10 years long residence - what about dependants?

[dj.akin1]

Hi Vinny,

I was on Tier 1 General Visa and now ILR though the 10 years long residence. My spouse was my dependant on the Tier 1 General Visa and will qualify for ILR on the 10 years route next year December.

But now that I am ILR;

1. Is she till my dependant?

2. Is there any category that she can apply for ILR now instead of waiting till next year?

Regards
DJ
