Re: Sponsor willing to provide COS but no allocation available for inside UK

Hi, I got the curtailment letter from Home office to leave the country dated 10th June. A licensed sponsor ready to provide COS but he doesn't have any allocation at the moment and the priority service is also not helping out(trying out daily). Since days are running, I'm more worried and I would l...

Re: ILR 10 years and Dependents

That does NOT apply to the long residence path to ILR. Under the long residence rules, you can leave with a valid visa and return within 6 months without issues.

The earliest date of ILR eligibility is first visa issue date + 5 years - 28 days
The date of application could be earlier: How to apply early and benefit from the date of the ILR decision ?

Re: ILR eligibility for dependants

The date of entry to the UK is irrelevant. The qualifying period counts from the first visa issue date for all of you. I assume you all got visas together, so you can all apply together

The BRP application can take up to 6 months, this has always been the case. The BRP card will also not going to be used from the end of the year as they will be phased out completely.

See: Information on eVisas as all BPRs will be phased out from 1st Jan 2025

Re: ILR I screwed up-my last extension type. This time I'm 2.5 years early and thought I was at 10 year mark

Under the 10-year route, any time spent under the family route will count so it does not matter if you were or are under the 5-year route or 10-year route, so any period leave granted via FLR(M) or FLR(FP) can be combined. It is only under the 5-year route that you need to have had 60 months under t...

Re: ILR - Long Residence - Dependent Child

Children do not have a min residence requirement and can settle when both parents settle. You apply using SET(LR) and after your ILR is granted, you will apply for the child using form SET(F). The child can stay under the current visa until expiry without any issues, regardless of your status.

No. You do NOT need any other reasons to stay in the UK. If you answer YES to that question on the form, you get a request to submit documents which will confuse you

Re: ILR Eligibility

You need to take the earliest date. Visa approval date in most cases is the same as the date on your visa sticker or BRP issue date. However, for administrative reasons, the date of your document could be a later date as a visa or BRP document cannot be backdated. So if your visa was approved last w...

Re: ILR for a Depedent Medical Doctor

"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...
