Continuing as tier1 dependent

Hello,

I have been naturalised as British Citizen and my wife is currently on Tier-1 dependent visa which is valid till Dec 2020. She don't have any intention of applying for ILR . Can she keep extending her tier-1 dependent visa after it expires in Dec 2020. I Know rules might change in future but just wanted to understand as per current rules.

Thanks
Ram

Yes as it stands now but the route will likely be closed at some point as most Tier 1 G dependent will have qualified for ILR at some point soon.

Out of interest, why does he not wish to apply for ILR?

Thanks for your reply.

The reason is English language. As it is mandatory to have English speaking evidence and to pass the life in UK test it would be very difficult for her to clear the exam as she can't read and speak English. I know we have time on our side so hoping that she can improve on her English but it's going to be tough. That's the reason I was interested in knowing the options to continue her stay in UK.

Are there any other options?

Thanks
