ILR Eligibility for Dependent
Posted: Mon Nov 26, 2012 10:33 am
Hi All,
I am trying to apply for my ILR (under Tier 1) and need just some help to understand the eligibility criteria of my wife (dependent)
Just a short summary of my situation -
1. I am currently under Tier 1 visa valid until October 2013 and my wife is a dependent and has visa validity till the same day.
2. I have completed my 5 years in the UK in August 2012. However I have been waiting for my wife to complete 2 years in the UK before she is eligible.
3. My wife entered the UK on 28th December 2010 - so she should become eligible in 2 years time from that day.
4. I have got an appointment for 7th December to apply for my ILR (Set(O)).
The UKBA website mentions that we can apply for visa 28 days before eligibility, so can I apply for my wife's ILR status on 7th December?
Any help in this matter would be appreciated.
