spouse visa 5 years route help

Post by wrony13 » Wed Jun 21, 2023 3:19 pm

i guys,please help
My wife applied for her visa extension last Sept 2022,she was on 5 years route,i have ILR,when she applied i was on 24k years and provided 6 months pay slips and she passed english test A1 According to my solicitor and provided certificate too,we tok priority service but we received decision that i dont meet salary requirements and she didnt provide english test certificate too and they put her in 10 years route.my solicitors requested reconsideration nothing happened till now.
Of Course it was my solicitor fault.
bank statement was provided, salary last 6 months was fluctuating as follows
March2022 gross pay 772
April 2022 gross pay 836
May 2022 gross pay 1976
June2022 gross pay 1976
July 2022 gross pay 1976
August2022 gross pay £2052
So according to HO website and my solicitor if i calculate 6 months total as 9588÷6=1598x12=19176 .
egarding my above matter i have been trying to get things sorted with my solicitor but he has been ignoring till now so far,so i have decided to make a formal complain about him.
in the mean time i spoken another solicitor how can i sort this situation out as i dont want to go for 10 years long route,he said apparently i can make a new application with all the right documents and it will bring me back to 5 years route and first 2.5 years will be counted as well so im losing max 1 year which is this current year .
so my wife came november 2019,if we apply again and she get visa in 5 years route then she can apply for ilr in november 2025 if she get new visa by november this year,is it correct?
i thought i will double check with you guys before making another mistake.
please help.

she passed english test A1
That wasn't enough for her extension anyway, unfortunately, unless she was given an exemption.

You may have to pass a higher CEFR level if you want to stay in the UK after 2.5 years. What you need to do depends on what CEFR level you passed for your first visa.

If you passed:

level A1, you’ll need to pass at least level A2 in speaking and listening
I cannot comment on salary requirements adequately (someone else will do it for me), but I'm not sure how your solicitor let the English language requirement slide.

No. As she was put on a 10 year route, her ILR clock is now reset. She would have to spend 5 continuous years on 5 year route to be eligible for ILR via this route (so if she gets it this year, in 2027)

UPD: you were already told all this in detail and more in the other thread - post2113722.html#p2113722
Not sure why do you need any additional advice if you were told what's wrong beforehand.
If topics can please be merged, would be lovely!
