Hi all,
I want to pose a question as I could not find answer to this.
I would like to ask that if I have ILR and my wife is still on Tier 2 dependent (I know she has to stay here to complete 5 years residency before she can apply for ILR) and if I get a job offer from outside UK can I live outside the UK while my wife stay in the UK to complete her 5 years?

On what basis did you get ILR, PBS route or 10 years long residence?

She is dependent on you, therefore her visa status is dependent on you being in the UK.

What date did she enter the UK as a PBS Dependent?

When does her 5 years complete?

Her status to remain in the UK is wholly dependent on you being in the UK.
