Main Immigrant eligible for ILR, dependants visa expires before required completion time

Hi All,
I am on tier 2 General and eleigible for ILR in February 19. My wife completes her 5 year period in Dec 19 but her PBS dependant visa expires in Aug 19.
Q: Can she apply ILR with me in February ?
Or
Q: Can she apply ILR in August before her PBS dependant leave expires
Or
Is there another way, such as, apply via post in August, hoping that her application doesn’t get entertained until Novemeber (28 days before 5 years period) to complete her 5 years period. ILR postal application takes 6 months in processing/decision anyway.
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Regards

Is there any solution or will someone again just write “No” and move on ?

You need to apply for an extension for your dependents if they don't meet the ILR requirements.
What date was their first pbs dependent visa issued??
If you don't provide all the really important details, you can't expect lengthy responses or advice.

No offence but your questions were answered to help you get cracking on reading the guidance for PBS dependants and to do a quick search on this forum and in fact google would show hundreds that been in ur situation in this year alone and apply the research to your situation.
Your case is not complex.
Further to the moderators advice
If you are getting ILR based on Tier2 then ur dependants need to extend their visa as a pbs dependant near to the expiry of their current visa.
The standard decision time is 6 months but HO tends to take decisions in 2 months more or less.
Read on Varying Leave.
Dependant may apply within 28 days of the qualifying date ie 5th anniversary.
But a bit more info is necessary to be precise and may save you fees.
Once you’ve done the research it’ll be far clearer and you’ll confident with the application.
Please don’t hesitate to revert back.
Moving on..
