Dear Damanisshallo
I got my ILR on 14 Oct 2013 as a 10 years route Student Visa. Now I would like to apply for my wife and son who both came UK on April 2006(7 years in UK).Can you please tell me which application form do they have to fill, their recent visa ( Tier 4 student dependent ) expire on April/2014.My wife got ESOL level 2 certificate in speaking and listening.
1.Does she have to do again give English test because of new rule?
2.Do I have to work before apply for my wife and son?
3.Do I have to earn 22,000 per annum.?

Thank you in advanced
Bhupal

If she has been a PBS dep since before July 2012, she will need to apply for FLR(M) and then when this is granted SET(M) by virtue of immigration rule 287(a)(i)(d). I would do this via a PEO ASAP. For FLR(M) the English requirement is A1 and for SET(M) it is B1 plus LIUK. There is no specific financial requirement, rather, adequate maintenance and accommodation.

Thanks Amber

Thanks Amber,if they apply by post how long does it take for their FLRM visa to get and can my wife and son(11 years) old can apply a child benefit and other benefit.

Same day decision at a PEO. As you have ILR, you can claim child benefit and jointly claim tax credits, with your spouse.

Dear thanks for your reply.But I asked my solicitor,they said untill my wife and son get ILR dependent,they should not apply any public benefit,Is this right.Also they said if they apply benefit now in their my previous student dependent visa,there might be problem when they apply my ILR dependent(FLRM) form?Can you please clarify more detail?

thanks

Your solicitor is talking rubbish. You can claim child benefit in your name and tax credits in joint names.

Thank you Amber.
One question is that my wife and son is going to apply a FLR(M) form as my ILR dependent at PEO,but on FLR(M) form I saw in PEO office form cost £953 for my wife but what can I do for my son(10 Years old).Can I include with my wife application £1761 with one dependent or also my son and my wife they both have to pay £953rach(Total £1906).

2.2 - yes
3.17 - no, unless you've had other partners
You complete 7B rather than 7A

Explain on a cover letter you're applying under part 8 as had PBS dep leave before July 2012.

Thanks Amber for your help.God bless you.

Child benefit in your names, tax credits in joint. Naturalise one year after ILR subject to meeting the other standard requirements.

Thanks Amber.Have a good weekend.
