Dear members & experts,

Apologies in advance if I am, may be, asking an oft-asked question. However, I would appreciate your kind help at this point.

I have ILR since 2018 through Tier 2 (General) route. My wife who arrived in UK in 2014 on PBS dependent route, is now eligible for applying ILR in UK.

My questions are as follows:

1. From what I have read, she needs to apply for ILR using SET (O) application, is this correct?
SET(O)

If 1. is correct then points 2 and 3 are completely throwing me off.

2: In the first part of the application there is a section called: The person you are joining or accompanyingg, which has a question: Which visa is Mr XYZ applying for or been granted?
In the options I was expecting to see ILR, but the only options I am getting is tier based visas, including, Tier 2 (General) that I previously had. What should I select there?
Answer: Tier 2 G

3: In the same section there is a question: If they have one, what is XYZs sponsor licence number?. I was not expecting this question as I am no longer sponsored, and on ILR. Again, what should I do with this question?
”IF” question

4. Absences from UK since 11 Jan 2018: She has been absent only for 36 days. Does she need to show any proof of that?
She only has absence limits on any leave that was granted after 11th Jan 2018. Lets say her last leave was granted on 24th Feb 2018 (assumption). She will only list absences after 24th Feb 2018. No proof needed

Will really appreciate some sort of input here.

Thanks.

K.

Thanks CULLINAN. That's brilliant.

Regarding point 4. does my wife need to show any proof of those absences; if yes what sort of proof is accepted?

• We just have one joint bank account, and can show the statements. From 2019 to 2020.

• Tenancy Agreement from 2016 to 2019 and property paper since 2019 + Mortgage statement from Nov 2020, would that be okay?

• Council Tax paper Bill from 2014 to 2018 & 2020. We are missing 2019 council tax bill - but have e copy from website (without council logo), will that work?
