Dear all,

Thank you in advance for your help with my query. I submitted my first application for a spouse visa (limited leave to remain) on 04th August 2015 and got my visa granted on the same date by using the premium appointment service. I then applied for my further leave to remain under the same route on 05th February 2018 and got my visa granted on 19th March 2018. My current further leave to remain expires on 16th October 2020.

Should I submit my application for indefinite leave to remain on 07th July 2020 (i.e. 28 days before the completion of 5 years on a spouse visa)? If I go for the premium appointment, could I book an appointment for that date (if available)? Thank you once again for your help with this.

You should aim to submit your application only when eligible.

Thank you so much for your reply. I understand that I will be eligible for ILR upon completion of 60 months (5 years) under the spouse visa route, which will be on 03rd August 2020, but can submit my application 28 prior to that date, 07th July 2020. Is it correct?

Many thanks again!
