Hi
My son is on dependent visa (5 year family route) and living in UK. He is 18+ now and still dependend because of his univercity. I am confused about which form to use. Apply as a dependent 18+ Set F or set M
Thanks

SET(M)

1)Partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 5-year route
2)Parent of a child present and settled in the UK - 5-year route
3 Spouse of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
4 Civil partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
5 Unmarried partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
6 Same sex partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route

We were on a five year route . Which option is it?

Thanks

The child is applying on their own ? Why they did not settle with the other parent ?

Ihave ILR. 5 years ago we applied family route wife and son (who was under 18) came to london Since thanwe are all living in our family home London.
Last week my wife got her ILR. Now my son will apply. He is now 21 he is studying in uni and I am supporting him. He is the only one will apply. I got into set(m) there are 6 option which I gave in my previou mail but I could not decide which one to use. Thanks

Why didn't you apply for your son when your spouse applied? That would have been the simplest way to do it.

My son was a war during application. Cost wise there is no dfference since he is 18+ he will pay normal fee..
Also I will use most of the documents for my son. Is it adisadvantage?

My son was a war during application.

What??

Cost wise there is no dfference since he is 18+ he will pay normal fee..

The fee for ILR is the same for everyone, regardless of age. If he was under 18, it would still be the same fee as an adult.

Also I will use most of the documents for my son. Is it adisadvantage?

It would have been simpler to add him to your spouse's Set(M) form as a dependent. There was no need to apply for him separately.

You are right.. It could have been simple but he was a way. I dunderstant that I will use set(m). But in set(m) there no category option to cover this situation.I cant decide. here are the options
1)Partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 5-year route
2)Parent of a child present and settled in the UK - 5-year route
3 Spouse of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
4 Civil partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
5 Unmarried partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
6 Same sex partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route

Thanks

Meantime sorry about tthe type becauaw of google auto corrections I wanted to say My. son was a way now l just notice that sentence ended up as My son was in War.. Shocked

Hi I need urgent help;
I have ILR. 5 years ago we applied family route wife and son (who was under 18) came to london Since then we are all living in our family home London.
Last week my wife got her ILR. I missed to opportunity to apply son+wife together because he was not in UK during application Now my son will apply. He is 21 he is studying in uni and I am supporting him. In set(M) there are below 6 options which I could not decide which one to use.

1)Partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 5-year route
2)Parent of a child present and settled in the UK - 5-year route
3 Spouse of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
4 Civil partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
5 Unmarried partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route
6 Same sex partner of a person present and settled in the UK - 2-year route

Thnks in advance

Then SET(M) cannot be used. SET(F) is only for those below 18 years. I believe the only appropriate form is SET(O), as it covers other purposes not covered by other application forms

Thanks:

Thanks I've already check set(o). in Gov side you have the following

Tier 1 or Global Talent dependants
Tier 1 migrant
Skilled Worker, Tier 2 or International Sportsperson dependant
Skilled Worker, Tier 2 or International Sportsperson
Bereaved partner
Representative of an overseas business
UK ancestry
Global talent
Hong Kong British National (Overseas) (BN(O))
Domestic worker in a private household
Afghan Resettlement
Adult Dependent Relative (family route)
Other purposes or reasons not covered by other application forms
Which one is relevan for my adult son?

Thanks

Meantime I've just marked the option:
Adult Dependent Relative (family route)
I got the following:


You must only select this option if you have, or were last granted, permission as an adult dependent
relative, on the basis that you require long term personal care to perform everyday tasks due to age,
illness or disability. For further information, please read the guidance: Indefinite leave to remain if you
have family in the UK: Apply as an adult dependent relative (family visa) - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

I am going crazy. Thanks

VERY INTERESTING

I called Home office help line explained the situation Thsi was what I was told:

During the time of applying 5 (years ago) he was under 18(child) since both parents currently have ILR he can apply to citizenship?

This is interesting...Have you experiencse danything like this my case?

Only children born in the UK are entitled to do that !
Note that UKVI helpline is manned by third-party advisors who are known to provide inaccurate or incorrect advice !!!

No. There is no such entitlement to citizenship.
Children born outside the UK to non-British parents have NO entitlement to citizenship whatsoever, even if parents settle later in the UK.
Such a child must have ILR, at least one parent must be British and the other parent must at least be settled in the UK and then such a child could be registered as British via discretion. Adults (18+) can only naturalise after 12 months of holding ILR

Can he apply citizenship?

No he cannot. He needs ilr first and hold ilr for 12 months before he can apply for citizenship as he is over 18.

Hi Zimba:

I was given worn information on the help line of GOV 0300 790 6268.
I asked her whichILR form to use SET(m), SET (O)or SET(F) for 18+ son, spend last 5 years under famiy 5 years route. ALso told her that in any of the forms not sutible option for him. She said of no options because your son can apply citizenship straight away. Ridiculous...


Earlier on you told me to use set(o) even thougt it does not have suitable category option for use
and ask me to use the following option:

''Other purposes or reasons not covered by other application forms''

I will go with this am I right?

All you need to know is provided above !
He must apply for ILR first. Then he can apply to naturalise just like any adult 12 months after his ILR.
Again, the helpline will NOT provide accurate advice, as I explained

Thanks
My question was what form to use.. No where in Home Office says anything about which form to use for family route dependend 18+. This was what I need to know.
