Potential ILR Dependents

Post by dalaremal » Sat Jun 01, 2019 10:58 am

Hello respected members!

I have applied for ILR based on tier2 on 13 May 2019 and have got an appointment for super priority service on 10th June 2019. My wife and two kids (6 and 4 years old) came to this country in 2017 March as my dependents on tier2 General. Their dependent visa is still valid till September 2019.

Q1) While I will be on ILR, what category will my dependents be applying in? Will it be PBS Dependent extension or FLR M?

Q2) Does my wife need any English test to apply for any of the above-mentioned visas (PBS dependent extension or FLR M)? If yes, which one please?

Q3) As they have spent almost 2.6 years as my dependents, will this time period be counting towards their ILR? And

Q4) Will I be able to apply ILR for my kids (Born abroad) once I will be on ILR?

Your help is highly appreciated! Please!

Q1) While I will be on ILR, what category will my dependents be applying in? Will it be PBS Dependent extension or FLR M?
They apply for a Tier 2 Dependent extension before their visas expire. Don't switch to FLR(M) as it resets their ILR clock to zero.
Q2) Does my wife need any English test to apply for any of the above-mentioned visas (PBS dependent extension or FLR M)? If yes, which one please?
No, not for PBS Dependent extension.
Q3) As they have spent almost 2.6 years as my dependents, will this time period be counting towards their ILR? And
PBS Dependent extension will be a 3 years extension and once they have 5 years, they can apply for ILR. If you switch them to FLR(M), they start again from scratch and lose the time spent here already.
Q4) Will I be able to apply ILR for my kids (Born abroad) once I will be on ILR?
No. The children will follow the same route as your spouse and will only qualify for ILR when your spouse does.

Hello respected friends!

Now that I have received my ILR, only yesterday.

It was based on tier2 G. My mrs and two kids (5 and 4 years) will be applying for their visas in Sep 2019.

Currently they are on the dependent visa. They entered this country in march 2017.

My question to the respected members is:
can my kids (and not mrs) apply for ILR rather than extension visa this September? please!

No, PBS child dependents can only qualify and apply for ilr when the other parent without ilr qualifies.

Your soul is like outer space: so large and so mysterious!

I am sorry to ask, is this the relevant immigration rule? please!

2. (b) The applicant must be the child of a parent who has, or is at the same time being granted, indefinite leave to remain as:

2. (ii) The Relevant Points Based System Migrant or Appendix W Worker parent has and has had sole responsibility for the applicant’s upbringing, or
3. (iii) there are serious and compelling family or other considerations which would make it desirable not to refuse the application and suitable arrangements have been made for the applicant’s care, or
4. (iv) One parent is, at the same time, being granted indefinite leave to remain as a Relevant Points Based System Migrant or Appendix W Worker, the other parent is lawfully present in the UK or being granted leave at the same time as the applicant, and the applicant was granted leave as the child of a Relevant Points Based System Migrant under the Rules in place before 9 July 2012.

8. (h) All arrangements for the child’s care and accommodation in the UK must comply with relevant UK legislation and regulations.
9. (i) The applicant must not be in the UK in breach of immigration laws except that, where paragraph 39E of these Rules applies, any current period of overstaying will be disregarded.
Please note in the printed version of CM5829 these points appear in error numbered as an alternative version of 316D (iii) and (iv).

Hello and a very Warm Good Morning!

In the "evidence needed section" of the guidance, I can see

"The personal bank or building society statements should clearly show:
• the name of the main applicant and/or your name, or (for children only) the name of your other parent;"

As I am now on ILR, I am just wondering whose bank statement will it be, Mine or my wife's?

I am confused about this word "main applicant".

please!

For the 90 days maintenance funds, it can be either of your statements.

As this topic is in the ILR sub forum and not relevant if you are applying for PBS dependent extensions, I have moved it to the Tier 2 sub forum.

I am extremely thankful to you!

As my Mrs has not maintained the required money in her account for the previous 3 months so, I am assuming that using my bank statements should be fine?

Hello and good morning respected members!

I have got ILR based on 5 years route ( tier2) in June 2019. My wife and two kids (6 and 4 years old) came to this country in 2017 March as my dependents on tier2 General. Their dependent visa is still valid till 19th September 2019.

Q1) While I am on ILR, I am applying for their extension under PBS, could any of the respected member(s) share a checklist of mandatory documents please!

Q2) while I will be showing my bank statement for their maintenance, do I need a letter or affidavit type of document which gives the authority to my dependent that they have got access to my funds?

The online form tells you what to submit. You also need 2 years evidence of cohabitation in both your names. The checklist doesn't mention this but the guidance notes does. Suggest read the guidance notes.
Q2) while I will be showing my bank statement for their maintenance, do I need a letter or affidavit type of document which gives the authority to my dependent that they have got access to my funds?
No. The online form gives you consent forms you need to sign.
