Tier 1 General dependant visa expired

Post by UK2UK4U » Sat Feb 20, 2016 8:49 pm

Hi Team,

I am new member to forum and please guide me on the below scenario

I got ILR in Dec 2015 through 5 year Tier 1 general route (First grant from India - on 07 Jan 2011 extended in UK Dec 2012 valid until 07 Jan 2016). My wife joined me as PBS Tier 1 dependent in Jan 2014 ( Visa from India issued 30 Dec 2013 valid until 07 Jan 2016).She left to India in Aug 2015 to be with my in-laws during pregnancy.

1) Since her visa expired on 07 Jan 2016 and my wife and kid planning to join me in April 2016, please advise on the visa type i need to apply.

wife : Tier 1 dependent under PBS or visa for family of UK settled person/ Citizen. Does my wife will be eligible for ILR after 5 years in spite of her non-visa period from 07 Jan 2016 to 31 March 2016

2) which visa I need to apply for my kid born outside UK in Oct 2015

3) As my visa status has changed, does any child benefits apply to my kid.

Please direct me to the correct posts or advise me accordingly.

Regards

not really sure about benefits, but I would guess no is the answer as ur child was born outside uk and is still outside uk.
no ur wife's clock will be reset, as now she'll be applying under a different category. I guess u can apply an extension for her under tier1 dependant then yes her previous stay will be counted towards 5yrs. (Not sure whether u can apply tier1 dependant extension outside of uk)
