Don’t pay the IHS surcharge as ur spouse has valid leave.
You were advised earlier that it would fall for refusal as the 5 year clock was reset.
Do make a formal complaint to home office.
This application should not have been decided.

Yes you can ignore this and travel without fear as she has extant leave.
You should definitely complain from the beginning to the end as it’s turned out to be very costly for you. This whole process is very overwhelming and not everyone has knowledge of such forums.
An opportunity could have been afforded to provide correct English Lang doc instead of putting her on 10 year route.
On the five year route you should have atleast been allowed to add the entry clearance time.
Since she was not eligible for ILR at this point, the caseworker could have return the application or asked you what you wanted to do with it.
State the amount of money you have spent to date on lawyers n HO fees and the considerable mental stress you’ve been through..
So they should either grant your wife ILR by virtue of living in the UK 60 months or atleast refund you the ILR fee.
It may or may not help but at least you gave feedback for them to improve on their services.

Does the refusal letter allow an appeal or a reconsideration?

Hi aman the refusal letter says a failure to pay Immigration healthsure charge will mean your application limited leve to remain will be treated invalid. We will not be able to grant you limited live to remain and your application fees not be refunded. You will not be able to appeal this decision and you may be liable for removal from the uk...

Your application has been considered limited live to remain under the immigration rules including the partner route continued within appendix FM. As you have parantal responsibility with children who are British citizens we are satisfied that you would meet the requirements of paragraphs R-LTRP.1.1 (a) (b) and (d) if appendix FM (10 year route) because of your family life. Once you have paid the IHS your application will be treated as a vaild application for limited leave to remain and you will be granted 30 months limited leave to remain in the uk

As you have been only previously Been granted 30 spouse under paragraph D-LTRP.1.1 you fail to meet the requirements of E-ILRP.1.3 of Appeindex FM in order to qualify for settlement you must have completed a continuous period of at less 60 months in the route that you were last granted under. Although you enter the uk as spouse you were later granted leave to remain on the basis of your family and private life (10 year route then you were put back to 5 year route. The 5 year route need to be completed continuously.

The refusal is correct.

You went from the 5 year route initially, then to the 10 year route and then you switched back to the 5 year route on 11 October 2017. This means ILR based on the 5 year route can only be applied for in 2022, once you have 60 months continuous residence under the 5 year route rules.

You cannot combine the 10 year route time and the 5 year route time to make up the qualifying time for ILR on Set(M) 5 years residence. There is a reason you cannot and that is because the 10 year route and 5 year route have different rules.

The 10 year route was given us because we send them a1 English test instead of AS the guidence version 2016 stated at the time of application you can still use a1 certificate if it was accepted as per of previous application and in their guidance it says if u sat in the test before 2015 you do not have a welt electronic number so u can still attach a1 my wife sit on a1 on 2013 so according to their guidance note and the application form we fill clearly stated if u sit before 2015 in a1 so it will accepted we never fill fp application we meet income requirement etc

We was not given appeal right more on when we received dicision within one month Solictor advice is to do A2 test and apply again so within one month we pay the feees and going to same day premium service to get the visa and they granted we was put back on partner route and the letter never stated our clock is reset this is misleading they should inform application your time start from 0 how do we know that no policy or rules or guidance tell this we this we have apply biz our time period of 5 years was completed so we apply I I m so stressed they could have given us our dees back it was not our fault.

The letter would have stated under what rules you were granted the visa. As you used a solicitor, they should have explained this to you as well as the immigration rules are very clear on this point.
so we apply I I m so stressed they could have given us our dees back it was not our fault.
You don't get your fees back if an application is refused. It is always the applicants responsibility to make sure they meet the requirements of the application they are making.

Members are not professionals to draft letters for you. We are all unpaid volunteers.

There is no point complaining about the ilr refusal as the residual is correct. You do not have 60 months continuous residence on the 5 year route under appendix FM.

Oh that’s brilliant!
Can you share the process. When and where did you send the letter and to whom?
Please share the draft without personal details.
If you don’t mind my asking how much did you pay?
