ILR for spouse & dependent - date query
Posted: Thu Apr 17, 2025 8:10 am
Good morning,
We are coming to the end of our five year spouse visa route with dependent (was aged 13 on arrival, now 18).
They entered the UK on July 6th 2020. We've only left the country once since that date, for approx 30 days (holiday).
The eVisa expires in October 2025.
I am hoping I can get some clarity on potential dates for submitting our application for ILR.
Am I correct in saying the earliest we could apply would be approx 8th June 2025?
However, my wife wants to go back to her home country this summer if possible BEFORE we apply however, so what would be the latest we could apply for ILR - Early October 2025?
Many thanks as always for any help / advice!
