I have been going through other helpful topics in the forum, wanted to cross check that its Set (O) is the right forum in scenario, where

a) Primary member holding ILR through Tier 2 General visa route
b) Dependent member holding PBS Dependent visa LTE and LTR (5 years)

Please could you help with confirming that Set(O) is the correct form for this scenario.

Thank you, in advance.

Thank you, for the response. So I can submit the ILR application from 20 May 2014 till Visa expiry date? As 17-Jun-19 as Visa vignettes start date (minus 28 days = 20 May.

Many Thanks

Yes, but note that that helps you to determine the earliest date of ILR eligibility.
The date you apply is not very important. You simply need to ensure on the date of the decision, you are eligible for ILR.

See: Applicants can benefit from the date of the ILR decision

Thank you, for the eligibility and decision date clarifications.

I have filled the Set (O) form, could you please help with suggestions on the responses as it seems bit confusing.

Q1. Select a category in which you are applying for indefinite leave to remain. <Answer> I have selected "Skilled Worker, Tier 2 or International Sportsperson dependant" <Query> Is it right selection as depdendant word is confusing if its for Tier 2 PBS dependant as well?

Q2 Which visa is Mr <husband> applying for or been granted? <Answer> I have selected "Tier 2 (General) visa" <Query> as husband is already on ILR is this the right selection?

Q3 Do you have one of these reference numbers for Mr <husband>? <Answer> Selected "Yes, I have their VAF number" <Query> Selected "Yes, I have their VAF number" as option in form to fill VAF/GWF but mandatory message checking Home Office number/VAF/GWF hence used Vignette VAF from husband stamp 6 years ago on expired passport, is this right usage?

Q4 Sponsor licence number? <Query> Should this be old license number of Organization used for Husband's ILR?

Q5 Does the period of stay on which this application was based include any leave granted since 11 January 2018? <Answer> Yes <Query> Assuming this is correct answer as she got visa in 2019 and all absences are after 2019, please can you confirm as question is open ended

Q6 Have you had any absences from the UK during any leave granted since 11 January 2018? <Answer> Yes <Query> Assuming this is correct answer as she got visa in 2019 and all absences are after 2019, please can you confirm as question is open ended

Q7 Do you have a degree that was taught in English? <Answer> Yes <Query> I have Ecctis certificate number, verified the degree level but not clear which option to use to fill in the form and refer. one related question in form is "What will you use to prove your degree taught in English?" with possible answer degree or transcripts/letter.

Q8 Do you or anyone else who is part of this application receive any public funds? <Query> Though Husband is already on ILR and eligible for public funds but not leveraging so assuming No as answer

Many Thanks in advance.

1. Tier 2 route no longer exists. That option is correct
2. It is correct
3. No need to provide any of those numbers
4. Correct
5,6. If you were issued a visa after 11 Jan 2018, then you should answer YES and declare absences since the visa issue date.
7. It should be a degree.
8. No is correct

No, it is not. You need a selection of documents from 3 to 4 different sources, spread evenly for every 3 to 4 months either in joint names or addressed to each of you individually, covering the last two years.
Absences count - In last 5 years, total days outside UK are 215, but no 180 within 12 months, hope thats fine? do I need to submit any letter for absences?
Absence is fine. No absence letter is required for dependents.

Thank you CR001 for the prompt response, really helpful.

- Hope adding joint council bill, recent join utility bill, old individual utility bill and inidividual bank statements be sufficient, could you suggest
- For english language proof, I have ecctis certified document and reference number, but no place in form to link like one can link Life in uk reference number, please could you suggest.


Many Thanks

thank you AmazonianX, uploaded same documents on the site.

In uploading section:

- Under 'Declaration signed by Mr <husband> to confirm consent for the Home Office to request verification checks' - should I upload part 2 signed and scanned document of consent form?

- Under 'Consent form for the Home Office to request verification checks on Mr <husband> for joint accounts or third party support' - should I upload part 3 signed and scanned document?

- Under 'Evidence of Mrs <wife> immigration status in the UK' and 'Current Biometric Residence Permit for Mrs <wife>' - current BRP only to be uploaded?

- Under 'All previous passports, travel documents or national identity cards that you have used to travel to or remain in the UK' - do we need to upload previous BRP or any other document under this section?


Thank you, in advance.

Thank you, in advance.
Candidly, it is of not much import under which section you upload what. Just endeavour to upload ALL supporting documents.

Yes, a particular document can serve the purpose of meeting more than one requirement. Scan and upload passport pages containing immigration history covering the period this application is based on, BRP already uploaded.
