know about new rule - I read the new rule -here http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/sitecontent/document...
