ILR for SWV dependant with time as student dependent
Posted: Sun Sep 07, 2025 8:16 pm
I am currently on a two-year Graduate visa, and my wife is on my dependant visa. One year has passed and one year remains. I am now switching to a Skilled Worker visa, and my wife will switch to being a Skilled Worker dependant when her current visa expires (in about a year).
Am I correct in understanding that when I complete 5 years on the Skilled Worker visa for ILR, my wife will also be able to apply with me, since she will have 5 years as my dependant (even 6 years — 4 years as a Skilled Worker dependant and 1 year as a Graduate visa dependant)?
I have seen similar posts about GTV, and I would really appreciate a comment regarding SWV. Thank you very much in advance.
